Where is the thread to place our votes?

Suppose we should -- need to get the originator to re-name it.
Christine, I haven't voted for anyone's June list yet and I'm NOT astaring until May, so I would deeply appreciate it if you took my name OFF your list of people who have voted for your June list.

I won't be posting July threads till at least the end of May.

Thank you Janet!

I'm not sure why in April, June selections are being listed?! Anyway to avoid any future confusion I'm not going to post upcoming lists too far in advance, I think that's probably for the best.
So, like I said, July threads will go up towards the end of May and so on.
Hope you guys continue to enjoy PIFM. :)
Thanks for your work Janet, June does seem SO far away on this cold rainy April!
True, Christine, that puts things in perspective!
Yeah I agree and I love this warm weather
Mod
Yeah, I thought we must've been somehow moved from one side of the Cascades to the other considering how much it rained yesterday.
Christine wrote: "Well at least it’s not snowing lol"I wish. We just got a foot and half of snow over the weekend and more to come Wednesday. So OVER this 20 degrees and snow. So over it!
Deal with it, Angie. According to https://www.popularmechanics.com/scie... , warmer average temps means more snow per storm but a more rapid melt...once it actually starts to melt.

My my...I’m reading your threads about warmer weather as we dig our way out of an ice storm lol. Last year we were in shorts, this year our poor Robins and Spring Flowers (as well as freezing humans) are so confused. Sadly Christine it WAS snowing here yesterday...but that’s ok...I turned the fireplace back on and grabbed Greg Isles first Natchez Novel.
Melanie and Christine - so with ya! So done.

rain rain rain, I should have had my garden tilled a month ago and planted with peas and onions. Well, I am getting a lot of reading done :)
well, cheers to your rain and cheers to the snow! :) Reading time!
I would love some rain. My roses and my young plum tree requires my constant attention.
I envy all you snow troubled guys. Since I moved from South-Germany (small town) into a big city in Central Germany I rarely see snow at all and even if it sometime snows during the night it lasts seldom more than one or two hours in the morning. This winter I even stayed up several times to watch it snowing. Other than that I would not see snow last winter.Since Mid-February it was exceptionally mild we had two weeks in February with temperatures between 15° and 20°, another two in March over 20°. OK most of the time it was still raining but we had already a few summer-feeling-days.
Unfortunatelly I love snow and since an accident 11 years ago have to stay out of sun and heat - so I'm still not as happy as most of my neighbors. It's just impossible to get it right for everyone :-)
For our American friends: 15°C = 59 Fahrenheit, 20° = 68 and 25° = 77 (and we already got 25° twice this year and both during weekends - so most folks are really happy)
It's beautiful, Christine! Agnieszka do you know the town of Ulm? My daughter did a home stay with a family there. Thanks for the temperature translations. :)
I've never been either. I have a sister in law that lived there for 5 years, you'd think I would have gotten my act together and would have gotten out there, right? Nope. My dream is to see Cologne. I hear good things. Today seems to be way better weather-wise. It's sunny clear blue skies and 30. Can't complain I suppose.

My sister lives near Colonge and she said as well it's a nice city though if you are already there, Düsseldorf (the next big city in the area) is beautiful as well. If you want to visit Cologne you need to check the weather in advance. In periods of much rain with high levels on Rhine the city is usually flooded - each year at least twice (the last 10 years) for several days or weeks.

We're having another snow event where I am this week!! I've been pretty patient but this is getting to be annoying. I also work in Public Works so I'm ready to stop hearing about snowplow concerns too lol.I haven't even begun to think about gardening this year :(
I’m ready for summer because I have plans and that stinks Dana
It is only 64 here in So. California. Had to put a sweat shirt on to work in the garden. I freeze if it fall below 70.

My sister moved to Kentucky from here & is freezing her tush off right now. She tries to stay indoors with the heat on.I went to college in Oklahoma and it was cold enough that they had heated sidewalks from some sort of blowers. Really cold!

My husband works for Metro Transit and all the buses he's been working on this last winter have had a crash itself or someone crashed into them. It's been a busy winter for the union.

Patricia wrote: "It is only 64 here in So. California. Had to put a sweat shirt on to work in the garden. I freeze if it fall below 70."If I weren't the same way, I'd say "Wimp."
I admit it. I am a cold weather wimp.

PLEASE NOTE:
PIFM is meant to be FUN and not to be taken seriously. I would appreciate it if all participants just chilled and not get worked up about voting, who votes, who doesn't, etc. Please bear in mind that some will just want to vote, many don't come on everyday and most of us have time constraints. I just want a relaxed approach to it all and for you all to just enjoy the process! I'd really appreciate your courtesy in this matter. Many thanks.
