It's windy and freezing out...And I have to go out and work...OUTSIDE...

[ScreamingMeemie]

:cry: I hate it when that happens. This is a house on acreage too, so there will be nothing to break the wind. :( :cry:

1. Last week I was installing siding in the late afternoon; it was cold

but sunny. We were thinking, "Hey. Not too bad." Then the sun dipped below the treeline, the wind picked up, and the "suck" factor increased dramatically. Then it started to snow! At that point I was channeling my dad, whose nickname is Grumpy Bear!

3. OOO icky! I have to measure the outside of the home and take

pictures...that seemed bad to me. Installing siding? Yucky. You poor thing.

6. Well, at least it was my own house, but we had to get it sealed back up

before the snow hit. It was just starting to snow and sleet as we finished up!

I love your kitty, too!

2. It's very cold outside here as well.

When I was breathing out of my mouth outside, I could feel my throat freezing literally. It's that cold out. :scared:

4. I am just hoping it is a relatively easy home to measure...with no big

bushes or anything. I don't wanna go. :(

5. Yikes!!!

Down here, you'd be complaining about having to work outside in August.

This morning, it's about 50, cloudy, windy...this weekend, we might drop below freezing and get some rain. ;)

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. I complain up here when I have to work in humid August as well...

some folks would say I complain about work...;)

And no fair, pulling out Texas temps...all you were required to do was feel sorry for me. :spank:

8. Oh jeez

Well, you layer, cover as much of your head as you can and don't stay out more than 20 minutes at a time. Oh yeah, drink plenty of water; you can dehyderate under all that clothing.

13. I survived....with only puppy slobber from an overzealous lab

as marking. :)

9. Poor Grumpy!

Have a hug to keep you warm! :hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. I'll take it!

:hug: I made it back sans frostbite!

[billyskank]

10. Nooooo!

Wrap up warm! :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

I still can't get my report to work

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. I did! PassingFair's daughter knitted me a scarf for Christmas and

it sure came in handily! :hug: Thanks for all those hugs! :hug: :loveya:

11. Do you have your electric longjohns on?

:hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. Noooo, but I think I should get some!

Although with all the water on the ground...:scared:

12. Bad day to be an appraiser. I hope it's an easy one.

But I must caution you about discussing breaking wind on this board.:+

Stay as warm as you can.

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. True!

I made it through. The house was a complete square so I didn't have to be out for too long, and the homeowner was helpful! :)
