Heat Wave

It's hot here. Like fry an egg on the side walk hot. The kids can't go outside, it's too miserable. So, we have gone to the pool almost everyday for relief. That's about all you can do outside. So in order so keep the kids busy and not cooped up fighting, we go to the Maumelle Community Pool. It's a great place...we always have friends there. The life guard told me the water was 90 degrees today. Not much relief, but better than being at home or sweating to death in a park somewhere.
I've been trying to get the kids ready for school. We still have 3 or 4 weeks of summer left, but if I put off uniform shopping too long the sizes I need are gone. So I went through closets this week. Pulled out the clothes that are too small or just flat out grungy. Went shopping and filled the closets back up. Not a cheap task considering we have 3 kids in uniforms who have all outgrown their last year stuff. But the task is done. Now we just need school supplies and we are ready to go.

When I first started reading this post and saw the picture I thought that you were going to say "See how bored we are with the heat! I organized the closets!" :) Sometimes I wish we had uniforms. Shopping would be easy!
