31-Day Fun Challenge
Simple Pleasures in a Walk
Day 1 in my quest to be more fun
It has been HOT in Texas. I mean “blister your bare feet, and don’t go out after 10 AM” hot. Triple digits for a week hot — thermometer heat. High humidity accompanied that heat. Sometimes it’s felt like 115F.
A killing heat — literally.
Imagine my apprehension when my husband said a blouse I had ordered had been delivered. Not to our front door, though. It was in our mailbox. Our mail gets delivered to a central location that is divided into locked boxes assigned to each home. It’s a quarter mile from our house.
It was 3:00 PM when he told me, the hottest part of the day. Oh, no!!!
Delight!!!
Imagine my surprise when I glanced with trepidation at the outdoor thermometer device we keep on our bar. I expected the worst.
Maybe I’d just drive.

Today was an unimaginable gift. It was COOL! A light breeze, 84F, 35% humidity, and blissful clouds. Ahhh! Delightful. A perfect day to walk to my mailbox and back. A glorious day.
