1. We turned the heat up, bundled up in sweatshirts and coats and always turned the car heater up to high.

2. I haven't watched any of it. I've had zero interest so far, but I'm sure I'll hear news about downhill skiing and hockey.

3. ... that children grow very, very fast.

4. I'm a morning person. I like getting my day started quickly and early. The rest of my family are not morning people, so I get to have the place to myself and get ready for my day.

1. Most of the time I stayed inside. I only went outside to clean off the sidewalk. It was slick out there.

2. I hope the United States wins more. I am keeping up with the scores, but I'm not watching it.

3. ... that it's great having a family, and having a great-grandson who plays basketball.

4. I am mostly a morning person. I used to get up early to go to work and be at the bus station by 6:30. Now my brain still wants me up in the morning at the same time.

1. I ate a lot of soup. It warms you up. Chicken noodle.

2. I haven't been able to watch it. I work all the time. I need a day off to watch the Olympics.

3. ... that everybody can't do what Trisha do.

4. I'm an all-day person. I'm not one who is draggin' in the morning or one who just lights up at night. I'm all day.

1. I stayed indoors. I got out to clean the driveway, though. I also get out every day to fill my bird feeders and carry in wood to burn.

2. They were worried about security but so far that's been working. I've been watching it a little. I like the ice skating. I think the U.S. will be in the top five.

3. ... that it's an unsafe world today.

4. Morning. I just love to get up in the morning, get out and feed the birds.
