Yesterday I made it out for a run with my friend Deana. It was a pretty fast three miles because it was freaking cold outside, only 28F or -2.2C. That’s cold for Texas. You Canadians can go ahead and laugh now.
After the run I went with my friend Cindy and we did our mighty mighty power-lifting workout. Including squats, abs, deadlift and some horrible up and down lunging machine thing. It was hard. I screamed a lot.
Alas, a quarter inch of snow and Dallas shuts down . . . so we are prisoners in the house again today.
Yay.
I’m hoping to get out later for a five to six mile run.
I’m first!!!
Now that I won the grand prize for first comment. Can you believe this shit? I live in Texas for the heat, dammit!
My gym was CLOSED this morning. WTF?
Come on June!
Did Kenza get the day off of school?
Us Northerners laugh when an entire city in the south shuts down after a little snow. We go about our boring lives while you have a snow day. Maybe we shouldn’t laugh.
Hey, it’s not even snowing in Houston and the schools shut down. Unfortunately, my work did not. I agree with Flatman, I’m here for the heat. Of course, I’ll be bitching the minute the temps rise above 75 too. 🙂
I had to wear gloves for 3/4 of my last 2 runs – GLOVES!! What is up with that? THIS IS CALIFORNIA, DAMNIT!
I need spring – desperately need spring. You do, too.
Hey! We have that playset too! Get out of our backyard, you kids!
Your cold snap hit us here in Florida. It’s only 69 today with a low of 58 tonight. Time to break out the woolies.
That snow picture is funny.
Your gym allows you to take pictures? You should have a “Top 10 grimaces” post and open it to voting.
When you are doing that Ab exercise are you scared of tooting? …. or is it just me?
That’s some mighty impressive weights!
Yes, but you’ll get more mileage out of that adorable mitten shirt now too.
used to work at a school that had 2 snow days factored in. when it got closed to march and there were no signs of snow coming up, sometimes the sliiiiightest bit of frozen rain (OH THE BRIDGES!! WOULD SOME BODY DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE BRIDGES!?) we’d get our snow day.
hey, they’re figured in already. why be stingy? and when a northerner wants to really make fun, invite them down in august.
I am with you 28 degress is COLD!!! Bring on spring!!!
At least you are getting snow days. We are just COLD!!!
I am so jonesin’ to get my bike back on the road. Susan, can’t you use your magical powers and change the weather to mild and sunny in Dallas?
Stay tuned…
Snow in Texas! What’s going on? Thanks for the Celsius Susan – that’s cold. We only get -5C or so on winter mornings.

I’m in Michigan and I’ll never laugh at 28 degrees F. I am unbelievably used to it now, but it doesn’t mean I like it.
This cold front all over the map is annoying. I’d like some spring by now. Even though snow looks beautiful and is better than 6 months of rain…
