Can you send some of that warm weather here? We've had unseasonable rain all Spring. It usually stops raining in early April and doesn't come back until November-ish. I'm tired of it and ready for sunshine!

Oh, yes, Iowa has the heat and humidity, too. I hate summer.Can't stand the heat and w/ the humidity too high, it has made me sick at times. Last summer wasn't so bad. Used the AC just a few days. Best summer I can remember in my 80+ yrs. Give me winter if I have to choose. Can always put on enough to keep warm, but it's darn hard to take off enough to stay cool. Wouldn't that clear the town. LOL

And another thing - the bugs in summer. I never get dive-bombed in the winter when I go outside! lol

Today was not bad... still was in the high 80's... not sure what tomorow will be... Still feeling a bit under the weather... my tummy still bothers me... I'm not sure why. I'm going to go lie down and hope I feel better tomorrow.

Here in beautiful southern California, it's been in the 60s and 70s all the time I've been here. I'm loving it!

Hope you feel better soon. We are in winter mode here...quite chilly but the woodbaskets are full and the fire set ready for tonight. I much prefer the cooler weather, and I really hate airconditioners (we have ceiling fans). Don't forget to check your filters are really clean, or replace them if they get too old. It's such an easy thing to forget, and you can get quite bad respiratory problems if it isn't done regularly.

Earthwalker, thank you for the tips. Really good idea. :-)

We had 6+" of snow for Mother's Day!! By this last Monday, the 24th, it was 90+ (warmer than Las Vegas!) It's no wonder that everyone has sinus trouble around here!

Today isn't too bad... I'm feeling alright today...

I get headaches when I get too hot and I live in Texas. A/C is not an option here. I usually set the A/C to about 79/80F. Below that I get too cold. I moved here from Michigan and don't miss the winters there.
