Talk about a rough winter! That nice week of 40s and 50s still didn't manage to melt all of my snow.

Spring has started here and I am thinking of that awful summer heat.

We did have a cold winter here another cold front coming on Sunday.

Hope y'all warm up soon.

our temperature is hovering around freezing with rain, freezing drizzle, ice pellets and snow in the forecast, depending on your exact location.

Arizona tourism officials launched a “stepped up” travel advertising campaign in Chicago promoting the Grand Canyon State as an easy-to-get-to and warm vacation getaway.

Yesterday the forecast said it would get to -1. Now -1. Who knows what tomorrow will bring? -10? -20?

At least I have plenty of oil w/thermostat set at a toasty 58, and a heated lap rug that is truly toast.
