Thanks for the new thread, Candice. Love the title.

Lutesse

great title!

Have you got much snow yet, Sue?

Romantic In Denial

Not really, Sherry, but thanks for asking. It's been a strange winter. We got blasted in Nov. but nothing in Dec. Tomorrow we're supposed to get freezing rain! Give me a snow storm any day!

Lostcandy

Thanks.

My dad called me yesterday to ask if I wanted to go to the Sugar Bowl. I missed the call. My brother and he went. I told him he was Alabama's bad luck.

I was rooting for Alabama, I hate how everyone from OSU insists on putting The in front of it. Too bad Alabama lost it's linebackers, once they went out they gave up that huge run and the game was pretty much over.

Lostcandy

Don't remind me.

I have an old college roommate who is from Columbus and went to OSU for grad school. She's been texting me today. Bragging. It's all in good fun. We can't win them all.

Lutesse

Oh, definitely - I'd take snow over freezing rain any time.

Maybe the snow gods are giving you a break after the endless winter they gave you last year.

Definitely, losing helps you remember how awesome winning really is. Keeps the team humble.

That's what I tell myself when my team loses .

Lostcandy

That's good advice.

Lutesse

Good philosophy, if you can do it.

MaybeSomeday

You just have to repeat it to yourself over and over . Especially after you lose.

Lostcandy

Sounds like a winning mantra.
