Topic: Cold And Swim Suits | |
---|---|
I'm just north of st cloud minnesota now. Its a hot balmy -24 below zero here. The winds have picked up. My guess is right around a scorching sweaty -40 below wind chill. To put that in perspective on this record breaking 3 evenings? Its so cold if you grab your car door handle with bare hands (and its metal) the moisture on your hands will freeze your skin and peel a layer of skin off. Its so cold that snow squeeks when you walk on it because being this cold there is no moisture in the air. Its 10% humidity in the air outside- dryer than the sahara desert. And you know its deadly cold when it gets below -20 to -47 when you see fog hanging in the air. That's not fog. That's frost. Arctic frost. Dangerous and deadly. Stranded outside you'd be a goner in a few hours. Frostbite sets in quickly when that death frost is in the air. And yes if you take a coffee cup full of scalding hot water and throw it up in the air- it goes poof and turns to snow in these subarctic temps instantly. Its pretty cool. Now, doesn't just make you want to go and buy a swimsuit? |

So cold out, your car talks to you. When you turn the key it says...I don't....wanta....start up. My Dad just warned me that it's going to be 1 degree in the morning and to let my car warm up. |

Today it was 12 degrees in St. Louis. It's now 24 with snow showers arriving tonight. I went to Target and was wearing my winter coat and gloves. As soon as I walk into the store, I see swim suits. I'm so confused. I'm freezing and I'm supposed to be thinking about swim suits. ain't life grand I saw shorts at Christmas time go figure??? I was seeing a lot of short sleeved shirts. I saw those, too. JCPenney is having fantastic sales. I couldn't find a darn thing for me to wear, but I got some things for my youngest child and the bargains were obscene. That's where my child and I were at tonight. I can't find anything either. But..I bought some for my child. aren't growth spurts fun? between the food consumed and needing new clothes I don't know what to expect next..... Yeah, fun. Mine grew out of every single thing right before Christmas two years in a row. I can see it coming when the food disappears. |

I work at a school and second semester starts when we come back from winter break. We have P.E. classes that have three weeks of swimming for the rest of the year. These kids have to have swimsuits. I also buy mine because I go to Florida in March for Spring Break and like a new suit yearly. Also it gives me a break from all of the covered up winter clothes. I love summer and not wearing much at all.
