Humidity

The effects of humidity on my wall calendar.  =0(

We are no strangers to humidity!  Growing up in Tennessee and living in FL for 8.5 years... and some other humid places as well... we've met & gotten to know humidity well!

However, we know humidity on a whole new level here.  I guess it is due to the lack of air conditioning in our home.  We do have one small room with a/c (our bedroom), but we only run it at night while we are sleeping.  (Don't feel sorry for the kids... they say they get cold at night with their fans!  They are like the Indonesians in that respect!)

As you can see in the picture above, my calendar is a bit droopy... and this is the DRY season!  Some of our shoes have mildewed.  Eeww.  So have some of our suitcases & things inside them (like my purse).  Yuck.  And of course, when you need your clothes to dry... and it is humid... they don't.

BUT the plus side... is our weather is not nearly as hot as what some of you are experiencing in the Southern United States.  You can always check our weather here on our blog (look to the right).  We pretty much hang out in the 80s.  Sometimes it might slip down to the 70s at night or up into the low 90s during the day.  This is due to our altitude.  When we move to the other island next year... we will continue to have the humidity... but we'll have a LOT more heat to accompany it... all still without an air conditioned house.

Here's to ICE WATER!
