Well, we're into the second week of December and I had to turn on the AC again today

[Richardo]

:eyes:

Got up to at least 80 with 85% humidity. I'm so in the Holiday Spirit. :-|

[FloridaJudy]

1. I had to click on your profile

To see if you lived here in Florida.

You have my sympathies.

[Richardo]

2. I've got a brother down near Ft Myers.

For what that's worth.

You having the same weather where you are?

[FloridaJudy]

3. Yup. 80 degrees.

With the same predicted for all next week. Nice breeze now, though.

[fudge stripe cookays]

4. He he.

It's amazing how quickly my body has adjusted to the teens and buttloads of snow (long undies and a Land's End parka DO help though!).

This may be my first white Christmas! :woohoo:

Miss you guys. :hi:

[PeaceNikki]

6. Just wait. THIS is not buttloads of snow.

In December of 2000 we had a total of 33 inches. That was brutal.

We had storms that were dumping 12 inches at a time. When you have nowhere else to put the snow because the banks are 47 feet tall, then it's buttloads.

White Christmases are nice, but the snow loses its "charm" by mid-January yet sometimes keeps coming into March. Welcome to WI! :)

22. My next door neighbor...

was telling me about that Friday night. She snowblew my driveway the other day! I LOVE her!

At least, it looks like the house will close on the 20th! :woohoo: With reprehensor up here with me, I'll be able to cope better, and he will know what to do with all this stuff.

I figure by January I'll be a little tired of it, yeah. But the novelty hasn't worn off yet.

If all goes well with my account manager tomorrow, I may not be in Waukesha much longer. This neoconservative asshole I have to work for is making it REALLY hard. Republicans I can handle. Republicans who bash everything I believe in with just about everything out of their mouths in a professional workplace setting (and sit on the other side of a cube from me) are a completely different story.

[PeaceNikki]

26. Holy cow!! Congrats on the house!! That's fantastic!!

I am so happy that you and your husband will be together again soon!! :hug:

We should get together soon. It was a rough weekend for me; my transmission blew on Friday night. :( It's in the shop awaiting diagnosis. I have a rental for the time being. I am exactly 738 miles over my 100k warranty. :(

[fudge stripe cookays]

27. Oh GOD.

I am so sorry! I went through the transmission thing with my Nissan Stanza about 91, I think. $1400 big ones.

I hope your luck is a little better...but outside of warranty it's not real likely. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

[PeaceNikki]

32. Well.. I just bought a new car.

YAY! and BOO!!

It looks like this:


They were saying $2600 to fix it and it's worth about $1k if it were in perfect working order.

They refused to cover under warranty. They said they'd submit it for consideration as a "good will" reimbursement. However, that would take up to a week to determine if they'd cover all, part or none. Even if they covered half, that's a lot of bones to throw down on a car that's got 100k miles on it.

So, I get a new warranty. And a new payment. <<<sigh>>>

[fudge stripe cookays]

39. Like you said...

Yay! and Boo!

at least it's cute, and has that new car smell, right? :D

[Richardo]

30. Ask for warranty protection anyway, PeaceNikki

That close for something so major can get you some slack from the manufacturer. Worth a try for sure. Good luck, and sorry to hear about the tranny. :(

[PeaceNikki]

33. Thanks, Ricardo. I gave ot my best shot.

34. Aw,,,,and yay!

Better luck with this one, PN :pals:

[PeaceNikki]

36. Thanks.

When I was trying to get them to cover warranty, I told them that if they didn't cover it, I'd buy new and NOT from them. I ended up doing just that. Though to be honest, it was their lack of incentives/rebates that really sent me to Chevy.

I appreciate the well wishes. :hug:

[trof]

5. I wore shorts to 2 Christmas parties last night.

Several guys said they wished they had.
And I turned the a/c on last night.
Coastal Alabama.

[terrya]

7. It was 20 degrees here last night

Ah, winters in Chicago.

