If YLGuy doesn't get here soon, we won't be at the mini-meet on time!  It is a  long drive from N.C. to California!   :rofl;   

It is 3:52 am and I am awake, again.  I would give anything for 8 hours of sleep.  The cat is asleep.  My husband is asleep (I can hear his storing from here!).   And I am watching the Discovery Channel and talking to all of you.    :rofl;

So, for now, I win!!

When I lived in northern Australia, on the weekends, I filled the bath with cold water in the morning.  I would get in every hour or so.   It wasn't so much the heat (32 degrees Celcius) as the humidity.

I was sleeping on the floor.
Rough night and day, but in the end ceiling fan and light is fixed and even better (new parts with new tech make a world of difference). Room is cooler now, but could not sleep much during the night and when I did finally sleep, I slept till 2 pm and quickly got up for a cold shower. However I was in so much pain and bp was low and droped bad while working on ceiling fan. Do you know the feling of loosing site due to bp dropping, loosing strength to hold something up, looking up and can only get relief by either looking down bent over or just laying down.

YLGuy, did you not read my messages about picking me up for the meet?  I have been sitting on my curb for 2 days!!  It is 95 outside - but I just kept waiting - I knew you would be here.    *sigh*

It is great that the mini-meet was a success.  Thanks Jean, for hosting!  I have to be there next time!
