Do not remember seeing what part of the country you live in. Florida as compared to Michigan, I think makes some difference.

Putting cold weather to good use.
This morning I made home-made chicken stock in my pressure cooker. It's now been strained and is sitting on the back steps in a metal pot. It's only 18 degrees outside, so it shouldn't take long for the fat to come to the top and solidify, which is something I usually have to do overnight in the fridge. I should be having some nice soup for dinner or late afternoon snack today!
I tell you what they do in this part of the country
I never liked stuffing - but here they make stuffing and make it like little balls (like a good handful) and bake it on a cookie sheet.
Ya know, just by being in certain part of country means
your name is that common. My mother, grandparents living in south- named Paradiso. I don’t consider that very southern but here is where we live. You generalize when you say certain names for certain parts of the country. My last name is now French- but hubby and I both southern.....
Girl what part of the country are you from?...sm
You can bet you a** I would call you on it. I am a southern girl and I don't hold back. You aren't talking to Ms. Prim and Proper here. I don't care where I am or who is listening. ;)
All depends on what part of the country

Sorry, different part of the country - would have been funny if it was though
It's almost like when you watch the news and they are talking about a person or country and then the news caster suddenly develops an accent just for that one word.
Free country. That was part of a person's

me too i will be 30 tomorrow and still have mild acne
I've been on Depo for over 4 years, thought that would eventually help but oh no...
Do you stretch and/or do some mild exercise to start
s
2 kids, 2 shots, 2 cases of mild chickenpox
It certainly didn't prevent it for my kids, but they both had very mild cases. My poor daughter had it on Christmas and had to spend the entire with her mom because she was contagious.
Any suggestions on a MILD toothpaste for sensitive teeth?
Seems like every toothpaste on the shelf any more has MAXIMUM strength this, that, and the other thing. Well, some of that stuff irritates the heck out of my mouth and gums.
I'm currently using Sensodyne but it a) tastes nasty and b) irritates my mouth.
Any suggestions? TIA.
You can buy mild shock pads to place on furniture.

Anyone with a printer deskjet know why it prints a page with part of it dark and part of it light.
It is not printing uniformly.
It's not the dancing part, it's the people part that I don't like. K? We clear now?

Weather
It's 27 degrees here in Upstate NY with a lot of snow. It's a heat wave for us today. LOL.
Weather in NY
This coming week in Upstate NY it's going to be 95 and possibly above. It should get a little warmer in Lake George, I would think...possibly? It's always a lot of fun in Lake George. When I was young, we went there very year on vacation for many years.
Squiters ain't as bad as the below 0 weather..sm
guess I just can't take the humidity and the heat though. I had been to VA beach and it seemed fine to me..not dirty or ugly..I liked it. The women there will steal your husbands if you ain't lookin' though...lost my husband, my home, and had to go through Isabel all alone. Came runnin' back home to WI as soon as divorce courts would allow. bad memories, I guess. some people like it...some people don't. I am one that don't. sorry. but I did love Shenandoah Valley...gorgeous area! Love the mountains!
Could it be cooler weather? - nm

Hello, how are you, nice weather - that's it.

how's the weather? 20 below with windchill here.

bad weather in Atlanta
My sister lives there but they just got a lot of thunder and some rain, northeast of Atlanta. I hate to even hear the word. I hope it quietens there soon for you.
Are you WA state? I am and you just described our weather!
My kids keep asking me to put on the heater but I don't want to because this is when I'm supposed to be SAVING money on electricity. I wonder if the mountain snow is a record of latest lower-land snow? This year has been CRAZY weather!
It's been in the low 70's. Beautiful weather. Come on down!

You can get your local weather

Weather was just too gorgeous today.
I went outside in a sleeveless shirt to decide how to dress to walk the dogs, and ended up tidying up the yard instead! Won't my neighbors be relieved, LOL.
Yes, the dogs eventually got their walk, but first I fed them. Sasha decided not to eat tonight ... until I explained that we'd go for a walk only after she ate. She ate it right up and then did her time-for-my-walk dance!
Hope this weather makes it up north soon.
It is hot upstate, definitely swim weather, sm
You tend to have cooler temps over there. Upstate and across the river, much warmer.
Hmmm, rather than warm weather, could it be
menopause? I don’t have the sweating during the night. As far as the weather, my grown daughter told me one time if she had been born where there was snow (as you are talking about) as soon as she grew up she would get outta there- it is just what you prefer. I have only been snowed in twice in the past say 15 years and that is fine with me. Oh, I do enjoy the soup and salad at Olive Garden- and eat without sweating.
Where do you live that it is snow weather?
It's been close to 90 almost all week here in central PA. My DH loves snow and is ready to move north.
could be a weather balloon; they were orange

