We're looking at a snow storm on Wednesday. I start a pet sitting job complete with hot tub, big screen tv (the size of my living room!!) and a Tempur Pedic bed to sleep on with the 5 dogs I'll be caring for!!! Let it snow baby!! Bring it on!!!
Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever.

Luv my kitties!
It was a darn cold walk this morning to the train. TV news said it was -26oC. With the bit of wind I kicked up while walking it was much colder than that. Glad to be inside and warm now. Checked the temp at Sundre where my parents are and it is now -36oC.

It snowed here in California, and not just in the mountains. My niece called me on my way to work and said it was snowing. I was driving to work and all the hills were white. It is amazing!! I've lived here all my 36 years and the closest I've seen to snow was a lot of hail that we made a teeny snowman out of.
Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

Winter is in Florida too. . .it was 52 degrees and raining when I left for work this morning.
I was cold and had to put the heater on.
I don't think I could survive in minus degreeage. I would have to hibernate or sit and cry all day long.
Stay warm guys!!
Winter ((hugs))

I don't know how you guys do it either. It's about 40 degrees F or a little above that and I'm freezing. When I used to live on the east coast this probably wouldn't have bothered me as much but I was also much younger then too. I'm so glad that I don't have to worry about driving in the snow although sometimes we will get some ice patches.

How do we do it?
Bundle up and look like the Michelin Man for about 1/2 the year.
Plug in our cars when it gets nasty like this. For people in warmer climes who think I am pulling their leg, there is an item called a block heater. It attaches to the outside of the engine (the block) and has an AC plug that sits outside the car. Plug it in to an outlet (in most if not all residential and public parking spots), and a low current warms the heater, and keeps the engine and oil from, basically, freezing. Makes it easier on the battery and the engine!
"Block heater cords" are outdoor electrical cords - THICK.

This one looks like mine - the parking rail with a power outlet and the car "plugged in".
A running joke is referring to winter hats as 'block heaters'.

Oh... my.... God..............
We're getting some snow tomorrow night, but nothing like that, hardly ever if at all!
I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
