hate winter!!!
So I'm complaining last night about how sick I am of this weather. How I want to move somewhere warmer. My wife, of 19 years who is originally from Buffalo NY says, I can't take it anywhere that is hotter than here. She says, she likes the cold.
Now she says this from the couch where she is reclining with an electric throw.
I'm standing there, my hands are numb. I'm certain I'm going to lose the tip of my right middle finger to frostbite. My pants are stiff with ice. I got wet catching up turtles and the water froze. At 22 degrees water does that. I can complain to you because you coastal towns are tropical compared to the Hill Country. Seriously at 11:00 at night I decide my 3 Alligator Snappers shouldn't overnight it. They had predicted 15 but 20 was the lowest. I drained their pool picked up those heavy wet turtles and took them to the snake building.
The bad news they are claiming tonight will be colder, maybe 8.
Tomorrow night back up to 15. My sister,Chicago, and buddies in SD and WY have no sympathy but this born and bred Texas boy is hating life. I've doubled up on all the croc heaters so they are toasty which will be reflected by my electric bill.
My wife wants me to schedule a time to come down and check out the wood burning heaters. Hope everything is okay. D.C.
