wintermom Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'll trade places with you. It was 101 degrees here yesterday! Oh wow! It's Booya #2 for me! But who's counting! Certainly not me. ;) I'll be glad to send some to you from Texas in trade for some cold, k? I want winter!!! Oh, ladies. You know not what you wish for. "Cold" is such a relative term. What is cold in the summer is walking down the frozen food isle with shorts and a tanktop. I'd guess that you really don't want - 30 degrees. It's not that cold now, but it will be!

I'll pass on that. Especially since my oldest boy is growing like a weed. I really need to live in a climate where he can wear shorts 11 months out of the year, otherwise I'd be buying him a new pair of pants every week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I have to make a phone call this morning to someone I barely know because they have not been responding to my emails. I hate calling people. Hate. Calling. People. I did it! Call was short and pleasant. I am so proud of myself. #bonuspointsforquotingmyself 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, this is why I want to be migratory. Live up north in the summer and south in the winter. I suppose that will have to wait until we are old and retired. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buying and storing clothes is only the tip of the iceburg in - 30 (cool pun!). Walking the dog when no one wants to be outside, preventing the dog from eating frozen "poopcycles," shoveling snow, driving in snow and ice, and so on. There is so much to experience! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lots of little ducklings Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Tomorrow I'll be on set again. This time I get to dress for a cocktail party, for which I went to wardrobe today, and call time is not until 4:30. That means I'll be able to get in a nap, which I will need, because we can expect to spend 8 hours on set. o_0 I want Ellie's autograph.

Petroleum jelly helps. My daughter's recent conjunctivitis was supposedly allergic, but then the rest of us fell like dominoes, about 2 days apart each.

It was a long couple of weeks. Well, last night I was thinking I was a dork for saying that I was pain-free because I was quite achy. A big problem is not getting enough sleep. I tend to only get around 6 hours which is too little. This morning I managed to get back to sleep for another 2 hours but then a stupid telemarketer called and woke me up. I'm still really tired. I think I need a recovery day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't consider aches to be the same as pain, so you're covered. I'm always tired once the school year starts. I think I slept through some of the morning here at work. My eyes were open, but my mind was not functioning. I was working on a document, and it was 9:30. I looked at the clock again a few minutes later and it was 11:00. Nothing much had changed on the document. Hmmmmm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to get pregnant, waddle around for nine months, then hope that lots of other people send me their freezer meals after the baby's birth. I'm not sure it's an approach that really pays off in the end. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
