re: Why Can't June come after January?

I think it gives us in the south a little time to get ready for those sweltering humid days where you melt as soon as you walk out the door. LOL It's in the 70's now ans will be in the 60's tonight. Tomorrow starts the 80 degree days, very hot right out of the cold winter temps, we never get below zero but did have some cold nights here in Louisiana.

Hope summer gets to you quicker. :D

Wow. You get snow. We are either dry and cold (it was 23 degrees when we got up this morning), or we have ice. We cross our fingers that there's no wind, or else there goes all our tree limbs and power lines. Most (we do have our ding-dongs too) natives to the Hill Country of Central Texas, and I emphasize "hill," know not to go out because of the black ice. This is when arms and hips get broken, not to mention the 30 car pile-ups, on each side of the highway.

Sorry about the "nostril-freezing" (never heard it put that way) temps. I really do feel for y'all when winter arrives. I bet you do snack a lot. I've been in real snow a few times (imagine a puppy in snow for the first time - I'm almost as bad.) and am always impressed by the quiet.

Just think of me in June when it hovers around 100 degrees for days. If you want to know how that feels, take a deep breath the next time you open your oven. ;-)
