So why do all the news station make it seem like it never, ever gets cold up here. NEWS FLASH, it's winter it's going to be cold and, it will snow too!!!

Well, to be fair, we have five month long winters up here, but that doesn't mean that we're used to temperatures below zero Fahrenheit.

I remember recent winters when I bought the kids snow boots and sleds for christmas and they never had even the slightest chance of using them. This year though, we are getting our money's worth out of them! And for what it's worth, I haven't taken my boots off in a week. I usually switch to sneakers again once people have shoveled but walking in this cold, this year in particular, I need my boots!

I love all the weather advisories we get now when they expect 1-3 inches of snow here in Michigan. Oh really. It's Januray and it's winter. Most of us know it's going to snow and be cold and thus we dress and drive accordingly.

Maybe our advisories are for all the vacationers!!!
