Delia!!!

Welcome back. I've missed you!!!

I need to get up to SB soon. Have you been down there lately?

LD

I adore the midwest and I love Kansas City but the high tomorrow is 12 degrees and cloudy with flurries and a 10 mph nnw wind.It normally isn't this cold at least not for several consecutive days.My weather man said it will continue to be this cold for the next 5 to 7 days.I know that you northeastern ladies (lauralaylin and aphigal) are feeling the cold too.For you Cali ladies that have never experienced winter,12 degrees with 10 mph north wind is hurts to breathe cold.

I want snow. :(

for a calif girl i have exp the weather.... i went to college in arkansas where one yr i had snow up to my hip and almost broke my leg from frozen ice outside my dorm and wheni lived in oklahoma the ex husband ( he sooooo dumb! geesh) he was from oklahoma and he and I were driving and he attempted to go onto a overpass bridge where it freezes that hi up..... i dont miss that weather AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so sick of the cold I can't stand it. And I've been inside for a week and a half sick! It was fun when I didn't have to drive 15 miles to work in the snow. After a 4 hour commute in early Dec and driving in 2 feet of snow 3 days later, I got sick of winter pretty quickly. But spring will start before we know it. February usually has one or two days that are in the high 40s, I'm praying Im not working during one of them!
