Cheri's Chatter

Ok...When it's 100 degrees at 10:00 at night, you know that the summer heat has arrived in Arizona. It means that it is time to hunker down or escape somewhere up north. Our highs the next four days will between 110-113!!!! I just have to keep playing in my mind January through February weather back in the Midwest. Shoveling snow, scraping windows, freezing wind chills, and bitter cold nights. Ok...I am better. I'm glad I live in the desert (even in July and August)! My air conditioner and I will become best friends!! Oh by the way, we have yet to turn our furnace on even in the winter!!

Last night I attended two parties at the same time. I'm not sure if you have heard of let'sdotea, but it is a company that offers a wide variety of tea. I love tea and would really like to drink more of it (this time of year I prefer cold tea). But somehow coke in the morning becomes my drink of choice. I'm still trying to drink more water!! Coke just means summertime. Oh well, I'm digressing. My mom and I both went together. We bought some cranberry peach and fresh cherry. We were able to try both and they were very yummy!! They were great cold teas. The other portion of the evening was devoted to Uppercase Living. It is where you can put phrases, scriptures, or other words on your walls (or as I learned last night practically anywhere). I had been thinking about doing this to one of our bare walls in our dining area. I have not quite decided which one I want to get. They had a lot of cute ideas and so very easy.

I decided to be brave and count how many more weeks I have until school starts back up. Much to my surprise it is only 4 1/2 away!!!! The other day I thought it was time to dig through my school bag. I had personally been dreading this since I could kind of remember the stuff I had frantically stuck in the last day of school. But almost two months later, I was tired of looking at it. Can an open bag of pretzels go bad?? I decided not to look, but quickly threw it away. I know why did I keep that? I guess somehow it just found its way to the bottom of my bag. Out of side, out of mind. I know I'm bad!

Well, I hope everyone has a great weekend! As long as our air conditioner stays, we will too!!
