Hello Saturday and Laundry

I just got home from my son's and my laundry is put away.
We are fast approaching winter here, or so it feels like outside. We have high wind and temps in the 30s. I thought my fleece-lined hoodie would be enough. I needed my winter jacket.
I took the rock I painted for his girlfriend, Pikachu. He really liked it and said she would too. That makes me feel good he likes it. He's the artist in the family. It's only since I started rock painting that I started doing well with it.
I'm sitting here with my heater on and the heat on. I just might need to take a shower to warm up. My bones aren't ready for the cold, even though I am always ready for winter. My body needs to acclimate. A good hot cup of tea would work too. Maybe, I'll make some hot chocolate.
Anyway, it's cold here.
Above are the rocks I brought home this week. Peace completes the nine fruit of the Holy Spirit rocks I painted a couple of weeks ago. This is the rock that went missing until the end of the session last week and didn't get podged to come home.
How is your Saturday? Is it a day of relaxing or errands and chores? Thanks for reading.

I like the rocks, very nice work! That's great he liked the Pikachu one. Sorry it's so cold, even though you are ready for winter, I understand the body needs time to get used to it. Hot chocolate sounds good! We have had a few cold days in the 40's. The weekend is supposed to be in the 60's though.

@MommyOfEli2013 I didn't get a cup of tea as I wanted, but I think I will for breakfast this morning.
I'm looking forward to my son telling me how much she liked it.

@just4him waited'n that happy dance 'til he 'twas clear 'f cell service, coz he called me 'bout 12 times... not to check'n me, jest to brag 'n gripe 'bout his 'dventures. 'tis gettin' harder'n harder to hold my tongue.
'twas 80 here yesterday. 'nother front moved'n 'bout mid morn. those warm southern winds replaced by a boldly brisk northern'un. no ma'am, i keep my winter gear out most 'f the year. did get my winter britches aired out (can't wash 'em, they're army surplus - good to -60, wind/waterproof).
our weather changes'n the blink'f'n eye year 'round, so'm 'lways prepared, lol.

And I'll bet you'll be doing a silent happy dance that he is.
We won't see the 70s again until next year. We're in the 30s and 40s today for highs and lows. I'm glad you put the long johns away for now. Still more winter to come, so I hope you didn't put them away too far.

It has been quiet. It was ust a relaxing day. didn't get done what I had planned as far as houework, but will catch up later when I have had more than 4 hours of sllep. Temps are in the low 80 and we finally got a measurable rainfall here after going a month without. We should be near normal for temps this week. Glad you are happy with the temps you are getting. Bet you were wishing that snow would come coser to you

Yes, I was, especially when I saw how close it came and the only reason we didn't get snow was that we didn't have the system on top of us, but it went around us putting us in a corridor between the two arms of the storm.
Temps are in the 30s right now and not getting out of the 40s today.
I'm glad the temps are falling for you and you got needed rain.

I'm sorry. I leave the boring chores until I need to do them.
