Utah Forecast.... Great, If You're A Fat Polar Bear

There was a headline in one of our papers yesterday... "Utah Forcast - Great if you're a fat polar bear."
See this link: http://www.sltrib.com/weather/ci_7996853

LOL! It is TRUE, TRUE, TRUE.

Yesterday morning I woke up to 4 degrees Fahrenheit AND I had to haul my polar bear bum outta bed and go to work... I would have stayed in bed, but today was my "one day a week at work"... uggggh. (This - and recovering from Wed night's church event - is why I missed yesterday's Thoughts for Thursday.)


I do not know what it was this morning, but I put the dog out, let her back in, and crawled back in my polar bear cave. Today I am staying home papercrafting in my warm fuzzy slippers and fat pants. (Yes, I am a fat polar bear, but a wimpy fat polar bear, see the cute little bears on my pants? HEHE! I have blue fuzzy slippers, too, but didn't want to crawl into the closet to fetch them... PINK will have to do today... )

Inky (Fat Polar Bear) Smiles!

OK, here's the link to my pic. This is the warmiest (and fuzziest) pair of "slippers" I own - and coincedentally that's what we call flip-flops here in Hawaii!

Enjoy,

PS-I'm horrified that my toenails aren't painted, but I'm 9 months pregnant, so just pretend they are a pretty shade of pink.

Hi Erin

I emailed you a pic. It's down to 0 here now....brrr...cold!

The slippers I have on are crochet/knitted ones and elderly friend made me years ago. I just tossed my old fuzzy slippers... too holey for this weather! :))

Thanks for the chance!

Oh, what fun! I was just blog hopping and fell across your page. :) I can never resist a giveaway, and I've never done anything for an 'RAK'. I'm not even sure what it stands for but have seen some great stuff given away as 'RAK' on other blogs and I'm all about the crafts!
Polar Bears are too cute, and I'm in Utah, too... so chilly out!
Anyway, here are my pictures. These are from this past Christmas. Some Slipper-socks (see the cute no-slip-grip snowflakes on the bottom?) my hubby got me and me wearing my fun, ever-so-comfy, granny garb pj's in front of the Christmas tree. :") Gosh, I can't believe I'm sharing these!
