COLD!!!

Okay, I know some of you have it worse than us, however, I am not used to this cold cold weather (especially the humid feel of it) and just have to vent about how much I dislike it. I went to the gym the other morning and my car thermometer said -6. (plus with the windchill it feels a lot colder). I have never been somewhere that cold. Seriously, it is terrible. Thank goodness it isn't that cold every day, but it is still really really cold. I feel bad even taking Davis outside. On Sunday night it snowed (which is rare here) about an inch and a half. I like to make fun of how people freak out driving-wise when it snows here but on Sunday there was already a layer of ice on the roads and then it snowed and it was really treacherous getting home from our friends house. We had a near miss of a run-in with the guard rail getting off the freeway and felt really lucky since we had seen several accidents and lots and lots of people that had crashed into the guard rails or were stuck on the roads everywhere. The ice is a definite problem! So I will quit making fun of Kentuckians snow-driving! I am already dying for spring and it isn't even the end of January yet. It's going to be a long winter.

WARM!!! 79 degrees on Friday, mountain biking in a T shirt, all cold fronts last less than a week, only dropped below 30 twice, rumors of snow - yeah right. Sorry, I almost can't relate. Maybe next time you should try living in Texas. I don't know if Christie will ever leave. I'm glad you made it home safe. April is less than half a year away, I bet spring will be nice. Sorry, I couldn't help being a brat, and it's probably worse because I'm running behind on sleep. We love you, maybe you should give us a call sometime.
