Some Like It Hot

Finally Summer has arrived in Upstate NY. Hot muggy icky sweaty summer. I am not cold. I will be not cold for approximately the next two weeks, at which time summer in Upstate will be over, and I will again be cold. But for now…I’m basking in the warmth. (Of course, Magnum Hates the heat!!)

If I weren’t married to a man who loves my hair to be long, I would have it cut short. Shorter than I’ve ever had it. I’m just so…tired of it. But I don’t want him to say I look like his ex wife. Although I did fall in love with a Chihuahua the other day.

So, on Saturday, I wanted to do something different. Something we don’t do every other Saturday. Yeah, it didn’t work out. We still ended up in Saratoga. Although we managed to visit places other than the normal places…it still isn’t what I had in mind. And, I think, I’m a cheap date because it doesn’t take much to please me. I say, Let’s do something different and Magnum hears Let’s do something outrageous and expensive. When I say, Let’s do something different, I mean, let’s drive East, instead of North. I mean, just do something besides the same thing I do, and have been doing, every Saturday for the past 3 years. Drive me to Vermont & let me look at the quaint little shops. I don’t have to buy anything. Take me to a river that I’ve never been to, or a park. Chaknow? And, of course, then I feel bad for Magnum because he’s been driving 45 minutes one way to work every day, and all he wants to do is rest on the weekend. I’ve been home all week, and all I want to do is run all weekend.
