Way Too Hot

We are one third of the way through Summer and the sidewalk is hot enough that one could fry eggs on it, although I never have seen anyone do that. As if the heat from the weather isn't enough, I came out of my cool bedroom this morning and entered into the kitchen, also known as the gates of Hades. Must have been another twenty degrees hotter in that kitchen than it was outside, my lovely wife was cooking spaghetti and adding fuel to the fire.
I will be the first to admit that I am as skinny as a stick. Even though I am that thin I am sweating in this heat like there is no tomorrow. I cannot imagine how much tougher it must be for those with some extra baggage to carry around.
If you are one of these people with a few extra pounds to get rid of, don't wait for the pounds to be sweat off, do something about it. Surely you will enjoy a lighter, slimmer, less sweatier you. But, what are the safest diet pills that work?
Well, my friends, you could spend countless hours being bored to death on the internet doing some heavy duty research of your own or you could be smart and save all that time by visiting the site that has done the research for you.
Once you have determined which diet pills are the ones for you, I urge you to take that information and discuss it with your doctor. The doctor will know if those pills will do anything detrimental to your personal medical situations. Better safe than sorry!
Shed those unwanted pounds and then get yourself outside in your favorite bathing suit or shorts and tee shirt and enjoy the lovely warmth of Summer.

Too Hot Now?

Summer is here, no doubt about it. Temperatures here in Southern California are soaring, here in the desert it has been over the century mark the past few days as we head for the heat of the season.
Think it isn't hot here in the rest of Southern California as well? Think again:

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Southern California commuters can now say they've seen it all, including a naked man in the middle of Interstate 405. California Highway Patrol Officer Monica Posada said the first call came at the height of rush-hour Thursday - a man with no clothes was in the center divide of the freeway. Then came a rush of calls reporting the man in the buff.

Long Beach police detained the 21-year-old man and gave him a mental health evaluation.

Police said he was taken into custody and will be charged with misdemeanor indecent exposure.

Lazy Days of Summer

Summer is here. It is hot here in the desert, very, very hot. I like the heat as opposed to the harshness of the Winter. Winter is too painful for people with arthritis. The heat of Summer is better suited for those of us with arthritis or other painful joints.
The problem with Summer is, for me, the beginning of the weather shift. On one hand I am happy that it is getting warmer. On the other hand however I am lazy. I don't want to do anything in this heat but sleep. Just sitting here at the computer is a lot of work at times. I have work to do but I just don't care, I'd rather be lazy lol
I realize that it is just the weather pattern shifting from one exteme to another and it is a phase that will pass. In the meantime I shall force myself to sit here and do my work. I cannot make any money if I don't.

Too Hot?

As I write this entry it is a lovely 97 degrees outside. There is a slight breeze coming through an open window but it is not that cool of a breeze. It's okay though, I have been waiting for this lovely weather all Winter.
Unfortunately my computer has not been waiting expectantly for this weather. Yesterday, which was cooler than today, the computer got too hot. The poor fans inside were running long and hard so I finally decided to shut it down and let the processor cool off a little. Imagine my surprise when, a few minutes later, I turned the computer back on and it refused to start! I pulled the plug, took the side panel off and left it wide open for a brief period of time. Poor thing was way too hot.
I am waiting today to see if it overheats again. I have the side panel ajar to let more air flow into the case. I do not want the computer to melt from all that heat!
If this continues I shall have to make some changes here. I am thinking a small fan aimed directly at the processor should do the trick. I imagine I can pick one up at Walmart cheaply enough.
I'll have to do something. It is only the beginning of June, Summer is not even officially here, and I know that the desert is not going to get any cooler in July or August.
I may like the warmth but my computer obviously does not.

Chilling Outside

The weather is finally looking nice outside, sunny and warm. Except, of course, for the wind that blows through the valley during the Springtime. It may look warm but once you step outside and that wind hits you will go back inside and find a sweater or a jacket. But, Summer is coming soon and then people where I live will wish there was a cool breeze coming down from the mountains.
But, it is that time of year to think about kicking back, chilling, relaxing outside on your patio or deck. Whether it is just your family or a few friends over for a get together there is just something nice about being outside in the warm weather. It's also barbecue season and that puts more and more folks outside as well. But, once the meal is cooked, you have to be able to sit somewhere. How's your patio furniture?
With the nice weather and the thoughts of great barbecued meals comes the time to think about the patio furniture. Is it old and weather beaten? Will it stand up to another year of get togethers? Face it, it is time for some new outdoor furniture!
Whether you are looking for simple patio furniture or benches to something more stylish and uptempo, you have to check out this site. Heck, they even have Tiki huts if you want to really look spectacular. (Imagine throwing an island themed party when you have a hut like that!)
You can always add a little romance to your patio life with an outdoor fireplace. Get nice and cozy out there once you've sent the kids to bed. This site has so many nice things, heck, let your imagination run wild.
Get ready for the outside. Summer is almost here!

Strange Spring

Today is a little on the cool side, yet yesterday was almost like summer, with temperatures in the high 80's. Why can't Mother Nature make up her mind already?LOL
Maybe it will warm up again around noon.I hope so,because I am not a cool weather person! I like it hot, that's why I like the desert. Although, I won't be shocked if in the summertime I complain about the heat.I have noticed that with every passing year I get less comfortable with the heat. Odd how that happened.
I've lived in this desert for the better part of forty-odd years. I hated the heat when I first moved here,but after a summer or two, I was used to it and then I grew to love it. But, now that I am older (57) I am going backwards, to where the heat seems to much for me. I guess the solution would be to just become a nudist and let it all hang out and get myself an all over tan LOL
