Mother Nature is MEAN

So yesterday (Tuesday 12/9) was steamy.  It was one of those overcast days that always confuse me.  Up north, when the sky gets overcast the temp usually drops.  Not so here in Houston so I get confused.  I think it will be cool outside even though the temperature says otherwise.  Such was the case yesterday.

It was overcast and breezy with a high of around 80 degrees.  It was 70 degrees at 6 am Tuesday morning when I stepped out to walk Brody.  I was wearing a t-shirt and sweat pants.  Both of us were sweating by the time we returned home.  It was steamy like when you go into the bathroom about 20 minutes after someone has showered.  By the time I was headed to school (around 4:30 pm) my car says it was 82 when I left my house.  When I arrived at school (35 miles north and west) my car says it was 66.  It was incredibly windy--like, knock you over if you aren't careful windy.  By the time I got out of class at 10 pm it was 50 degrees.  

This morning at 6 am it was 34, rainy and very windy.  In my just-woke-up-daze I thought, how does that happen?  How can it be 70 degrees one morning and 34 the next??  Needless to say I went right back to bed.  The dog was ok with that once I let him out into the back yard to potty.  He didn't want to be outside either!  We curled up together for another hour of snoozing.

Mother Nature is just plain mean.
