You know..you're right about that. Always said I'll put up with the heat as I can't take Winters anymore. Indiana boy had enough and got out of Dodge in 1985.

I can also make a fashion statement while out and about.  ;)

   What????     Surely there isn't someone complaining about turning on the A/C??   Arkansas has already had more COLD temps and Low Wind Chill  Readings AND more Snow , Freezing Rain and Sleet Days than I have seen in a Very Long Time. Granted, there wasn't much snow involved, but sure has been alot of ice and COLD weather. Like several have commented, I am NOT a COLD WEATHER Person. Looking Desperately for SPRING, Only with adequate amount of rain Please.  ;D
