I DID IT!

I went to the pool yesterday! It was 75 degrees and sunny. It felt like 82. Still not quite hot enough, but I went anyway. Yes, I wore a swim suit. Yes, I put sunblock SPF 50 on me. Yes, I took snacks and a book. NO, I DID NOT GET INTO THE WATER! Are you crazy??!! My boys did, though.

Then, in a real rush of joy for marking the beginning of summer, I turned the a/c on in my car when we were coming home. Of course, I had to freeze us out because to get it to "blow like we like it" I had to set it to 59 degrees!! The boys thought that was funny, because in TX, the lowest we could get it was 74 (it only cools 20 degrees less than the outside temp), and typically, it was more like 78 or 80 degrees inside the car ("blowing like we like it"). So, we get home and think we'll linger in the swimsuits for awhile and sip on some lemonade. Well, it was a little chilly for that, so we changed clothes and still had lemonade. No nap. The heat didn't "take it out of us".

Regardless, we, Michelle, Autry and Charlie can now say, "Summer is here".
