    You walk into a 64 deg. house and take your coat off because it's warm.

    You let the cat out and it comes back in on 3-legs- within 3 minutes.

    The dog wants out, does it's business, then sits on the "lawn", and sticks. (painful to watch, yet soo funny..)

    ..and this in the last 2 hrs. :bug:

    Please, add your own.... :yes:

    You know it's cold when you have to pee on your truck door to get it unlocked :D

    I got nothing to add yet, as it's still warm. But dogs sticking to the ground sounds amusing :D

    You are on a caboose & pee off of the back of a moving train, as
    soon as the pee hits the ground it freezes & it pulls you off the train.

    When the lady of the house hangs laundry outdoors and when she brings it inside, it is stacked like cordwood. (I can't imagine hanging wet clothes outdoors when the temperature is below freezing. Oh the hands....)

    You only have two and a half days worth of work left to do on a work to finish a couple contracts, but might not be able to finish it till spring.

    I'm afraid this one is too real for me right now. :(

    You are camping and you need to eat your soup/stew out of the pot while it's on the stove. Otherwise it will freeze faster than you can eat it.

    You have to keep dipping your beer in the hot tub because it is freezing before you drink it.

    ...when your wife finally stops nagging you about all the time you spent cutting, splitting, and stacking wood throughout the year, and asks if the heat can be turned up.

    I'm running a boiler system controlled by a thermostat. So yeah, she's correct in that aspect.
