I could use a cool down.  

It's about to start really heating up here. 

Shirfleur, even St. Louis was hot, but…do I even want to know what it will be like in the South? Tell me…bracing myself to even read it if it is hotter than St. Louis, because it will not be fun to read, and bracing myself even more if it is cooler than St. Louis in 2024, because that will be SCARY… 

Those temps looks similar to mine. You must live a little above nc. But nope, mosquitoes here are hardy. They be gone when it’s cold but one day of heat they come right back 😂 

Well thank goodness the fauna here is different even when the temperature at the time of year is the same. I am so grateful that untimely spring heat kills the mosquitoes here, as opposed to the same temps in summer, even if it is scary overall. Well it doesn’t kill all of them…I have a friend who was unlucky enough to get bitten even when it was cooler than this…but still warm for February. Maybe she’s outside enough that there was more time for that…and I should be outside like that too, if that was why. Gosh I need to go outside more 😂. Supergainz, you’d be proud of me. Even if it was still not enough for a physically able, young person like me, I got five digit steps two days in a row! The third day of any change is the hardest but I’ll do it today too!!! I know, not enough, still only enough steps to burn calories and no positive effects other than that calorie burn 😂unless you do it consistently for the most part for years on end lol. 😂 But enough for now because it’s a sharper rate of change than I’m used to with any goal. 

You say it as if getting bit by mosquitoes isn’t a normal thing lol do you not ever get bitten by one??? It’s so normal that I don’t even tell people about it 😂 

Well, it is normal if you are outside enough for it. I used to deal with it so much!!!! It isn’t fun. Now I take after Gen Z’s new bad habit of staying indoors too much even in summer. Bad bad habit even if you exercise and eat well. Don’t take after that Gen Z habit. 

*unless you are already Gen Z. 

*and then don’t take after it anyway! 

Yea I’m outside 80% of the time. Why would you stay indoors????? Nature is beautiful, take in the sights n fresh air. I’m a millennial, I just googled it 😂 

Supergainz, I have no excuse, if you go outside a lot AND are extremely active. Off the phone right now, for hours and hours of no screens, no more posting and commenting in excess instead of more action, less talk, and that’s only the beginning. Nice discipline.  

Middle Tennessee has just had that "summer" this week also, and it has been beautiful. Now, there is a lot of rain, the temps are going down at night, and we are turning up the covers. :) But, that is spring in middle Tennessee for ya.  

Yes. Time for two jackets in the morning and one jackets in the afternoon in Missouri. At least it isn’t cold enough to literally want to slow down indoors.
