ten things tuesday...

Ten things about hot and humid days:

1) Living in Northern Maine, we don't get a lot of hot & humid weather, so when we do, we kind of don't know how to handle it.

2) School days drag minute by minute when it's above 80 degrees in the classroom. Today I got up to 89 degrees.

3) Sweaty bodies in a classroom are aromatic. Not necessarily in a good way.

4) Hot & humid days make me puff up. My eyes, fingers, ankles are all puffy.

5) I don't sleep well when it's hot and humid. That makes me drowsy at weird times during the day.

6) Not sleeping also makes me a bit short-tempered. Which is unfortunate when it's the beginning of the school year and I need to be extra patient as students get to know me and I get to know them.

7) Whining doesn't help.

8) Today the Senior class bought Popsicles for the student body. It was a real treat in the middle of the afternoon.

9) Although whining doesn't help, sometimes it good to get things off your chest.

10) Cold, cold water is fantastic.

I feel you. Lucky you, though, that it's not humid all the time, like it is here...it's the most miserable part about living in FL.
