You Capture – Cold

January 19, 2012

in You Capture

West Virginia is known for its very COLD winters and very HOT summers. I guess you could say our motto around here is “Go big or go home!” I’m not a huge fan of either extreme if I’m being honest. My ideal temperature is 80 degrees in the heat of the day with little or no humidity, which happens about three days out of the year.

I sweat like a pig in the summer, and I get cold sores in the winter.

But I’m not complaining.

Let’s just kick this thing off, shall we?

Cold is not my favorite weather, but then again neither is summer.

When the temps reach high nineties plus humidity, it can be a real bummer.

Up for our morning commute last week, the temperature was just sixteen

I don’t so much mind the cold temperatures, but of snow I’m not real keen.

I hate the cold sores and dry skin, not to mention the wet snowy boots.

And when the kids get all dressed to sled, it takes them forever to put on snowsuits.

My least favorite is when McDaddy’s gone and we wake up to a few feet of snow,

Though I couldn’t care less about the white stuff IF we have no place to go.

As you might imagine, it’s not my favorite, to get out and clear this mess,

Though, if McDaddy is home he always takes care of it, I must confess.

I realize we’re talking about cold this week, but you know I can’t let a week slip by,

Or miss out on another chance to show you a hot little Saturn Sky. 

Ahhh. One of these days, folks. One of these days.

 Stay warm y’all!

You can send some snow our way – we have only had about 3 flakes this winter so far!

Looks like you have had more snow than us ! We have had only 2 dustings of snow this year (I know its Buffalo) but when you had a morning temp of 16 we had a temp of 4 burrrrrrrrrrrrr. I guess you have my luck, the big packages always come when the hubbies aren’t home.Take care and stay warm!

80′s — that’s why we’re here. I’m miserable when I am cold.

I would be so happy with 16 above. That would be a nice break. I think today we are supposed to be at -36. Yes, that is what I said. Negative 36.

I am so glad it hasn’t snowed here, other than the freak snowstorm the day before Halloween! And BRRRRRR!

That bush looks like a puff ball with all that snow on it. Kinda cute even.
I’m so glad we haven’t had much snow. I’ll take summer over winter any day!
