Monday Grumble

Seems like I'm doing a bit of that lately.  Very windy, you'd think that would cool things off a bit---HA!  HUMID!  And if there was a word to describe beyond humid I'd use is. The Thesaurus says it's soggy, dank, mucky, sticky and clammy.  That would pretty much describe our morning.
Careful walk this morning, lots of branches down, another tree down, fell from the neighbor's yard into ours, not a very big one thank goodness.  The ground is just so saturated, it has rained every day this last week.  I really feel for the folks in Texas, we're not getting a lot of rain, just frequent rain, can't even imagine the amounts they're getting.
Tomorrow we're going to renew our driver's licenses, have to go in person because we have to have a vision test.  Also have to bring proof of name (passport, birth certificate etc), proof of your social security number (the ss. card, W-2 etc) and 2 bills showing your current address.  This is getting ridiculous.  Our county doesn't have a DMV so it's either go out to Hinesville, about 35 miles from here or Savannah, about 20 miles from here.  Savannah is closer, but far more people.  That's where we're going though so we're hoping it won't be too bad.
Afterwards we'll be near Hunter Army Airfield and we can go to the commissary.
Cleaned and shined the bedroom floor, it always looks so much better and it's easy to do, I shouldn't be so lazy about doing it.
Hope your week has started well.

  1. You would think that the wind would cool things down, wouldn't you? I wonder when it'll start getting less humid.

  2. Thought we would get some rain by now, but all we have is the sticky, muggy air. Everything feels damp. Hardly any breeze here, the mug just hangs, making it miserable.

  3. We are seeing many photographs of Houston on our television They say there has been a year's rainfall in two or three days. Can't imagine it.

  5. One word for beyond humid? Houston! My husband had to do the same thing to get his license renewed. Apparently we've had years of lack scrutiny and people were being issued a drivers license and a state identification card. New rule says you can't (after all you really don't need both) have both. One or the other, but not both.

  6. Very hot and humid in France today, spent all afternoon hiding indoors. No walks until my knee is better. Things should be cooling off later in the week. The pictures we are seeing of Houston and Texas are shocking.

  8. Good Luck !
    The DMV in Tucson is fast and easy. Thank Goodness after living in California it would take hours to do the simplest thing.

  11. I just had to renew my picture license this summer. The process here is pretty quick. The flooding is unreal. It will take a long time to put things back in some sort of order. -Jenn

  12. I really dislike all that palava of having to prove that you are really you and not anyone else. It gets more difficult each year with the letters with addresses on as all the untility companies, banks and etc want you to be paperless! Hope you don't have to wait too long for your licenses:)

  13. The heat was unbearable yesterday in the UK and trying to sleep at night was impossible. I resorted to using an electric fan - which rarely sees the light of day. One day was all it was needed for... one day and back to the cold. I'm fed up. Goodness knows how I would cope if I lived in Texas. I really feel for those people.

  14. I checked my licenses and ID's yesterday, just incase something was expiring. I hate waiting in line. I hope you slipped through without a long wait:)
