Yesterday we had -12° at 5 a.m. That was a natural reading. By 2 p.m. (the warmest time of the day) it had only reached 11° without the wind chill. This morning at 10, it was still reading -10°. By noon, it had finally reached 5°. Thank God the wind is only stirring today. I have not shut the furnace down to below 70° in over a week. I don't like this Alberta Clipper. I wish I could send it back to Canada!!!

WOW!!!!!! You people in OHIO be very careful IF you go out!!! We just got an email from Mike's one aunt saying that they had -14 natural degrees this morning with a wind chill factor of -33. The dogs paws freeze when they go out, and aren't even out for more than a potty break. That's cold!!!! They are expecting a high of zero today. Take care all you Ohioans! Hope you are hunkering down for the day! or two, or three???? for the winter?

We are experiencing a heat wave today..... 26°. It was very cold last night, but we got about 4" of new snow. It is snowing again now. WE have another clipper coming across the Great Lakes tonight, but our temperatures will not reach the negative numbers we've had the past week. We are supposed to stay in the 20s for a few days, then dip into the low teens for the duration. That's better than the -12° to 12° we've had lately. Stay warm, everyone.

Hi Mary! Stay warm!!! We had single digit weather here, and thought it might reach 20, but it didn't. I still have the downstairs at 60 degrees, and it feels warm in here, except for at this drafty window, where the smells from the laundry room can pass right through the brick wall and window. Mike just told me I'm all swollen up again. That's daily from the laundry room at the apartments next door. With the 11 apartments in those houses (each of those houses being as big as our WHOLE house (front and back halves together), that laundry room is busy round the clock. OH well, that's JUST swell for me :o) Anyway, one of these days we will have that all sealed up, and draft free. Just paying off our part of Lindsey's college costs, still. And, probably still have another year on that, then we can go at the house with a vengeance, and get it in shape again. Right now, it feels like a money pit, just keeping it afloat_and since that earthquake went through, the small cracks are a bit larger, to the point we have to start patching up, soon. Probably in the spring. Okay, gotta stop talking here, and get THE MANUAL emailed. Take care and I'll get back to your other email soon. Does anyone else do this: put a letter in their draft, instead of emailing it? I was getting ready to email a friend from back home, when I decided to look into my draft folder to make sure nothing was in there. Well, I found a letter, a very long letter, that I had written to a friend of mine, who lives in Florida now, from March 2008 :o) LOL!!!! I am now in the middle of a VERY long letter to her, and to the friend I was originally emailing. By the way, I just received my FlavorWavePlatinum Oven about, hmmmmm, ten minutes ago? or so. I am so anxious to open it, but am going to sit here until I have THE MANUAL sent, and those letter done, and my prayer loops out. Mike told me I am up and down way too much. He laughs at me when I say I'm going to sit. It's a good think I type fast, or I'd never get anything done. That is why I ask you to please not see the errors in my typing at times :o) Take care and I'll be back later, I'm sure. Hugs from Columbia! :o) Lynn PS Glad you made it through that severe weather, and your travels yesterday, without any complications, Mary!
