Re: coping in HEAT! (Ken GreyEagle)

[Guest guest]

Ken,

Oh yes, I know where Mercer Island is. Used to take the Mercer Island

bridge on occasion to get from I-5 to I-405 whenever there was a

backup (due to accidents) on the Evergreen Point bridge. I lived in

Seattle near the U-District for about four years, back in the early

80's. Worked in Redmond for GTE back then. I live in Florida now,

can't even get my husband to go visit Seattle with me. He thinks it

rains 24/7/365 there. I can't convince him otherwise. I loved waking

up to the sight of Mt. Rainier. Sure aren't any mountains in Florida

nor anything like the Pike Place Market in downtown Seattle. Ah,

memories...

By the way Ken, what's a " Weather Bug " ? I've never heard of it before.

We've actually had very little rain this summer....I sure wish I could've

somehow plopped your husband down right in the middle of Seattle for the

past week or so. That would change his view of Seattle in a hurry! LOL!

The heat has made it difficult to manage my diabetes. It gets too hot I don

t feel like eating. I don't feel like eating bg's go too low. At least I

haven't had lows low enough to end up at the hospital or doctor.

Weather Bug is a little program you can configure to always give you the

daily and weekly forcast for your area. You can check it out at weatherbug

com. I've noticed the Weather Channel has something similar now and some of

our local News Stations too.

Thanks Ken,

I'll check out that web site for the weather bug.

I have friends who still live up near Everett, bet they are melting

in that heat too.

Do you eat yogurt? I put fresh blueberries in my yogurt and then

freeze it, makes for a cold treat on a hot day. If I remember

correctly the Yakima valley produced huge blueberries out there in

Washington State. Yum!

I think everyone's appetite goes down whenever the temperatures go

up. I eat lots of fresh/raw food in the summer. I hate to heat up the

house with the oven or stove so I use the microwave a lot to cook

chicken, especially if I just plan to cool it and slice it up to go

into salads.

Keep those blood sugars up, we don't want you ending up in the

hospital.

Be safe, Myla
