Happy Tuesday! Fall temps are in the air! Time to get out the oversized sweaters, and hoodies. Cozy clothes, to wear while sitting by a campfire, roasting S’mores. I am hoping that Fall can stay longer than a week or 2, before the temps drop too low!
Its been years ago now, but I will never forget a resident in the nursing home that I worked in before. She loved sitting in the lobby greeting everyone that came through the door. She was also always sure to let you know what she thought when cooler weather came. It was B-R-R-R!
Enjoy the quotes and have a great day!

Welllllllllll…that depends upon what part of Texas you are in. In Amarillo, it gets really cold and snowy. Ditto Lubbock and Wichita Falls. And, you’ll probably see some around Texarkana. The farther you head south, the less you see.
I lived just north of Austin from 2002-2011 and, in all that time, I saw two ice storms and one good snow. The weirdest one was hearing about Houston getting snow…one of those years.
And, when they do get the frozen stuff…imagine a city the size of Austin shutting completely down. They block off all of their flyovers. They do not have the ability to salt, sand or scrape much. It doesn’t happen enough for them to invest money into such things.

I can imagine that would shut a city down when you aren’t prepared for it!
It takes a lot here to shut totally shut down in fact the last time I remember was when we had big storm in 1993! Cops were making people go to hotels if they were on the road!

I never could color my hair worth damn. It is so dark and course that most products never took. The best I could do was a lot of HP in certain areas and that just made it dreadfully dry. I gave up.
I once used a box of Summer Blonde when I was 16, then got a perm afterward. FRIED hair. I never tried that, again.
