We all know that summer is quickly approaching. It's supposed to be a 100 degrees here tomorrow. Along with summer heat come some hazards. For example:
1. Heat Exhaustion - I'll be standing in line Saturday morning in 100 degree weather so that I can register Quentin for the summer recreation programs. These programs sell out and therefore NOT standing in line opening day of registration is NOT an option. I'll be sure to drink plenty of H2O.
2. Sunburn - Usually the first round of sunburns happen over Mother's Day Weekend. We sit out at the parade and rodeo for hours and end up with sunburns. Well, this year I remembered to put sunscreen on Quentin and me! Aren't you just so proud?! :-)
3. Drowning - We're all good swimmers, but you still have to be very vigilant! Be careful everyone.
4. Fire - It's already turning into a horrible fire season. Make sure you've got 100' clearance around your homes wherever possible!
5. Popsicle Dangers - Yes, you read it right. I said Popsicle Dangers! How on earth is a popsicle dangerous? Well, do you remember the movie A Christmas Story? The one with Ralphie and electric sex glowing in the window. You know the movie. (No, there are no popsicles in that movie.) There is a scene where a kid gets Triple Dog Dared to stick his tongue to a light pole in freezing weather. He doesn't believe it will stick, but of course it does! Well, I just ate a popsicle and my damn lip STUCK to the popsicle and when it became unstuck a little layer of skin went with it! So, beware my friends of all of the popsicle dangers out there! Don't let anyone Triple Dog Dare you into eating a dangerous popsicle!
Be safe!

Thanks for the tips Jenn - I'll be sure to stay away from the lip peelers! **Hey, maybe you should try an OtterPop!
Hugs,

That's what you get for having fun eating popsicles when I'm gone on vacation. I'm just sorry I wasn't there to laugh at your misery! Because if that had been me, you KNOW you would have busted a gut laughing at me!
