Staying Warmish


We're certainly enjoying a cold spell right now...if that's what you do for enjoyment. Here's a picture of my thermometer last night when I got home. It isn't accurate because I can't quite get the probe to go outside....instead this is a reading of the temp between the windows...still cold...this morning it read 5.6 and when I got to work 40 miles south of home the marquis read -9. There must be some kind of algorithym to figure out the real temperature at home, but I know by the squeaking of the snow underfoot and instant freeze of the nose......Sarah and Hannah - I hope you're soaking up that Florida sun.
I know I haven't posted in a while....I've sort of gone into hybernation I guess. There's a box of "winter scene" (cookies that have a chocolate top with different winter scenes pressed into them) cookies that my aunt Charlotte sent for my birthday. Although I'm really trying to lose weight, my calculations tell me that by the time the box is empty it'll be Spring. If the loosing weight goal remains true I should start inviting people over to eat them for me and just wait for an early Spring. Sarah would call this "Louise logic." Later on this Winter I'll give updates on how many cookies are left....

If it is any consolation... it is kinda cold down here. It was 51 yesterday. It has been overcast and windy.

Glad to see you back on line. And yes I will help you eat the cookies..... in spirit.
