10 Things to Do When It's Too Hot to Go Outside
this one was *made* for me! because it's pretty much too hot to be outside here from June through the middle of September. instead of hibernating all Winter, i hibernate in the Summer because the Winter in Florida is great for being outside most days!
1. blog.
2. catch up on your favorite blogs.
3. make sure all your photos & music files are backed up.
4. watch a baseball game on tv.
5. if you're in the Tampa area (or near another domed baseball field), take in a baseball game -- and root for the team playing the Rays. ;-)
6. go to a movie -- or rent one!
7. read -- the library is your friend!
8. watch all those shows you recorded on your DVR.
9. take a siesta (because really, Winter is for *napping* -- long Winter's nap, see? -- but siesta makes me think of Mexico where it is *warm* like Summer).
10. organize something -- a drawer, a closest, the top of your desk.
7 with their own thoughts:
Siestas in hot weather are *awesome*. Just find a cool, shady spot, like a living room with the blinds drawn, and curl up until the sun starts its descent. :)
Organize something? You mean like someone's car that hasn't been cleaned in 5 years? ::coughcough::
Why organize when you can have FUN!
Aaaaaah, a siesta would do me well right now!
Most of those would be on my list too! Except maybe the baseball one, but we have the NFL network for that one :) I get a lot of reading done this time of year, while the hubs goes to sweat at the golf course and I sit inside the A/C and read :)
Watch a baseball game. Nothing else.
I love reading. I haven't been to the library in ages. I love the bargin book section at Barnes & Nobles.
It's too hot here to do anything but stay in the ac! i do lots of these, especially reading, but haven't been as productive with my photos or music files.
When daughter Liz spent a summer in Spain, she was VERY bummed to come home where there is NO siesta every afternoon! She thinks America isn't doing it correctly and wants to change it here!
