We are in Dallas and have been for the weekend. It is so hot here with no relief in sight. Yesterday we went to Denny's for dinner and had to park in the back 40 in the only available spot. We walked to the restaurant and had a delicious meal in the cool comfort. After eating I told Ron that he had to go get the truck and come up front to pick me up because I burned too easily and the heat felt like I was on fire even in a breeze. All I wanted to do was stay in the truck for the rest of the time. Opening the door is like having a blast furnace in your face.
We are picking up a load this evening and heading out for a morning delivery in Houston. Hopefully we will be getting out of this "oven" and heading for someplace cooler soon. This kind of heat can certainly make a person lazy!
We did our usual socializing Saturday at Walmart. What a crowd! Then I discovered that Texas, as well as a few other states, offers TAX-FREE back to school sales. No wonder there were people everywhere. It's too bad that Indiana doesn't offer such a thing. They offer no sales tax on school supplies as well as school clothing for a limited time. Texas has a 3-day weekend and Ron told me that Florida holds the sale for a week. How wonderful for the working class and single parents.
We watched a delightful movie on Saturday night on the gmc channel(gospel music channel). The movie title is "Trinity Goodheart". It's a story of broken families trying to be brought together by a young girl. It was sponsored by Focus on the Family and was just a touching story that we highly recommend. Since we're still sharing this computer I better close and let Ron have his turn. Until next time . . . . . . . .
