Cold

It has been cold lately. And for cold by our standards in North Texas that means it actually dips into freezing over night and sits in the 40s for high a few days. But this never lasts and now we are enjoying mid 60s with full sun. That type of cold is about all I can stand and even then I wished I lived further south!

The younger LSU Daughter, who lives in Baton Rouge, thinks that she has been denied a proper upbringing by never having lived in a extreme cold environment! She scoffs at this winter here in Texas/Louisiana and declares she thinks we ought to live where there is snow on the ground for the winter. She also thinks that living in that environment would allow her to where more fashionable clothes.

Her mother and I have been there and done that. We have survived those long winters in subfreezing temps and snow. And it is no fun. Never again! Not sure how this kid who was raised to hate the cold has gotten it into her brain that cold is what she wants! The banter continues, I say I'm cold, she sighs. We just tell her once you graduate from college you can live anywhere you want... and we will visit you in the summer!
