I do like the cooler temps, I'm practically the Queen of the Pasty Skinned Mayo Folk, I'm so white, so I don't deal with the heat as well - plus, only 1 half of my body sweats, so it can be extra miserable. But, the weather/temps we get, is what we get and I hide in the house with the fans/AC when it's really warm. I appreciate when the weather balances out enough to give me a break to catch up on things and have a brief reprieve from overheating.

We jokingly call it "having a Braveheart moment." I've had all the tests, they don't know why it happens, it just does - the tests determined that it isn't a part if any other issue. Been happening since the spring of 2018. (not me in photo)

Oh I love the rain and cool days mixed in summer. My post was a shot at myself for being a dink to undercoverbrother last week.

Oooh.....we needed the rain so badly and this is the best kind of rain. Constant and slow so the ground absorbs it.

Heavy stuff coming Calgarys way, if it isn’t already there. Been getting soaked in Priddis. Probably the heaviest constant rain we’ve gotten all year

Currently watching a crackhead scream at the lightning for being too bright and potentially giving him a seizure.

It's equal parts really sad but slightly hilarious

That reminds me of the guy yelling at the police helicopter for shining its spotlight on him while he hid in a bush.
