Winter is upon

Post by kmhowe72 »

Well aleast for me and the otheres or live in the wake of autam and winter.

anyway tonight I got out all the winter clothes, and started the dreaded task of seperating them all. Besides I have to get jacob ready fro school. And see what I need to buy. I also need to see what I give to the local church. Then on sept.22 when fall comes around, it will be time eto take those air conditioners out. I am excited. I just spent 194. in electricity just for the month of July.

I hate to see my bill if I had to pay for air condition all year around. That why I am glad I live were it snows. do you know well you wouldn't if you have hot weather all year. But sometimes heat escapes through windows. well I got this great Idea instead of shoving a towel in the cracks of the sill. I am going to make decorective stuff blockers for the window. and as far as I know thats an oringinal idea.

I cannot wait for the snow. I am a lot happier person Between Sept. -Feb. wait to hoilidays. were going to have some fun here. 10:52 pm. Good night all see you in the morrow.

You crack me up!! I am looking forward to winter too. It is so much fun really to go through all the kids clothes....I get bored easily so I look forward to getting to switch over to outfits we hadn't seen in awhile.....

Anyhow you are lucky with the electric bill........ours was almost $300 in July...now THAT sucks!!

I guess were on the same wave length. I lget board with the same things to. Sometimes I turn my pictures up side down in my living romm to stimulate my brain. Maybe it's because we both jioned in March. Anyway I do that because I read it somewhere that helps stimulate the brain. Go figure.:-6

Just curious, but is your winter monthly heating bill less than your July $194 electricty bill?

Why would rational humans live where they know it's going to snow?

Man, I wish I had Greys optimistic attitude about winter.

Though, I am excited for hockey to start!

I will miss fishing. Ice fishing just isnt the same.

I heart winter!

I heart sweaters, and sweater socks, and scarves, and my knit hat that makes my head look like a big giant strawberry, and knee high leather boots, and leather jackets, and leather...gloves...and leather...mmm...
