I feel that.. my lady also loves the heat..Pulled out of Arkansas for the last time! Heading to Tucumcari, NM where we’ll spend tonight and tomorrow then finally heading back home to AZ on Thursday morning. We (mostly me) wanted to take an extra day to just relax and not rush like we always do so we’re hanging around NM for the day Wednesday. One bonus is we get to eat at the Mexican restaurant La Cita we always visit while we’re there. I can hear the Chimi calling my name. lol
Annie wanted one more fire in the fireplace so she got her wish. It wasn't even that cold last night just raw from all the rain the last 4 days. It was 80* in here and of course she's dressed in a long shirt and leggings and still cold while I'm sweating in shorts and a tank top.
…. ((As I’m writing this she’s saying it’s cold 
it’s 72 right now and we have a heater on for her.))
No lie she grabbed my arm the other day and I thought she had an ice pack in her hand but there wasn't one. I swear they have no blood and I always grab her arm to make sure she's really alive!I feel that.. my lady also loves the heat..
So I’m usually sitting infront of a fan in similar attire as you
I've never seen anyone who's cold all the time besides...... 
. I was already going 35 mph when things literally got sideways.
Can't say I haven't done that more than once!Gave myself a mild heart attack. Rainy and about 50 degrees. Standard 300+ pounds in/on bed. Getting onto I81 from on ramp and decided I needed to give it the juice to get into traffic…quickly found out I gave it too much juice when I had to let off the gas and steer into the skid
Done that in the crew cab long bed 6.0 F250, too!
I had something similar happen in my F150. We were up in Northern Maine and had my clamshell snowmobile trailer and hit a patch of black ice and started to see the trailer trying to lass me in my mirror. Well not exactly but it was going sideways and my buddy followed me thought for sure it was going to jackknife. Luckily we were going slow and it straightened out but the pucker factor and skid marks were real.Can't say I haven't done that more than once!
Sounds like despite the adrenaline keeping a cool head and not panicking is amazing getting us out of potential disasters.I had something similar happen in my F150.

In times like that. Dad will say, "the pucker factor was high."
Back when I was running my dump truck my old timer trucking buddy blew a front tire on his truck loaded on the hwy. He said " there was a time you could not have got a toohpick between the checks of my ass". Didn't wreck held on tight.
There isn't anything like a steering tire failure to get your attention and start drawing up parts you didnt know could be drawed up.
Very true Chris @Chris M. Which is why Dad constantly tells me to make sure that I have good tires on my truck. Ya'll stay safe!
Of course I couldn’t sleep and was up at 2:30am so might as well get an early start. Lol
I do the same thing. If I wake up we are leaving. No sense tossing and turning for hours!Packed up once again and heading home to Arizona!

Reminds me of a movie. I think it was The Great Santini - the family left for road trips in the middle of the night because they would make better time.
