Field Notes- 24 degrees. Very Cold. No Sun. No Wind. Monday.


 Already thinking about the Milk Jug seed starting project.  Out on the back deck.  I can get the containers filled with soil now (before it freezes) and then be ready to add grit to the tops with the seeds in January. Let the weather water the seeds- snow mostly.

It snowed yesterday during the Football Games as we ate our Pizza.  Sideways. With the wind blowing. Wind Chill at the stadium where the Patriots were playing (Boston) was very cold. I forget the number.  Our team won.  I watched a few other games.  The Pizza was very good.  I had a glass of wine.

I will be wearing my big black long and heavy coat to the grocery today.  Winter has Arrived.

In Germany, this Time in the Season, was called the Dark Times. Dark by 3 or 4 pm in the afternoon. Dark when we woke up.  Immer dunkle.

So.  I haven't turned the lights on yet.  The Furnace is running.  No newspaper as it's Monday and our paper doesn't print on Monday.  I have books to return to the Library and a list to take to the grocery.

I don't have much more to write.

Tell me what you are going to do today?

  1. Make applesauce and pumpkin pies for my church's Community Meal tomorrow night. Do some straightening up, please. Try out a Wendy's peppermint Frosty when I'm out and about.

  2. I am cleaning LOL getting ready for family.

    It is so dark here at 5pm, I find myself wanting to go to bed at 6pm. It takes my all to stay up until 7! The only thing that kept me up last night was watching Netflix's Down to Earth with Zak Efron, it was excellent.
