Blog. http://www.misszoot.com/2007/11/07/so-cold-cant-blog/ misszoot.com - the mundane life of a horribly geeky mother of 3 Sun, 12 Feb 2012 06:19:39 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: nadine http://www.misszoot.com/2007/11/07/so-cold-cant-blog/#comment-270317 nadine Wed, 14 Nov 2007 17:13:43 +0000 http://www.misszoot.com/2007/11/07/so-cold-cant-blog/#comment-270317 I am the exact opposite of you - I HATE the hot weather - fortunately, here in Saskatchewan, the hot usually only lasts for a few months and then we are back to winter (OK, that is a bit of an exagerration - we do not have winter for 10 months a year - maybe only for five or six). Other people I know look forward to their trips south in the winter to get away from the cold - I look forward to visiting otherwise hot places during the winter so that I can enjoy their coolest possible temperatures. My theory on heat is that I can always get warmer - another sweater, a hat, a warm blanket as I curl up on the couch, but when you are hot - there is nothing that can be done - you can only get so naked.

Moved "up north" to North Carolina. I so love the seasons, but most of all, I love the cold. I love never running the AC on Christmas day. I love that there are periods of time that there is no boob sweat. I love that people think it is humid here, and they have NO idea what humid really is. Bring on the cold. I can always put on more clothes. You can only get so nekkid. Grew up in Mississippi. Moved “up north” to North Carolina. I so love the seasons, but most of all, I love the cold.

Why I live in PA, I'm not sure. I just had the bad luck to be born here and feel rooted by now. It truly sucks. This would be why I like to plan my trips to Disney in the winter. It's a beautiful thing to leave weather in the teens and peel off the layers the further south I drive and to arrive in Orlando in 80 degree weather. Beautiful thing. I despise the cold.

It was 42 degrees F when I left for work this morning. It was in the low 30's last night. It did get up to 64 during the day. Like you, we have the periodic warm days which makes things alot easier to take. I wouldn't be able to live in a place that got really cold either. I'm too much of a wimp.

And they are predicting snow flurries on Friday. Ugh! P.S. I was sick yesterday, so please don't grow concerned as I read through all the posts I missed.

I live about 50 miles south of Chicago and it's pretty frosty here nowadays in the morning hours, lol. No ice yet... but it's getting close, lol. And you are not alone I have not really turned on my heat yet either. Only twice so far for 45 minutes each time. But I won't turn it on and leave it on yet... soon I'll have to... but not yet, lol.

The worst are the days when the high is, like, 8. Those days suck donkey butt. However, we do get a smattering of sunny (if not warm) days throughout the winter that makes it almost bearable. If it weren't for the desire to live close to lots of family, we would be moving to a warmer state in a heartbeat. I really hate the cold too. The worst are the days when the high is, like, 8.

I love how quiet the streets get when it's gusting and no one wants to be outside. I love how funny it is when I accidentally lose the dog in a snowdrift. I love scarves, and mittens, and hot chocolate, and hats with pom pons on top of them. Last year, it got so cold my iPod actually stopped working on my way to the office. I would give ANYTHING to get rid of our awful, humid summers and have a year full of autumn and winter! The colder, the better. That being said, we've been having a warm spell this year- it just hit the forties this week, and I finally switched my winter clothing into my closet. Woohoo! Sweater time!
