Its 80 at 11 30. It finally peaks around 3-4 pm and then SLOWLY goes down after 9.
I have a session at 6 30 today. Hopefully we dont die. I offered to reschedule but the mom is on a time frame. I understand. I already made it as late as possible. Here soon ill run to the store for bottled water which ill freeze. We have 4 kids, plus myself and my pony handler and the parents. Water will be needed. Ill have my work cut out for me, editing hot pink cheeks out. Its been peaking in the 100s that late at night.
I got a mild concussion the other day. I was giving ice bottles to the rabbits and one of the kids came down on me, Its a heavy lid, Fully solid wooded with waterproof tar paper on top. Its heavy. Hit me right on the side of my head into my forehead. I came inside, 90 degrees. With mild heat exhaustion and passed out for a few hours. Its not my first concussion. But i knew right away thats what it was. The dizzy and queasy that comes with it. I slept for a bit and then when dinner was done i felt a bit better. I still have a huge knot that hurts to touch. Washing my hair sucks! Cant lie. have to touch it and so does water lol.

We swam yesterday. I didnt get swimmers itch this time. Im still healing from the last one. I have nasty pustules everywhere that itch like mad. I itch till i bleed. Between the itch, mosquito bites, noseeum bites and god whatever else gets me out there. It looks pretty ugly. Thankfully the kids stop itching. Anyway back to swimming. We swam for a bit but today is a no swim day. Not with the session later. I nee to save my strength.

tomorrow looks like we are going to the city and doing work for the husbands client. Will be a long drive. Thank goodness for AC. The car is the only place that is cooler. Or a store haha.

My goal today is to keep from sweating till my session. Once i start sweating i overheat. But if i sit here and do nohting, then i dont. Once i do the session, im literally going to DIE, do it, then go to my car and cool off in the AC. Take a shower, and hopefully eat before i pass out. I generally dont do well in the heat, The auto immune disorder takes it out of me on the best of days.
Oh lordy i need to go get my child’s prescription allergy meds. Just got a text and a call. Do that tomorrow. I keep forgetting seeing he still has some. Tomorrow also my boyo has his doctor appointment for his med management. Time to get ready for school. sigh. I cant believe its THAT time again.

Ok random mutterings off. Im going to spin a bit before it hits 90 inside.
