Yes, you read that number correctly- EIGHT DEGREES. And, the Sun is shining.
Let's all just weep for the California Boy.........Culture shock is one thing....A 77 year old housemate is another shock.......but EIGHT DEGREES for the California Boy------OMG!!! (for ME, TOO)
The Plow Guy arrived well after we went to bed....the driveway got plowed and he shoveled the walks. I am going to call and leave a message that he doesn't have to shovel the walks...we can handle that. It's really way too much for this guy- Who knew my husband etc etc.... he feels duty bound, I think to help me out. And I am grateful..Very. but not enough to want him to drop dead shoveling.
The Oil Company also stopped by to fill the Oil Tank--just in case.....Which I am also very thankful for- as I do get a bit twitchy if I think we might run out....and freeze to death.
I am going to collect onion skins at my next visit to the grocery store....sometimes they have already cleaned up the bins but I could get lucky. I read an article about dyeing cloth with onion skins...new to me info. I have some scraps of fabric that could use additional color. And I feel like doing a bit of that sort of thing. My son is NOT going to think this is a "good idea" so...I may not get to dye cloth with onion skins.
I had hot dogs for lunch yesterday...I reminded myself that I like hot dogs for lunch. With mustard and relish.....I also like them well charred...blackened. I did not appreciate the news...so I watched something else. Is Nicole EVER coming back???????

My mother used to save onion skins to dye Easter eggs. She loved the different shades of brown in the eggs. I'm sure they were pretty, and I'd appreciate them now - but we were brats - we wanted the little dye tablets that turned the eggs red, blue, etc.
Yikes! stay warm!!!!
we have you beat in Michigan - this morning I think it was 3 - but hey it's winter - it's supposed to be cold - LOL
