Winter Blast

Thursdsay was in the mid 80's. It was sooo beautiful and I couldn't even find any cloths to wear because we have donated a lot of our summer stuff to different charities that pick up stuff from time to time around here and haven't gotten a change to get out to get new summer clothes. That night and all day Friday, yesterday and now today we are getting pounded with weather in the 20's that is causing a ton of bad ice on the roads. Though, that's Texas for you. Shorts to Snow in a matter of hours. I remember one time in Lubbock about 4 or 5 years ago it was 2:00 and we were walking around in shorts and tshirts and by 8:00 there were snowflakes falling from the sky! Weather is so weird! haha.

We tried to go out twice yesterday but didn't get very far. Both time Ice started building up on our windshield and we thought it was a good sign to just go back home. Today we are gonna keep it low key too here and stay snuggly warm at home. We like to go eat breakfast on Sunday Mornings usually at Panera Bread or Einsteins Bagels and then usually go shopping so it kinda sucks that we are gonna miss our Sunday outing today because its always fun. We are suppose to reach above freezing at about 2:00 but then its only suppose to get to 34 degrees so I imagine we will just stay put.

DFW has had over 250 wrecks overnight with weather (ice) related incidents. That doesn't include minor wrecks with no damage!

While I love the cold weather (but don't like being in it) , and LOVE wearing warm winter cloths, I usually don't like it when it's just ice, give me some snow!!! I haven't seen snow this winter yet, that's kinda sad especially since the news has been saying Lubbock is the only place in Texas seeing snow right now. Lucky Lubbock.
