Sending some good warm thoughts your mom's way! :) And oh yes, we're very chilly over here too! My car thermometer said 15 this morning on the way to school, that was actually higher than the last 2 days of 12. Where are we, in Kansas???? I'm going to write down that drink, I think I might have all the fixin's! I should put it in my thermos for the zoo lights tonight....yes, I'm totally crazy! My niece & her friend are going to UofP and want to go before they go home for Christmas, so I'm off to find all the snow pants I can in the closet!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend & the freezing rain, if I say it maybe I'll jinx it & it will skip right over us! :)
It's been cold her in Ohio too, but we didn't enjoy any snow. That drink sounds like da bomb. It also sounds like 500 calories so I may have to pass. I've already started packing my winter weight.

ReplyDeleteIt's been cold here... we got down to a chilly 31 degrees the other night.
ReplyDeleteI know that rock is going to fly through my window, not be nicely delivered by Larry the mailman.
Seriously though, we are all here in LA shivering our tushies off and complaining about the bitter cold. While acknowledging that we are weather wimps.
Happy VGNO!
Is it summer yet? It's times like this I think about moving to Arizona!
ReplyDeleteAnn, my positive thoughts and prayers are with your mom. I'm sure all will go well...
It finally got cold here too... it was 70 degrees last week. Not that I am complaining but whaaaaa? Now it's in the 20s and the Hudson is starting to freeze over.
ReplyDeleteSending love and good thoughts to your mom... wishing her a speedy recovery.
Happy GNO!
23 here in NH right now..and the wind has teeth :(
ReplyDeleteAnd it's not even winter yet...
