Cyclelops, sounds like you overdid it with the painting. My sisters and I joke that our family motto is "Excess is best" -- we always over-exercise, over-spend, over-eat, etc. Take it easy if you can. The yellow dog sounds like a good homeopathic remedy. And I can't imagine living in your weather...it was 70 degrees here today. But you are right -- in the summer we have to stay in our air-conditioned caves!
