Vittrad, I'll take a look at that.

You know, because I have doctored my entire life over this obnoxious sinus and allergy problem that they can not fix, I would live in -5 to 35 degrees for months on end rather than this for 3 days or 1 week. Actually with this humidity, it's not better for me even with it being high 80's.

I feel like I have arrows stuck in my eyes, and if I take all the medicine to help it, I can't work for grogginess. All heat kills me and all my energy, AZ no better. This summer can't come to an end fast enough for me.

And we had rain now off and on for days, but also much lightening. Last night a house not 2 blocks from me got hit, took a large part of the roof off, and started major fire. House is 1/2 gone. All 5 family members safe today, but 1 has lightening burns on her arm- she was washing her face in the upstairs bathroom.

It's been like hell here.

Finally cooled of here in the Midwest - my air conditioner is set on energy saver - 72 degrees - and hasn't shut off for over a week. When I got up this morning it was off!!
It's only going to get up to about 85 today. Happy day.
The Weather Channel doesn't have us going over 90 in the next week.

We chuckled at "monsoon season" when we landed in Phoenix. We didn't chuckle when we drove through two HORRIBLE hard rainstorms while driving through the desert. Amazing to see rushing and roaring water in the washes.
