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!!!

Valerie said...

We got 8 inches today. I'd love to share!!!

Connie said...

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!

I'm with you. No point in bringing the snow now!

just call me jo said...

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.

Don't you love mr fitbit? Best buddy ever!

We got a bunch of snow yesterday and it is SOOOOO COLD TODAY.

Kim said...

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

Hugs

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.

We got maybe and inch or two, today. Not too bad, and it's already melting. Yay!

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

CB said...

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!!!!!!!

Connie said...

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.

Get ready baby!!! You will probably get hammered before you know it like the midwest/east coast did. Hang in there!!

Barbaloot said...

It just means Feb, March and April are gonna be rotten. I refuse to trust this weather.

Barb said...

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

Mikki said...

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

Near 70 degrees here today...I thought it was winter...felt more like spring. Enjoy your mild winter. Sometimes we get snow in February here. Hugs

gigi said...

After last year you deserve a mild winter! Go you!!

CB said...

OK you shouldn't have said anything!!
The news this morning reported we are supposed to get 4 to 5 inches in our valley tommorow which means double for you!
Boo Hoo

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

Valerie said...

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!!

Ann Marie said...

I'm not complaining either.. as long as I don't have a snowy May.. I'm a happy clam.

LUCKY!

Julie Harward said...

I so agree because we are having the very same weather! It has been so nice to still be walking outside! :D

Saimi said...

I know it's crazy isn't it! You guys are usually buried by now! We haven't had any either!

Debby@Just Breathe said...

The weather is so different then last year! Hope your wish comes true.

wendy said...

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

Grumpy Grateful Mom said...

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 :)

AiringMyLaundry said...

I am also requesting no snow. I hate driving in it.

Debra said...

Did you get some today? Our spring has finally unsprung.

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

Laura said...

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!

Laura Lynn said...

Us too - I love having no snow yet! And 6 miles - You are the bomb!
