It's -17 Out Right Now!

I knew it was cold when I walked outside this morning and I knew it was below zero since my nose hairs froze instantly (my gauge as to whether it is below zero!), but -17 without the wind chill...you have got to be kidding me?!? How does anyone put up with these winters their whole life???

I am now at work under my cozy electric blanket! Hope everyone has a warm day!

I have been wrapped in my long underwear and huge coat walking to school and I'm still freezing! 30 mins to too long to walk outside right now!!! (ps- Jared got upset when I was 2 minutes late picking him up so he had to wait outside- I told him to hush because I had spent an hour outside!)
I love the electric blanket- you are too clever

Hi Kristen. By some fluke, I found your blog and figured I would say hi! Nick and I (well actually I) keep a blog as well because even though we only live 100 miles from home, sometimes it seems like much farther, plus, they really are quite a lot of fun to keep! It looks like things are going well for you two in MN, although cold! Anyway, just figured I would say hi! If you ever want to check out our blog, we are at www.nickandkenzie.blogspot.com. Hope you have a great day and stay warm! You should hear our newscasters here, it is 28 in Portland and they are calling it an "artic blast!"
