I mean, we'll drop down into the 20s for a hard freeze a couple of times each winter, but this sustained cold snap is way beyond the norm. We had a low of 32 last night, and it's supposed to be upper 30s tonight, getting a bit warmer as the week goes on. Our office is the coldest room in the house, and I'm wearing a glove with the fingertips cut out (a remnant from playing a hobo in "Annie" a few years ago) on my mouse hand because my fingers are freezing!Storm Safety Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03909177915058996187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4940430766843750390.post-68445219914555932732010-01-31T20:28:23.598-06:002010-01-31T20:28:23.598-06:00Hey, Judy!

Unfortunately, MeiMei was being a pill about going outside when I was in the living room. She was a stray I tricked into eating some drugged food so I could rescue her. She's never forgotten and never forgiven. She doesn't trust me anywhere between her and the exit! LOL I'll bet you missed Lady!

I'm going to have to get out tomorrow and rake all the leaves that were protected by the eaves away from the house.

We got 7 inches of snow here in Northwest Arkansas, but it was pretty and fluffly. Of course after shoveling the drive and the neighbor's driveway, my arms ache and remind me why I don't live in North Dakota anymore!
