It's -5 with a real feel of -30 here. I didn't realize I moved to the Antarctic.

So, I keep thinking about this event so I feel warmer lol

Another below zero start here too. I'm sick of it. No ambition to work on anything. Good greif I was in bed passed out at 8 last night. I'll take anything over this cold. I've decided its worse to be cold than hot. When its hot at least you can still work. When its cold its like NOPE!!! lol.

It took untill this winter for me to come to that conclusion. To be honest I hate both, but if I had to choose... Its a "would you rather" type of thing.

Whether it's -10 or 110, I typically park my a$$ in the house! Lol

Last night at work was brutal. I got stuck doing a computer job (international shipments). It was the first time iv actually been extremely cold this winter. I'd stand there long enough til I couldn't feel my fingers and feet any longer then go in the office for a few minutes to get the blood pumping again. Not to mention I'm the one who has to move semi trailers around the lot. Hey Glenn, you ever have to grab that jack handle in negative degree weather? It's a blast

This cold is one reason why my emergency duffel bag behind the rear seat has boot warmers and hot hands. Came in handy a few years ago driving back to KS from CO without a very warm heater. I don't think I could have made it otherwise!

That's the way I am. I'd rather have a 0° day than a 90° day. I'm pretty comfortable in the cold, its usually the wind that drives me to the house. It was -9 this morning and so far its up 9! But the wind chill is still at -3. Tomorrow its supposed get to 30 and snow!

Its gonna be a HEAT WAVE!
