I lived in Florida in 81-82 before it was overcrowded and Nov through Feb were beautiful! I did not like the heat and humidly of the other 8 months.

28º with flurries today, builds character! I'm glad I'm not in Buffalo though, 5 or 6 feet of snow is a bit much.

Looks like We will get us a little of that cold down here in Dixie . Artic cold front blowing in with an expected temp drop of about 45 degrees or so today here in Alabama . Windchills in some places in the negatives with temps not expected above freezing until after Christmas.. So much for our warm weather here down south .

My wife was sick so I had to pick up a few things & yes bread was on my list because we go thru it even with no bad weather . Got it but just barley.
Planned on filling up my propane tank for my generator because they say the 40 mph plus wind gusts might cause some power outages ,but they said at 60 percent I had too much for their 100 gallon minimum.
Me I'll be through with it in a few days but some of you guys got a long time to deal with the situtation & I wish you all the best .

Merry Christmas to everyone .

The wife isn't a huge fan of these guys, though. I don't mind. Fred, the one outside got left alone. Bob however, was in the shower and the wife I ordered me to exterminate.
Got plenty of them around my place . And in case you don't know if one stings you in the arch of your foot one dark night it feels like a red hot 16 penny nail then you will need a tetnus shot.
I allway hate to see them crawling across my popcorn ceiling .

I’ve see two guys on motorcycles this week. One at 1030pm. We have snow and ice and single digit temps.
I did that 1 time only about 50 years ago. My wife & I went to see my mom ,she drove the car & I rode the Triumph I had. About 20 miles in low 20 degree temps wearing a leather coat & Jean's. Coldest I ever been in my life .
When I got in the house it was close to 15 minutes holding my hands almost on the top of a wood burning heater before I could uncurl my fingers . If I were to ride one now it would be warm like really really warm .

I just hate the really cold weather . If you think the last minute shopping on Christmas eve is bad just imagine trying to find a well pump control box on Christmas eve. Because you have no water . Then imagine your in the 13 degree weather on a service call searching for why the unit you installed a new blower motor in a week back has quit heating now.
And nice guy you are you can't say no because they have relatives coming from Tenn for Christmas & last night the customer & his family had to stay in a hotel to escape the cold .

Then imagine your in the car headed home with the heater & seat warmer both turned on high & doing it . About the only good thing with the cold are the last 2 .
