28 this morning. Part clouds, part sun. Bright with the snow out there but not too bad. Not much breeze after all, but now supposed to come in tonight.
Came home from PT. Today was achey but now I feel better.... Saw DS and he said that he has to go into work AGAIN tonight since the wind is supposed to be high tonight now.
:th :barnie He wants a good nights sleep..... feeding now and then going to get some sleep. Going to work at the house today for awhile.

Yeah... it has been too cold for too long now... starting to seep into the bones


Brrrrrr
Have you got a hot tub ? That sure would be great to warm the cold bones and relax in while gazing at your beautiful clear sky.....
If not, get the boys to build you a log fire heated one out of a big metal feed / water tub, looks fairly simple to build one...( it's on my to do list) :love

We have one... spouse loves it..

Me, I think it is sheer insanity... go outside mostly naked, walking through snow, and climb into that thing??

Where your body cooks while your face freezes? Brrrrrrrrrrr

Nah, I will stay indoors and look out the window!

Right now I have on my warm sweater, my cowl, my hat, and my indoor/fingerless mittens.

Still cold... think I need to crawl into bed to warm up... school is over anyway...

Probably the ONLY thing I miss about snow,... is a clear sky a hot tub and being naked in it soaking :love

I also have one of those pizza pans with the holes in it, all I ever found it good for is for all the sauce to leak through the holes when the pizza was cut.
You cut the pizza on the metal pan :eek: Not good for the knife or the pan!! Slide it off onto a wood cutting board first.

Got the snow cleaned up, then it dumped another inch or so.
I cleaned up yesterday not long before DW and DD2 got home. Some snow overnight with lots of wind and the icy wind pack surface. I shoveled a path to the road so they could get out, will run the blower again later. Mr NOAA says we are getting another 3" today, Mr NOAA's new radar (which I still can't understand) looks like there won't be much in the way of heavy clouds to make 3" of snow.

So will only buy one, or store it in the fridge.
Like others said, freezer. But loosen the slices first so you can take out what you need. You don't want to thaw the loaf as a unit, nor in the refrigerator. Bread slices thaw pretty quickly or you can pop it in the toaster for a short time.

I can't do a lot by hand
Chainsaw "by hand"?

Coffee is on.
Have a meeting this morning, then school, rabbit cages and bring in firewood. Oh and the horses need their sheets and blankets. We'll see how some of them do. They've never had blankets. But rain tomorrow then the nasty temps. Bought 3 waterproof sheets and they arrived a few days ago.

Thanks for the coffee. We gotta go to town this afternoon, check the PO Box and maybe pick up a few things at walmart. Yesterday I planted some English peas in the garden. Maybe I can do some more gardening today.

The dogs have been going crazy at night, a neighbor lost some chickens to a bobcat. It seems when we have new baby lambs, the bobcats know and they lurk about.
