Sia | Saturday, November 16, 2002 - 08:00 pm     No, Butter, those aren't my children, but they're beautiful babies!!! Are those your kids? They're gorgeous! Many people have asked if my boy and girl are twins, but they're exactly two years apart. They do look similar to one another, but I don't think my kids look like twins. Here's a pic of me with my kids:

Monkeyboy | Saturday, November 16, 2002 - 10:40 pm     BRRRRR! Its a coooolllddd 75 degrees here in Phoenix ;) |
Jo_5329 | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 04:37 am     The funniest thing for me having grown up in MN and moving down south is when it does snow in the south. Hubby and I laugh at everyone cleaning out the grocery stores and trying to drive in it. Acutally, I choose not to drive in it when it snows down south, because most people don't know who to drive in it. Heck, half the idiots in this area can't drive in the rain, more less in snow! But I hate it ... hate the cold hate the snow. We built a fire last night and I'm going to make a double batch of chili today. The wind chill is dropping the temp here in my part of AL to 38. Too dang cold. The dogs will only stay outside long enough to do their business and get their tails inside. Hate the cold --- JUST HATE IT! Twinkie, dump the hubby and move back to FL ! Jo |
Car54 | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 04:52 am     We have snow here this morning...I could hear it coming down and see it, and it did stick overnight! It is supposed to pour rain and wash it all away here. We are moving a store this afternoon...7000 sq feet of stuff moving in and out in the driving rain. Yuck! |
Fruitbat | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 05:11 am     I have ice on my satellite connection and am using the modem..........grumble............. After I finnish drinking coffee and motivate to get out of my robe I will go out there with my hair dryer and a ladder. |
Curiouscat | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 05:17 am     Little snowflakes are flying around this morning and it's supposed to keep snowing for this afternoon too here in Southwestern Ontario. It's the first snowfall that's staying on the ground instead of melting for this season. It's a reminder to start Christmas shopping Boy, do I miss our weather forecasts being in Farenheit. Since we converted to metric in Canada, Celsius makes brrrrr-ish weather sound even colder. Right now it's -2 C and will get up to 1 C today (that's 28 F now, 34 F later.) Average temperature is supposed to be around 46 F, so it's definitely chillier than normal. I don't mind though because it's a good excuse to go shopping in a warm mall. |
Webkitty | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 05:54 am     Its been raining here since yesterday. Grey, overcast skys, something not common for Florida. Its STILL humid, but a cold front is due to sweep thru this afternoon, bringing in dry cool air, ahhh. When I moved to Florida from Massachucetts 12 years ago I thought I had gone to heaven. I can't stand the long dark winters up north. We lived right on the beach with palm trees and got to see dolphins every day. I felt like I was inside a dream. I was ok for the first two years, but then the constant humidity really started to get to me. Its not too bad for about 3 months in the winter, but by March I start to get desperate, feeling it creep back in, knowing it will be at least November again before any relief is in sight. My husband has lung problems and it bothers him too. We are eyeing a drier climate, and hope we have seen our last long sweltering summer here. Even with AC everywhere it seems to seep in. I don't mind the heat, its the humidity that makes it so uncomfortable. We were in Palm Springs a few years ago at the end of June and it was 104. As long as we were in the shade we felt comfortable because of the dry air. (only Floridians would think this way) I love the Gulf of Mexico, it is truly beautiful, and I know I will miss it, and the lush vegetation. But with the greenery comes the humidity. Grooch, I know what you mean about the jeans! And Car, and everyone else I know what you mean about the ice and snow. I would like to hear some more from Monkeyboy about Arizona.......... Bat, be careful up on that ladder! |
Car54 | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 06:04 am     ew...I just went out front...I thought it was just wet, but the driveway is solid ICE! Ick! I think the rain will clear it off. I don't have to go to work til late afternoon...guess I get to try out my 4 wheel drive on the new car! |
