This summer has been fairly hot. The heat has caused me to look for ways to stay cool. One thing I have been doing is going for a swim at the beach. I enjoy the water and it’s been fun to spend a little time with the kids. They enjoy the beach as much as I.

I am looking forward to the cooler weather that is on the way. I like the winter just as much as the summer. I guess when winter comes I’ll be wishing for summer again. I guess that’s always the way it goes!

Grey’s Anatomy is on hiatus for the summer, and boy do I miss it! It’s easily my favorite drama series. I know that it has a reputation for being over the top at times. (The Izzie/Denny ghost sex was way too much in season five!) But when Grey’s is at its best, it’s one of TV’s most entertaining shows. I’ve never missed an episode, and I watch it on my satellite TV I got after researching direct tv prices near Miami.

I was hooked on the series from the start. My favorite character is Christina Yang, a smart, competitive jerk who dedicates her entire life and energy to being the best surgical resident at the fictitious Seattle Grace Hospital. Chris’s best friend is Meredith Grey, the lead character. They have a strong bond that is cemented in the fact that they are both passionate doctors and overly eager to get in on any surgery that passes through the hospital’s doors. I love that they are fiercely loyal to one another, and they always act as each other’s crying shoulder.

In last season’s finale, Meredith’s husband was almost killed by an enraged shooter who was loose in the hospital. Several of the show’s characters died, though none of the main characters obtained a fatal injury. I can’t wait to see where everyone stands when the show returns for season seven.

Beware of everything today! Today is April Fools’ Day and we must all be alert of the constant danger of practical jokes. While I don’t personally do too many jokes on people, (I think it’s a little rude) I have been known to enjoy the results of someone else’s efforts. I just hope that I can stay out of the cross hairs of any would be jokers today!

Since the weather is turning nice, my cats have been begging to go out every night. While I don’t mind that they do, I just wish they would come home at an earlier hour! I had to stay up a little later than I wanted waiting for them to come home. I could never sleep unless I knew they were safe.

My cats do provide our family with a lot of entertainment. They can be very funny at times especially when they have a box to play with. They also like to chase a string or a ball. Sometimes they will come and snuggle with me on the couch. I’m glad I have my pets to play with!

One thing that I have recently found out about is jazzercise. I always thought it was for really overweight people and never thought I would participate myself. It just so happens that one of the girls from work talked me into going with her and I must admit that I had a great time.

It felt good to really work up a sweat. I didn’t realize how much work it was. It looks easy and it is, but in the end you can really end up sore. Anyway, I met a lot of people and the whole thing was a blast. I think I’ll start going on a regular basis.
