Don't Wait! Start Extra Today. 4th Month Day 3

[tripletfeb]

Not nearly as much as we can get but it is pretty

Yes, but the snow melts off within ten minutes of coming inside.
Glitter stays on for a month.
I hate glitter, my friend threw a cloud of it on me for a prank...there was a lot of cursing involved.

"Glitter is forever!" ...says a Sunday school teacher friend of mine... lol ...she says it will be around longer than eternity.

My training hoop arrived!!!! Sooooo now i have zero excuses for not completing some sort of extra each day!!!!!

 

[microchick]

*Sigh*, no. I haven't had even ten minutes to myself in weeks. As soon as I finish one thing there's a new thing that needs to be done.
I've been very active though. No sitting down for me!

Challenge accepted.

Also, this turkey froze to death under a bush in our yard in town.

I have to admit that living in the Midwest my whole life IMHO gives me a better tolerance of extreme weather. In Missouri, not unusual to have 100 degree days. We were putting wiring in our house when the temp was 108. Talk about miserable hot, that was. The air made your lungs sting if you went outside.

On the other hand, here we have more ice than snow but we can have snow also and cold, 0 or below.

You just learn when to go out and how to dress accordingly.

I have to agree though, I like temps in the upper 50s to high 60s the best. Sweatshirt, jeans. I hate putting on layers to go outside and I hate it when it is so hot you don't want to go outside. I'm a person who thinks that a bad day outside is better than a good day outside.

But getting older, taking heart and blood pressure meds makes you more susceptible to heat and having osteoporosis and arthritis makes keeping warm in the winter plus staying upright on ice more important.

Raised in SE MO and also along the KS/MO border south of KC. Now in AZ - I much prefer the AZ weather to MO - hot dry and windy cold -better than all the MO humidity and tornado warnings, floods and even small earthquakes from New Madrid fault.

I exercised my trigger finger and digging muscles.

Workout done already for Friday - Planks and stretching so far. I'm SO HAPPY I don't need to mow again today!

Okay, y'all, top this! Ground hog blizzard 2011or2012 in Illinois right before we retired.

We were snowed in for two days before a crew of snow plows, end loaders and bucket loaders came to the rescue. Snow drifts were 6+ feet tall.

I can't top that, but the snow does get very deep here. Up to my knees is pretty normal.
Here's a snowman we built last year.
