★The smell of good sunblock. Yuck! You would think they'd do something about that.
★The sun. It bakes me. Turns me red.
★Grouchy people.
★My Dad's frustration with his health. It's a slow process people. We just have to have patients.
★Paperwork. Tons of it! I was buried for days!
★The State requiring weird stuff. As in paperwork. For my parents' business.
★The state of that office. And that man. Oh goodness...
★Trying to collect for past field trips. What a headache! Yes, there are some bills from over a year ago...
★Rushing around trying to track done a single paper. That we can't find. And never did find.
★People trying to figure out how to bill. For something that was paid off over 6 months ago. HELLO!

★This ridiculous heat wave! My house is at least 20 degrees hotter, than the outside temperatures. WTH?

★New fires in our state. My friends having to go fight them. They've been gone for weeks!
★Did I mention...ungrateful family?

Well folks, I'm just trying to beat the heat. It's hotter than Hell here. No lie. Even the priest said so this morning. We had a fast mass. Just to escape the heat. And I'm not doing so well. But what can we do? We can't fight our dear Lord. Instead we pray. And keep all those around the fire, in our prayers too. Happy Sunday! ♫
