Re: so I am wondering....


When I was not seated safely in my truck, Donna, I was trying to remain upright as I walked. No snow angels.

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.

I know what you mean Noreen.  It was 78 about 5pm yesterday and 29
by 5 am
this morning.  Is that SICK or what?  Just got all the tender plants
in.
Only lost one, amazingly enough.  Now I have to go fill my bird
feeders w/
sleet coming down no less. If I ever hear anyone here complain about
100
degrees again I am going to SLAP them.  Ughhhhhh.

That is the way ours was the night it snowed.  Was in the 70's in

the  a.m.
and by late afternoon it was 36 degrees.  BRRRRRRRRRRRR.  Then  that
evening it
snowed!  Thankfully we didn't drop down below freezing  though.

Saw the other day that the high in Montana was minus 35.
HIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I could have died.  I dont' even know how people,  much less
animals can
live in such cold.  My car has a fit if it is below  50.
