Wow, I can't believe how cold it is out.
When I got up at 5:30 to let the dogs out, I couldn't see the thermometer. I just knew it as cold from the breeze that came in the door. I turned on the t.v. to catch the weather, and that is when I knew it was cold. Minus 20 with the wind chill. Baby, that is cold.
Now that it is noon, and the sun is out it is still only like 8 degrees. With the wind it is still in the negative numbers.
I know we live in the north, but this is really not normal for this time of year. Just like all the snow we have gotten. Personally, I think that Mother nature is trying to tell us something. She is telling me to stay indoors till spring.
Actually, if you dress right for it, the cold isn't really all that bad. Layers of clothes is the key to keeping warm. In this low a temperature, any exposed skin is vulnerable to frost bite very quickly.
Off to the big city today. Have to get some staple products for the house. A roof rake being on the top of the list. The porch roof has about a foot of snow on it, and really should be cleaned off. Luckily, the house roof is at a good enough pitch, that we don't really have to worry about it.
