You've already figured that out. <br /><br />My mom and I would argue - the cold of Green Bay Wisconsin winter vs the heat of a Central Texas summer.

Aren't you glad you don't let your BP overwork??<br /><br />As for climate differences, I am with you. I hate the humidity in Florida where I lived for three years, with no AC and pregnant with my third child for one of them. Give me cold anytime.<br /><br />Dianneschmidleysscribblins,wordpress.comhttp://schmidleysscribblins.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179072149199219335.post-6249679079606642232011-12-20T21:54:06.211-05:002011-12-20T21:54:06.211-05:00I remember getting paid in cash at my first job wh...I remember getting paid in cash at my first job when I was a teenager.

Sometimes, it is just TMI. I know it is cold, I don't need to know what it feels like.<br /><br />We have been paid once a month for so long, I don't know if I could handle a paycheck weekly.

I was unaware of it but it seems that I was sighing gustily in annoyance throughout the meeting. I plan to tape my lips together tonight.Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710135137635433217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179072149199219335.post-28647277763795228842011-12-19T16:14:17.564-05:002011-12-19T16:14:17.564-05:00Hi June, Just stopping by to say Merry Christmas ...Hi June, Just stopping by to say Merry Christmas to you and yours.<br />Love,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179072149199219335.post-60200743779951790982011-12-19T15:03:35.377-05:002011-12-19T15:03:35.377-05:00The weather office tries to use the term 'feel...The weather office tries to use the term 'feels like' instead of 'wind chill' (in winter) and 'humidex'( in summer) but it hasn't caught on. I think even the calculations were different with the new term. Either way, I still don't really get it. <br />I still get paid by cash and I really, really like that. I have one job where the money goes directly into my account and it feels as if I have worked for no pay because I don't get that cheque (but then my bank account does suddenly swell a little)VioletSkyhttp://violetsky-wwwblogger.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179072149199219335.post-43251914633616914662011-12-19T13:33:47.352-05:002011-12-19T13:33:47.352-05:00Just as well for them that you are taking notes, a...Just as well for them that you are taking notes, and don't have a speaking part.<br /><br />As for 'feels like', have you heard of 'wind chill'?<br />That's our temperature gauge here.
