I hate to complain I'm very happy its not been raining every single day for the last week. But I'm telling ya what it has been so hot out this past week or two that I don't feel like doing a thing. I dread doing anything at all. Got some landscaping work that has to been done this week so I suppose I'll have to get on it.

Was still 97 here yesterday afternoon at 6:30 with the heat index at 110. Supposed to be hotter today. Been pretty miserable this past week, was out in it too much over the weekend. I don't tolerate the heat as well as I used to. Got some things to do in the garden this afternoon, then mow the yard again.

Yeah, I will complain. Sick of this heat, ready for cooler weather. Already this morning, walk out in it and stand and start sweating within minutes without even exerting any energy. Humidity here is always a factor, but been absolutely ridiculous the past couple weeks. Last week we were seeing real feel temps between 105 and 110 with temps in the upper 80's to low 90's. Today supposed to hit 99 for an actual temp, another heat warning and advisory for today, potentially see 115 heat index today.

Humidity is keeping the grass damp well into the day too. Last time I mowed the yard, started at 4 in the afternoon and it was not dry, crazy.

Guess a bright side to it, the pastures are in good shape and there should be plenty of hay this year. Should be a good year for antler growth too.

Now that is hot! I'm not sure what it got to here today but it was hot. I worked outside all day for the most part and it sucked. I'm now sick of it took one day of working outside in lol

Got more things to do tomorrow to get caught up before I hopefully go back to work next week hoping to. Got laid off there Monday afternoon for money reasons not lack of work. Sucks.

It was BRUTAL here yesterday too!! We hit 95 actual temp with a heat index of 108. Hottest I've seen it in a long time. Was still in the upper 80s today but nice breeze and not nearly as humid. Looks like we're heading back to 70s for highs starting on Saturday with lows in the upper 50s. That's more like it. I'm so ready for fall temperatures, can't stand the heat!

Only 93 something seems wrong with that right there. Hot here today. Mowed some yards and started building a pallet bed that Ashley wants for our room.

I'll make a thread and post some progress pics as I go tomorrow.

Pallet bed?

She must have been on pintrest. My wife been nagging me about some pallet bed she saw on pintrest.

LOL I assume she found it on there I'm not sure. But its a frame for the bed. Of course all we have to go off of is a picture. So I'm making it up as I go. Which is fine I can do that but normally its smaller things not something that takes a lot of time. But I think we figured it out so got a good plan. I'll take pics tomorrow and see if I can't get them posted. I think it'll turn out pretty awesome if I can get it right.

Umm yeah Cody, only 93 the other day and was not too bad, think we had a one day break where heat index barely made it over 100. Nice break from the over 115 heat indexes. 94 and heat index was only supposed to hit 103 today, a nice cool real feel right now of 97, but I am cooling off in the ac in the house. Had to work on fences this morning and do some work in the barn, was little to no breeze and it warmed up quick. Mowed the yard this afternoon after doing some work with the bigger tractor, told the wife I need a new tractor with cab ac, I cant handle this crap.

Yeah cold front here too, lol. We are supposed to be down to 69 tonight instead of only getting down in the mid 70's. :rolleyes:
