 January Clouds By Ethel_GG ~*~ The sun is shining bright and clear Such a pretty day is here But, ohhh this cold that's on my feet Certainly doesn't feel so sweet And my hands are kinda numb Not much feeling in my thumb But, it seems the rest of me Is staying warm how can this be So to get more socks here I go This will help I sure hope so But what about these hands of mine Typing with socks makes NOT a straight line ~*~ . . . . . wonder if I could use these great big fuzzy slippers on my hands????? Brrrrrrrrrr...(well, ya'll, it IS cold for Florida...) |

LOL Bernie. If I saw 2" of snow, I'd think I was freezing for sure. I lived next to the Tennessee line a while back for a little while years ago, and I was ready to come back to Florida when we did. It snowed a lot there. Hugs to you  Ethel |

Brrrr, Dixie, that is cold. Yep, I'm glad to be in Florida, too. Even when it's cold at night, most days the sun shines so pretty, doesn't it? I love living in Florida.  Hugs, sweet lady Ethel |

Ethel some winters here in MN it can get -70 that I remember from a horrid winter we had, a good 8 years ago but all the same.... I think actual temp was -30 and with wind chill -70 I remember trying to get my car doors open...LOL that didnt happen....they actually closed schools until the temp rose back to a "normal" number.... sweet little poem, enjoyed it much! ~*~ |

Thank you, Lauren. Now, if I was in weather as cold as that, I probably wouldn't think that I had any fingers or toes, they would be so numb. How do you keep them warm in weather so cold? Hugs, my friend Ethel |

That's lovely, dear Ethel! Can imagine you! To feel cold is really bad, but as long as the heart is warm, heated by love, well ... one can tolerate much more. Today it feels like Spring here ... Love and warm hugs. Margherita |

Margherita, thanks!! It's gettng warmer here. . . Lauren, I'd probably be wearing many layers!! LOL . . Susan, I live in NW Florida, about an hour from Pensacola. It's probably about that warm here now, because it's supposed to rain. But, it was cold to me this morning. But, I put the "again" in the title because I wrote this last year about this time and it was really cold that day. It was 20 something that day, if I recall correctly. My niece lived in Jacksonville for awhile when her husband was in the Navy. They live in Illinois now. Thanks for reading and replying. . . McLean, thank you. I hope that you stay warm, too. . . I appreciate all of you. Hugs to each one. Ethel |

Maureen, I know....on my homepage where I have the temperatures for some places, it says it's 2 degrees in Massachusets where my daughter is...and -1 last night. She hates the weather there and wants to move back to Florida. I get cold so easy I would probably stay cold all the time there. I do like those wood stoves. They are so cozy when it's cold. Thanks, sweet lady, Hugs Ethel |

Well it is snowing here and cold. I wrap up like an Eskimo and I'm still cold. Kind of hard to type with socks and slippers on your mitts. Maybe you'll have to take the keyboard to bed so you can stay warm. Oh! And don't forget the flashlight so you can see. LOL See Ya Bon-Bon  |

Bon-Bon, I sure do hope that you stay warm! Try not to catch cold. . . Meghan, I just don't know if I could do that. LOL I would have to try, though, if it got that cold here. . . Nancy Lee, you just don't know how much I would love to go to visit you and Chris. We would have a ball, laughing and cutting up. I'll bet we'd laugh so hard our tummies would hurt again like mine did the night of the Chat. LOL Which reminds me, when is the next one scheduled for? . . Noah, do you ski on the mountains in Colorado? I'll bet that's fun. All I know about is water skiing. . . I appreciate all of you. Hugs to each of you, Ethel |

lol last week I was snowed, or rather 'iced' in. Went to school monday and they cancelled it all the rest of the week, I didn't leave the house again until sunday! You could ice skate across the lawn though, 2 inches of ice over top of the snow.  Very cute write! Always, Alyssa He was a man of sorrows |
