Freezing our Buns Off


It is 9 degrees right now.
9 degrees!
Our local news website said this is one of the coldest mornings in our area in 10 years. It's definitely the coldest day I remember in the last 10 years we've lived here. It has been freezing cold all week, but thank goodness it has been very sunny as well. These are perfect conditions for freezing rain and fog.
We had a fun time (well, Frank* did most of it) thawing out a pipe in the garage with a hairdryer. The water that melted from it immediately froze on the sidewalk.
I've been bundling up the girls every morning to go to the bus stop - gloves, hats, scarves, etc. Something we don't usually have to do. Maybe those of you who live in colder places think we are wimpy, but 9 degrees is waaay to cold for my taste. I'll take the regular overcast and rain any day over this butt cold weather!
BRRRRRR!
And speaking of weather, we got the most wonderful news this week from a good friend.
Rod Hill is back!
Yeeehaw!!
He's only doing weekends on channel 8 for now, but at least hes back. I haven't even really cared about watching all the weather news since he left. It was just too depressing . . . )o:
Welcome back Rod!!!
