Good afternoon from sunny but bitter cold, SW. Pa....I think we might be UP to about 8 and although the wind has died down, I don't want to know what the wind chill is now....Poor Jake was almost ready to come inside last night but then decided to stay in his cat house, which is heated.....Thank goodness a lot of places were closed today, I just hate to think of all the people who did have to go out....But, then we didn't get it as bad as those further north and east of us.....Florida is looking better and better although, it was pretty chilly down there this morning.....
Mary, good idea to stay inside and read or sew or even take a nap....
The kids tell me, my car is excellent in snow, but Ruby and I both would rather stay inside...Poor thing has been spoiled and won't like being parked at the airport while I'm gone but she will be under roof, just not heated....
Jana, hearing about you ironing shirts did bring back memories, good memories and you know, I'd give anything to be doing it again....But, like Mary, not much in the house that needs ironing any more, maybe a little "pressing" once in awhile..The only time the iron gets a real workout is when I'm quilting.....
Thank goodness for those like Aaron, what would we do without them..Prayers for his safety as well as those he helps.....
Chickie, I have a feeling if my car sat outside, I'd never be going any where, even if it does have that starter thingie and heated seats, which I forget about, lol....You are braver than me, going out in nasty weather.....That book is getting better and better and I'm determined to finish it today..I thought about telling Kathy about it but she and Tim just left this morning on a cruise, lol.....
Becca, Hoping things are improving in your neck of the woods...I imagine you've gotten the cold weather but hope, you're all comfy cozy....
Not sure what all I'm going to do today, which probably won't be much...I do have a couple of the old time flannelette blankets in the washer that my sister had given me...She had given me 5 quilt tops that had to have been done years and years ago and I thought, I might use these blankets instead of batting...Just another thing on the "to do" list...I'll need to live to be about 120 to even get half the list done, lol.....
As far as dinner, still have about a bowl of soup left so maybe that fried egg sandwich might be on the menu......
You all have a good day, stay warm and safe.....
Happy eating...........
. But it does get the job done! Reverse is true in a hot summer .
! I will try to behave.
