13 Reasons I Left the 4
th of July Festivities
- 1. It was hotter than Henry’s crack!
- 2. I’m not eating a lot of sweets right now….and the funnel cakes were too tempting!
- 3. We didn’t have any of those fold up canvas chairs
- 4. I couldn’t find the people painting faces…and I really wanted a frog or bug or something
- 5. Did I mention that it was hotter than snot?
- 6. And my hair was stuck to my forehead
- 7. And there was a river of sweat running down my chest…I know lovely…
- 8. My Sno-Cone was gone
- 9. There was a fabric sale at Yates Remnant Store and I didn’t have money
- 10. There was 45 more minutes to wait until the parade started
- 11. I realized that the parade would be a bunch of cars with city officials waving…boring…
- 12. I remembered that the man who belly dances in the parade has retired
- 13. Did I mention that it was so hot that it felt like hell was rolling in?

Wow, sounds like a hot day! :) I don't blame you for leaving -- I'm not a big hot weather person, either, LOL.
Happy TT, and thanks for visiting mine! Have a great holiday weekend.
Hotter than snot. Now there's an image LOL...
I'm with you on the funnel cakes, I don't think I could have withstood the temptation either.
Happy TT.
Oh dear! I can imagine the hot day for you :)
Funnel cakes! Yum! Yum!
Happy Thursday!
I get the picture! ;-) Can you please send some warmth over here? For summer it's way too chilly!
Thanks for visiting my handfasting TT!
We had one reason for leaving - RAIN! LOL on the belly dancing man.
hmmmm...hot huh? It rained here almost all day long!
Heat is a bummer when you want to be outside...
I know what you mean about the parade. The first year we were in our house there was a parade that went down our street. It was nothing other than cars, tow trucks, firetrucks, tractors, even a funeral hearse.Of course everyone waves. I stood there thinking what in world am I looking at?
How Funny! LOL! By the way...how hot is Henry's crack? ROTFL!!!
Yeah, how hot is Henry's crack? LOL! I didn't go either. Why do I need to torture myself through the heat and traffic just to spend 20 minutes watching a bunch of fireworks that really don't thrill me anyway?!!!! I stayed home and watched my rebel neighbors shoot fireworks. It was free, no traffic, I watched them from the porch in my pj's, and all I had to do to get home was walk inside!
OMG I loved it. I giggled over the hotter than Henry's crack. That's a new one on me.
I would do the same if I have to wait that long for the parade to start on a hot summer day.
Thanks for stopping by and for welcoming me at TT!
hahhaa...it can't be any hotter than malaysia??
LOL My snow cone was gone LOL I hear you on that one. Great list. Happy 100th TT Celebration!
I didn't go to any celebrations yesterday. We had a friend over for a BBQ and that was fun enough. It was hotter than blazes here too. Happy TT.
So why did you leave? Oh yeah, btw, was it hot?
LOL #1, 12 and 13.
I think I would have left too if the Belly dancing guy retired too!
Happy TT and hope you had a happy 4th.
