It is one of those awful days

The sun is shining, the wind is blowing and the temperature is very COLD. I do not want to even take out trash. But I have. I have been reading a book that the 5th grade students are reading. It is going really fast.Bob stayed in bed very late so I made a brunch dish of eggs, bacon, spinach, onions and cheese. Bob has gone back to bed. I am currently sipping an herbal tea that has elderberry and other things in it. We got that exercise bike, but it is still in the back of the pickup. I want it inside so I can use it, so I may brave the cold and wind to get to that point. If we must have high winds and cold temperatures, we should have snow, but we do not. We had ten minutes of snow at about 3 yesterday afternoon. And a few flurries this morning. How are you, and how is the weather?

@GardenGerty It's pretty to look at but not to walk in or drive in

Florida is being thrown into the deep freeze again with temps at night in the 30s.

That is pretty bad for Florida. It would feel decent here, depending on the wind.

I think the weather must be getting to me because all I want to do is sleep. I wonder if I’ll make it through this football game (Buffalo/Denver). While it is 42 degrees outside now, the wind is shaking the windows, and it is COLD.

That is what happens with Bob, he sleeps. Yes, our windows rattle and my joints are cold in my hands.

I know, it is winter, what can we expect, but on my days off I would love it to be nicer.

I'm sorry it has been such a day where you are. I don't care for wind at all. At least you had some sun. Here is around 40 each day lately. Sometimes we get a slight wind but not much or for long. We've had fog for three nights in a row. I enjoy it and stay up later than I should watching it grow.

I am doing well battling cold weather outside with the temperature at 50 degrees F. It is going colder with the temperature low being 32 degrees overnight.
