“Well, it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance on this hot, very hot summer afternoon. But then, we do like it hot, don’t we, Rosemary?” “Oh yes, Ginger, we do love it when it sizzles!” While the Spice Sisters might like it sizzling hot in our book Happily Ever After Everyone Else, I am not a fan of the extremely hot and humid days we recently experienced here in Atlanta.

(In fact, I can’t even find my list!) It would be so easy to mentally walk myself to the classroom blackboard and write “I will keep my New Year’s Resolutions” over and over again, but I am not go
