To see snow or not to see snow...


We are definitely not used to these temperatures in Florida! I think it took a good hour for me to get my legs warmed up after sitting outside with friends for a few hours last night. I'm not kidding, husband said it was like crawling into bed with a side of beef. Alas, we did not see any snow ourselves, but there were a few sightings around the area. Honestly, I don't miss the cold weather like they have up North, as much as we complain about the heat in the middle of August and how you can't leave the house without your "face" melting off and don't even get me started on my definition of a "bad hair day", our weather is considerably mild. I would much rather take a couple weeks in the mid-30's than an entire winter season with below freezing temps!

We were so unproductive today simply because we didn't want to leave the house to brave the elements, but it was also nice to have a lazy day at home with the husband. We thought about going to see Sherlock Holmes, but again that would require trekking out of the house away from our central heat! I did catch lunch and a movie on Friday with my father. We went to see Avatar, I really enjoyed it. Yes, the plot was predictable, but it was a great story and the imagination that went into the film was something beyond this world. It was aesthetically the most beautiful film I have ever seen, two and a half hours flew by! I highly recommend it.

As for tomorrow, husband leaves for his weekly male-bonding session at disc golf and I get a few hours alone (not that I have had a shortage of this lately!). On the menu tomorrow Cuban roast pork with black beans and yellow rice...ahhhh...behold the glory that is the crock pot!

I bid goodnight to you all as I can no longer concentrate because husband feels that now is the time to get our two dogs riled up into a "barking let's fight over the ball" frenzy, despite my very calm requests that they KNOCK IT OFF! Really? Really?

  1. OMG, Bobby and I wanted to go to lunch and see Avatar today, but we decided we didn't want to leave and go out in the cold either...we even ordered in dinner and had it delivered. Great minds think alike my dear!
