Because tomorrow night here it will be MINUS 5 degrees....and that is NOT the wind chill.
Because it hurts to breathe outside.
Because all of the cars are gray with roadsalt that is making rust as we speak.
Because it is so dry in our homes that when you kiss your wife your lips blow off from the static electricity in the air.
Because you thank God daily for remote start because your car needs to run 20 minutes before you go anywhere.
Because it is impossible to push a shopping cart through snow ruts.
Because your furnace/boiler will not turn off now until April.
This should be our last year, (read our last winter) here in NY. I'm bummed because I ran out of ice melt for our walks, and had to go buy another 50 lb can of it.
69 more days until I am back down there. Can't wait.
