The corn is too cute. Love the thread on the sewing machine. And both patriotic cards are over the top. You all push the car high

My, my, "name your poison day" - !!! Gorgeous flag day cards...& the sewing machine is so beautifully done, I love it.

Miz Melly, your card will be mailed tomorrow ASAP - it's ready, it's done, and it's going out come hell or high water.
Vacation + houseguests + indecision do not a swift card make...so sorry for the delay.
Here's a hint: my card is burning, like your weather there in AZ!

MizMelly

I'll be looking for it!! The "burn" is a little less than it was earlier in the week, only 113 today!! We'll be a tad below 110 by Wednesday!!

wow, i can't even imagine temps that high. how do u protect yourself?

Well, as far as tolerating the heat, to a certain extent, you get used to it. The rest of the time is spent hibernating indoors with A/C. Some homes have what we call a piggy-back system of a swamp cooler and A/C. I wish I had the swamper, although they are a pain to take care of every year. In June when the heat is high and the humidity and dewpoint aren't, a swamp cooler works great. Not so much in July and August when it's imperative to switch over to A/C.

We "only" hit 109 here today in the PNW! Days like today, I don't miss my old job at all (maintenance electrician). With my new job (not electrician, but still "in the field") I don't have to work outside as often, and when I do, it's normally in short bursts.

Growing up, we didn't have ac, so we would set up a little three or four foot tall pool in the yard and pretty much live in it all summer. I was a tow-head so my hair would turn a nice shade of green.

Loving all the cards this month. I like to see how each person interprets a day and all the different ideas and creative outcomes.
