The Dog Days of summer came early

Because the HEAT is MELTING us --and yes we have A/C and a swamp cooler (it only work s well a little over 90)--but when you leave work and get in your care and it is 105 in your car...even waiting with doors open for the A/C to cool it off is energy zapping..





and causing way to many fires--actually most of the fires are being caused by people not being careful..but there are way too many anyway



Not much is getting done in the sewing realm. Some work on the sewing room re-organization...it still looks like a cyclone hit.  some hand work on some turtles, mug rugs and borders on the Twilight Zone..


We are supposed to get some relief from the 100 degree+ temps--but thunderstorms may make the fire/smoke issue worse.


I am still able to plan Christmas presents and collect patterns in this heat tired state...

I am ready for Fall....

On a brighter note--have you got your glasses to watch the eclipse?  If not and you are in Reno they have them here:  Walmart Reno 7th St-Vision Center

While we won't get the full eclipse, it will be upwards of 70%...




Also coming are the Perseid Meteor Showers  -usually nice and cool by the time you can see them :-)

What are you planning for this hot weather??
