It got cold. I miss yesterday's 60° weather. Now we have to suffer through the arctic ravages until the next day in the 60s. Which should be a week from now.

I'm back, I'm home, and it's good.
Running water is a luxury.
Willburn Sooner: Only four more months of winter, and then it's mosquito season.
Heh - Milady told me she killed a skeeter in the kitchen yesterday.
Looks like I missed the morning thread by thismuch.
Morning, Glories!
What I like about the art thread lately is, here we are in the midst of winter, many of us (not me, amen) with sub-zero temperatures and snow, and the art gives us a wonderful escape to warmer days
Last week, winds were out of the South and we had a day when the high temperature was 60.

Morning, Glorious fellow offspring of the Almighty!
In before the book thread!
Ah! Just started snowing here in NE OK. Big, fat flakes, too. Pretty. So far.

Anyone thought the weasel was doing something *other* than attacking the woodpecker? Huh. I just assumed....

Sun is out somewhere, you say?
I just keep readin', readin', readin' those comments, but I can't seem to get to the end. So, appropo of nothin'...
Morning, Glories.
I guess I shouldn't complain about our 38° overcast calling for rain. I'd rather it be colder and snow, or failing that, cold but sunshiney. Winter rains are sad.
