093. Let's Talk About the Weather with Mona Weathers

Author: Mona Weathers March 18, 2024 Duration: 14:25

I tend to talk about the weather a lot. A few weeks ago I brought up the weather to one of my daughters and she laughed and said, "Why do you always talk about the weather?" I told her it's because it's a big part of my life as a homesteader and horse owner. My daily life changes based on what the weather is doing.

I also like to talk about the weather because it's a universal small talk topic that everyone has an opinion about. Let's chat about the weather today on the show!
