Oak Lawn Cold Weather Joke

Posted under Local Information by judyo

Brrrrrrrrrrrr! We’ve had a pretty nice winter so far but now I’m realizing why I hate winter! Last night a couple of pipes were frozen so my husband had to go into the crawl space and luckily by banging on some pipes the flow started again.

I’m an optimistic person so the good thing about it is that I was able to buy more frozen items than my freezer can hold since I can store them in my car or garage with these sub-zero temps. Of course, I’m keeping meat products in the freezer but bought some extra bread and frozen fruit items at Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods the last shopping trip to each one since I don’t get to them often.

I was sent a cute joke that I thought I would share since it is so appropriate to what we’re feeling here in Oak Lawn Illinois:

Top Five Signs It’s Just Too Cold

5. The power goes out and none of your perishables perish.
4. A stiff drink takes on a whole new meaning.
3. People are intentionally dropping hot coffee in their laps.
2. Your Siberian Husky hides his leash.
and the number one sign is…

1. Even the trash refuses to go out!

Maybe it’s time to consider moving to a different, warm weather state. Check out my Arizona and Florida pages to search a couple of real estate websites in those areas.
