Re: so I am wondering....


Jim, did you go make a snow angel... since you were out anyways?
 
I don't care for this frigid weather (currently 11, but feels like minus 4 and
falling) but I also don't like 100..... (go ahead and slap me Pam)
 
I am not so sure I would like living in an area that only changes maybe 20
degrees throughout the year.  At least here, you get a break from the routines
to do something else....
 
Wondering how california folks are doing... just read about the flooding.

I'll drink to that. I could use 100 degrees right now. In spite all my
good intentions about staying in and watching it out the window, I had
to go out today, slipping and sliding all the way to Radio Shack and
back.
