Sympathy like.
No more freezing temps in the mornings and highs in the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s predicted for the next 10 days...

And, I’m not sure how to classify Texas anymore...we’re, alternately, referred to as being in the South, Southwest, and West...?

I think little league classifies Texas as southwest.

And, also, no smiling because their teeth were a mess. As we know, dental hygiene just wasn’t a thing back then...they had no Whitestrips...!!!

Anyway, your post reminded me of this article...

Fun article.

Not too much? Really? 6 inches will close schools, cause a mess with roads, etc. Guess Michiganers are tougher than us.

Yup... we are made of tough stock. Don't get me wrong..... over the years they have softened and schools will probably get closed. When I was in school... that wasn't the case. My work has "delayed" once in the 17 years I've been there. So I fully expect to have to go into work tomorrow =/

My dh's work never closes but they have a generous policy for leave during bad weather unless you draw the short straw and have to stay for the duration of the storm

Snack not mine. Lettuce, burger and tomato with spicey sauce, buffalo cauliflower and aur fried fries

Southeast is usually a few degrees warmer I may hit a couple of mornings of sub zero

Approaching 4pm. Just checked the forecast.
Brick NJ for Thurs. is forecasted to have a high of 16F with an overnight low of 9F
.................I know there are others on this forum who will have it worse, but I'd trade places with any southerners if I could.
My wife dreams of the day we can possibly be "snow birds".

Hey guys! It’s Catholic Schools Week.. T’s school had their Open House today..
Look what I saw in his art classroom.

Hope your husband feels better by tomorrow. Sorry to hear about your high school classmate. You're right, he was too young to lose his life to cancer.

Thanks. It's actually my son, not my husband, but PLEASE don't let my husband catch it!! I think DD might be coming down with it....her temp was a bit high and she wasn't feeling great. Hopefully they'll both be back to normal by Tuesday or I'll have to see if I can change my morning shift to an evening shift so I can be home with them.

I think little league classifies Texas as southwest.

The country (contiguous 48-wise, anyway ) should be classified as such, starting at New Mexico and going around clockwise to Texas...
The Southwest, West, Northwest, Midwest, Northeast, East, Southeast, South, and...........Texas...!!!!!!!

Fun article.

I thought so, too!
I originally learned about the Pepsodent history from an episode of Mysteries at the Museum on the History Channel, and then followed up by googling and found that article...!!!

Don’t worry, we’re teenagers, do you expect anything different?

 

[Goofyernmost]

My girlfriend from the east messaged me all concerned about us maybe getting 6 inches of snow... and the cold temps.... I had to laugh because 6 inches is really not too much.

This is what we are expecting this week down here, but, by sunday we will be back in 50's and 60's at night.
