sumone's lef' de nawt' doo' standin' open wide
geez, it's col' enuff to slice clean thru ma hide
wind's 'bout forty mile an hour, mebbe mo'
sumbody, please watch you' manners--shut de doo'!

de temp'rature's dropped 'bout twenny-five degrees
an' dey sayin' tanigh' we'll have a hard freeze
surprise' we ain't got snow--it's sure col' enuff
i sure hates de col'...on s'utherns, it is ruff

we ain't use to dis col' weat'er in da sout'
i know whut did it...it's doze damn yankee's faul'!
ever'time dey come 'round, de weat'er get bad...
make me miss de summer, an' de heat we had!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

it really is cold out there...highs in the
middle thirties (the other day, it was
in the 70s) with a stiff stiff north wind.
BRRRRR!!!!!!!!!! this ex-yankee ain't
used to that kinda cold no more. :)
(i know, i know...i gripe 'bout the heat,
i gripe 'bout the col'...never satisfied!!)

just a texan shootin' off at the mout'...

thanks fer puttin' up wit' me.

(((HUGS))) and love,

karla. :)

Great fun read, Karla. I feel bad about complaining how cold it's been in the islands. At night, it's in the upper 70's and it's freezing for me! I'd never survive in your weather... lol

Karla,
Loved this. I can not be happy until it is cold outside. The colder the better! I know I am nuts, but I love it.

Fun read!! I know what you mean living in S. Fla when the temp drops to sixty I'm freezing.

We complain when it's hot
We complain when it's cold
We complain when we're young
We complain when we're old
Complaining is natural
Or so I've been told
I'll bet I'm complaining
When a gold harp I hold.
