Winter in Maine sucks so bad... I don't like the cold. Boo Hoo and Woe Is Me. Okay, that's it.

1. Come to Texas.
We will have 70's on the weekend, then another cool front on Tuesday.

We don't get cold and stay cold.

I like cold weather myself.


I lived in Europe for a few years, loved the cold weather and snow.

I understand about the bathrobe thing, in summer I am the same way with the heat.

2. I've never been a fan of snow, wherever I've lived.
Leave the door unlocked; I'll be there in a few hours. :7 :hi:

5. I will be back in Houston on Monday, vacation over.
I have plenty of space, like to sleep on a air bed.

The double bed was to small.

4. Socks, yes. And slippers, and sweatpants, underwear,
a t-shirt, a sweatshirt, a sweater over that and then the robe. Also, a scarf around my neck. I'm COLD.

7. As it happens, I'm out.
All the self-pity began to disgust me so I'm bleaching my roots and getting ready to rock... in a corner, wrapped in my robe, I mean. :P

Hi, Sweetie! :hi: :loveya:

10. I say stay in the bathrobe
last night I went to bed at 8:30... because it's warmer in bed than anywhere else in the house.

16. I was playing around with it this morning, taking short videos.
It's remarkable how horrible I look; or better said, it's remarkable how I believe I don't look that horrible IRL when obviously I do. :rofl:

17. They're sitting in their boxes on my upstairs desk.
How did you know? The cards are EXACTLY what has me immobilized. I need to type up a little something and get pics going and JUST DO IT!

Hi Peg! :loveya:

18. I never did send out cards either, bought them but never send them.
Just never got around to them, to much to do for the holidays.

20. Then I'm in good company.
I got a card from an old friend yesterday and it was just as pleasing to receive it then as it would have been before Christmas. My cards are... generic so I will still send them out, maybe some time in March. :P

Mine just have a winter scene, so any time this winter will be good.

Wish I could trade you our upcoming springtime weather for some snow and freezing cold... I miss winter.

21. You miss winter?
When I went to bed last night it was -14 degrees. Surely you don't miss that! But I'll trade you fair weather for foul any time you can arrange it, okay?

25. Brisk, my ass!
I made robes for my kids when they were little, but I haven't done it for years. I hope she's making you one that is not only warm, but also the HEIGHT of fashion. :P

26. Oh man, I hear ya...
I really don't like winter, the dark and cold of it. And I'm sufficiently south of you that I probably shouldn't complain too much (CT).

Was looking at real estate in North Carolina today....

Hope you managed to stay warm! :hug:
