    That's pretty warm!

    But I love summer! We haven't had too many really hot days this year.

    I just hate the cold and snow.

    Maybe we could all have a happy medium. That would be nice.

    Oh No! I can handle the heat better than the cold! No flowers, no critters, no going to town whenever I want. Winter means snow and my truck is horrible on the snow. Shoveling..no...no...no...I'd rather mow, weed, and sweat.

    I've been ready for a month, but I know I'll be complaining when snow comes. Never happy unless it's 65 degrees.

    I love, love, love winter! I wish it were longer. I know, I'm sick but I love the shorter days when we're in earlier with less yard work, ballgames, etc. It means more time to relax and I have so much more time for sewing. We don't get a lot of snow so it's not as bad here as it is for a lot of you.

    I keep saying you can always put on more cloths but there is only so much you can take off before the cops come to get you!!

    In the winter, I can put more clothes on. I can only strip so far in the summer. They require us to be fully clothed at work
    :-D & the a/c isn't always very cool. I agree, I don't have to shovel rain. :-D

    Everyone is going to hate me. I turned on my air conditioner today for a half hour or so, but turned it off when it got comfortable. My cat was lying in the opened door with screen locked, basking in the sunlight. The back door was also open with its screen locked so the two cats couldn't get out. The nice, fresh breeze was blowing out the old air and the house smells nice now.

    Spring and summer here are kinda confused this year, but the gardens and orchards around are bursting with fruits and nuts. Not too unbearably hot here, but August is still to come.
