Lately I am so tired. I think it's the high temperatures that just zap any energy. The couple of days I slept until 5 or later instead of the usual 4. I also did the yoga followed by the treadmill and swim. Today I didn't feel like driving the extra distance to go to the other club. I just did my... Sign in to see full entry.

Oh Kabu! Winter is so much easier than this extreme heat. It's stifling even outside of the car! I didn't drink as much water. I'm kinda tired of having to get up so often when I'm sleeping. Maybe once it cools more I'll do it again. It was slow at first last night dashing. Then it picked up about... Sign in to see full entry.

It was so hot last night. No rain to cool it off. Another night in paradise! At least it was quiet. I did the usual workout on the treadmill. I did change the cool down speed. I managed to do almost eight thousand steps. Right now I have already completed the ten thousand and still going. Breakfast... Sign in to see full entry.

Last night a truck had to be towed. Not sure if mechanical or security issues. The security guard was making all kinds of notes and then filmed the loading of the truck. There were spot storms again yesterday. It didn't cool off as much as that severe heat warning but still enough to breathe without... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday the heat index at 116 made it impossible for me to even think about doordashing. I waited until 5pm to start. Luckily I received an order right away. So no need to sit and marinate in my sweat. Around 8pm I started seeing signs of lightning in the distance. I drove back to PJs and lo and... Sign in to see full entry.

It was suffocating last night in the car. I'm going to have to roll the windows down more in order to survive the heat this week. It's 100 already today with the heat index at 116. Severe heat warning until 5pm tonight. I woke this morning slightly sick to my stomach. I decided to take it easy on my... Sign in to see full entry.

Last night wasn't too bad until about the middle of the night and then bam! Heat wave. I wish I could roll my windows down completely. For those suggesting I need electrolytes. I do drink alkaline water with electrolytes added into it. I bought eleven gallons so I still have some more. I will make... Sign in to see full entry.

I think until the fall I will cut back even more on my beginning hours and lengthen my end of shift hours. It's not that great at the beginning and I made double in 2 hours of what I had made 3.5 hours. Most of first hour I just sit there. Yesterday I finally made it to those 97 ounces of water. Not...

Kristie, a fellow dasher, is on vacation for the weekend. We try to help each other. We alert the other of slow places or excessive drivers. It makes life a little easier. We also trade stories about deliveries as well as things DD does that boggles the mind. I've noticed that the security guard... Sign in to see full entry.

Last night's dash was okay. I'm not so stressed since I stopped dashing so many lunches of nothing but cheap orders. I did dash today for lunch as usual less than $20. It was a little cooler last night. I didn't wake up sweating to use the facilities. I did sleep until almost 5:30 though. So nice. I... Sign in to see full entry.
