    Last night while I was at work, my mom came to get the kids to spend the weekend with her. Then Chris calls me at work and asks if I will come see him after work. I go to his house, end up spending the night. He has to work today so I left and came home.(Dummy) The darn kids had turned the heat off(Manuel is always doing that. I keep telling him he can just turn it down).

    So, I left a nice warm bed to come to a freezing cold house. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. I have got to teach him how to just turn the darn thing down. Poor dog was shaking when I came home.

    It could be worse, nothing like walking into a house that somebody turned off the air conditioner to during the hottest day of the year. I had candle wax melting. There is no way to get cool until the house cools off. At least you can cover up with a blanket.

    Is this a light saber in my pocket or am I just happy to see you?

    Jay, I can take the heat much better than the cold. That's why I don't want to move back to MInnesota. I can't handle the cold.

    Lilacs,

    I can't handle the cold
    Don't feel bad, we all have things in life we find difficult to handle...for me, it's reality!

    Btw...which part of the country do you live in? I often fantasize about moving somewhere that actually has seasons, but it seems the older I get, the less able I am to handle even the little bit of cold weather we get here in Florida. I froze my rear off in Toronto in November!!

    here in the US Pacific North West (Tacoma WA) it is about 33 outside right now,,, and all most 80 in the boat. (Ilive aboard a boat here) and I am very greatful for the warmth. Cold and I do not get along,,, lol. As the boat sits in the water which is about 50F all year round, I use the cooler air from the bottom rooms to cool the upper rooms. And when i use the heat, I use the same blower system to send the warmer air down to the lower rooms. Works very well. *S* I use wood heat sometimes, and mostly the diesel furnace. For the cooking and dryer and hot water I use propane.

    Yes it is romantic living on a boat,,, till it is stormy and yah need to take the little shore boat in to get groceries of other needs,,, then it is a real adventure at times. LOL The boat is too big to tie to the regular marina docks, so I have it out on what is called the breakwater. Minimal power and I have to run my own phone line underwater for the computer link, but it is VERY private out here.

    Hope every one can stay warm in the winters and cool in the summers,, "Warmest hugs",, grins

    BBRRRRRRR....It's a tad bit cold here in Ogden, Utah. How's about 12 degrees and it feels like 2. The games have begun. I'm staying inside where it's nice, warm & cozy. I'm about 1/4 to 1/2 a mile away from the Olympic Ice Sheet (ice skating event), but I'll watch it on TV.

    WE've got huge helicopters flying over and sounds like they're gonna land on the roof. Security is tight.

    Keep warm my friends,
