Recycled from July 4th, 2012
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 4th of July. ~~ I had planned to walk in the Waxhaw parade beside the JAARS float. But it is just too hot (for this old lady). I laid out my patriotic wardrobe last night but changed my mind this morning. It will get up to at least 96 degrees today and humidity is already high. ~~ It seems like the “sensible thing” (health-wise) to not walk on hot pavement in this heat. I’m staying home… and working on my “independence” as I continue to free myself from an excessive amount of personal possessions. (“Downsizing”!!)
Postscript, 3:30 PM: Ninety-four degrees!!
Postscript, 5:00 PM: “Heat index over 100 degrees!” per evening news weatherman.
