Here are a few things that others and I have learned these past few weeks!!!!!
1. Nothing in this life will wake you up faster than sitting on a cold toilet seat.
2.. Propane camping stoves are a good investment.
3. The person who figures out a way to make gas furnaces heat houses without electricity will make a fortune.
4. Second most beautiful sound of the past week - the radio static caused by the power company being in your neighborhood.
5. Most beautiful sound - tie between hearing that loved ones are safe and hearing the whoosh of the furnace kicking on.
6. Look of the week.....scruffy.
7. It's hard to read with gloves on.
8. Great workout - cleaning your yard up.
9. Scent of the week.....kerosene.
10. Most fun - watching the trees rain icicles.
11. Are the people who love winter happy yet ?
12. Is global warming a threat or a promise?
13. Who knew cell phones didn't work during power outages?
14. Does anything feel better than a hot shower after days of being cold and dirty?
15. If it's 52 degrees outside and 48 degrees inside, should you open a window to let the warm air in?
16. It was warmer inside my refrigerator than it was in my house.
17. When ice is an inch thick, the best way to use a can of deicer is to hit the ice with the can.
18. I just wonder in nine months, how many baby's can wear a shirt that says "Winter 09"?
Personally, I think that #11 should be painted on a very large sign and positioned by the large piles of fallen/broken tree limbs that are all over our town. :wink:
