I just realized what a Floridian I am. I'm ashamed. Haha. We are all currently wearing scarves and taking our boots out that we don't ever get to wear. I can only imagine those of you in the negatives!!!! My T&Ps are with you!
Well I'm ashamed with you. I left the house looking like I was facing a snow blizzard. I would never survive in the north.
Neither can I!! Yes I am in awe about 50 degree weather because I only see 90s all year and the humidity sucks. So it's a nice change. #nolongerashamed
mariisz, I just went from sunny beach weather in Florida this past weekend to in the 40s when I got home to Louisiana. I'm pretty sure the worst part is that my kids at school aren't allowed outside unless the wind chill is over 45...so hurray for inside recess all week!
That blows my mind. In my Ohio district it has to be below 20 to keep them in. The current temp now is -4 with a wind chill of -20. Dh wants to run a bunch of errands. I'm not going anywhere!
I'm in Ohio too and our district is also outside at recess unless it's below 20. They love it because they get to go sledding if there is enough snow! They closed today and I'm assuming tomorrow with windchills of -20 today and -30 tomorrow. I'm still at work though and I find that really unfair.
Man, I remember when 50 was chilly. Sigh. I miss CA. It was 15 when I left for work. I don't know how you guys handle single digits and below. I was in Chicago last year in Jan to visit my BFF and her new baby and I thought I would freeze.
SO has an appointment at 11, so he asked me to wake him up at 930. I did, but he fell back asleep, and now his alarm has been going off for the last ten minutes (he slept on the couch lastnight so I could have the whole bed to myself!). If I have to go out there to turn his alarm off, his iPhone may be making a trip out the window.
My random is more of an OMG moment. DH's cousin just had her baby the other night. We found out that she actually delivered the baby herself, in the truck, about a mile from her house. Ambulance met her about 5 mins down the road and took them the rest of the way. Momma and baby are doing great, daddy is still a little frazzled. DH is now freaking out about our 45 min drive to deliver

DH is working from home today and I just convinced him to take DS to school so I don't have to leave my MW appt early and drive back to our city to drop him off, only to turn around and hightail it back to that city for another appointment. Yay!
I'm so over this winter-especially after getting home from Aruba where it was 87 and gorgeous everyday......I have the heat up to 75 and I'm burning my "summer candles"-DD and I are pretending it's summer for the day

Stories like this are always so crazy to me, at least everyone is ok!
The boy i nanny is going to a "snow day" thing for kids ay the gym his parents go to. I'm beyond excited. I've been stuck in this house with him for days! I'm sad that we've had so much snow and stuff this week. It's my last full week with them and i wanted to go do fun stuff!
He was such an adorable puppy!!!! I want a dog so badly. I can't wait to move out of my apartment to be able to go to a pet friendly place. Having a Husky is my dream.
While a Husky is awesome (we have one), make sure that get an SUPER good vacuum, and want to devote your life to constantly cleaning. Our husky is also QUITE dumb compared to our German Shepherd. But we have had him for 9 years and he is an awesome dog.
Agree except huskies are super smart. They can be stubborn enough to FAKE dumb though! Funny how she suddenly remembers every command I ever taught her when I'm holding a hunk of meat.

It has to be like 0 degrees with a -20 windchill to keep kids inside in my area. And I'm not exaggerating. That's literally the policy.
It's -40 windchill in our district. Sorry for the one-upping

That is very true. Our husky is very stubborn, the breed isn't really a people pleasing type (or at least our's isn't). Our german shepherd would do anything on command just to make us happy! The husky is like "eh.... where's my treat?"

A college friend of mine delivered her third in their truck...at least she was a nurse

My DS is annoyed with me now because he has no school and I want him to watch DD so I can get some stuff done without her help. I want to tell him the more he complains about it, the longer I'm going to take. He's normally awesome about helping out. I think everybody here is getting a little bored of the indoors.

Wow that's crazy! Was it her first?
Third. But the first was induced d/t Pre-e and the 2nd was 2 weeks late. They had fun with this one
I woke up to a text that my grandma in Ohio passed away. I knew it was happening but I am sad. I can't afford to fly to Ohio for the funeral and it breaks my heart.
Sorry for your loss! I know someone going through this now too, coincidentally also in Ohio. I know its not easy.
I made the mistake of watching "Outrageous Birth Stories" on TLC last night. I'm scared now. I mean some of them I was like "you're dumb" like the lady who was binge-watching a show and didn't want to stop to go to the hospital even though her contractions were 1 minute apart, but then she got stuck in an elevator at the hospital with a nurse who panicked, so that was pretty crazy. But the others I saw were a prolapsed cord where her husband had to hold the baby in, and another with a baby born in a diner with the cord wrapped so they had to push the baby back in (WHAT!?!) and unwrap it then redeliver it.
I think around 36 weeks I'm just going to go hang out at the hospital so that I'm with trained medical professionals if anything happens. Also, no more TLC for me.

I'm sorry for your loss @deziniki
My random for today is that I officially can't see to shave anymore. Going at it blind is a little scary, though I can do it mostly by feel. I'm just hoping nobody looks to closely, lol! Of course, I only shave when I have my OB appointments...
