| The cold front came through and had to resort to putting on the heat yesterday to get the chill out of the house. Hopefully the temps will rise a bit later in the week. Oh I do miss Jersey weather!

YT 2000 Club Member | dog You should hear the Californians complain of the heat! San Diego is usually really comfortable but now we are so hot! I live in Santee, east of San Diego and it is over 100 today. We aren't used to this heat and people are not looking very happy. Dogs should never be walked on hot pavement and you see that here because people just aren't ready for this heat! |

| 72 here today. Yeah, walking on hot pavement is crazy. When I walk Cook it's almost always on grass, and when we have to walk on pavement I always put my entire palm on the pavement first to see if it's hot.

| SoCal Heat I am so tired of this excess heat and wish it would end. My poor dog wants to go outside for his usual walk but does not understand he will burn his feet if he does! But how I feel for the poor fireman working the flames here in this heat! Hope winter/rain comes soon and then we can complain about that, LOL! |

| We are cooking here, 106 degrees! I'm not letting the doggies outside, not even to go wee wee (have indoor potty area in the bathroom), they're gonna come back to me as hot dogs! There's a heat warning advisory...staying in w/the A/C on. I can never complain about rain..love it, wish it, need it!

| Ca heat! Please let this heat end!!!! Have to curb the use of A/C as it is a "reduce the use day" today and tomorrow. Holed up in the coolest (ha, ha) room, the office, with fan on full blast. Come back cold and rain, all is forgiven! This week is when I had the old patio cover removed, ….today, and the new one put in, tomorrow. Poor guys doing the job! Without that sun screen it is so extra hot in the house. I know this rant is not cooling the house, but it reduces my temperature. LOL! Dog and I enjoying cool iced drinks. AAAAH! |

| I know what you mean. All the guys here building the houses in our neighborhood. How can they work in this heat? When we had our patio cover put up, I turned on the AC bc it was hot in the house. Then I thought about the guys outside and turned it off.

| Heat Thank you from a fellow sufferer. How these poor guys work in this heat I do not know. They say it's not too bad??? I keep giving them iced water and drinks, but I still feel so bad for them. As it is again a save electricity day, we are pretty warm too in the house, but can't feel bad knowing how the poor guys are suffering outside. This patio cover sure was built with sweat!!! Praying for an end to this and some cooling rain. Hang in there! |

| I finally paid attention to the U. S. weather news and found out about the heat you guys in SoCal are going through! Nobody understands more than someone who spends summers in Texas!!! Sure hope things cool down soon and we can all start to have some real fall weather! We had a wonderful cool spell last week here in Texas but sadly, this week, we're heating up again. I WANT MY COOL WEATHER!!!

| Cali Heat Hi Jeanie: Long time no see!!! Hope all is well. Thanks for the empathy, and it looks like you too are pretty warm in TX. No cool Fall stuff on the horizon here so far, hope it drops by soon. Have a cool one on me. :-) |

| heat Good luck in your move to NC :-) I wonder if it is that bad compared to parts of NY state? Long Island in August was very humid, 90 deg and 90 % humidity, that was pretty bad … for me anyway! So NC might be OK after all? Roll on Labor day and cool for all of us. Yeh!!! |

Plus, the installer yesterday left off a face panel that covers up a hole in the wall lots of satellite, phone, speaker cables come through and I'm thanking God I have no bugs or mice in the walls or who knows what would be walking my floors tonight! And my wifi isn't talking to my DirecTV satellite receiver, so I can't get On Demand programming! I've paid for access to it for over a year but w/out internet hook-up, I couldn't access it unless I went through a very, very slow adapter which I unhooked after a week! Took 3 hours to download one program! Now I've got to call them and have them walk me through what to do - according to the Account Specialist at the wifi provider. Supposedly my new wifi modem is a router/modem and could connect either wirelessly or with an ethernet cable but the steps DirecTV gives me in their on-screen menu for connecting to the internet using either wireless, a plug adapter or wired options, all look like an ethernet cable is required - which the wifi people - naturally - do not provide. But the thing is, I can get on the Internet through my Sony Blu-Ray player for the free stuff like Crackle and YouTube, but once I register through my Sony Blue-Ray service - which I couldn't do yesterday as I my laptop wifi card wasn't working - I can then register/join Netflix, etc., through that connection. But I can't get to my DirecTV On Demand programming through the blu-ray player! I'm SO confused. So off I go searching through my spare TV, cable and speaker wires and things or Best Buy tomorrow to try to find or buy an ethernet cable so I can hook my new wifi modem to the satellite receiver and hopefully all will work once I've gone through the set-up! I think I probably have an old ethernet cable here from back from that old, slow adapter hook-up I took out but just can't remember. At this point, my brain is totally scrambled. I just told Jenny(minimomo) a while ago that it's a painful thing to get dragged into the 21st century all in one day! And the registering you have to do. Register with the wifi network, register this, register that, get re-connected and set up with the wifi provider's email network, register with Sony, then Netflix and on and on. I'm going to be filling out online forms from now on! And I've run totally OUT of usernames and passwords!!!!!!!!!! And I've still got to call and cancel my old AT&T landline and DSL network but I've just run out of steam tonight!!! Help!!! Somebody find the 1990's for me - I think it was easier back then! But it wasn't any cooler here in Texas.

YT 2000 Club Member | dog Hi Jeanie, I just love your texts. You make us seem cool since Texas can really heat up. I hope Tibbe is by the fan or air cond. My Yorkies sit right in front on that oscillating fan and stay cool. They run outside to do business and run back in -today hit 105. We are not used to this, we are from southern California where the sun shines but not scorches! So glad you are back on line with your wise advice. |
