I took the dogs for their walk and it was a balmy 35F here in Florida. I dressed as appropriately as I could, with no winter gear in my wardrobe any longer. Socks, sneakers, jeans, t-shirt, sweatshirt, zip up hoodie with hood up and knit gloves. 

All was good. It was brisk, but not frigid. Yesterday's 20mph+ winds had died down, only a light breeze. Off we go. It felt a little chilly, cuz let's face it, a sweatshirt and hoodie are not a winter jacket. But whatever, it was only a 20 minute walk, about a mile. 

Halfway around the block IT happens. Yes, the dreaded hot flash!. Here I am, in 35 degrees, sweating like I'm at the gym on the elliptic. Now, hot flashes only last a few minutes, but when they're over, the sweat is still there.  I'm out in 35 degrees, in just 3 thin layers. I was shivering by the time I got home 10 minutes later. 

This is why coffee exists. 

I'm now convinced every male expert on global warming is wrong. The Industrial Revolution may have contributed, but all those baby boomer women hitting menopause in the late 1990s kicked it into high gear, and us Gen Xers are carrying the torch (literally) onward. 

Enjoy your Sunday!

Only you could have a hot flash while outside during an epic Florida cold snap!  It was 15 here this morning. I didn't walk. I have no guilt or shame about it.  LOL

I'm glad that no one was hurt, rick.  Take care and it is good to see you even though the circumstances are unfortunate. 🤞for a better February!

I'm not kidding. You could drop me in the middle of Antarctica naked during a hot flash and I swear I could melt the entire ice cap in less than 5 minutes. 🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣

I'm off to the gym, where being sweaty is not looked upon with horror and revulsion. Instead they look at you and think "Damn, she had a good workout!" 🤣

[mollyhousemouse]

goodnight everyone

Back from the mountain. The trip was awesome and terrible wrapped in one. My oldest had a great time. He's a natural on the board. My youngest has a knack for ruining trips. This one was no different. My brother and SIL drove an hour to pick him up so we could actually enjoy ourselves. Later that night, he did the same thing while cosmic tubing.

I love experience's, I would spend all my money letting my kids try everything under the sun. It's so hard to have a kid who gets excited and pumped but ultimately makes it miserable for everyone. We're planning a trip to Disney World next year and I'm seriously second guessing it. Seems like a lot of money for something that will end in tears for everyone involved lol. WHY ARE KIDS SO DIFFICULT?

Hey gang. Sorry I went poof. Had a few medical issues that put me in ICU for a week and am now working on normal again. Hopefully I get sprung from this joint by end of the week. Wings was supposed to drop in and let you know what was up, but apparently my brain was firing better on all these weird drugs than hers was normally.  Go figure.

 

Any way, I am on the road back.

Good to have you back Kitt. We were getting a little worried. 

Get better soon!❤

I know it's your kid, but there are hungry alligators all over the Orlando area. Just saying...

@kbois

Thought of you yesterday while I patrolled my yard, machete in hand, searching for fallen iguanas. I planned on decapitating any I ran across before they warmed up. Alas, it was all for naught. Haven't seen even the baby ones running around.

I haven't even seen a gecko in about a week or so. Lol.
