Wow, we survived our 102 degree heat lasting 5 days! That was crazy. Set some wild records I know that. The animals and I tried to stay indoors all week, but last night it finally cooled down so we could actually have the windows open. We have a portable A/C unit that I had in our bedroom and it kept the room at about 78 degrees. At least we were able to sleep at night. Thank goodness we don't have little ones to have to deal with anymore. Kudos to all you out there who do and managed to keep your heads. I know Tiff probably had hers in the pool. Unfortunately we had taken ours down after everyone left. I did manage to run to Barnes & Noble and grab some books to read all day long, while drinking enormous amounts of ice water. We should have all headed to Charlie & Mauricia's. They have air conditioning!!!! Had a great time with Shana on our Walk for Life weekend. Makes you stop and think how lucky we are to be healthy. Tracey's doctor found no recurrance of cancer on her cervix this week, but is sending her for a mammogram next week. Keep your fingers crossed. She and I will leave in 13 days. Yikes, time flies. Jeanie will be taking leave before she leaves for her "vacation", so she can spend time with the boys. We also found out that we'll be moving the boys into a new house in November. It will still be base housing, and only a couple blocks away from where they live now. Exciting for us all. Have a great weekend out there.

  1. We did indeed have the boys (and other drop-ins) in the pool a lot this last week. Thank goodness for your portable unit in the bedroom! Nothing worse than trying to sleep in this heat. So what books did you read? Any I should add to my list? Proud of all of you that did the Walk for Life! Maybe I'll be around to join you all next time. Yeah for Tracey and keeping my fingers crossed! Really only 13 more days? Wow! Time flies.
