    I wish mother nature would make up her mind.

    Was barbecuing yesterday with a t-shirt on. Son out playing in the grass. Wake up this morning to this.

    Doesn't look like it is ending soon either.

    It should get up into the upper 60's today with some rain here today. Up into the 70's and 80's the rest of the week.

    After today, it's all historical.

    Uh...you live in Canada, right?

    Weather's been all over the place here this Spring. Temps in the upper 70's then it drops below freezing and "warms" back up into the 40's, then back to the upper 60's, then freezes with some snow storms, then back into the 60's and 70's. One day it's motorcycle weather and the next it's snowmobile weather.

    Like Helen Keller, my sinuses and nose are driving me crazy.

    Got snow a couple nights ago. Sun was out enough yesterday to melt it off but still cold
    My furnace went out a few days ago before it dipped, perfect
    Parts are getting hard to find but the repair guy found one. Still waiting looks like it's time for a new one
    Was hoping to get through this season without the space heaters but I guess not

    We have an old furnace as well but i was waiting for it to crap out so i could have an excuse to upgrade to a wood stove and heat pump.

    Looks like the Sun is out full and the road is now dry. So back to T-shirt later this afternoon hopefully.

    But you have to remember that "It is so Pretty!!!"

    I seriously dislike cold. Period.
    While no one ever listens to me,
    I am constantly being told to be quiet.

    In a world of snowflakes,
    be the heat..

    The wild onions were 8-10" tall. Dandelions are popping up like zits on a teenager's face. Since mid-January, we have had highs that got up into the mid-70s, including a new record set last month beating the old one set just 4 years ago. Yet it was so cold Saturday that I had to wear a light jacket and gloves to MOW for the first time this year.

    I HATE mowing!!

    For myself, I have always found it much easier to put on enough to stay warm but in the summers around here, I can NEVER take off enough to get cool. If I want to stay "decent & legal"!!

    i love the heat.


    after years of cold temps I'll take as much heat as I can get. I prefer all day long to be out in the sun sweating and working on stupid yard shit like a slave.

    68 degrees right now with a steady wind. Some severe storms up north. Clear skies here. I HATE snow. I HATE cold. I wish global warming was real.

    I like seasonal changes, but when one season tries to stick around longer, I'm ready for it to leave. I love snow, but now, it's time for Spring and I'm ready for it. Problem is, Winter doesn't want to let go.
