The Weather is Changing - AGAIN!

They say in our State that if you do not like the weather, just wait a few hours or a day and it will change. It seems we have had a very extreme hot summer with a few cooler weeks in between. It has been quite warm and tonight we are going to break the record for a record low temperature. We go from closing the windows and turning on the air conditioning to opening the windows until it gets too chilly and close them again. I love a nice cool NW wind and by the looks of the western sky, we might even get something called rain. We hardly know what that is in this State and the crops are ruined this year. That is sad.

Cold Weather

It is no time to remove the sheet blankets from the bed yet. One night it is so warm, you have windows open and almost sleep on top of the covers. Then just like that, the temperatures drop and you pull the blankets up around your neck to stay warm. The furnace did get a rest for a few days but it was short lived. It is good weather to have something baking in the oven. It helps heat the whole house and smells good too.

How Cold Is It?

It is very cold. Was zero again this morning. Then with the wind chill, it was way below zero. You can tell it in the garage that it is very cold. We let our little dog Holly out into the garage to do her business on newspaper. It doesn't take her long to run back into the house. My husband, who is retired, just doesn't want to go anywhere on days like this.
