THIS is the temp right now. THIS! Tigger the Dog ran out to do her business, her paws hit the snow and she ran right back in. I had to encourage (force) her into to completing the task outside. She’s still shooting me looks of death. I love drama so I love the drama of this deep freeze. I love chatting about what it could be like and later, what it was like. I love hearing stories of slips and slides and, I know it’s totally wrong, but I love to hear stories of doom and gloom. But this is freakin’ cold. I’m pretty sure the wall I have my desk set up near has no insulation. Unfortunately, the iPhone doesn’t do inside/actual temps or I’d take it to prove my point. It's cold. I grew up in Kenya. And this is the temp there right now. Husband is Scottish, and therefore should be conditioned to ‘weather’ but this is the temp in Greenock, his hometown, right now. And it is not 7 degrees. Did you know that Scotsmen can be quite prolific when cussing about the weather? When cussing about all things really but boy, can he go on about the weather! Anyway, to sum up, it ain’t warm out there. Oh. And we don’t have the kitchen floor totally installed and only a quarter of the den has floor and the kitchen was due to be installed at the end of this week but the hardwood floor still needs to be installed, sanded, varnished and left for 72 hours… I’d rather talk about the weather. Heck, I’d rather go OUT in the weather right now that deal with this drama… I'm off to put on all my clothes.

Brrrr. Having lived the 2nd third of my life (thus far!) in the Lands of Celcius, I've grown accustomed to the low numbers. But 7 degrees F? I'm with you. My hubby is a third generation Californian who still finds Palo Alto a bit chilly most of the time. We will likely never venture to our New Hampshire home after Columbus Day weekend. He does excellent layering with pastries, but not with apparel. Toasty dreams, ej

Oh pfffttt! What is everyone complaining about?! It was NEGATIVE 30 degrees with the wind chill factor during my first winter at college in Ohio. It is so bad that they still don't require students to be on campus during January and classes don't start until February. 7 degrees?! Puh-leeze! Now, back to enjoying my nice CA weather...You're welcome! :P
