Almost Freezing

As I sit here and write this post, it is currently 36 degrees outside. That, my friends, is almost freezing. However, I am not complaining, since I haven't even been outside. However, my cable is out and is not working. So, is it too cold for the cable wires to work? I wonder.

Herein lies the problem in which I believe Floridians tend to be "cold" when the temps drop below 70...........we have NO winter attire. None, zip, zilch, zero. So we (Floridians, but not me) freak out when the temps are indeed below 70, and the news has nothing better to talk about except how everyone needs to "bundle up tonight" and that when the temps get back to 80, IN WINTER mind you, that everything will be alright again in the world. Ok, so back to 36 degrees. That, in science, is almost freezing. So today, or at least this morning, we can say its a little cold outside. So what am I going to wear to Grace's soccer game so I don't freeze? (and for those who say, "Gabbi? Freeze?" Yes, I freeze. I am human you know. Just because I LIKE it cold, doesn't mean I can't BE cold.) Actually, I think Grace may not go to soccer today, since she does not have winter attire and will probably freeze her little soccer shorts off. (It was 30 degrees warmer last Saturday, and she was a little chilly.) So there you have it my friends, the one day where Florida is cold. Yes, just one.

Soccer Pics

Here are pictures from last Saturday. It was Grace's very first soccer game. Sorry it took me over a week to post, but here they are:

Pluto

The other day a show Nate loves called Little Einstein's was on and they were talking about the planets. They included Pluto, since I guess at the time they show was created Pluto still counted as a planet. So, I started explaining to Grace that there used to be nine planets, however, Pluto is no longer a planet and there are now only eight. Today, for some reason that I cannot remember the subject on planets came up and I wanted to see if Grace had remembered what I had told her the other day. So I asked her, "Grace, how many planets are there?" "

"Eight," she answered.

"How many did there used to be?" I asked.

"Nine," she answered.

"What was the name of the planet that used to be number nine?" I asked.

"Pluto," she answered. "But, now it's a dog."
