It was Another Scorcher

with the mercury pushing up to 100F.  Way to hot for this early in the summer.  Usually happens late in July-into August.  Starts to dry things out very, very quickly.
I went out for my walk early this morning and it hadn't even really cooled down from yesterday-still 72out!  I watered the grass and the plants.  I ran to the grocery store and it was a zoo with everyone getting ready for the 4th, tomorrow.  I came home and headed into the basement where it is nice and cool and got all my ironing done and finished watching Les Mis. 
Only took 3 rounds of ironing to watch the entire thing-that is one long movie.  I put dinner in the crock pot, so I wouldn't have to think about cooking later in the day.  After dinner it was off to the pool with Kirsten and the kids for swimming lessons. 

I want one of these- a glass of Sangria from last weekend when the heat was just getting started.
My future deep sea diver.
Found out their little pool had a leak and got them a new one today.  They can try it out tomorrow when they will be here for a lunch time BBQ.
