Today we had a very nice summer storm, we were getting pretty dry and needed some rain well we got a bunch today and it was accompanied by a lot of thunder and lightning, some hit very close to our house but we never lost power, one good thing about living so close to the airport, they get our power back on very quick when it does go out. Diva our smallest and youngest dog was very unhappy with the thunder, shaking and wanting to be held she is pretty fearless but today she really was the baby of our family.

Our warehouse is in dire need of repairs to the roof, it leaks and in spots you can actually see the sunshine through it. We have decided to go with metal roof coating to seal out the weather and make our building dry again. We went with this process that also blocks the sun and helps keep the building cool.
We did some looking around and the very best price we could find was from Solar Cool they have a product that reflects the heat and helps keep the building cool as well as keeping out the weather too. My dad has been a roofing contractor for as long as I can remember, he is retired now but he told me that this process would only cost about as much as painting the roof but would protect a lot more and would work for what we need. Solar Cool has a great price on this process and we are going to have our roof repaired and at the same time we will be keeping our building cooler and the biggest part we will save a load of money at the same time.

During the summer months I try harder to drink more water, it keeps my hydrated and makes me feel better at the same time. I cut down on the sodas and only try to drink water and juices, I do not always keep to this regime but I try. I also try to eat more salads and stuff not as filling in the summer. Again I do not keep to this as well as I should but I try. We walk the dogs early in the morning and late at night to beat the heat as much as we can. Just remember it is only 3 more month until winter then we can complain about the cold and not worry about the heat as much.

Ever since I decided I wanted a new car I have been shopping with an eye to find my next new car. I have the list narrowed down to 3 or 4 the one that has jumped to the top of my want list is the LandRover Freelander, this is the perfect vehicle for us tough and very stylish at the same time. Just finding the right one for us is the mission right now.
The site I have found the very best prices on a Landrover is Buy Your Car, this is a UK site but they have great prices and Landrovers in stock ready to ship. I have always wanted a majestic vehicle like the landRover and this year will be my chance to find the right one for us and get it parked in my garage. Searching for a new car on the Internet takes patience and some skill for searching in the less likely places. I really like the selection on the Buy Your Car site and will continue to check in there to see what they have in stock.

Now is the quiet time before football season starts the teams are in training camp getting ready for the season. The players have left their homes and headed to the cities they play for and are preparing to sweat and get ready for the upcoming season. The local team here the Titians started training camp on Friday and are getting ready for what the players, coaches and fans hope is a great season, season three of the Vince Young era. In just about six weeks the season starts for real and I for one can not wait for it to get going.
