Kudos to you for keeping to your walking program even with such a high UGH index! You're an inspiration hun! 

That sounds like a sauna! Hot & Sticky...you must have been drippy by the time you finished! How do you keep your pool cool enough to be refreshing in such heat? 

Thanks Carol. Hope your week is off to a good start! 

Look there goes the energizer bunny in that there heat...LOL your my hero girl...its 90 here and even to me thats hot, hot, hot...Happy first day of Aug..my friend.....Bren 

Dar, absolutely I was drippy by the time I finished! If sweat cleanses the pores, well, I've got some of the cleanest pores around - LOL! The pool benefits (cools) from being in a screened enclosure which deflects the sun's rays a bit and also cools when we get the afternoon clouds that accompany any rain/storms. None of these is all that cooling by itself, but it's cooler than if the pool were out in full sun all day long. Current temp is running about 84-85 in the morning and goes up to 86 or so in the afternoon before the clouds come in. 

Sandy - no one call call you a wimp! 

Hey there Bren. The neighbors are starting to complain about the bass drum...LOL! With the late afternoon rain today, the temps have fallen to 78 already and it's only 10:30PM. Hope to get a cooler walk in tomorrow, although the humidity has NOT gone away in any manner or form. Have a blissful Tuesday. 

Thanks Buffy. I did draw the line yesterday and today, though. The lawn needs mowing but the temp was 96 at the point I was considering it and the heat index was well over 100, so said, "Nah...." 

Keep enjoying those walks and thank goodness for the pool! :)
