    I ran 4 miles yesterday in 26 degree weather - in Texas...it's not supposed to be this cold. Everyone thinks you're nuts.... :D Then again, they all think I'm nuts anytime they ask and I tell them my mileage and it's in the double digits no matter the weather..............

    I'm going downhill skiing on Thursday. It's supposed to be 26 degrees. That's practically T-Shirt weather up here. :laugh:

    I still smile when I think of San Antonio with a 1/2 inch of snow. I was in El Paso when it got 2 inches. There were adults there that couldn't remember that much snow. They had some good sledding hills in El Paso once the Trans Mountain Highway was closed down.

    You can't even utter the word around here without everything shutting down. I just shake my head because I'm from northern Ohio originally.

    Nice Leslie. Have a good rest today and may the sun keep the heat coming in and the cold wind at bay. :smile:

    Back at it again tonight. Just finished surgery to take a string out of intestines that was attached to two pieces of plastic, one on each end. The one piece never left the stomach so the string was trying to cut through the intestines. This dog is going to feel so much better now that the string is out of there. :smile:

    I try to also ^, but sometimes they flip flop me from days to nights during staffing shortages. If I was kidless it would be a breeze to live on nights!
