Living in Indiana

This morning, a very wise person posed the following, “I know we live in Indiana for a reason, what is it?” That isn’t exactly the way it was worded — there might have been an expletive that I purposely omitted — but the basic concept is the same. When you live in a state where the changes in seasons are drastic — you really aren’t equipped to deal with extreme weather conditions.

Before a forecasted snow, people swarm grocery stores buying up more items than they could possibly use before the spring thaw. While I snicker at their paranoia, I often do the same thing. You must be prepared! After all, it could be 70 degrees tomorrow, or it could be 3 below zero. Why do I live in Indiana? Today, I don’t remember either.
