Me, too.
Not Me!!!!!!! I am bottling this weather and am selling it come January and February, gonna buy fabric with the hot weather that is in those jars and bottles and will sit all winter in the house and enjoy sewing!!!!! I figure God knows what He is doing, I'll just let Him do his thing and I will enjoy every hot, humid, muggy, humidity-sloshing day, because I know He is going to dump on us with winter!!!!!! When my husband was really sick (twice) (Leukemia and Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma), I prayed that he would be all right. I prayed and told God I would never complain about anything anymore because my problems were zilch compared to what my husband was going through. Well, guess what? God heard me! And guess what else? I don't complain anymore, at all, one bit! Hot, cold, wet, dry. There is a purpose for everything! And guess what else? My husband was cured of Leukemia (1985) and is cancer free from Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (2005). Can't complain on that!!!!!!!
Enjoy the day, and get those jars and bottles out! Edie
I'd have to say I do appreciate your healthy attitude on the weather. It has been a scorcher and lots of flooding going on here from down pours, But I too keep thinking of how loooooooong and brutal our winter was last year. (This helps me to appreciate it just a tiny bit!

Yep. My inlaws are visiting from FL and they are enjoying the cool, but we had hoped to take them to see the Gorge and maybe the rose garden in Portland but its POURING rain right now.

And I too, am dying for my tomatoes!

Some, but more like spring. Today it is raining again and they are calling for rain all week. I would gladly share with those of you in Texas and other parts of the nation that are currentl under drought conditions.

I spent the weekend at a friends cabin for a sewing weekend in her quilt room. She has a walk out basement with a tile floor. The windows were left open Saturday night and the humidity was so bad the floor was covered in water. They had to mop it up and it was maybe an inch deep. We are 1 number off for setting the record for the highest humidity. I don't ever was to be this hot/humid again!!!
