TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE

It's the middle of January.
We've had no snow.
None for Christmas.
46 degree days.
Unheard of!
I enjoyed a long slog today.
My FITBIT says I went over 6 miles.

I'm not complaining.
In fact,
I'm requesting NO SNOW.
January is nearly over.

Let's not bother.
Shall we?

    A mild winter for many, so far. My niece went to FL for a week last week before starting a new job this week. The beach/sun, etc. looked so inviting! I always think of you and your love of FL!!!

    It has been a strange winter so far! Good for you for slogging over 6 miles! You rock! P.S. I hear they may be a storm coming your way tomorrow. If so, post a pic or two!

    Six miles? Are you kidding? Lola and I go about 2 and we think we're cruisin' and we're tuckered when we get home. What is that BITITIFI thing of which you speak? Do I need one of those? Does Lola need one too? I don't blame you. If it's not going to snow for Christmas it need not bother.

    You keep slogging. I will try and keep the beautiful white stuff that fell in my neck of the woods today, away from you.

    I agree. The only part that bothers me is that I have bought the family season passes for skiing and have not even been up this year. Bummer!

    I agree...we can skip winter.

    Since we rarely get snow here I can only say...or maybe I should whisper....I'd love for it to snow. Just a couple of inches. And last for one day, or maybe two. I'm a little picky. blessings, marlene

    I decided a few weeks ago that this no snow weather was a result of all your whining and complaining last year!
    You did it!!!!!!!

    We have had snow the last couple of days but they are prediciting warmer temps, high winds and LOTS of rain by Thursday. Flooding can be real possibility by the weekend. Enjoy your mild weather for me, we are in for some nasty stuff here.

    I have loved not having snow!! The problem is, it looks warm outside . . . until you open the door! I've heard it is coming though - are you ready?!

    Thank you for all your prayers and encouraging words . . . friends give me such strength!

    Hugs,
    Barb

    1. FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC on the six miles. I don't care what you call it or how it looked, you MOVED 6 miles! Good on ya!

    2. I wish all January's could be like this one. Except that we just got snow and wicked cold temps now....boo and hiss

    I hear the snow is coming! That's because I'm in E. Montana visiting Max and driving home today. If you ever want snow, just wait for one of us to travel... It works the same as washing your car and waiting for rain!
    6 miles is pretty darned impressive!!

    good grief Tauna
    what is a "slog" and a "fitbit"
    I know I live in Canada, but I think it is still part of the universe we both live in and I have no idea what that all means.

    BUT....we have not much snow either.
    but holy hell..........It is 31 degrees BELOW (farenhiet) tonight.
    I am frozen
    I think I need to find some whale blubber for fuel

    I love our lack of snow this year. I'm thinking I need to move south just so it can be more like this every winter.

    6 miles is great! Pretty sure I went .6 miles today, maybe, OK, more like .06 :)

    Hasn't it been DIVINE though! My grass was starting to turn green.

    I agree... Let's not bother with snow this year! Of course we'll need rain in April for things to grow, but we can do without the snow. Today, however, it is way cold... I think the high is -1. Brrr!
