I am experiencing my first real winter out here in Wichita! Things I have learned so far about winter are...
1. Snow is pretty...
but icy roads are not worth it snowing!
2. Temperatures below zero actually exist!
3. Gloves are a necessity(I still do not have any! I have been using socks on my hands. Not working too well!)
4. 40-50 degree weather is beautiful and very much appreciated. You only need a light jacket!
5. I never truly knew what wind was til I moved here! And the wind makes 15 degree weather(like today) feel like temperatures that are just way too ridiculously cold!
6. That the feeling of being out of control on the icy roads becomes a normal everyday feeling! (Weird)
7. You actually need to own a ice scrapper to scrap and inch thick of ice off of your car every morning to even enter it! And possibly even a keyhole warmer to unfreeze your locks! who knew!
8. Everything freezes if left in your car! Even lip gloss!
9. Slipping and falling is still embarrasing even if everywhere you step is ice...
and last but not least...
and last but not least...
10. I am not made to live in cold weather! Take me back to Arizona!

Looks cold!!! You take after me. I never liked the cold and I still don't. Too bad you don't like hot chocolate. That is one thing that helps warm me up at night. You'll be home in less than a week - you can enjoy our nice weather for a week. Can't wait to see you.
six days, six days, six days!!! yahoo! seriously- can't wait to see you girl! please be safe & don't kill yourself on those roads before you come! love you!
an ice scraper for your windshield? Like a Mesa High ID card to scrape off the ice? heh heh, remember how we used to do that in the winter here?
haha. this is funny! Either because I had to learn the same thing once upon a time, or because people from Arizona really don't understand what a winter season means until they have to live in it. haha. Be careful driving!! It can get really scary!! Love You!!
I miss you so much Jess!! I can't wait to see you!!!!!
