Ready for this pounding headache I have had for several hours to depart. Thinking heat related. It was 102 degrees outside today. I worked outside until almost 3:00. Came in, stripped off soggy clothes to take cold shower ... then the power went went off and almost 2 hours before it came back on. Made the dogs come outside and come sit at the far end of backyard in the shade with me. Checked on my new neighbor couple of times - she is 72 and still on chemo, she was diagnosed with breast cancer in April 2012. Put some ice cubes in a bandana ... wrapped it around my male dog's head, fed him ice and rubbed him down with ice cubes. Poor guy, he got too hot and started throwing up.
All is well now here aside from headache.
Our little 2 hour experience in brutal heat without air conditioner was nothing compared to what others around the U. S. are going through.
Happy Saturday evening to all you BFPlaneteers!
