Ugh, heat. I mean, I complain about the cold, but at least then I can put on more layers. There's only so much clothing you can take off! I'm just saying. I haven't been outside today, so I don't know what it actually feels like, but our thermometer (on the back porch, where it doesn't usually get warm until the afternoon because of the way our house is designed) says 80 with 60% humidity. The humidity is the worst. Either way, I think I'll stay inside in the A/C. And maybe post another reminder on fb about heat safety.
We're lucky that we have the Rescue Mission here - I know that there are homeless around here who don't/won't go to there, but a lot of them do, and they're super about letting people just hang out in the cool and eat popsicles, lol. I feel bad for people who aren't homeless but just don't have A/C. I remember those days, since that was us a few years ago. We'd go to Walmart to walk around just because of the A/C.
I broke my toe once, but Davey is really the first of any of us to break a bone. My sister dropped a rock on her foot and broke it once, but she just got a boot, not a cast. I couldn't handle a cast - I get claustrophobic just thinking about it. I'd have to be sedated the entire time, I swear. Davey had a splint for the first week (which he took off multiple times) and then the long arm cast for 3 weeks. Now the short one. At least with the short one, he can reach his fingers to lick them (it was a big thing, okay?) and get on rides at the fair next week and it'll be easier to cover so he can swim.
