No Wonder....!
It's really no wonder that my kids, okay and me, too {SNIFF} get sickly this time of the year. Yesterday, it was 80 degrees. I sweated down at the Stockyards Christmas where we handed out the Trinity Writers' Christmas book and helped kiddos write letters to Santa. But later that night when I left my Yellow Rose Christmas party it was 35-ish and today the high is only supposed to be 50. By Wednesday, the high is not going to reach 40. Sniffles anyone?

It reminds me of a poem from a kid's show the boys used to watch, Maurice Sendack's Little Bear:

    Whether the Weather is cold,
    Or whether the weather is hot,
    We'll weather the weather,
    Whatever the weather,
    Whether we like it or not.

It got cold and it's staying cold in New York.

I went down to NY City this weekend and walked my girlfriend all around, Macy's, Sak's, Fifth Ave, the Library, Time Square, 42nd St and I even found a book fair where Susan Weinman from the Galleycat blog was speaking.

But I say all that to say.....cold, it's very cold outside in NY!

I don't mind the cold so much (though it was reeealllyy cold this morning) it's the going from 90 degrees to 30 degress in a day that gets me.

But this is Texas. You can swim one weekend in March and the very next weekend it snows - true story, happened my junior year in high school!

I am jealous of Bonnie getting to visit NYC at Christmas!

Sandy, don't be, I live in the state, and I used to live in NYC...to me it's no big deal, and it took me exactly 5 minutes on 8th Avenue to remember why I moved upstate.

At about this time of the year, I'd take Texas!
