4. Oh, same here! A couple of months ago I was wishing that the weather could stay just like it was

The summers have gotten unbearably hot and back in the day I had a summer job at an amusement park and I don't know how workers there now stand it. Back when I worked there, my boss used to send the mechanics around with "salt pills" for those of us out in the heat. And I don't know how the rest of the winter will turn out, but it's mostly in the low 30s overnight, then gets up above 40 during the day. I'm not counting on it staying that way, but I'm grateful for it while it lasts.

Stay warm, my friend! I remember when my grandmother moved to a retirement community in Western North Carolina, beautiful country and I visited her often. But when they got any snow at all, people would freak out and you didn't want to be on the roads with them. My younger cousin moved there permanently after attending college there and I asked her what they did if they got any real snow - and she said that they just waited for it to melt!
