Officially HOT!

Summer has arrived in the desert, and by that I mean it will be stinking hot from now until October! Of course, "it's a dry heat". No mold growing on these bathroom walls! (which, by the way, goes on my "things I like about the desert" list). Most of the people that live in the "land of extremes" could win a season of Survivor without blinking. It is also helpful if you have a good sense of humor or at least a spouse with one; Exhibit A: Husband Michael, keeping me laughing, same as it ever was, thanks honey and thank God!

Who cares if it's 100° out, I'm laughing on the inside. 

Stay cool!
