Okay, so class, who is excited about summer? I am. I don't even know why I'm excited about summer. I don't even get any benefit from summer. Like you amazing teachers or you amazing college students do or high school students. It's the same old same old for me, except it's just hot.

And let me just tell you for all of you people that do not live in Texas and don't know Texas in the summer is not even like normal hot. Don't don't even talk to me if you are from Georgia or South Carolina because I've lived in both those places. I lived in Athens and I lived in Greenville, South Carolina. I've been to Atlanta. I've been to Columbia, which are basically like the sweatiest armpits of the South. And they still do not compare to Dallas heat.

Those of you who live outside of the greatest state in the United States have no idea what I'm talking about. See, because in Georgia or in South Carolina and probably in other places in the southeast, you can get in the water or you can go in the shade and it gets cooler as it should. Like I feel like that's how science works. That's normal. That's like normal sunshade behavior relationship. That is not the case in Texas.

In Texas, you go in the shade and it's like, oh, cool. It just got darker, but it's still just as hot. Great. You get in the water for a refreshing dip and you're like, oh, awesome. I am in a boiling cauldron. That's great. I love it. Might as well just like go grab my lufa real fast because this water is literally my bath super helpful. There's literally like no relief from heat in Texas.

One summer when I was in high school, those of you who do live in Texas might remember this was probably like almost 10 years ago now because I'm old. We had a heat advisory for 30 days. If you don't know what a heat advisory is, like do not even complain about the heat to me. A heat advisory is usually issued when it is so grossly hot outside that people could die. Okay, like their life could be over because of the sun.

We weren't supposed to go outside at all during this heat advisory in high school, but you know, you got to get tan, especially in high school. I remember trying to lay out and my body immediately like had these red welts all over it. Like what what the heck. Like it's cookie in the freaking oven down here.

We have like five days in Texas, maybe of 80 degree weather until God is like no, nope, no, you shall no longer enjoy the outdoors. I mean, when you think about it, kind of makes sense. It's like God made Texas the best place to live in the entire world. So he was like, you can't have it all.

You can't have manageable weather and an awesome economy and no income tax. So here you go. Here's some insane property tax and 150 degree heat from which there is no recourse. So you're welcome.

All this to say though, sometimes I go down the rabbit hole. You guys know this. I still love the summer. It's my favorite time of the year despite the heat despite the sweat that happens like as soon as you walk outside.

Maybe I like it because fourth of July is my favorite holiday fun fact and maybe because it's the only time of year that I have any hope of having any pigment in my skin once

however, those of you who have olive skin like you know the struggle. If you're pale and you have all of skin, you are green. There's no all I'm pale and beautiful when you have all of skin is like you're either tan or you're on your deathbed. There's no one between so I am looking forward to having pigment in my skin. I think we're actually maybe going to go on vacation this summer, possibly we haven't been on one since our honeymoon to a half years ago. So we might be doing that.

If you have good affordable suggestions on where to go, please let me know our only requirements are pool food, the place has to have food. So none of those you know fasting resorts that you guys know about.

And golf not for me, but for my husband, but fun fact about me is I actually did play golf in high school. I was actually captain. Yes, Ali said he was the captain of the golf team in high school, which is actually just a huge joke because when I was there our girls golf team was so awful and I was so awful.

But that's just some Ali trivia for you. So there you go. That actually does believe it or not lead into kind of what this episode ever relatable will be.

In episode that talks about kind of my story who I am my Christian walk I won't go into absolutely everything because we don't have 25 hours.
