Only -2? Here it's been like -40 degrees. That's the same in both Farenheit and Celcius! It's been so cold that they're advising people to not go out.

I do think 25 degrees (F) is pretty cold. Thank goodness I don't live where it gets that cold. I thought it was pretty nice this afternoon outside. The air had a chill to it, but it was kind of nice. Beautiful in fact. Sunny and clear. 56 degrees, although they're saying it's going to get down to 35 degrees tonight, which is mighty cold. I only have one of those oil radiator space heaters. I called around today to see if I could get one of those space heaters with a fan, and they were sold out everywhere. I'm sure I'm going to freeze tonight. The bad thing, is that one of my living room windows is slightly cracked open at the top, and I can't close it, so the cold air will come in through that crack. I can't remember it being this cold.

OMG Hope put some tape or a piece of cardboard on iit, I think the reason it feels so cold here is that air come right off the mountians and blows right here
And we just happen to be a cornor lot, the wind is not helping I am going to eat everyting I can find the next year that makes ya gain weight at 104 lbs I don't have anything to warm up but bones
and I don't think it helps when you get cold real easy like I do, this is just the pits I am sitting here with a Hoodie on jeans tennis shoes and if I had gloves I would put them on, and I have the heat at 75 now
I hope that ground hog does something right this year when he comes out

*turns green* I'd rather be cold


74?? Wow. I usually keep it at 67 only for my wife's sake. If I had a choice it would probably be 64 during the day and 60 at night while I sleep. I do turn it down to about 65 at night to save oil.

When it gets cold here, I just remind myself that when I was still living in NY, I've walked to the bus stop in -38 weather. That helps....sorta!

At least for the cold you can put on layers of clothing but if it's too hot how much can you take off before you are breaking the law?

I do wish we could get some actual snow here in Los Angeles. I mean if we have to be cold like this, it would be cool to have some snow on the ground. I remember driving through Flaggstaff Arizona in the winter one year, and it was SO beautiful seeing all of that snow. I was thrilled.

Nah,,, you are NOT a big baby! It was in the 20's when I had to get up at 4:30am this morning to be at work by 6am for a training class... (8 hours of overtime!!
) It was actually forecasted to snow today. We only get snow once every 8-10 yrs or so. I am glad it didn't snow since I had to be there so early.

Rub it in but in about 6 months the shoe is going to be on the other foot and we will be the ones in shorts and a t-shirt and you will be the one freezing your fanny off.

Or you can drink some Hot Damn, it is a cinnamon schnapps, I drank it before a LSU game one time, and I never did get cold.
