Hot, hot, hot. What day are we swimming this week?

Sarah July 26, 2008 at 5:24 PM  

just in time for my family to arrive :D

Ummm... is this a sarcastic post? Why would you look forward to 100+ degree weather???? Now, if it said it was going to be in the 70's, I would look forward to that. LOL

My name is Andrea July 26, 2008 at 6:43 PM  

oh lisa, this is sarcasm....

what is getting me through is that i remember how pleasant it is here from late september until may.

Jess July 26, 2008 at 9:32 PM  

Haha, I think that's what gets me through too. The summers in Rexburg were great...but the winters were something else. Now it's quite the reversal! Thanks for doing the tag :)

Bethanne July 26, 2008 at 10:37 PM  

I know...and the forecast says nothing below 100 all week (thru NEXT Saturday). Wow. I sure hope we're all feeling better so that we can enjoy swimming again!

i hope those dots are dripping with sarcasm. i don't leave my house unless it's straight to a pool over 95 degrees if i can help it.

yuck..sounds like no fun. The weather here is amazing. But, I'm still thinking of going to Vegas/California for a few months in the winter.

Perfect weather for swimming and getting a tan! Tuesday is our swim date, and Wednesday, and Thursday, and Friday. :o) I'm really pale!

My poor husband is out in this heat today training all day long in PANTS.... ugh. I don't know how he has gotten used to it over the years, but he has!

"I am one of [Jesus Christ's] witnesses, and in a coming day I shall feel the nail marks in his hands and in his feet and shall wet his feet with my tears. But I shall not know any better then than I know now that he is God's Almighty Son, that he is our Savior and Redeemer, and that salvation comes in and through his atoning blood and in no other way."--Bruce R. McConkie, "The Purifying Power of Gethsemane"

"...we must be careful, as we seek to become more and more godlike, that we do not become discouraged and lose hope. Becoming Christlike is a lifetime pursuit and very often involves growth and change that is slow, almost imperceptible. The scriptures record remarkable accounts of men whose lives changed dramatically, in an instant... But we must be cautious as we discuss these remarkable examples. Though they are real and powerful, they are the exception more than the rule. For every Paul, for every Enos, and for every King Lamoni, there are hundreds and thousands of people who find the process of repentance much more subtle, much more imperceptible. Day by day they move closer to the Lord, little realizing they are building a godlike life. They live quiet lives of goodness, service, and commitment. They are like the Lamanites, who the Lord said "were baptized with fire and with the Holy Ghost, and theyknew it not." (3 Ne. 9:20; italics added.)"--Ezra Taft Benson, "A Mighty Changeof Heart"
