Wintry Thoughts

1. When the weatherman says the high for today will be zero, I laugh.

2. When the slush and snow cover up the yellow parking lot lines, we become parking imbeciles.

3. You really can scrape windows with a debit card. I am sure a credit card works too but we don't have any of those.

4. It takes superwoman strength to push a shopping cart through a snow packed parking lot.

5. When your children beg you to please stop singing Walking in a Winter Wonderland, you should probably stop.

6. The van will warm up as soon as we get to where we're going.

#5, when they fuss about the song, switch to "Jingle Bells" sung at the top of your voice in the middle of Wally Mart. Our children need to have things to remember about us, right?

I like singing at a pitch only dogs can hear. Oh, and super fast!

7. When the weather man says, "Thursday will be a high of 27" You think.... "AWESOME! A heat wave!!!"

By the way... When I worked at a grocery store I had to bring several carts in at one time through snow packed parking lot. ICK!

Number 6 made me smile. I repeat that one to my kids all the time!

JANA!!! I miss you!! You shall be happy later in the week then as the mercury soars into the 20's. :)

Jeanette,
It's cold in here. Why is it so cold in here? When will it get warm? I am so cold.

Heat wave! It's 32 degrees at my house! One way to stay warmer in winter is to put on 20-30 lbs. Just an idea.

I like singing Christmas carols off-key. It drives my daughter crazy.

And pushing shopping carts in the snow... impossible!!
