I'm soooo cold and I live in Ga..went to grocery store and feet were like ice when I got home......We'll all be crying when we get our power bills next month.....Nancy, hubby has been walking dog. He has the warm clothes, gloves, and shoes.:p :p However, I do stand on porch early a.m. and make him go down steps..and I say. wee-wee quick..and back in the house with him. Had a light snow on ground this morning. Even, Rufus, the cat wants to go out for a few minutes to chase the squirrels from bird-feeder and come back inside.:p Bonnie
 
Just counted TEN deer across road in neighbor's yard..They are not home..Eating all plants,..guess they are cold and hungry, too.:p :p Bonnie
 
Once upon a time........

Once upon a time........

I used to think that apart from the North Pole, Ireland was the coldest place on earth. Seemingly not....since Christmas we've had a couple of light dustings of snow and the temperature hasn't gone out of the -2 to +12 range centigrade....approx 30F-55F

There is definitely some global warming going on somewhere.....I don't remember a winter as mild as this one.......Long may it continue.

Thanks AbbaNAbba for letting us know that Corpus is not the only place with a warm climate in January........hahaha:cool: :cool: :D
 
Not too bad here now

Not too bad here now

Anna: I'll swap - 100 degrees sounds so good! We had bitter winds last week. minus 30 windchills.

Speaking of deer, I tried to drop off my daughter's snowpants at school last Friday and couldn't get in the front door because a young bull moose was shuffling along in the driveway right by the front door! Brought the snowpants for nothing because me went behind the school to the playground and hung out for too long, so no outdoor recess.

The moose are everywhere now - they come into town when the snow gets really deep. We do have our share of city moose too, that were born and raised in backyards and live on flower bed remains and tree branches. Had one young guy spend most of the winter in our yard. He'd bed down really close to the house, and usually near a window so we could get really good views. Used the house as a wind break, I think. That is one of the great things about Alaska, the wildlife, and now they are talking about aerial wolf hunts to cut down the pack - too many baby moose being taken! Leave them alone and let Mother Nature take care of things.

I live on a 1500 acre preserve with about 200 deer. born and raised here...We know most of them. Have even named some. Not much problem during summer months..but feel sorry for them in winter. I throw lots of bird feed out on ground..Hubby thinks it for birds..but hope the deer can nibble a bit. I have them to come into yard..just nibble at what's left from summer flowers.. All God's creatures should be fed. Love to watch them run with their white tails in air.:D :D I love living on top of my mountain. So peaceful and quiet..with just the wildlife.:) :) :) No traffic, ect...Bonnie
 
You poor North Easterners

You poor North Easterners

Heard you were going to get another big cold blast..middle of the week. Nancy.heat up the car early..Mamsram..Don't you live in New Hampshire?:eek: :eek: Are you frozen?:D Ev...Bring in some firewood.Gisele...Are you going skiing yet?:D :D :D Bonnie
 
Nancy - happy to report the sun came out yesterday and the temp's were in the 50's to low 60's . Still sweat clotheswear, tho. Mid-afternoon it begins to drop again. Was about 40 this morning. Now we are due for a deluge of rain this weekend and that means it probably will warm up even more. Sometimes that rain brings Canadian clippers to us, tho. I don't mind it dropping in temp, but when it stays that way for more than a few days it gets uncomfortable and depressing. Can't imagine how y'all get by up there for months at a time.:cool:
