Couldn’t Stand The Weather
By
My husband called the other morning and wanted me to put out a missing person’s report on one of his appendages, he stood in the brutal wind helping the commuters at the local train station with the fare boxes.
It was -7 that is “NEGATIVE SEVEN” degree’s here in the windy city and it’s outlying suburbs. What the heck am I doing here? What the heck is this weather good for I ask myself? I think of those penguin’s from March of the Penguins, and I wonder to myself, WTH good is it when you can’t even enjoy the outdoors, whose cruel joke is this?
As we head into Christmas the snow is flying and I long to sit in that blue hammock up there, our’s will be spoiled by the snow, and sadly he will most likely miss most of Christmas - so those of you that may be in the snow covered cold area’s, remember your workers out there that make those streets passable. Give them a hot cup of coffee, a wave and a smile, or give them a winning lottery ticket so we can get the hell out of dodge!
A Stevie favorite - Couldn’t Stand the Weather and pretty tough to play from what the “boy’s” tell me.
All these years you and I’ve spent together,
all this, we just couldn’t stand the weather…..
Cheers to my husband for being out there..one of these day’s sweetheart, Christmas will be in the tropics..
Peace & Merry Christmas

Ah, SRV, I don’t think the song was really about the weather.
Buck has a real mans job which means he is a slave to the weather.
He is a hero to the folks in your town. They would be F’ed without people like him.
Susie I know you will enjoy your holiday, make it so for your boy and husband. I am so great-full to have gotten to know you over the last year. A friendship that will last a lifetime and more.

@Danny - I am glad those Jimi & Stevie notes continue to resonate from your house as well! Truly a bond that can’t be broken - for all those that they have touched and brought together.

Whatever it may be…. creations is creation. If we talk about paintings, it is the fact that pencil sketches explains the truth than colored one and have experienced about it.
After all it is an art to show your creativity without pouring the colors and make it live from the nature…
Decent articles and creativity I have seen on your blog.
Thanks for invoking my memories that has been hidden from last 2 years…

It is cold over here as well. I’m spending Christmas in Glasgow, where our show is…and it’s Freezing!
No matter about your husbands appendages…Yesterday there was a knock on my door and I opened it to find a small brass monkey, enquiring if there was any welding available.
