A sleepless night of watching the water pipes. I was watching the local weather and the temp at the substation in our town was -14* a windchill -35* at 9:00 AM. I can't wait for the weekly paper to see what was recorded as a low during the night!
If you picture walking up to a car in Syberia stiff and frozen, the steering wheel won't turn, the door creaks and groans, trying to start the car slowing makes a small groan before eventually starting. Even though I had it running 5 hrs earlier.
The wind was so cold on my face it felt like menthol when I got out of he car at the mail box. The snowless ground was so hard I thought it could split. During the day the deck and side walks moaned, groand, banged and popped.
Yesterday the city was 6* for a high, Today the city will be 18*, tomorrow 28*, Friday 38*. I use to hate going outside in 38* now that seems like a heat wave. Especially if we make the 50* on Friday and Saturday.
My Fybromyalgia and aches/pains make it hard to move. I just curled up on the recliner with a heavy afghan. I wish the hot tub was running.
Hope everyone else is though it safely.
