When the car and truck both have doors frozen shut, you just wanna go back in the house for a little cry. Can't cry outside, cuz your face will freeze...<BR/><BR/>Bid, little mini-hibernation? That's alright. Let's hope it's warmer than minus one million on Tuesday!<BR/><BR/>D Housewife- good! That was the intention! He's the perfect distraction, eh?<BR/><BR/>Sherry if you can see your breath while indoors it counts. I can't move though; my roots are too deep and besides, I really do love Ontario. It's beautiful. Believe it or not, even the cold is beautiful to look at.<BR/><BR/>Cindy, yeah, it's fair. The cold didn't come to you from Mexico, it came from Canada! The worse part is, in the south, you are just not prepared for cold!<BR/><BR/>Marni, like I said. If winter to you means that the puddles have a thin layer of ice on them... then this winter has got you shivering. And I"m sure you guys in Hotlanta don't have a huge snowplow budget.<BR/><BR/>Heidi, you know, perspective and some Johnny always makes me feel better too!<BR/><BR/>Julie, I forgot Vermont... you guys are practically snuggling up to Quebec, not? Yeah it's Canada type cold there too. You have my sympathies!<BR/><BR/>Okay Ollie, you know what I'm talking about when I say Manitoba! <BR/><BR/>(I saw the "Jar of Dirt" video- it's awesome!!)<BR/><BR/>Dilling... you are just not built for this, you poor thing. But your comment was perfect! Clearly your brain has not frozen! <BR/><BR/>Lynn F, you are welcome!<BR/><BR/>Nicole thanks! I'll keep my ice trophy on my back porch. It'll look awesome beside my picnic table snow sculpture. <BR/><BR/>Trailboss-Where in Manitoba have you been? I've only been to Winnipeg. <BR/><BR/>And yeah, I'm biased, but I think Johnny's looking pretty warm in that last pic!Heidi the Hickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00639479864903922047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17536279.post-12061133049754139082009-01-17T21:15:00.000-08:002009-01-17T21:15:00.000-08:00Lord I can't claim anything.

I am no...That was beautiful, I feel warmer already! I am not trying to compete here, cuz there is just no way... But a couple of weeks ago the doors to my truck were frozen shut. The drivers side door is on the down sun side in the morning, and no way the lock was going to budge. I had to go in through the passenger side door, after prying it open with a crack of ice, to start my truck so it could warm up. After 10 min of warming up I still couldn't budge the drivers side door lock so I had to grovel my way across the front, over a bunch of crap, in order to get behind the wheel. That seemed pretty cold to me =)<BR/><BR/>My heater never works in the winter, works great all summer though, even when it is off. Gotta love my old diesel!Whywudyabreedithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12069453160852561143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17536279.post-91510902875931497172009-01-16T18:44:00.000-08:002009-01-16T18:44:00.000-08:00How about so cold that your pipes burst?
