This weekend, everyone seems to be going in their own direction. I work all 3 days at Kohl's. Kaitlyn has to "cheer" at a basketball tournament their high school is hosting. Kristen has moved back into her apartment (she lived at home with us during the Christmas break because her roommates all went home and she can't stand being by herself - must get that from Bobo) and Joe went to the Oklahoma Panhandle this weekend to bird hunt.
Yesterday was a gorgeous day here in Oklahoma. When I got in my car to go home, the thermometer said 79 degrees, I kid you not. Now that's the kind of winter weather I'm talking about!!! BUT, as typical in Oklahoma the temperature is supposed to steadily drop and by this afternoon, it'll feel like winter (for Oklahoma) again. At least this morning when I was out feeding the dogs (which I do when Joe is gone, at least he took his bird dog with him) it was very pleasant with NO WIND. For those of you who have never been to Oklahoma, the wind blows 24/7. The only time you comment about it is when it's blowing hard (30-40 MPH gusts) or it's not blowing at all (which is rare). Also it all depends on if the wind is blowing from the north (a cool/cold front is moving in) or from the south (warm/hot - means high fire danger). We're VERY weather-conscious out here. For all you people that have snow, I DON'T ENVY YOU! I'll take my warm weather any day - I'm a tropical kind of girl.

I hear you on the wind. Out in the country where we live the wind blows ALL the time this time of year. Partly because we don't have any big trees yet! The weather was really nice today (low to mid 70's) and it is suppose to be around 48 tomorrow. You know what they say about the weather in TX, if you don't like it, wait a little while and it will change!
It's super windy here today. I hope our house stays intact!
