Texas humidity is back for the summer!

Just need to take one look at my hair, curling like crazy, and you know it is hot, Texas summer time. (It was straight this morning and I had bangs.)  I'm not complaining though.  We have a wonderful breeze right now - some might even call it wind!  Keeps you cool.

Cracks me up to watch people try to keep their hair and makeup looking sharp here.  There is practically no way.  Between the humidity and the wind, - forget about it.  It's a given.

Another thing that I was broken of, since moving to Texas, was worrying about my white legs showing in skirts and my feet in sandals.  In Kentucky, you would never catch this pale face walking around in my albino white legs and sandals that showed my too long toes.  Once you get in this heat, YOU DON'T CARE, and neither does anyone else. :)

Yep it is summer alright - it starts around May 1st and goes through sometime in October and even later in a bad year.  You do just get used to it, that and the AC.  Thank goodness I wasn't here before AC, I'm sure I would have melted down.

Don't Mess with Texas

United States Post Office

I received one of those peach colored pieces of paper telling me I had a package at the post office to be picked up - why it couldn't have been left on the front porch is beyond me, but probably because they didn't want to get out of the little mail mobile.  But I digress.  I got this on Thursday but couldn't get there on Friday so I was going to go Saturday morning.

Guess what!!!!  THEY ARE CLOSED ON SATURDAY MORNING NOW.

Let me get this straight...I pay more for stamps than I ever have and have one day less service.  Hmmmmm....

Did I mention that I get my neighbor's mail all the time?  That's another thing we are paying them more for I guess.

So let me get this straight - I'm a teacher.  If I get a pay increase, I can work one less day a week?  I LOVE that idea.
