Its not officially a snow day, but check out the balmy weather we’re experiencing today: 19 degrees Fahrenheit. Its making this Florida girl shiver right down to her Uggs.
Seriously, its 19 degrees out?!
My best friend sent me this cute IM photo earlier from the Tampa – St. Pete area.
48 degrees in Tampa/St. Pete – such a luxury!
Seriously, cry me a river of icicles – that’s what January weather is SUPPOSED to be. Or at least what I’ve come to expect in the 13 years I’ve lived just below the Mason-Dixon line, and can still technically call my self a southerner. (Ha!)
On a more festive note, we actually did a wee bit more than the Charlie Brown Christmas tree decor – namely Tim did, the day before we left for Florida for the holiday. The Redbud in the front yard and the front porch were festooned in lights. Pretty, right?

Now, look at the Redbud last night – with about an inch of snow on it. This is the one AND ONLY time I think snow makes stuff prettier.

I know this is nothing like the Snow-nami we had in February of 2010 – as she gets down on her knees to pray/beg for no more snow-nami’s in her lifetime – but its freakin cold outside. Just to go to work I had to shovel the front porch, the stairs, the sidewalk and then de-snowify (yes, that’s a word I just made up) my car. In other words – I . HATE . THIS . STUFF.
Sorry for my rant, but I really am a mis-located Floridian.