Aussiedeb | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 06:33 am     Yes Bat you be careful with a hairdryer and ladder and ice. Car.. Hope it eases for you later, I dont envy you moving a store this afternoon though. I think I will be inside most of the day here. Its -2C here now but the weather channel says it feels like -7C (29F and 20F respectively).. still way too cold for me. Now why couldnt Dave have lived in Florida or something..lol I still have to get ready to go to church today, but decided the noon mass would be fine and hopefully it warms a little by then, although the radar map shows snow coming our way yet today. All those up in New England area take care, and the ones in the south, I will try to send some cold air to you there. |
Fruitbat | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 06:50 am     It is raining now, that is why I am not out there. I will just wait. |
Car54 | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 07:02 am     It is raining here too Bat! I am snuggled on the couch watching it out the window. I don't need to go out til about 3...so I am stayin inside! Get a good book or a movie and settle in! |
Webkitty | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 07:11 am     ~I feel like its raining all over the world~ Snuggle in everyone up north! (and be careful driving) The wind is starting to pick up here now. (the cold front blowing through) The wind is freaking the cats out. They are scampering around with ears back, eyes wide and tails bushy.  |
Crossfire | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 07:49 am     Looks like its Toronto's turn today. Time to scoop the mothballs out of the snowblower. (I love playing with big toys Heheh.) |
Halfunit | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 08:01 am     Webkitty, LOL, my cats have been going nuts watching the last remaining leaves fall from the neighbors trees (that I will have to rake). The kids want to get out so bad and chase them. It's 28 degrees here right now with a 60% chance of snow, and I can't wait! I spent 27 years growing up in the snow belt east of Cleveland. I have since moved 100 miles south of that area, and while we get some snow, it's not like getting 2-3 feet overnight! I miss it! |
Lumbele | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 10:11 am     When I was growing up in Southern Germany, we basically had to scrape the snow together to go tobogganing, if we got snow, that is. 26 years in Canada and I still love it. Every year I anxiously await the first snowstorm and a white Christmas. Just *love* the stuff. Crossfire, we brought one of those "big toys" to Manitoba from down east but the snow is so light around here it is embarrassing to parade it in the neighbourhood, except after a big storm. Then they all love to see DH unleash it in the cul de sac. We may have had as little as -21C (-6F) this week, but it was *dry* and *sunny*. Against cold I can do something, but in the swealtering and humid south one can only strip so far without getting arrested. It's bad enough we have that in summer here. Funny, how we all love different climates. Sorry for those who have to live in the ones they don't like. |
Squaredsc | Friday, December 13, 2002 - 12:23 pm     bumpity bump for marysafan. |
Crossfire | Friday, December 13, 2002 - 12:32 pm     Aww heck, a message with my name in it that I missed last month. thanks for bump Square. Lumbele: I am dying to get some snowblower time in this winter, but it seems that Toronto has a dome built over it or sometihng, snow seems to be falling everywhere I look except in my driveway. Quite annoying. |
Lumbele | Friday, December 13, 2002 - 12:52 pm     Crossfire, at least you are prepared and won't be in need of the Army. A green Christmas is not on my wishlist either, but just a little Prairie breeze and the tiny bit of white out there will disappear. Off to the mall for me to have a heart-to-heart with that fella in the red suit! |
Crossfire | Friday, December 13, 2002 - 01:00 pm     Hehehe. How embarrassing. I remember that week, driving to work passing army vehicles and whatnot. Sure, we had some snow, but it was nothing like needing emergency assistance if I was getting around in a pontiac econobox doing a 30km daily commute to work. Mayor Mel can be a frootloop at times try not to hold it against us all. |
Whowhere | Friday, December 13, 2002 - 01:02 pm     Here's what my house looked like last week. Last Thursday I got a paid snow day and all the schools were closed....I was born and raised in FL - hated it. I've been here for over six years and LOVE THE SNOW!! Of course, the locals think I'm nuts. Gotta have the change of seasons, gotta have snow!! |

Squaredsc | Friday, December 13, 2002 - 01:45 pm     nice house who. i love the snow myself. we had about 6 inches last thursday, schools were closed but i still had to go to work. |
Admin | Friday, December 13, 2002 - 02:26 pm     It's snowed here a few times now...

Twiggyish | Friday, December 13, 2002 - 02:38 pm     It's rainy here all day, but tomorrow is promising to be in the 60's. Usually our weather this time of year is in the 50's to 60's (or warmer) with a lovely balmy breeze off of the ocean. WE LIVE for winter here, because we swelter the rest of the year! |
