Well with the old fahrenheit way down in the trenches, it has occurred to me that there may be a school delay tomorrow so no little kids will be standing in the dark and cold waiting for the bus. And if we get precipitation, schools may close. Ho ho ho – a little crew of elves to pick up all the clutter and clean rooms. and then, just maybe, we might have a movie afternoon with popcorn and treats.
Oh, yeah . . . the wind is pretty strong – making the “feels like” temperature -9?.
It is cold here . . . real cold. I reached the point where I put duct tape on one of the doors because until it got this cold and this windy I did not realize the constant use had undermined the insulation on the door jamb. Yes, it is Sydney’s door from the porch. He is not pleased. He wants to use THAT door.
However, the screen door is frozen shut . . . although that isn’t preventing cold from seeping through the recently discovered air leaks. It is too cold for a real fix . . . well, when a temporary duct taping will serve.
Oh, my. We have lost power. Now this is not good.
YEA! It turned out to a be a tripped circuit breaker for part of the house. WooHoo. But Sydney is still BooHoo-ing about his door.
Firewood brigade . . . YO.
