Too Hot Too Fast

I read this cartoon this morning as I was reading the paper after breakfast and just knew that I would have to post it in my blog today. For those of you who do not know it, Kathleen always wears two pair of glasses and the ones that are not on her nose are usually on her head and often times she cannot find them.

Our neighbor's son stopped by this morning after I had finished eating and asked for suggestions as her neighbors on the other side of her were really noisy and she was not sleeping well. We talked for a while and I gave him one of the guys cell phone number.

After he left I went outside and dug out some blackberries that were growing just on the other side of the fence. Andrea, Toni and Brandon came over for a while this morning and so I went inside and visited with them for a while, but after about a half an hour I went back outside to finish what I had started.

As I was going inside again Kathleen was coming out with Brandon as they were getting ready to leave. So after cleaning up I went out front to say good bye to everyone. Then I sat in my chair for a while to rest up as I had gotten really hot while working outside. I am not sure what the temperature was today but it was getting close to ninety degrees.

I did not get much more done today as it was just too hot to do much outside and I was tired enough that I just kind of wanted to veg out. It is supposed to be in the ninety's for the next few days, but my body is not ready for that warn a temperature just yet. It usually takes a while gradually building up to high temperatures before I can handle it very well; and even then I do not usually do too well.

This would have been a good time to be at the coast, except neither Kathleen nor I have felt really that well.
