Arctic Cold!!!

BRRRRRRRRR!!! It is almost 10am, and the current temp in Eldridge is -12! We are under a wind chill warning, as the wind chills will be 30-35 below today!! Good day to stay indoors, that's for sure!! A dear friend of mine was so kind to call me and tell me she was going to pick up Katie to take her to school. She saw no reason for me to drag Jacob & Emily out. God Bless Her!!!! Wonder who I can talk into bringing her home?? LOL Plans for the house and moving are kind of crawling along. We have met with one builder so far, and have plans to meet with at least 2 or 3 more. We are about to make an offer on a lot we found. It's 1.3 acres, and in a small subdivision on the north end of Clinton. There are several families with young children in the neighborhood, which would be wonderful!! It's all a bit overwhelming. I stumbled across a cool website last week. I have a really hard time finding jeans that fit well, so this site was a dream come true! After answering a few simple questions, it searches tons of brands and styles to find what would be the best fit for you. The site is www.zafu.com. They claim to have a 94% success rate. One of the styles that was on "My" list is a pair I already own, that honestly fits quite well. I plan to try to find some of the others to see how accurate it really is. On a sad note, I will not be able to go to my local Eddie Bauer to try on the reccommended style from their store. :( Both Quad City locations closed this week, leaving me to shop only thru catalog and internet with them. Boo,hoo for the Parker's who love that store!! Anyway, even just for fun, you've got to check this site out. I thought it was very interesting! That's all for today. Stay warm, friends!!!
