    Not me. I may take a shower in a bit...not sure I can handle the excitement though!  8-}

    I would live on Kauai, maybe in Kalaheo. My ice cold toes can only dream of the warm sandy beaches right now. Relaxing on a beach with a shaved ice (Mmm macadamia nut ice cream on the bottom =P~ ) sounds like heaven!!

    ETA: DH just informed me that it's not warm enough on Kauai right now to enjoy a shaved ice on the beach. :(( A girl can dream though.

    Hi ladies! It is so flipping cold! I went to the store (to get bread, eggs, and milk before the big storm, ya know! Kidding.) and my toes and fingers haven't warmed up since I've been home! Because of the cold, I only worked one day this week. I teach...we have a TON of walkers who would have fingers and toes falling off in this weather! -26 wind chill is too much for me, too!

    Oh my goodness! If I could live anywhere, I'd pick Hilton Head Island, SC. I have so many great memories from vacationing there as a kid every year. It probably would be different if I live there, but I like to think it wouldn't! Of course, if I had a billion dollars, I'd have homes in lots of places!!

     

    Stay warm ladies!!!

    It was -25 when I woke this morning!!!!  Both vehicles are dead!!! I hate winter at this point.  And today I am working.  Which means there is a high possibility of me being out in the cold.  I'm one grouchy paramedic.

    As sad as it sounds, I'd live somewhere rural just a little more south.  I'm a country girl at heart.  But I would love a vacation home in Belize close to the ocean.  :)
