Never have been accused of being the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Prime example of why ------>Went outside a couple minutes ago to get the papers off the driveway dressed in shorts, t-shirt and flip flops.....as soon as I rounded the corner of the garage and that north wind hit me things started to shrivel up and I started picking up speed, I bet you could hear my flip flops slappin' the bottoms of my feet from six blocks away.

Just looked and the wind chill is 29°.

It's so cold.........

Ya worst time of year for me, I know winter is coming and summer fun is about over. Be fine with me if I could sleep till the middle of March.

Didn't light the dearborn heater until about 8:00am, and have turned it up twice already...

I'm likeing the cold. Good sleeping with a cold bedroom in my flannel sheets.

I like the cold compared to a sweltering, muggy, sun scorched summer. I can always stay warm but you just cannot escape the heat.

This. 10 times.

Oddly enough, as I get older, the heat bothers me more than the cold. Back in my 20s I worked outdoors. Heavy work, cold, hot, rain, whatever.

Now, I don't mind the chilly, but the heat just saps me.

But, I no longer do the heavy work like I did back then.

53 degrees with a light drizzle of rain here right now and i have been in my short sleeve shirt since before noon just about right for working weather.

45 degrees here with light drizzling and definitely not short sleeve shirt weather. Brrr

In my younger days, I preferred working in 100F temps over freezing temps.

Nowadays... I don't like anything above 90F or below 60F. :drunk2:

If you are working, low 50s is perfect. Back in the 80s, I had an automotive machine shop. In the winter I kept it at 55 degrees.
Folks would come in and comment, but as long as I was working, I was comfortable.

It's nippy !
