So it "warmed up" some and we are in the mid 20s. And tomorrow, Fri. we get up to in 30s.......come Sat. a plunge down to 5 !!! And then the next few days below zero. Ain't it fun.......as they claim it will then climb up to the teens. One cannot keep up with how warm to dress. Ha. Oh, and of course, snow nearly every day but am thinking probably very light stuff. My neighbors on either side of me are gone......They knew when to escape. Ha. The one has been gone over a month now, the other just the past week.
Just hope everyone is taking it easy, watching out in the changing weather, taking care.
 
We are a bit behind you Poirot.... we are nice till Saturday afternoon then we go down to below freezing and stay there for the next few days.... today and tomorrow will be above freezing so we will be working on getting the yard ready.....over night lows in single to negative numbers.... it will not be pleasant....
Today will be one of a Costco trip a trip to Target both of those to pick up medications an then off to the grocery store to get some groceries as yesterday was Wednesday and the weekly doo dah's are ready.... sure miss getting a Wednesday paper with the grocery ads, I really dislike trying to find them online....it's annoying.....
If you haven't seen Carla's obituary it's in the Meme part 3 topic, Carla's family wrote a true honor for their mom......

Happy Thursday
 
Weather likes to confuse us all. Sometimes it comes in from the west, sometimes comes in from the east. Guess it gets bored, and decides to have some fun at times. LOL The sun came out, with the bright blue skies, but.......now the wispy clouds are moving in, so whatever .......is coming. Ha.
Gonna try to clear some more stuff off the desk here, trouble is when you are not sure if you should toss........or save......Decisions, decisions.
 
An overcast 27 degrees here. Can feel the chill through the windows.

Poirot: Wacky weather indeed, all around the country. Perhaps create a "maybe" box and put items in there which you are not sure about. Better to save than toss if you are in doubt.

Robin: The best to you with your errands.

Everyone have a great day.

It's sunny and 53 now. There's a chance of rain tomorrow afternoon. High Sat 36.

A good day at the library. A patron kept looking for books. I asked her what she was looking for.
She wanted suspense novels. I showed her some writers. She found a book on her own and will
probably do more research what to get next.

I finally got the fob for church. It didn't work at first, but the woman there this time to fix it so it's
ready to go. I didn't get to talk to her about holidays when office closed. I need to contact her and
ask if I can work Monday since they know now who's there. The old system no longer said who came in
and they weren't sure who was at church. This Monday a holiday, so I'm going Tuesday. Hopefully,
the cleaning lady remembers I'll be taking the paper out of the sanctuary.

robin, I hope you got your errands done.

Poirot, hopefully you can get out and do shopping before it gets colder. To clean the top of my desk, I have
box and put everything inside. Then I sort it.

Wilde Woman, wishing you a good afternoon.

I hope everyone has a lovely rest of the day.
 
Oh, my gosh! UP here, we have to keep an eye on the tank, as it gets sooooo cold, and all the pipes, etc. would freeze very quickly when we lived out at the lake, did not bother first week after a delivery, but after that, nearly every day. (my hubby had been in the heating & a/c business for years). So am glad no longer have to worry, since we moved into town. This place is all electric, which is nice in one respect, a pain in another. I really do not like electric stoves. Had gas all my life, think it works much better. Well, can't change it, so live with it. rf, hope you did not get too cold or have anything freeze on you, and that by now, you are back to cozy, warm.
They still have not come and fixed the fireplace, and tho temps right now are o.k., come Sat./Sunday it will take a huge plunge, into the below zero area.......That is when the fireplace would get turned on. Do not want to live with 67°. Last weekend I put on the electric stove, not for long, just to get the heat from the oven for a bit. I don't like to have it on with nothing in it.....I don't think anything would happen, but were cautioned no to do so with gas oven. I have an electric space heater for this little office area........with windows and and glass patio door on the 3 sides (4th is open to dining area) it gets so cold out here. Up north is nice to visit, and stay in winter for snowmobiling, but....when you live here, there's a few drawbacks. LOL
 
I have moved my porch tree in....it if planted in the yard might be okay this upcoming week but in a pot probably not....we shall see.
It was a pretty day tomorrow will be too then cold ugliness arrives.... ick