[Rowdyboy]

31. We had open windows at 65 degrees down here in Mississippi....

I have (weak) bell pepper plants still producing in the back yard. No freezing temps in the week to come.

Life is good.

[Wcross]

8. It hit 70 here in southern Tennessee.

It was funny because Nashville was 15 degrees cooler due to a front sitting there. No A/C needed, it was pleasent with the windows open.

[Midlodemocrat]

9. Going to be 60 here today.

AFter a week of temperatures in the 20s first thing in the morning.


But Global Climate change is a myth. :eyes:

[Sweet Freedom]

10. Yeah, but we had the heat on earlier in the week!

I have to keep checking the weather every night to see how I should dress the kid for school the next day. This is insane.

The flowers in my garden are sooo confused. :crazy:

[Madrone]

11. Hey Richardo! I've got something for ya.....

:nopity:


LOL

[GOPisEvil]

16. Hey there!

I played golf in shorts yesterday.

Ready to move yet? :7

[Madrone]

17. Eat a fat one, loser!

:D

[GOPisEvil]

18. At least it's not snowing.

Yet. :P

[Madrone]

19. Not here either....

*knocks on wood*

[GOPisEvil]

20. I checked your forecast before posting.

I wouldn't put that shovel away. ;)

[kedrys]

12. We just did that too

No global warming...nothing to see here...isn't it supposed to be about 19 degrees out this time of year??

[YellowRubberDuckie]

13. We're going to have freezing rain today...

So, basically, it sucks. We've ordered some Pizza Hut pizza, and we're waiting for it to be delivered. We're going to hunker down and eat pizza for the rest of the day. LOL

[pscot]

14. Snow is falling here

and pretty much all around Puget Sound.

[Nikia]

15. It's been cold and snowy here in Wisconsin

I don't know about the humidity, but I am slathering on the moisturizer all over every day along with the lip balm. Several of my coworkers hands are cracking.

[yellowdogintexas]

21. A/CFriday and Saturday, heat today. That's Texas for ya.

Seriously it was in the 80's and very muggy Friday evening and most of Saturday. It was 46 when I left for church this morning.

[RevolutionaryActs]

23. Well it snowed here

Wanna trade? :shrug:

[unsavedtrash]

24. supposed to be in the high 70's most of the coming week.

75 or so today. We had highs in the 40's last week. Welcome to an Alabama December.

[leftist_not_liberal]

25. We're off the cliff, IMO

but of course nothing can be done that would "hurt the economy"

and people wonder why I am anti-capitalist.

:eyes:

[rainbow4321]

28. Dallas: From 80 on Saturday to 35 Sunday

And that 35 is without our ever annoying "wind chill" factor.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

29. It's Christmas in Texas, Hark Hark the Angels Sing....

South Texas.

We all run around in shorts and hawaiian shirts, ding ding!

NOT everybody looks sharp and wears a tie!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

35. I'm sorry about the AC; but just think of

the heating oil bills you won't have this month! :thumbsup:

[Cabcere]

37. It is 80 degrees today

here in southeastern VA. x( :wtf:

[Thirtieschild]

38. Snowing in southwestern NM

Not sticking yet but warnings of up to five inches by tomorrow morning. I'm not a happy camper - Mr. D. has cataract surgery tomorrow, has to be at the hospital at 6:30 am and I have to drive him home. After 39 years of winters in Georgia, now living at the edge of the mountains on what may be the world's worst road (rutted, full of boulders, in some places you have to decide whether you're going to drive over the boulder or through the gully), I'm nervous about tomorrow. Love snow when I can stay by the fire and watch, don't like it when I have to drive in it. Wish us luck.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

40. Be glad you're not up here in

the panhandle. Thirty five and wet (no snow, yet anyway). Car was a little cranky starting up at the office. Got home and hubby wanted to run the the store, thing won't start now at all. Probably the battery, he's called someone to come take a look. Ahh, winter...:eyes:

[GOPisEvil]

41. Yeah, that lasted a long-ass time.

Yesterday's high: 81. Today's high: 45. Welcome to winter in Texas.
