    Unhappy Noooooooo!!!!!

    Noooo!!! It's TOO early!!! This sucks!! It's not even the end of September yet!!!!

    There's snow on the mountains as of yesterday. Today we woke up to frost on the grass and the car's windshield had a layer, too.

    It dipped down to the high 20's last night...and is a whopping 37* right now!! I need to get out gloves... Can't this wait until October??

    Just had to whine...

    You're in Alaska. When does it STOP snowing??
    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

    I got lucky here, it was suppose to snow here last night, but the storm went east, so now just rain, thank goodness, we are only in the 4o's today. I Feel for you, I was hoping winter would stay away until nov or something. Its way to early for this weather!

    Hey Kace!

    I've been bemoaning the exact same thing here in Colorado! It's been raining/snowing off and on here for two days, and currently is 36 degress ~ ! At least none of the snow is sticking. I'm not ready for this for at least a month!!

    Thank goodness this weekend it's supposed to be in the low 70's again!

    And be sure you keep it up there Luv2BeFrugal!!

    We are over 80 here today and supposed to have an El Nino winter.........which means MILDER...........yippeeeee!!! Not good for the water level but real good for my psyche!!!

    Whatever an El Nino winter has done to you in the past.....get ready for another one.

    Pacific NW here.. sunny and 75 here today.. I love El nino winters... except for the scary wind storms.

    This is my favorite time of year.. soo thrifty.. no fans + no heat + line drying the clothes + enough daylight = tiny tiny power bills!

    But I really love sweater weather too. Mind you, it is a bit early.
