cold

The Texas freeze affected many in the state, including the animals around us. One alligator survived the freeze in an ingenious way.

We can't always choose our friends, or can we? What is the saying? People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. I believe that 100. I've made unlikely friends over the years that I think wow, I went from barely knowing this person to all of a sudden we are lifelong friends, with a lot in common! Well here is one thing that many of you probably do not have in common with me and

It never fails, this time every year, yours truly gets sicker than sick. I always lose my voice. That is a given. But I also typically end up with the worst type of cold, one year it was the flu and let me tell you it stinks! Who wants to be sick for the holidays? Not me!

My momma would be so proud. Who remembers growing up using Vicks Vapo-ruuuu for everything? If I woke up with a sore throat, Vicks. If I started coughing, Vicks. If my head hurt Vicks. I would have to rub it on my temples. No lie. Mexican mommas didn't mess around and there was always a jar of Vicks somewhere around the house at any given time. How did that stuff never run out? lol

It's that time of year! Colder temps will be hitting the 432 soon with the holidays right around the corner. We felt it a little bit last week when overnight temps got into the 40's but colder days are coming and for those of you who may be spending your very first winter here with us in West Texas let me lay down a few ground rules for cold weather attire.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it looks as if it's going to be a very cold Valentine's Day 2021 this year. Sunday is Valentine's Day and in case you couldn't tell, a cold front has moved into the area. We are bracing for way colder temps for the end of the week and especially for the weekend.

I have always and will always be a firm believer in 'momma knows best.' We all remember things our parents taught us and instilled in us, some lessons more than others. I will never forget when the weather got cold as it is now, my mother was adamant about me covering up or I would get sick. Thus the cotton balls you see in the photo. I have become my mother. lol

It's heeeerrree! Cold weather, my favorite time of the year has arrived! Who's with me? I absolutely prefer having to bundle up as opposed to being hot and having to shed clothes. I love sweater weather! When I left my house this morning, this is what the temp was and our high is only 39 so not going to warm up much today.

The.struggle.is.real. This is my work space for 4 hours every week day. A chair, a mic a, blanket and a sweater. Why is that? Because the only setting Leo knows is meat locker that's why! It doesn't what I'm wearing, I will still be cold.

As heard on Leo & Rebecca in the morning, how do you like your Pop Tarts? Rebecca loves chocolate fudge Pop Tarts, fresh out of the toaster. Leo is weird. lol He likes strawberry Pop Tarts, NOT warmed up, gross.
