Here's the deal. I know, really I do, how cold it is in central Missouri and the US; I have talked to family members in Missouri, Iowa, friends in Indiana, etc. I know about wind chills, below zero temps, icy roads, waiting for the bus, breaking ice on the pond, feeding hay.
But, down here in south Texas, a high of 39 degrees makes people bundle up like they were in Chicago! Today in Walmart in Laredo I saw shoppers with heavy coats, hoods up, scarf around their neck, covering their mouth and nose; only their eyes visible.
Instead of staying indoors all day, we went to Laredo. Glen and Gary had a list of supplies needed for their electrical project. Evelyn and I had grocery lists; stops at Kohl's planned.
Lunch was Red Lobster! Gary was ready for something without rice and refried beans! lol
When we got home our neighbor had left us half a dozen fresh picked grapefruit on our doorstep! Boy, those will taste great for breakfast.
Glen, Evelyn, and Gary went to Fred and Gay's tonight for music. At the last stop --Lowe's--I did some sneezing. On the way my I was sniffling and nose wasn't normal. I didn't want to share whatever was coming over me. I stayed home.
Sometime during the evening it all went away. No more sniffles. Guess it was a reaction to something in the air.
