We've been so spoiled with mild temperatures that even our regular seasonal temps would seem really cold. So instead Mother Nature is blasting us with extra cold temperatures. I kid you not. Yesterday the temps were in the -30 to -40 range (with the windchill it was almost -50!). Keep in mind those are all Celsius.
(so -22 to -40F, windchill -58F)
Tuesday night (very early Wednesday AM) I let the dogs out for their final potty before I went to bed. I picked Walter up from where he had curled up to sleep, opened the door so Tucker, Comet & Misty could go out, set Walter outside the door where he promptly fell over.Seriously :o Poor Walter! That cold was a bit of a shock... probably extra so because he'd been curled up on the dog bed in front of the pellet stove (yup, I felt bad)
He got back on his feet, pee'd and came in and tossed me a look that clearly said "what the HELL were you thinking woman!"
I will gladly take the snow, I just think this extreme cold is a little cruel. To try to take my mind off it I admire the snow and take pictures that amuse me, like this one... I think it looks like Mini Wheats for a giant

Well, good to hear that you got some snow, but the -30- -40 (+wind chill) business is not nice! I heard on the news that you guys were getting hit with a massive cold snap. Our coldest so far has only been -25, with a -37 windchill.
We have had snow three times since December 5th! I loved it every single time and even though our last snow fall was supposedly like "10 inches" (which is crazy for West Texas!), I have to say I am OVER it! I am ready for Spring!
Enjoy your snow!!! Have a blessed day!
We are finally getting snow here too, but much milder temps. Mini wheats for giants- hahaha
Brrr... I don't like those temps, especially with wind. In our house that cold comes right inside!
I do love your mini... or perhaps 'mega-wheats'!
We got snow too! I am very happy we got some anyways...
I love the snow covered hay! Absolutely looks like mini wheats! But, I used to call shredded wheat "hay bales" when I was little too.
Hard to imagine those temps!! Wow!
Super cold here too! I am over it and hopefully on Saturday they are saying back to warm temps for a couple weeks.
I like the mini wheats too, reminds me of a pic a friend painted of bales and her mom said it looked like cinimon buns, lol.
