    It's been in the low 40's here all day with lots of clouds. Rain is in the forecast but it hasn't showed up yet. We were out and about and I wore a fleece lined jacket but not my winter coat. I've put my short sleeve shirts away and filled my dresser with long sleeve shirts. dooley

    Good Sunday morning all. Currently 0°C and overcast. I woke up to a nice carpet of snow on the ground this morning!
    Took the dog for a long walk in the snow and he was wired! At least he got to burn off some energy.
    Looks like inside chores today.
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Tuesday morning all. Currently 0°C and clear.
    Snow has all melted and we are expecting a good day today with a high of 10°C expected.
    Today I'm finishing off a friends garden, and getting the snow tires put on my car.
    Have a great day all :)

    Morning all. Temps climbing into the 80s again for a couple of days, a thunderstorm moves through on Wednesday then Autumn temps will return after that. Many years ago we had a new 'non-leaky' roof put on in early Spring ....the rains stopped until October that year. This past Friday we had additional insulation blown into the attic....wanna bet on what the coming winter will be like? Oh, well, it will at least keep the electricity bills down if not the gas bill.

    Good Wednesday morning all. Currently 6°C and pouring rain.
    A busy day yesterday finishing up a clients gardens, getting my snow tires installed and then skating with my daughter.
    With today's pouring rain , it looks like an inside chores kind of day.
    Toni - I just bought 4 new snow tires so you can guarantee it will be a snowless winter here!
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Thursday morning all. Currently 5°C and overcast. Weatherman says we are getting rain again later today.
    Off to de-decorate at work so the girls can start putting up Christmas next week! I'll be giving the pumpkins and gourds to the wildlife that likes to hang out at the compost heap, but the squash goes to the kitchen (and maybe a few to my kitchen too!) for some culinary delights.
    After that some grocery shopping and picking up my sons snow tires.
    Have a great day all :)

    I bet that's entertaining Netty getting ready for Christmas..i stopped putting a tree up last year, sent two Christmas trees besides decorations to the charity shop by we but I always put a decorative wreath on the front door.

    Good Friday morning all. Currently 5°C and raining. It must have rained all night as there are huge puddles and the sump pump has started.
    I'm glad all the trees are getting a good watering before winter sets in.
    Indoor chores today.
    Have a great day all :)

    Too chilly and too dewy this Friday morning to do much outside except feed the hens, clean the coop, and unload the feed I got yesterday.
    Instead, I spent a happy morning in the kitchen. I made a batch of cranberry chutney, carved up the rest of the ham we had for dinner last night, made some ham salad from the small carvings, and sharpened my knives (holidays coming which require a lot of cutting and chopping!).

    Cold here this morning. Only 30 degrees when we went outside. Will warm up to about 40 degrees this afternoon. Need to go out in awhile. I have a long sleeve t-shirt, a sweatshirt and will wear a winter jacket, too. It's November now so there won't be too many warm days now until spring. Now that I wrote that maybe it will warm up some tomorrow. It is coming up on baking season and that will help warm things up inside and have a nice aroma, too. dooley

    Like here! :) We already saw snow last week, but now it’s getting warmer. This is a comfortable temperature for flowering Christmas cacti. :)
