| Hot enough for ya?
Posted: 8/3/2009 9:53:22 AM | Got this in my email today.... 
May 30th:
Just moved to THE SUNNY OKANAGAN. NOW THIS IS THE PLACE TO LIVE ...
Beautiful sunny days and warm balmy evenings. What a place! It is beautiful.
I've finally found my home. I love it here.
June 14th:
Really heating up. Got to 30 today. Not a problem. Live in an air-conditioned home, drive an air-conditioned car. What a pleasure to see the sun everyday like this. I'm turning into a sun worshipper.
June 30th:
Had the backyard landscaped with western plants today. Lots of cactus and rocks. What a breeze to maintain. No more mowing lawn for me. Another scorcher today, but I love it here.
July 10th:
The temperature hasn't been below 30 all week. How do people get used to this kind of heat? At least it's kind of windy though. But getting used to the heat is taking longer that I expected.
July 15th:
Fell asleep by the community pool. Got 3rd degree burns over 60% of my body. Missed 3 days of work. What a dumb thing to do. I learned my lesson though. Got to respect the ol' sun in a climate like this.
July 20th:
I missed Lomita (my cat) sneaking into the car when I left this morning. By the time I got to the hot car at noon, Lomita had died and swollen up to the size of a shopping bag
and stunk up the upholstery. The car now smells like Kibbles and shits. I learned my lesson though. No more pets in this heat.
July 25th:
The wind sucks. It feels like a giant freaking blow dryer!! And it's hot as hell. The home air-conditioner is on the Fritz and the A/C repairman charged $200 just to
drive by and tell me he needed to order parts.
July 30th:
Been sleeping outside on the patio for 3 nights now. $500,000 house and I can't even go inside. Why did I ever come here?
Aug. 4th:
Its 115 degrees. Finally got the air-conditioner fixed today. It cost $500 and gets the temperature down to 20. I hate this stupid city.
Aug. 8th:
If another wise-ass cracks, 'Hot enough for you today?' I'm going to strangle him. Damn heat. By the time I get to work the radiator is boiling over, my clothes were soaking wet, and I smell like baked cat!!
Aug. 9th:
Tried to run some errands after work. Wore shorts, and when I sat on the seats in the car, I thought my ass was on fire. I lost 2 layers of flesh and all the hair on the back of my legs and ass. Now my car smells like burnt hair, fried ass, and baked cat.
Aug. 10th:
The weather report might as well be a damn recording. Hot and sunny! Hot and sunny!
Hot and sunny! It's been too hot to do shit for 2 damn months and the weatherman says it might really warm up next week. Doesn't it ever rain in this damn desert??
Water rationing will be next, so my $1700 worth of cactus will just dry up and blow over. Even the cactus can't live in this damn heat.
Aug. 14th:
Welcome to HELL!!! Temperature got to 40 today. Forgot to crack the window and blew the damn windshield out of the car. The installer came to fix it and said, 'Hot enough for you today?' My sister had to spend $1500 to bail me out of jail.
Freaking OKANAGAN!! What kind of a sick demented idiot would want to live here??
Will write later to let you know how the trial went. | |

Hot enuf for me babe!
I just know we will be complaining come December when we have our annual 1'' of snow here on the lower mainland....followed by the freak snowstorm that will strand us on keep Festivus shopping days!
My kids discovered swimming in our backyard up in Lynn Canyon this week....and they love it up there... tons of seniors seeking shade and families having picnics, the best place about to cool off on these hot days....plenty of shade and pools to splash about in.
It seems that it is no longer a secret spot for locals only anymore. | |

Posted: 8/4/2009 4:29:59 PM | Lynn Canyon that place brings back memories!
Deadly spot on a hot day, for true.
Actually the place usually chalks-up a couple of cold bodies every year. | |
|
| Hot enough for ya?
Posted: 8/4/2009 5:11:39 PM | Yes, my cousin drowned in Lynn Canyon. Too many lives have been lost there and usually those of people far too young to die.
Finally, the temperature is where I like it. I do not care for the grey skies but this is so much better than it was.
Now, those nasty fires just have to be put out. | |

| Hot enough for ya?
Posted: 8/5/2009 12:01:49 AM | After the winter that I, and many others in my situation had to go through in 08/09, I will, and am always willing to go through the amount of heat that the sun throws my way so far this summer. Bring it on! But I will admitt that the cooler, more normal temps that have started to come our way, and the fact that I for some reason decided to buy an air conditioner earlier this has made things much nicer to deal with lately. And rain in the not too distant future for southern BC, which will (I hope) will help with the fires that are going on in our beautiful province right now. | |

Praise the lord, and pass the sun-screen.

Posted: 8/10/2009 2:47:21 PM | Cold and very windy here.
Driving on the motorcycle had some interesting moments, being buffeted in the more open areas.
The temperature is 69 deg. F. ... in my living room. Just about ready to put on a sweater.
Decent weather is forecasted for the end of the week. | |

Posted: 8/10/2009 6:02:17 PM | A couple of weeks ago we had temperatures almost double of what we have this week. However, do not put away the shorts yet, the weather forecast has some sizzle in it next week. The rain is a nice break.

Posted: 8/11/2009 12:29:26 PM | Seems to me, that no matter what the weather is/does there are always a fair share of complainers:
The ones who complain it's too hot, or too sunny, or too muggy.
The ones who complain it's too cold or not sunny enough.
The ones who complain about the rain ( that's me when it's too many, like 60 days in a row).
The ones who complain about...e v e r y t h i n g.
The ones who complain about the complainers!

Posted: 8/11/2009 6:26:10 PM | Today, I bought a second fan at Home Depot. I got a really good price on it. I hear that it could be going up to 30 degrees next week. Sorry, I do not know about the humidity.
I am not taking any chances with this weather. It can no longer be trusted. Anything can happen. | |

|
| Hot enough for ya?
Posted: 8/30/2009 11:40:56 AM | It's pretty humid already (lower mainland). I have the fans on me full blast. After 5 minutes cleaning stuff I'm sweating like crazy.
It's not hot out, warm but not hot. Just the humidity is yucky. | |

Doesn't matter the weather. MediaNaranja is hot enough for me! ~MM
Is this a hot flash or am I blushing? Thanks MM
The other day I was looking at birthday cards...There was one with a photo, on the cover, of a very handsome, sexy man with silver haired temples, holding a palm frond.
He said: "Hot flashes, baby? I will fan you"
Inside it said: " Happy Birthday...You get hotter every year".

Posted: 8/31/2009 6:49:46 AM | A friend has a heat pump in his home and often told us how cool it kept his house during the record breaking heat wave we had here in July.
Last week he told us he got his BC Hydro bill. It was a shockingly high bill, over $500. It is usually under $150.
It was then he said his wife had kept the thermostat to 67 degrees F, He found it so chilly in the house he almost put on a sweater, but decided to go outside to warm up.
I think he had a "talk" with her about recommended temperature settings.
We suggested getting one of those lockable cages over the thermostat, like they use in public places. | |

Posted: 9/1/2009 4:58:04 PM | your friend may be in mortal danger...does he realize that there may be some correlation between his wife's lack of ability to feel temperature and the coffin she floats out of every evening, as soon as the sun sets? (shudder)
