Rayzor Posted January 23, 2007 Report Posted January 23, 2007 It's gorgeous today around this part of Canada! We're at 0c!! I think that translates to 32F or something. (The freezing point)

edna Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 I live in the sunny part of the world and yet I have to wear lots of things cause it´s very very cold. If I was bigger (taller and fat) I wouldn´t be freezing. So I decided to stay home today. It´s warm here...
Blue Fish Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 Suns out. So warm i had to turn my radiator off and open my window....
Rayzor Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 It's snowing!!! Which is so nice to watch... but hell to shovel!
Blue Fish Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 There is talk of snow coming here. WHAT? The radiaters still off, the window is still open and it's slightly cooler but not enough to talk of snow....

edna Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 It´s 3º C now in Spain (at least, in Madrid), the cats are in bed with my husband. The car sleeps in the street.
MarcM Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 62F and cloudy. Was raining last night and is supposed to rain through Wed off and on.
Uncle Joe Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Spring is here. I'm barefoot. Better make that an iced-tea then, eh?
Levis Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 I don't have the patience. It's also not as much fun!
The Seeker Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 I was once asked if I'd like some ice coffee too at a friend's house, said yes and got coffee with ice cubes in it. It wasn't really my idea of ice coffee.

It wasn't really my idea of ice coffee. I make that for myself in the summertime at 7-11. It is good, so long as you drink it before too much ice melts.
