For me it's the cold weather in general that kills me! I HATE being cold. When we got here for Thanksgiving last year, had to go and buy thermal underwear for me and the babies. They got sick as soon as we got here and remained sick until we got back home 3 weeks later.

In Buenos Aires, temperatures below 32F (or 0C) only last 2 weeks. Here it was "spring" and it was below freezing...

yeah...right!

Anyways, while reading the instructions for the Affidavit of support regarding tax returns it says that you can present transcripts or a photocopy from your own records if you attach the W2 or 1099. That is what I sent and they asked for a complete tax return.

Anybody knows why?

haha! i am the same way! below 72 i start wraping in blankets and complaining. i sleep in flannel pijama with blanket when hubby sleeps in undies with only a sheet! lol! he makes fun of me!

i don't like winter and snow except maybe the day after the first snow. winter should last 2 weeks, just to play!!

but i also HATE ohio's summer!! in the 90's and so humid you leave the porch and want to run back in the shower

problem with complete tax return is that you might forget one W2 or 1099, or one Schedule # and you're screwed. tax transcript is just safer.
