Hot enough for everyone?

Everyone enjoying the weather? Hope anyone working outside is taking care of themselves. Anyone got anything new going on or any plans for the weekend? Nothing going on here. Just thought I would check in with everyone.

I've been hiding inside for most of the day, and do what I can in the mornings and evenings... normally I would be better conditioned to it, but I lust haven't had the exposure...

Since I work outside most of the time I try to get most of it done in the morning if I can , but someone usally comes in durning the hottest part of the day and needs something so I just take it easy and try not to over heat myself.

I've been starting at 7am and knocking off at 1:00 then I start back up about 4:00 to finish out the day. Just about the time I get used to the heat the weather starts cooling off again. Jeff

This is when I kinda like my job. Refrigerated warehouse, the coolers are set a 38 degrees. It's warmer out on the dock, but as long as no outside doors are open it still pretty cool.

Just got off a 48 hr shift this morning, It was hot as h@@@ yesterday on the interstate working car wrecks. The pavement made the 102 feel like 200.

I have to make a emergency road trip to KC KS, family in hospital not doing good. Was suppose to have left around 730 tonight but starter went out of car and no parts till 7am. Wish the Rally was this weekend. The hospital I am going to is just south of woodlawn.

Leaving the house in the morning to go to work is like entering into a furnace. I'm glad I work in an office on these hot days and in the winter. Really can't stand the cold!

Looks like maybe a little break is on the way. I'm trying to put off cutting the grass as long as I can. I just sucks when you go out early in the morning and it is already muggy.
