I'm so glad that somebody else has had the same problems! I am making it a
rule that I will not accept work outside... not down here in 90+
temperatures 9 months out of the year! Will it restrict me? Maybe, but it
just isn't worth it.
I 'm getting a bumper sticker that says, "Clowns do it in the shade!!"
<grin>

BTW  where are you?

Penny, I can't tjank you enough for asking that question
we have had a heat wave hear and it has been in the 80's to mid 90's
every darn party was outside! we are above 7,000 feet and today I had
it. I use freash balloons but they didnt last more that 5 minutes. the
face paints were melting or drying up as I was trying to paint. It was
horrible. I thought I'd get heat stroke. there was,nt a tree or blade of
grass that gave shade. I've decided to tell parents that unless I can do
the balloons in the house or garage or carport with shade I will not do
them. I tried out the Old lady that swallowed a fly routine and it went
soso especially with the heat. I thought that a new twist on this could
be the ginger bread man story. Run.. run.. fast as you can! Well at this
point I'm running for air conditioning!  I will try the cooler thing but
it seems like alot of extra work. I still think asking nicely to do it
inside might be alot easier. Thanks to all who gave suggestions
