Oh Shanny, yes! If Diana can recommend a good yoga instructor here, I would *love* to start going. I practiced several years ago when I was in Omaha (I almost typed Ohmaha! rofl), and remember being astounded at how energised I was after a "workout" that involved a lot corpse posing. Plus, I'm sure it would help with my back--all the stretching and core strengthening would be wonderful. I wasn't able to take any classes at the gym I never went to here, because of my schedule..but perhaps an independent instructor will have a more flexible schedule. So yes! Thanks for the offer. : )
In other exciting news, our (my?) new digital camera arrived today and it is a tiny tiny thing. Like, deck of cards small. Like, I'm afraid to touch it on account of the inherent connection between my klutzy nature and my hands. However, I have another 4 or 5 hours to get over it, because that's how long the battery will take to charge. *sigh* Nothing like getting a new toy and then finding out you can only LOOK at it for half a day. By the time the battery is ready to go, I'll be ready for bed. The heat flares up early, so I have to beat it in order to walk the dogs before the temperature breaks 100 degrees.
Today it was 105 and 9% humidity. I have to laugh when I hear numbers like that. Wanna know what it's like? Stick your head in your oven at its lowest setting and you'll have a pretty good idea. Above 110-115 it all feels pretty much the same. It's getting ugly here, and it's only May. I get pissy thinking about waking up at 7 to take the dogs out, but soon I'll have to start getting up around 5am, because it will be too damn hot at 7am. One day last year it was 98 at 7am, I kid you not. Yes, yes, it's wrong. So very wrong. But I'll be thinking of you all next January when it's 75 degrees here under completely clear blues skies. Yes.

Sooo, what will the first photo be of? The floor? Your specs? A dog? A self-portrait? The blazing oven? I'm making mental odds and taking bets with myself. You can too!
I look forward to your pics.
I know the heat well. Lived there for about six years. Air Force and college time. Graduated from ASU.
Have a kiddo, grand kids and great-grand kids in Phoenix.
Enjoyed going to Prescott to play in the snow around Christmas and then coming back to the sweltering heat.
Stay as cool as you can.
Diana has been called. I will let you know the names she gives me once I receive them.
As for the heat...ugh is all I can say.
