Top Ten Things I Don't Miss About Arizona

1. Being burnt by the seat belt, steering wheel and anything else in my car (one time I left my debit card in the car and I had to order a new one because the heat deformed it)
2. Not being able to breathe for ten minutes after getting into my 130 degree car and by the time it cooled down I was at my destination and my back was wet with sweat.
3. A breeze feels like a blow dryer in your face and shade does not feel cooler
4. On a nice day heading to the Zoo to find everyone else had the same idea
5. Expensive car insurance (Car thefts, red light runners and grouchy irritated hot drivers)
6. Air conditioning bills (running the air conditioner from Easter to Thanksgiving)
7. Snow birds (when the weather becomes nice the traffic gets worse, restaurants, shopping and other fun things to do are too crowded)
8. Flat (In the Valley and west to California)
9. Getting home from the grocery store as quickly as possible so my ice cream wouldn't melt and other items would not go bad
10. Jumping into a warm pool on a hot summer day
