Well the Big Day has dawned boringly 3 degrees C here, neither really cold nor warm. Father Christmas did his stuff and now my bed is strewn in newspaper and the odd chocolate coin.

Merry Christmas to you all.

It's about 15 degrees here. It's chilly and we have some snow cover, but nothing like last year!! I wouldn't trade a Christmas snow for warm weather right now! :) Maybe after New Years. :)

The weather around the country is bizarre. And it has skipped most of the midwest. It's like it's swirling in a donut shaped circle on the country. We are cold here, but it's December, so we are used to that!

It's cold here...6 degrees when I left to take Syd to gymnastics. And the ground is covered in snow. Oh well...not treacherous at this point (unlike last year) so I'm good.

Congrats Ona on that baby boy!!!

It's cold here in Germany, we have about -4 Celsius (24 F).
And we have so much snow this year, this isn't normal!

I was only able to get half of the driveway shoveled yesterday. Gary used the snow blower for part of it, but the drifts and snowplow piles from the road were close to 4 feet! Today I have to see if I can do the other half.

My driveway slopes down, so on the other side of that cliff, I mean drift- is about a 4 foot drop to the road.

Maybe the country is going to take turns on it. Last year, it was us in the Midwest with the 4 foot drifts. This year it's the East coast. Next year, we can send it to Sally!!

Still cold and clear here. Right now it's 17F and sunny. Looks like it's going to be that way all week with just a slight chance of some showers. We are lucking out in the winter department. (Sorry Chris...don't throw things. We went through it last year!)

Ok. It was cloudy and rainy when I woke up. Then it got up to 70 this afternoon. Sun was shining and I put on flip-flops to go to my pedicure. It has now dropped to 28 and is supposed to be crazy icy tonight and tomorrow morning with a high of 25. Nebraska weather - Grin and bear it!!

(Nana - Love the snowball. So much better than mine...where did you find it??)

Oh Sara...we only made it to 61. But I'm not complaining. I took a break this afternoon and went for a walk...simply beautiful! And if we weren't accustomed to bad weather, would we really appreciate the good?

Very true Linda...very true. I might be upping it a tad..It might have only been 67...but my indoor thermometer said 70!! :) Either way...it's a lot colder now that it was at 1 p.m.!

I don't think you really want to know about the weather here in Hawaii. Right now my dashboard is showing 80 degrees. This should be the high for the day. It will drop to about 69 degrees overnight. The past two weeks have been completely rainy and we've stayed home most of the time. I hope all of you are finding warmer weather soon.

OH were you calling me girls? I was at ..... *drum roll* ..... the beach!

Man! What a HOT NYE it is ... driving home the car outside temperature told us it was 48C/118F!

That is so hot, let me tell you, that when I promised Katie an icecream on the way home and we saw the Mr Whippy ice cream van, this is what we found!

So Happy New Years Eve girls ... and YES! I would love some ice with my drink so keep those snowballs coming ... goes well with those cute little umbrella's they served with my Pina Colada!

:bolt: *before the next snowball comes ... I am off to get another drink*
