hot, hot and more hot

The weather in central Arkansas has been sweltering lately. Ugh. I’m not a fan of heat and humidity. I daydream of moving back to where there are mountains with tree lines and snow on top all year round, where the temperatures during the day are pleasant and cool off at night, and where wearing a sweatshirt with shorts and hiking boots is perfectly acceptable.

I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that God has a plan and a reason for us to live in central Arkansas. I also know that wherever God wants us is where we want to be. So, while I do long for a cooler climate ~ and trust me, I remind God of that probably more often than I should ~ I’m content to remain indoors where there’s air conditioning, and Sonic slushies are my best friend. ( Nothing takes the ugh out of a hot, humid, miserable day like an orange cream slushy! :) )

    The heat index in Mobile has been over 107 with 100% humidity! I feel your sweltering pain! The dog doesn’t even want to go outside to potty!

    LOL Neither does Jake, our 7 year old black Lab. Chloe (the puggle puppy we were “fostering”) loved it outside, the hotter the better, but she was so little that I never left her outside for very long. She dug a nice cool hole under the deck and would crawl in there for shade, even when I was only leaving her outside for 5 to 10 minutes.

    It’s ok with me that the dog doesn’t want to go out to play ~ it’s too hot to chase the ball, and we don’t have his pool set up yet. ;)

    @ Jen – the great thing about Mobile is that a quick drive will have you near the water and usually a great breeze ;) .

    I’m in north Alabama and the heat is not that bad if I get in the shade a while and enjoy the hammock or picnic table. A great bonus of the heat is that if I make the kids stay out in it then the air conditioner can be turned up higher and still feel amazingly cold. :D
