Keeping cool on a budget

I mentioned in an earlier post how Mark and I are tightening our belts.  More on why later (it's a great reason!).  One way I have found to keep cool is to consume as many freezie pops as I can possibly handle.  And by handle I mean hold and type.  I can manage two rather skillfully.  Double fisting the ole freezie pops.  Ahhhhh...life doesn't get much better than this.  (my nifty little camera focused on the flag...sure I could have made an adjustment, but I kinda like it...puts things into perspective.)
