The Buzz Around Town
It's the weather! Everyone is talking about the weather reports that say there will be rain mixed with snow tomorrow. "Did you hear that?" people ask each other. We've most of us heard the weather news but now and then there's someone who hasn't heard it.
"We could move to a warmer place," we say to each other, but then we finish up with the fact that we'd really rather have it on the cool side, even possible snow tomorrow, than have it in the 80's and 90's. "That awful heat!" we tell each other. Most of us would have moved by now if the cool weather bothered us, but then there's those who are tied to jobs who will move to warmer places as soon as it is possible for them.
As the saying goes, we talk about the weather, but we don't do anything about it. After all, we really like it to be on the cool side and we all have sweaters and jackets to keep us warm if we need them. We need them today and tomorrow!

I'm heat sensitive and had suffered from heat exhaustion several times in the past. Maybe that has something to do with why I took so long to get used to the heat. Just a guess.

I really believe that some people are more suited for cold weather than others. For most of my life I've liked cold weather and everyone around me thought I was crazy. I just felt better when the temperature was below 60. When we first moved here, I had trouble with the hot weather, even thought I had lived in Florida before and in the tropics. I wondered how I was going to live my life here. I've been here 12 years now and just last year I started to become acclimated.
