~Winter Weather~

We sure have had our share of snow and cold weather lately! The snow is just beautiful—while you’re inside, that is! Last Saturday, approximately 1/3 of the state even got blizzard status! This was the first official blizzard we’ve experienced since moving here from California. What a lot of snow! The temps are just downright miserable though! We’ve had bitterly cold “arctic air”. I sure will be glad when this cold snap is gone! After this 30° will feel like summertime!

I understand about the bitter cold! Although we do not get a lot of snow here the temperatures plummet lower than I like. I prefer the temps to be 30 degrees and above! Today is sunny and our temperatures are in the 20s - it is almost like spring outside!

I have a question for you, but do not feel you have to answer if it is too personal. You have mentioned wearing skirts on your blog before, and I would like to know: Do you wear skirts in this cold winter weather? If so, how do you keep warm? I can wear skirts all spring and summer, but once the cold weather hits I layer on thermal underwear, wool socks, and pants in effort to stay warm. Other than church, I do not wear skirts in the winter because I just cannot stay warm. Pardon my prying - I admire women who can wear a skirt all the time.

Heather, I do wear skirts/dresses only year round. I do not have to be out in the cold too long anyhow, so it really doesn't bother me that much. I have found that if I have a scarf and gloves on, it goes a long way to keeping me warm on the way back and forth from the car. I also wear tights and Cuddleduds. The Cuddleduds I fold up so they are just below my knees. (I really need to hem them up shorter, then I wouldn't have to fold them up! LOL) Oh, and I don't wear skirts made out of thin materials. When I see teen girls trudging through the snow in their bare legs and feet, with strappy sandals on, I shake my head in disbelief!

Jennifer, thanks! Our cold weather pattern is supposedly going to "hold" through the end of this month. I don't think the groundhog was right this year. LOL

Jodi, great list! =)
