Went to Burlington Kansas today to so some genealogy stuff. We took some photos and drove around to spots we had been before. Fun day but tiring.

Been having strange dreams again. Of course nothing about me or what I do is normal, but still. The other night I dreamt I had surgery and was able to walk again, the problem was that I was left with a deformed rear end. I thought I was worse off with the deformity then the fact that I could walk again. Don't remember what I dreamt last night, just know at some point I knew it was strange.

Got a pittance of rain yesterday. Honestly, I don't know know why Mother Nature even bothered. Other areas are getting rain, and even flooding, yet we cant seem to get more then just a teeny amount when it does rain. Cooler temperatures would also be helpful. Been walking around like a zombie because I cant sleep in the heat.

Haven't slept well lately, mostly due to the heat.

But I have been having strange dreams. One I had last night involved me traveling by plane. There was a long segment with me being in an airport. I don't know if I was flying for business or pleasure, but I had a sense that I was running from something.

Got a little bit of rain last night. It was nice, but wish it has lasted longer.

Had planned to do things this past week, but the time was off for a couple of things and everything else fell apart because of it.

The brutal heat wave should be over soon. Maybe we can get some much needed rain.

Haven't done any more then Ive needed to because I just don't have the energy for it.

I would like to thank Madame Mother Nature for the inch of rain we got last night. I was in the shower and thought I heard thunder. Didn't hear anything as I was drying off. It wasn't until I got in bed that I saw lightning and heard rain. It could the area down and gave us some rain, but we are still are in a heat advisory for the next few days. It's tough having this crap stalled over us.

Saw the Simpson's movie Monday night. It was better than I expected it was going to be. We were the first people in the theater and before the movie started, about eight other people showed up.

Extreme heat for the next week. Upper nineties and maybe even into the hundreds for a day or two. Still no rain and no chance of it for the coming future. Will come up with some things to occupy my time in the afternoon, cant do the things i would like or need to do because I don't want to get heat stroke.

Looks like it is gone to be very hot for the next week or so. July wasn't that bad, but it looks like August is going to make up for it. So far we ha vent had any measurable rain since the fourth of July.

Might go to a movie tonight. Don't know what we will do about dinner, but that's not important. Before we go to a movie , we have one errand we need to take care of.

Saw the movie "The Bourne Ultimatum" and it was really good. Had seen the previous two movies and wanted to see this. After we got out of the movie, we went to dinner. Mom's choice for her birthday dinner was Red Lobster, where we had a wait but it was worth it.