LOL! If you don't like the weather in Georgia, just hang around SM
a while and it will change soon!
How's the weather in your neck of the woods?
Mid 70s here in the Northeast with bright warm sunshine! Woo Hoo ! It's a doozy of a day.
What is the weather, What is the price, size, etc. sm
I am freezing up here. Would love to be able to buy and not rent.
I keep it in the office part time and on the patio part time
I've got the self-cleaning electric litter box (and boy is it worth the $100), and have a huge throw rug under it with a smaller rug by the litter pan that has a bumpy mat on top of it to catch the excess. I keep it in the office from April to October but on the patio from October to March as it is too hot in FL to leave the patio door open for them during the summer months. I also put out a spare box when we go out of town for the weekend.
Try a box that has deeper sides maybe, or not as much litter in it?
I don't bring my dog anywhere around food, unless it's nice weather and
the tables and chairs. It is allowed where I live. I have never seen anyone bring their dog into the grocery store unless it is an assist dog, I do bring my dog in her stroller into the mall and I have yet to have gotten kicked out over it. Children LOVE to look at my dog in the stroller. It is the type of stroller that has a screen on it so children can look and parents are not fearful that my dog would bite. My dog doesn't bite but it's an added precaution.
In comparison, my dog is friendly, is not a yapper, is well groomed, and potty trained. I have seen many, many children who are ill behaved, running around uncontrollably and I've several times passed by babies in strollers who smell like their diaper hasn't been changed in a week.
To the person who supposedly has the severe allergy, I say this...If you have such a severe allergy to dogs, then you most likely have severe allergies to a bunch of other stuff, too, and like the other poster said, you could just as easily be allergic to passing by the perfume counter as you would my 4 lb. chihuahua.
Lastly, to the OP, you need a lesson in manners. Even if you don't agree with the dog being in the store, you shouldn't have gotten ugly with the owner. She was minding her business, why didn't you just mind yours?
"Baghdad" update: crummy weather!
Our weekend in SF was unseasonably crummy - even for San Francisco! I was in Golden Gate Park on Sunday: Fog, drizzle, & wind. Bah!
I hear ya! I am waiting for at least sweater weather.
Doesn't look like it's coming soon.
Wow talk about extremes! What wacky weather! nm

We have very changeable weather, lots of extremes.
It can be blazing hot and humid in the summer, and well below freezing in the winter. I'm also a backpacker and am very used to hiking and sleeping in the winter woods, down on the ground with snow all around. I love that, but I'm always prepared for it. At home, I keep the thermostat at 62 during the daytime when I'm home alone. I wear fleece pants and wool sweaters and vests, and I'm usually comfortable. It's 18 outside today, but my heater hasn't come on once except for the morning wake-up when it automatically goes up to 70 for an hour or so. At 3:00 it'll kick up to 68 until 10:00 p.m., and then we sleep through the night back at 62. I couldn't do that if DH were home during the day. He likes the house much warmer than I do.
My office is next to the kitchen, so I'm keeping the chill down by making soup and baking bread today. I get up for a break, knead the dough, let it rise. It's about ready to bake now. Yum!
I'm enjoying this, but I'm sure glad it won't last here for more than a few days.... I hope.
Stay warm!
Normal wear for warm weather is
cutoffs and a T shirt, cold is sweats OR my flannel PJs.
You have fresh peas, too, in that cool northern weather of yours? :) nm

I'm starting to hate this southern weather, seriously. It was in the 90s this week. I don't kn
keep my tanks out. The other night I went to bed in sweats and woke up drenched in sweat. EGAD!!
I used to live in Upstate NY/VT and I miss those winters something terrible. Don't go on and on and on about how lucky I have it, because believe me, I MISS THOSE WEATHERS!! I owned my own John Deere snowblowers and LOVED every minute of it. I loved being snowed indoors. I loved making snow angels. I loved actually being able to eat soup and not sweat like a hog.
I miss it, miss it, miss it. I'm really beginning to resent my husband who has never left the south. I fell in love with him and we've never left. He won't even go up there to visit. He'd live in the Miami keys if it weren't for me. I haven't seen snow in 10 years! Please, someone send some my way.................
South AL is where I live - look up Orange Beach..
Schools have people across the county monitoring weather sm
to assess delays and closings. If there was legitimate fog, the school would be aware of it.
If it wasn't excused, it likely was A) not significant enough to cause any major delay or B) nonexistent.
Think, people.
The weather has been HORRIBLE just about everywhere his Winter!!! Mother Nature Angry! :-(.....nm

COLD!!
I live in Wyoming and it is freezing...high of about 5 tomorrow with icy north winds and -15 for tonight. I am tired of snow, I want summer so I can complain about no rain and being hot.
Wow, that's cold!
We don't know individual circumstances of every single person. Things happen. Sometimes we can control the things that happen to us, sometimes we can't.
If no one helps these people, we add to our future burdens on society. Help them find a way to help themselves and be productive, learn a lesson or two, take care of their own, take care of someone else.
Guess you have never made any kind of mistake in your entire spotless life. Good for you!
Unfortunately, the rest of the world's population is not so perfect and we make mistakes and hopefully learn from our mistakes.
At least with a cold pak. The need to be kept cold. sm
whatever, even if you keep them cold, they are total junk food, eaten cold or warm.
Just because they like them, like McDonalds, you don't have to feed them that junk. Yuck.
Anyone tried Cold-FX yet?
If so, did you experience positive results? I am looking for any help I can get this winter! Thanks!!
cold hands
I bought a pair of cotton gloves from CVS and cut off the fingertips. cotton won't make your hands sweat and they are very comfortable and keep the heat in. look for them where the first aid products are. if you can't find them someone in pharmacy can help locate them for you. you get several pair in the box and are very cheap!
I'm 45 and get COLD flashes!
While I'm glad I'm not suffering from hot flashes, I'm amazed at this cold business. It was 85 the other day, and I actually had a sweater on! My doc is sending me for thyroid studies, but she said that she's seen this happen occasionally, too. My mom and maternal grandmother also never suffered from hot flashes, but often complained of cold flashes. Go figure.
It might be cold where you are and they trying to find
