Happy Friday!

Man it's hot. How hot? I'm glad you asked...it's so hot I saw two trees fighting over a dog. Thank you, thank you very much. hahahahahahahaha

When I got in my car to go home yesterday, my temperature thingy said it was 108 out! This whole next week is going to be in the upper 90's. Yuck. I'm SO GLAD Mom got a new AC a couple months ago. It's too hot to sit around being hot.

I'm not watering the lawn, that's kind of a lost cause right now. But I'm still watering my tomato plant and all my new flowers. So far, they're all still alive! I feel very accomplished :-)

I don't think anybody has anything to do this weekend but stay indoors. It's a good plan. I expect to be quilling and reading this weekend. My favorite things.


this is from a Q&A on the penalty if you don't buy health insurance;
•Can I be exempt from the tax? Yes. The economic hardship exemption is available to avoid the tax penalty. You're eligible if:


◦You have a religious objection
◦You are not lawfully present in the United States
◦You are in prison
◦The cheapest health care plan available on your state's insurance exchange would cost more than 8% of your annual income
◦You are a member of an Indian tribe
◦You experience only short gaps in coverage
◦You have suffered a hardship with respect to the capability to obtain coverage

Ummm, a religious objection? Ohhhhhh, I can't wait to see how that's interpreted!
