    Could get to -14 here tonight. With a wind chill, could get to -25.

    Currently it is a balmy -11.

    This is hot chocolate, puzzle and well, um, er, SNUGGLIN weather, if you ask me.

    When you sniff and your nostrils freeze together, that's too cold!

    My poor dogs go out and get their business done as fast as possible. My little one came in doing the "cold foot limp" tonight.

    I totally agree with you!

    After watching The March of the Pengins last night, with those crazy birds walking 80 miles over ice (when they're really not made for walking) and huddling together to survive temps of -80 degrees F, I'd decided I was going to start seeing the bright side of temps only slightly below 35. But, dangit! riding in this weather is really uncomfortable! The whining continues...

    If your bike needs a tuneup, this is an excellent time to leave it at the shop. Mine is there now.

    Of course, everybody else had the same idea, so they are backed up.

    I'm dreaming of spring days of warm sunshine and birds singing with a nice warm breeze, the spanish broom blooming and making the air smell like flowers, the morning doves coo-cooing in the mornings to the sunrise. I miss shorts and teeshirt weather!!

    Happy Dance!!!!

    We got a snow day today!!!! I had to get up at 4:30 to get ready for a conference I was to attend. Jumped on my trainer to log a few miles before hitting the shower. The district cancelled school mid-way through the ride and I decided I was not traveling to the conference 50 miles north of my town. As it turns out this was a good decision for the back roads I would have taken were hazardous and 71N was closed due to a major pile up. So it is a day off and I get to watch my new kitchen metamorphsize today. The cabinets and counters are being unpacked as I type and hopefully by the end of the day they will all be place.

    Good point, Southern Belle, we took DH's bike in last saturday, it needed the rear derailleur replaced as well as some realigning of parts. The bike shop said, be back in an hour! we were shocked. Saturdays are their busiest day.

    for six tanks of gas you could have bought a bike.
