#9 - After saying goodbye to someone it is followed with a "Keep warm!"
#8 - You just want to stay in bed under the covers
#7 - The house begins to make loud cracking and popping sounds
#6 - You can't close or lock the outside doors because of the frost surrounding them
#5 - The dog doesn't want to go outside
#4 - The extension cord you use to plug in the car is frozen stiff (to heat the oil pan or the car won't start)
#3 - The ice is forming inside your windows
#2 - You have to bring some of the animals into the heated garage from the uninsulated barn
#1 - The eggs you pull out of the nesting boxes are frozen solid (and the coop is insulated and has a heat lamp)
But life here continues on as usual... schools, shops and businesses remain open. We just dress a little warmer and the topic of most conversations is the cold.
