Okay, Miss Chiquita, I am so glad you posted this, because now I can whine, damn it!!!
I am SO bloody sick of this freakin warm weather in the winter!! I miss the snow.
Not even one freakin inch this winter.
I miss covering myself in thick, cozy quilts at night with flannel pjs on----hell, even with the heat off, I still need the window open to be cool enough to sleep!
I miss toasting myself in front of the fire on the weekends------it's warm enough that I'd have to open multiple doors/windows if I lit a damn fire!!!
There. I feel better.

Belle, come on down to New Mexico, we have had a fire going for 2 weeks straight, I have socks on my socks, and fleece slipper boots. Brrrr

Don't tempt me!!!
Of course then I'll probably whine about being cold. :blinkie:
Good thing I'm a desert rat.
Here it is mid-January and we have had very little snow. We had snow one day that lasted all of a few hours, then melted. It has been extremely warm (and wet). We are now dealing with flooding rains. The river near me is spilling over the banks, and the creeks are flooding as well. Today is the last day of rain and warm weather. Tonight it is going into the 20's and tomorrow it is going to be in the low 30's, which means everywhere there is standing water will freeze.
We might get snow later this week. At least now that the temps are going to be more winter-like, I will be able to wear my new coat and scarves I made in anticipation of cold weather.
I'm done whining. For now, at least
Was that me complaining about the lack of cold and snow?
Well, we have snow-------blizzard conditions several days last week---------although not as much as usual.
Today, it is -8F;with the wind chill, it is
23 below zero!!! Cold enough that school has been cancelled in our area and all the surrounding counties. :blinkie:
My car did not want to start this am----it finally did, but it has never done that before.
I have a headache solely as a result of walking from my car to the gym entrance.
I have a bad cold and feel and look like dirt.
Now where the hell is spring?!!!!
