Living with this Ks heat


This Ks heat has been kicking my whole family's butt. Payton, Maddy, and myself have gone to California for the last five summers and we've enjoyed the summer heat there. Well coming back here in the middle of June has got me thinking we should of stayed in CA. The heat is bad and then add on top of that humidity. It can read 90 outside but it feels more like 100. Its crazy how hot it can get here. I then feel bad that we run our A.C. all day and we use that much energy but if we don't run it then we all melt. I try to put it on a reasonable temperature but Michael like it below freezing in the house so we go back and forth on that issue.

I have been taking the kids to the pool so one they can be outside and two they can play in the water and stay nice and cool. But being in the water all day with the sun beaming right on you I don't think is very good. Payton and Maddy have always been water babies. They take to water like they were fishes. Once Payton gets in the pool, there's always a struggle to get him out. Madison likes to play in the water but once shes had enough then shes done!!!

On top of the heat being beyond hot and too much to go outside, we have these massive thunderstorms. I love these thunderstorms so much and when it happens at night, I sleep like a baby. The only bad thing to come with these storms (which happens every other day in the summer) are the tornadoes. If there where no tornadoes I wouldn't care how many storms wed get but the more storms we get the more tornado chances we get. And I just don't feel comfortable with that idea and with the idea of having a huge vacuum come out of the sky and take my house and all of our stuff, and destroy it all into little pieces within seconds. No thanks!!!!!
