It's fooking cold outside!

For my lady friends in the North East - hopefully you all have a snow day today and are keeping warm inside....it's brick out there! Brrrr

Good thing my pantry is fully stocked so I wasn't freaking out like this guy yesterday ;)

Re: It's fooking cold outside!

  • It's -36C here, which the interwebs tell me is -32F.  

    We're not getting the snow though, so it's a really lovely, clear, crisp day from inside the windows.

Next week is going to be even worse...a low of -12 on Monday night/Tuesday morning and barely getting above zero on Tuesday plus wind chills. I don't know how you ladies who live farther north or in colder places do it!

  • OMG. HAHAHAHA!!! That was hilarious!!!  =))

    My weather app tells me it is 14 degrees here. I have not gone outside. I am snuggled up on the couch with one of the cats and the dog, hot tea close at hand. Looking out at the bright, sparkling snow is awesome, because I know I don't have to go anywhere. Other people on my street are clearing their cars/driveways/sidewalks. I'm not doing shit! Heck...the RE told me no exercise, right??

  • We were expecting more snow than we got.  I think we only got 6ish inches (TWSS). Not sure if that's just from last night/this morning, or if it includes Thursday morning?

    One of our cars had a scheduled maintenance date, so H and I dropped it off, then he brought me to work.  I got here by 7:30, and was the first one.  My next co-worker came around 10 of 8, and we were alone for a good couple of hours. My boss is expected any minute now, and H should be picking me up around 1/1:30 for our closing.  Sounds like a perfect day to me!

    Now the sun is shining bright!  It won't help the temps any, though.  I hear we're expected to set a record low (for us) tonight.

  • We had a snow day today, wind chills were in the negatives and while there wasn't much snow we have some areas that don't seem to know how to plow. H tried to go into work but his truck has been acting up and it got bad enough this morning that he turned around to come back home and take it to the garage. I offered him my vehicle since I had just found out I wasn't working (at work) but he wasn't fond of leaving me here with two vehicles that weren't safe to drive today. To be honest, I sort of wish he'd have gone in because I'm not as productive when he is here and he has spent a lot of time on the phone dealing with work anyhow because out of about 25 people that he manages 5 came in today.
