A place where my heart speaks,
my friends gather,
everyone is welcome
and Diet Coke flows like water.

ahhhh, you're gonna reck that new hair doo but your hubbies socks won't have to be washed tomorrow!That is too hot,, way too hot.It has never reached that here,,the warmest i think it has ever reached was 88,, once a long time ago,,be cool,
Thanks for your sweet comment! LOVE your recipe for a cool down! Will have to keep that in mind.....it's over 100 here today ~ not quite as hot as Phoenix, but HOT! Can't wait to meet you and all the other wonderful ladies in September! Stay cool and keep that supply of Diet Coke stocked! ;-)
Several years ago we had a discussion about adding a pool and my husband won. So I went to Walgreens, bought me a blow up kiddie pool, put on my swimsuit, poured myself a glass of wine and got in. It didn't phase him one bit. I still don't have a pool. Evidently over the years he has developed quite the immunity to whining.
Got any Hank Williams, Jr. in the background??? Whatever cools you off; we can only take off so much!! Thanks for your comment about my Ally and her fav horse. Can't wait to see what you do for the 4th!!! Be SAFE ~ Debi
You could have come over and swam with us and Barley. I mean she is a dog, but she's pretty clean. I love your redneck cool down. You guys really look good out there. At least you have grass. All we have are rocks. You've got on a Gunnarboo style hat. And look every bit as stylish as he does. Had fun Friday. It is blowing 60 mph right now and dust is filling our pool. We might have a mud bog by the 4th.
I remember being 9 months pregnant (when your body temp goes up anyway) when we lived in Tucson. I thought I would melt. I would wear long pants, and long sleeves, hose myself down, and walk around like a self-contained evaporative cooler. Not especially attractive, but effective.
Holly, you never fail to amuse me! I love how real you are.....always the one having all the fun! I too hope you remembered the sunscreen:) I pinned these, know I should have asked, but I loved them and thought you guys were sooo cute! Stay cool......
lololol...........we were in the same boat yesterday....but only 100 here....I just do what I always do when I cant stand the heat anymore...I go to Borders....lol...or if its really hot and I want the BEST a/c...Alberstsons!!!!!
1. Nice hats 2. Who took the photos of you two? 3. What kind of sprinkler were you using? 4. You two are ingenious....if not a little strange. 5. I'd do this 6. Love you.......
Ha Ha! You remind me of Don and I and our idea to get a kids wading pool one year to keep cool...it was only big enough to sit in...which we did until our skin shriveled up!

I just stay underwater anymore. Tricky to breathe but it's cooler.

For some reason, I am facinated by the socks.

LMAO You guys are hilarious!!

You think holding your hand out in front of you like that is going to keep the water off??? Looks like a fun way to stay cool though.

You gotta stay cool somehow! Waddah ya post to do?
;-)
xo, Cheryl
Why didn't the rednecks turn on the A/C? Lol :)
Hahahahaha! Hope you remembered the sunscreen. Have a fantastic 4th! :-)
It's a scientific fact that sprinklers have far more "cool factor" than pools. Especially while wearing socks.
You guys rock.

Y'all are too cool for school!
Hi Holly....Met you at Jo's....the other one. LOL LOL
I, too, am a AZ gal only I travel in the summer to get out of the heat. Please don't hate me. LOL
Anyway.....when I used to be home during the summer....I often would open the freezer door and just stand there.....actually quite refreshing. (O:(O:
Glad I found you,
Jo
