its getting hot in here.


As it gets warmer, the less use our swamp cooler seems to be. It helps enough to use it but in order to not sweat in my house it seems I have to leave the air on, use both fans and keep all blinds closed at all times to try to block the sun from beating down in here. I know it isn't as warm as it is in St. George but without central air, its getting tough! Yesterday I spent 4 hours at the pool :) I'll survive thanks to the pool and Otter Pops, I'm just sad that my roses only lasted a couple days because they couldn't stand the heat. I tried keeping them cool but it was no use. I still love them since Chad got them for me, just sad they died so quick!

How are you guys staying cool this summer?

I'm not staying cool. :( We have a two story townhouse and our front windows have direct sunlight from 1pm until the sun sets around 9pm. It's so hot and I miss central air. I met a nice lady who told me about these eclipse shades at Wal-mart that have totally blocked out the sun and have made her rooms cooler, so I might try investing in some of those.

But for now, I sleep with two tower fans on and the windows open.

P.S. Very sad that your very pretty flowers melted. Dratted summer. :(
