It’s COLD Down Here!

For those wondering if it ever gets cold in South Carolina – the answer is YES. This morning it was in the upper 20s when we left the house. That’s miserably cold no matter WHERE you are from. Last night it was in the low 30s when I drove home from work.

What’s wacky is that it is going to be in the mid-sixties the beginning of next week. It’s a wonder there aren’t more sick people walking around our area with all this fluctuation.

My car was particularly cold this morning – no frost on the windows (which was fortunately), but still VERY cold. CootieGirl was bundled up from head to toe and she still complained about the cold. I told her that maybe we’d start parking my car in the garage (despite the broken garage door) so that the car is a bit warmer in the mornings during the winter. She was totally on board with that idea. To that end, I bet she’d love having a garage heater so that it’s even warmer in there when it’s time to leave for school. *lol* I wonder if the guy down the block who hangs out in his garage watching tv has considered gas garage heaters?

We got our gas bill yesterday and I was happy with the dollar amount we have to pay – a fourth of what we had to pay in New Jersey (yee haw!) and perfectly reasonable given the fact we were here for the entire holiday season.
