-25? Seriously?


{{{{Brrrrrr}}}} Doesn't quite cover it. It's -5 degrees outside now, and dropping steadily for an expect low of -11 tonight, with a wind chill that will feel like -20 to -25 degrees. Now thats cold! We have a "severe weather warning" out until noon tomorrow, just because of the wind chill, that advises if you go outside to have all of your skin covered. Bring out the ski-masks! Geez louise...

Wednesday we had a lot of snow, we got around 14 inches in less than 4 hours...oh yes...it's the "Lake Effect" - the snow flakes were freakin huge!

So yeah, NY doesn't play around with winter! Oddly enough I still like it here, even with all the cold and snow. I might be needing to get my head checked soon! haha

My neighbors (the ones living upstairs) are the BEST though - her husband plows my driveway every morning, and the other morning he even plowed out a good size square in my back yard so the dogs could go to the bathroom without getting lost in all the snow. How nice is that? Maybe I should just marry them both? hehe

Enjoying New York? Cant say I didnt warn ya. We New Yorkers are a bit insane. Isn't the white stuff great? -25 windchill is bad when you're waiting for your bus at 6:30 in the morning and the bus is running late because of i dont know....snow!!

oh - and with this weather..I bet you are pretty thrilled that you can stay in bed longer! I know I would be!

I live in a black hoodie (around the house) ....it keeps me warm, cause no matter how high the heat, I still feel a draft coming from some where! :)
