Gone till Christmas

I'll be living in MO until Christmas. When conversing with a friend as to what to expect regarding weather, she readily declared "Oh yeah - it gets cold here."

My response? - "define cold."

"I definitely gets down to thirty-four, even thirty-two here."

Trying not to convulse with laughter, I asked, "Does it even freeze there?"

"Yeah - it snows two or three times a year."

Me - "Wow. Cold to me is thirty-below - not thirty above."

"Oh. Yeah. It definitely does not get that cold here."

Lesson Learned? - seek the definition of cold because it's likely not the same as what we in NNY would define as cold. =)

I miss seeing you in church and around other places as well. I pray God meets you and sees you through your trials. I trust you had a good Thanksgiving Renee. God is good. You are a blessing and you are loved and missed.
