It sounds like a fine excuse to pull a sickie

But then, we usually have a warm spell in the middle of the winter (January) where the temps hit 60 or 70 for a couple of weeks. Confuses the plants & trees, but it gives us some relief. Then it's back to teens and 20s.
Tonight is our first cold night. May get down to 35 or so. Our first freeze is due soon.
Oh Lordy...I'm moving there in January! I'm gonna be in deep doodoo methinks!

I was mistaken. I thought the forecast for last night was 35, but it was 25. We had our first freeze.
You're moving here in January? Maybe you'll get lucky, and we'll have one of those warm spells while you're moving! Where in Oklahoma will you live? I'm in Tulsa. The eastern half of the state is beautiful.
You gotta be tough to endure the weather in Oklahoma. Temperatures range from 0 to 105 every year. And there's always wind. We definitely have all four seasons. But there are also incredibly blue skies and lots of sunshine year 'round.
