It's funny. Just last week, I was bragging to my aunt about how my body has adjusted so well to living in Kansas. When I was young, I despised the heat. I would avoid outdoor places during the summer. I was one of those kids that flushed immediately upon stepping foot outside when it was above 70°. I was going on and on about how I actually enjoy the summer heat these days, and I was anxiously awaiting the REAL HEAT to come...
Yeah, I'm wallowing in the irony.
It's been hovering in the high 90's all week, and we've clearly surpassed the 100° mark with the heat index. Apparently, it's breaking news around here...
We've had a relatively low-key week, with Sassy on the mend, and all. Yesterday, we went to the library for a magic show. As far as I'm concerned, the only thing magic about it was its conclusion.

Here is the saga, in its earliest stage:
Even though Little A looked like this...
...it was time to go home.

I agree - it is HOT everywhere!
I don't have any ideas. I have ended up at Wal-mart twice this week with both of my kids, and that is not the cheapest way to beat the heat, let me tell you.
Are you girls into "Friends" dvd's, homemade margarita's, and the new copy of People magazine???
