How about that heat this weekend…and this week. I thought we weren’t supposed to swelter like this until August. Every year I forget about the impact heat has on me until I overdo it and end up comatose on the couch for no apparent reason…for example, Saturday morning I went to see the little league team we sponsor. All I did was sit on a bench for two hours. I was wiped out afterwards!

Heat is dangerous. Unfortunately, during the summer we tend to want to be outside playing. At least I do (which is why I spent several hours in the pool yesterday.) That’s great, but there are some things to keep in mind to keep yourself healthy. I found a great little guide on the OSHA web site this morning. I suggest printing it out and keeping it with you as a reminder. I also found an interesting blog post with some great suggestions.

Have a healthy, happy summer and take care of yourself!
