I don't think we will see grass until May! And where the snow drifts are, probably July! But, keep a stiff upper lip, people, we won't have to use the air conditioner or water the lawn. I am a PollyAnna from the word "Go". I have to make something good out of everything, or else I am just not a happy camper. And, I do not like to be not happy! I am happy now. We had +28* yesterday - "We're having a heat wave -- a tropical heat wave."

Gotta get my hair cut today - short for the summer!!!!!! I also am the Eternal Optimist!!!! Edie

Me too. If this was June, I'd be upset, but this weather is SEASONAL!

Just the opposite for me. I breakout in hives when the sun comes out. Every year in a different spot on my body.

Count me in....our pipes are frozen at one end of the mobile...can't use that flush and no water coming out of the sink. Wondering about running the dishwasher because that has the hottest water and might do the job. Went to Mardens for the first time yesterday and bought a few FQ's in bright spring colors. I have never seen so much fabric under one roof before in my life. I will be back there after I see how the stuff I bought yesterday washes up. Yes they do ship. Batiks at 3.49/yd...It is a roaring 2 degrees this AM after a forecast of 30 below the past few nights. ..Welcome to New England.

We are orginally from the Bayarea in Calif. Moved to just outside of Fort Worth, Texas ten years ago. Who would think that you could freeze your booty off in Texas!!

My husband retired from our County Road Dept. and spent MANY hours clearing roads. After retiring the word 'snow' was a swear word to him. It usually made me grin. LOL I really don't mind the snow that much, even when I had to drive in it day after day.
