1. The weatherman projects the wind will be "bone-chilling". Neat. Thanks, Fox News. [For those of you wondering why I was watching fox last night, please note that it was because they are on at 9pm, and I wanted to go to bed early. Yep, I was that tired.] (Side note #498 - it was TOTALLY bone-chilling wind, especially near the lake!)
2. Recent news stories have been about Frost Bite and Frost Nip symptoms, and how to describe said-symptoms to your children (so they know what to look for when they're outside for too long - apparently anything over 15 minutes), as well as how shoveling snow can be bad for your health, and how to combat this (drink plenty of water before your "work-out", use a snow-blower, and start shovelling as soon as the snow stops falling, because that's when it weighs less. Hilarious? Sad? I'm not sure. Perhaps both.
3. You stock-up on supplies like the aformentioned long-underwear, chapstick and hand lotion.
4. You wonder if you should google solutions to static-y hair.
5. Your car says -3*on the way to work in the morning.
6. Schools are on a 2-hour delay because it's too cold with the windchill for kids to be outside. (see #2).
Officially gross and kinda unacceptable.
But? At least I moved here from Ohio, where winter does, in fact, happen. Yesterday I met a guy at a training session, who moved here 3 weeks ago. From Florida. Sorry, dude.
if you do discover any amazing solutions for hair static, let me know - molly's hair is so out of control!
