Hot days and warm nights

Hot hot hot!  This past week was a scorcher but not as bad as last month one or July.  But still pretty bad and what made it even worse was some of the nights were warm!  Usually depend on the nights cooling down but they never did for the most part and it just stayed relatively warm.  It was cool from like the hours of 4AM to 7AM till it started to warm up again... my electric bill can't take this!  I am part of this program too where SoCal Edison can shut off my AC during peak times to prevent a brown-out and so far they haven't this week which surprises me.  I really want to get solar but not sure if the upfront costs are worth it and I hear to have it pay itself off ranges from 8 to 10 years... I would love a Tesla roof though!

Weekly Update:
Poor Shadow had another turn for the worse and hoping it could just be temporary but unlikely.  She started having a lot of diarrhea and couldn't stop.  Thought it was from too many treats or being over feed (because time is so short for her now), but it's likely the tumor on her stomach.  Vet may prescribe some meds to help that but who knows if that will help in the short time left.  She shows NO other signs of being sick.  She still jumps up for food, wants all the attention and sleeps like a log.  You would never guess she is so sick inside.  Aside from always trying to go poop or pooping all over, she is still the same Shadow.  Still doesn't listen, still expects her spot on the bed, dog bed and/or floor available at all times.

At the movies:
Holding on to the top spot for another week is "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings" for another 13.3 mil and now just shy of the 200 mark with 196.5 mil domestic cume.  Should hit the mark in another day or two but the overall drops on the film are well below-average which is good.  New at #2 is Dear Evan Hansen with 7.5 mil and solid reviews.  Could have some legs to get it to 20 mil.  Drop down to #3 is "Free Guy" with 4.1 mil as it solidifies itself in the 100 mil club.  Can't shake this one at #4 is, "Candyman" continues to perform with another 2.5 mil.  And drop down to #5 is "Cry Macho" with 2.1 mil extra as it cry's itself to sleep.
