Wimps

We may very well be wimpy Arizona dwellers who can't handle the cold, but I don't care where you live. When the little blue digital thermometer on your windshield mirror keeps toggling between this...

and this...

it's just plain cold - then add a little wind chill for good measure. Seriously, super duper dang cold outside for the past two days. We've been ultra-spoiled all January with our 70+ degree days, and now we're getting slapped back into place by Mother Nature. I'm glad today was a temple morning and not a running morning, cause I would have been freezin' my beheiny off for sure.

But really, I am not complaining. Just recording. Yesterday morning it was -23 in Park City. Yes, that's negative 23. My boss is freezing his chops off in Boston this week. People are snowed in all over the country. Flights have been cancelled left and right. And we still have totally clear, sunny skies - just a little crisper than we thin-blooded Arizonians are used to. I guess we still have it pretty good (even though I finally had to give in and turn my heater on for the first time in a month).

  1. We live in AZ for the mild winters because we have to endure the awful summers. I think we're a little justified with our complaining, but grateful all the same for a heater and temperatures that are not in the negatives.

  2. I'm weak in this weather, don't like it one bit. I was just popping by to see if you had a review of your RS class on your blog. I've heard from a few ladies how wonderful your class was! I would love to see your notes, I can use all the parenting help I can get, especially from a great mom like you.
