Well, we made it through October with NO SNOW, which is apparently no small feat!
If only it would hold off another 3 weeks, then I’ll be in Orlando and won’t need to break down and buy a winter coat at W*lm*rt. I figure, if I can just last the 22 days or so before we leave for our Orlando-Toronto-Philadelphia-Toronto trek, then I can get a coat in either Toronto or Philadelphia for better selection. (And if in Philadelphia, then I can use play money USD to do it!)
As if playing chicken with the weather weren’t thrill-seeking enough, I’m also in a battle of wills against our thermostat. Notice that I said I’m engaged in the battle; I’m not convinced the thermostat really cares. But, it does taunt me by displaying exactly how many minutes (by the day and by the week) the furnace has been on. There’s something very satisfying about seeing it display 00:00, even if it means the indoor temperature has been set at 14 degrees in order to do it. I had to cave in today, though, because the drywall mudding needs greater-than-freezing temperatures in which to set. So, a cozy night lies ahead!
