I'm not abusing the blog...

...I just want to paint a picture for those who haven't experienced "coastal living" yet. (Juan told me that I shouldn't use the blog to complain, and I agree, so feel free to feel sorry for us, but don't feel obligated. Also, I threw in a couple of "good things" on my "bad things" list to offset my guilt.) Did it work? Yes, so here it is:

Humidity Top Ten
  1. Frizzy hair
  2. "Hotter than it really is"
  3. Beautiful, green vegetation everywhere (good thing)
  4. Sweaty feet
  5. High electric bills
  6. Sad baby
  7. Hydrated skin and hair (good thing)
  8. Moldy bread
  9. Soggy chips and cookies
  10. Mosquitoes, etc.

11. Don't need to adjust the sprinklers every spring.
12. Opportunities to sing hymns:
Count your many blessings
There is beauty all around
For the beauty of the earth
(You can fill in the rest.)

Okay, okay, the guilt is setting in...

Vent away. Seriously.
I hate the humidity. I don't think until anyone has lived through a SUMMER with humidity that they fully understand. It can be awful. From about May until October/November we rarely leave the house and our air conditioner. :)
So trust me I fully understand what you are going through.

13. too hot to want to turn on your oven & bake... BOO!
