I cannot believe the heat you are having Linds! Your weather goes from one extreme to another! Stay cool!!!
Gayle, I heard on TV yesterday that Austin Texas is the highest rated place for the baby boomer retirees to move to! Lots of music, culture, fun, and an easy, interesting place to live! I guess that included living in an air conditioned place, but most people do.

Usually it doesn't get this hot. Usually it's mid-30's, but the humidity this year is just crazy! We usually have dry heat. But yes, we can be close to -60C with windchill factors in the winter (-70's F) and around +40 in the summer (100-110 F). We're built for all kinds of conditions lol! I overheard someone else saying that there's only one other spot in the world that gets such extreme temperature changes over a year, but I don't remember where that was. Someone in the office was talking about it!
Diana, I couldn't bear to be outside either! But at least you were able to pick up an air conditioner for Amy, I'm sure she needs it now!
Scott and I finally went to the dentist today. It's really bad, I hadn't been for 5 years, and he hadn't been in at least that long. I am TERRIFIED of dentists. Anyways, I had a cleaning and check-up, and luckily even after 5 years, no cavities! My biggest fear about dentists is having needles in my mouth

You would think that would encourage me to go MORE, but nope! Anyways, I lucked out this time. I've only had 2 cavities in my life, when I was around 12 years old, but it still scares me!
Apparently, Scott and I have both developed a habit of grinding our teeth at night. I never thought I did that. But, they're showing enamel wear and cracking

So they're going to order a night guard for me. It's about $250 but my insurance may cover part of it.
Scott also needs his wisdom teeth removed, which I have been telling him for ages. Unfortunately, he can't just have them pulled because they're coming in sideways. He needs to go to an oral surgeon and have the gums cut open and the teeth extracted. The cost is about $1900 and his insurance will not cover that. He hasn't made an appointment yet, but it looks like we're going to have to look at this wedding budget again and probably cut some things out.
