I remember christmas Eve and day as wel. On Christmas Day, my mom accidentaly let my then Leaderdog Nuggett outise the back. About a half an hourr later, we heard a bark at the front door. Nugget was left outside in the cold for a half an hour. Also, we had no heat ahd Cristmas Day was on a Sunday7. We had problems with the kitchen sink as well. Because of the Monday Holiday, we had to pay doubletime to the heating guy and the plumber. ?Also, I was starting late nght rehearsals for Naughty Marieta with Lite Opera Works in Evanston. What a time that was.!!!

You got that right!  Older!  But, really, it's only a number!  You're as
young as you feel!    I also remember that awful cold in 1982!  In 1983, on
Xmas Eve, it was super cold too, and I rember we were having Xmas at my
parents house, and my husband and my brother kept going outside every 15
minutes to keep making sure their cars would start!  Hello Spring, where
ever you are!    Linda

Hi all:

Yeah, I remember being out in this winter weather in 1982.   My mother had
to walk four blocks to get the bus that brutal day when it hit -82 "real
feel" temperature .   The winter of 2014  was brutal for sure.  I'm,
however, grateful that I was able to walk to church  this past winter
because we had good neighbors that plowed their walks .  As we are getting
older, the bones feel the cold as well.    Eileen

I remember the Winter of 1982 where the windchill at Ohair went down to
minos 80 in mid January. The actual temperature was 26 below. I hope Spring
gets here by the Cubs home opener. That day is April 4th.

Wow!  It's been brutal this Winter!    The last time it was a low wind
chill, a few weeks ago, I went to empty my garbage, and misjudged where I
was, and I didn't have gloves on!  It took me 3 to 4 minutes to get back in
my garage!  My fingers were getting numb, but Thank God I didn't get frost
bite!  Hurry up Spring!    Sincerely, Linda

Good afternoon my fellow Federationists.

My body has finally decided to calm down. Five hospital visits for a total
of 18 days since November. Nock on wood. With luck I shall see everyone at
the Chicago February meeting. I will try my best to get Bart Hickey out to
the meeting as well.
