    OMG, this is so funny! It’s like living on the Texas Gulf Coast. If we get icy drizzle, people can’t drive. We’re pathetic when it’s cold. Of course, I wear sandals year round and only own a sweater. I sit outside and write in June when it’s over 90 degrees! LOL! I guess we all get used to what we live with!!

    Sandals year round?

    *sigh*

    We’re having our second blizzard of the week today.

    And ten degrees is our cut-off. If it’s ten degrees or above, the school throws all the kids outside for recess. It’s considered “brisk”. ;)
