I'm not looking forward to the weather in Chicago when I fly there tomorrow. High of 3 degrees on Thursday! I can't cope.
1My it's suppose to be 16 tomorrow with a low of -4. Bundle up!
2It's a good thing Madoff didn't try the "fake his own death in a plane crash" trick.
3I'm bringing the warmest coat, wearing 12 pairs of socks and gloves, and thick boots. But its worth it, I'm going to see Oprah taped on Thursday!
4Luv you Hillary. I know you will do a good job
5We've had strange weather here. Yesterday it was in the 70's.
6And most of the week it's been in the 40's and 50's.
