Oh,RN, Dolphin, I have the same sort of experience trying to do anything in the sun. I absolutely cannot go outdoors without sunglasses, so I really feel for you. I am one of the fortunate (NOT) people who have hidious migraines. The whole thing, numbness, loss of sight, vomiting. It is a thousand times worse in summer. Any glint of light off a bumper or a windshield or anything can bring one on. But even if I don't get a migraine, exposure to the sun leves me feeling sick, just as you described. And having had a heat stroke once, it weakens the system and makes it more vaunerable. If I let myself get to the point of profuse sweating, I'm in trouble. The only thing that can cool me is standing in a cold shower for at least 30 min. If I am able to stop the heat exposure before it gets that bad, then I have exactly the same thing you experience. I would love nothing more than to move to a place where the sun never shines and it rains constantly. I grew up in Oregon, and I never tired of the rain. How on earth did a couple of women who hate heat end up in Hell? Since I'm up in the mountains, it really is 10 degrees cooler, but 98 vs 108, not working for me. My dream is to live in the Olyimpian Rain Forest in Washington. My grandson and I went there from July 1 to July 10 summer before last, and it rained or drizzled on us every day. We were so happy we could hardly contain it.

RN SUNRVROSE - I went to respond to your Scrabble question in your folder and discovered you don't seem to have one. So I'll respond here. You don't need to download the game. You just go to www.games.com and scroll down to near the bottom on the Right Hand Side, where it says Arcade and Board Classics. Then Click on Scrabble and you're in. It's better if you register, it's free. I'm MameBlanche there too! As for how long with dialup... I don't know. I haven't had dial up in years. But its worth a try. And drop by my folder and let me know if you join, and what your nickname is there. And maybe we can set a time and go play there. Best of luck.

RN Sunrvrose: Yeah it does feel like hell here every summer and I do threaten to move to Alaska or something during the hot months LOL. I moved here with my family in 1977 and well no matter how many times I leave, it keeps calling me back, so I finally gave up lol. Yeah my doc thinks I had Heat Exhaustion when I was little. I came home and layed on my bed naked under the fan for a half hour and I feel better from then, but still not well. I know tomorrow will be better... It will just take a few days to get back on my feet from this. I am surprised I didn't get the full blown migraine today too. I had my Imitrex in hand ready to take it. Did you come down for the Salmon Festival today? We danced infront of the State Theater.

Right now I'm sick with a cold. Stayed in bed all day and watched all 4 hours of Spike Lee's documentary "When the Levees Broke" today and cried with tears streaming down my face from sadness and anger for probably 40% of the show.

RN I had a lovely weekend and hope you all did, too! Spent today at the flock and fiber festival and spent all the money I won at the car show on some lucious hand-painted yarns. Now I just need time to knit it all into wonderful things! RN, I just finished updating my bowling league information. Almost forgot to do it! RN, I'm heading to bed because I have a TON of work to do tomorrow since I took so much time for myself this weekend. I think it's a good trade! LOL RN, hoping all who are feeling ill or sad or overly heated get better soon and that Monday doesn't weigh too heavily on anyone! Oh, and RN, Yankee, I agree about Spike Lee's documentary.

RN I just narrowly averted my curtains catching ablaze. It was a stupid mistake on my part, an oversight, but I was able to notice the smoke and stop the curtains from actually lighting up. <whew> Although I do need new curtains now...
