The other night when I was lying in bed listening to my poor furnace run constantly, I wished that the buildings in Georgia had better insulation. Scratch that, I wished that the building had any insulation. I considered crawling out of bed to get another blanket from the closet but then realized that I would have to move. Moving was not in the program so I thought that maybe if I farted I would get warmer. But in reality it really was not that cold and it sure didn't stop me from falling asleep.
The next day I found out that the state of Georgia was under "Sever Weather." The "cold Attic air" was causing the temp to "fall into the teens and 20s." Who would have thought? This was going to be the "coldest night so far" for some areas this season. And the warning ended with always good advice: "residents across North and Central Georgia are encouraged to take appropriately protective actions against the extremely cold temperatures."
Just in case you don't understand the severity of my situation here is Georgia let me tell you the circumstances that I was in when I read this Sever Weather Warning. I was sitting at my desk wearing a three quarter length sleeved t-shirt and jean jacket that I had put on that morning. The temperature was 34 degrees and there very day I turned off the A/C in my car. I know, I know it is all very scary to me too. But please do not worry about me during these "extremely cold temperatures." I will survive, I hope. Please, consider the freezing people in Georgia who don't know what a coat is or insulation. But there is hope. The weekend before Christmas will be int he 60s. To bad I will be in Iowa.

remind me never to share a bed with you when you're cold.
haha, well I wasn't going to share a bed with you even if I was hot.
Just stay out of the closet. Stay far away.
NO! I'm taking the closet and farting all over it. So you can take the kitchen. Never mind that all fo Kaylie's clothes will smell and need to be washed.
Wool... need more wool blankets, sweaters, long underwear, etc.
I bet I can get that long underwear off the internet, right John?
I believe someone else is the expert at internet underwear shopping. In fact.
maybe... :)
Karin, sorry I was reading your comment as Adrienene. We were just fighting over who got to sleep in Kaylie's closet when we visit her. She has a small place but large closet. But not as large as mine.
...
Where's my entertainment?
Where's your husband?
Out playing with the Roomba I bet. :O
Man, this blog is LONELY!!! I think I hear it crying.
20s and teens? I am jealous. It was negative 8 the other day. Have fun almost being cold.
Well, last night my boss called me to tell me that I might have to say home because of all the ice we were going to get. No ice. Had to go to work. But Atlanta had 44 ice trucks ready. Also, the airport was canceling flights to deal with it. Yes, no ice.
HAHAHA...reminds me of my boyfriend, Dave, who grew up in San Andreas, CA (for those that are unaware...it's in a valley north of Sacramento)...boy is always complaining it's cold...even when it's not too bad out
