the term "when Hades freezes over" comes to mind....

yep that is why I have been away!!

We spent 5 days submerged in -50 temps here in Cowtown. NOT FUN AT ALL!!! I kid you not it was that darn cold... the actual temps sat at -30 and then we have a wind chill factored in and it drops the temp another 20 degrees. Cars were frozen, people were frozen, our internet at work literally moved at a pace of a fat man running through jello because our server room is kept in the coldest place possible. We were running our cars for 20-30 minutes morning noon and nite just so they would actually function for us. Crazy and wow just imagine this... I have at least 3.5 more months of winter left... yipee:mad:

Minks, here's a cup of hot chocolate for you. Careful.........it's hot. Now come sit by the fire. Glad your back.

oh bless you A.F.T.R. I could have dipped my fingers and toes into that earlier this week hehehe thanks it's good to be back and blessedly today the sun is shining and we are only at -17C

Oh, it is still so chilly, minks!

Missed you Minks ya lil ice cube:-6

Welcome back babe :-6

The coldest day that I can remember for me was in Chicago...walking to school around 2 miles away in 14-below temperature. I think I was 13. We girls had to wear slacks under our dresses to keep our legs warm. I was so glad to get to that warm school that morning.:wah:

oh you all make me chuckle, -17C to us today seems like a day for a picnic ahahahaha

Fortunately for us these cold snaps are short

Thanks Chezzie for the welcome back I think I should change my name to ice cube, ... naw to rapper ish.

Wrap up and stay warm Minks. :-6

Yes minksy it was cold here too. That kind of cold hurts and the wind cuts right through you. The good news is I went to a motorcycle show today and expect to be running again in hopefully 6-7 weeks.

Oh wait...thats good news for me not for you.

Sorry.

Good lord women pack up and come to San Diego:-6:-6 sunshines every day. I couldn't survive 1 day in that kind of cold.

A sure, but look at the bright side........

OK, there is no bright side that is cold!!!

I noticed that overnight -50 on Google Weather as it was happening. Wow, I thought. I'm sure you know how to stay safe but keeping comfortable can't be easy.

I said to my daughter, ‘guess how cold it is in Alberta?’

She says: ‘-50’

I say: ‘yes’

She says ‘no way, I was only trying to be funny..’

Hahahahaha too funny...well good news today is better so far about -14.

Oh Carla I would love to come live your way I have visited it enough to know there is places better than this ... pit to live in.

Spot you better believe I know how to keep warm, run like hades between car and home, and car and office. and no going out after dark.

that's why I moved to the south 13 years ago and never looked back!

It's an odd week all round. There's just been an earthquake in Nevada at Tonopah Junction. Do we know anyone in Nevada?

Brrrrrrrrr - may I suggest moving to Italy ?
