It's not really extra cold it's just the funky measuring system you guys use up there that makes it "seem" colder. lol

I will take any vibes you want to send my way Lisa...

More snow...hmmmm...That would be Kickaaaassss!

Hopefully we won't get any snow this year. Supposed to be an El Nino year. Not so good for the Olympics, but hey, that's not my problem.

All this talk of snow is making me colder than I already am.

The AC is set on Arctic Blast today, and I made the mistake of wearing a skirt and sandals to work today.

That is precious.

My daughter just turned 10 and says... five more years and I'll be driving, mom.
I thought... no dear, cuz I'm going to lock you in the attic until you're 20. No dating, no boys, no driving, no drugs, alcohol or drama.
SHE is the reason I carry a gun.
