Feeling HOT HOT HOT

By -

Once when I was in California a kid asked me if in Minnesota do we take dog sleds to school year round. He also asked me if we had indoor plumbing too. I guess in California they are taught that Minnesota is a frozen tundra with lots of Hillbillies as residents.
Well i am here to prove the world and Californians wrong. Today in Minneapolis it is 102 degrees of pure hot heat. We are currently the HOTTEST city in the country! It feels like my wedding day which was equally as hot. Thankfully our house has air conditioning, sadly our one car does not. And we actually had to go in said car today so I could go to the doctor for a check-up. Poor Everett was a hot sticky mess when we got home!!!
Anyway, so Minnesota can be hot, very hot! No sled dogs today!

It always amazes me how people think cities up north don't get hot! What do they think happens in Minnesota when the rest of the country is 90 degrees?!

Some may call me crazy, but I'm actually quite jealous of your weather right now. It's been about 67 degrees for the past 18 months here in San Diego. Last summer it went above 80 maybe twice. Endless Bummer is what we called it, and we're REALLY hoping for some beach weather this year. So I say to you: Enjoy the heat while it lasts!!

I'm way behind....but we have a car without air too....crazy! Craig gets to drive it to work so I don't have to cart the 3 kiddos around in the heat. I am sticking by my self professed motto that I am a winter girl for sure! ;0)

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
