Last night I was out visiting my husband's relative and did a bit of shopping later in the evening. There was a nip in the air then signalling winter. It was nice and warm inside the house, and comfortable in bed. This morning I woke up to a bleak, sunless,cold day. I was hoping that things would get better as the day forged ahead, but I guess this is how its gonna be today. I have piles of clothes to wash and this means that they have to be put in the dryer.. which I don't care for. I will wait until tomorrow then. The good news is the plants need watering once in two days only.. or maybe longer if the weather holds out. I am glad to have finished my shopping for the week so I don't have to go out in this weather. I am putting on so nice music so that I won't feel down with this depressing weather.

Our power is much cheaper after 9pm and before 7am so I did the laundry last night before I went to bed and hung it out this morning. It is all dry and folded again now so that is all good.

@sofssu Yes, we have what's called 'peak' rates. That costs the most. Then 'shoulder rates' and then 'low rates'. I always run the washing machine and dishwasher after 9pm or before 7am.

It sounds like we are having the same feeling about the weather. I woke up with gloomy clouds and soon after... it rained. I was not able to take my morning walk and can't do the scheduled laundry either. So I am just spending my day lazily, lotting and watching TV. I think I just have to take it easy the whole day. The weather makes me feel like doing nothing at all.

@sofssu our weather improved at noontime. I saw a little sunshine as the rain stops. It looks like your weather is really cold so it is really difficult to move and work as much as you want. I learned cold weather helps our brain to produce melatonin hormone so we tend be sleepy and sluggish.

@salonga Good for you.. the weather got worse here.. Sleepy and sluggish it is.. I have had my fourth cup of green tea for the day and I'm still sluggish.

I hate the sunless days, they seem so much more bleak and cold then any other days with sunshine in them.

@sofssu I hope that the clouds take a holiday there and let that sun shine brightly. We are having a most beautiful sunrise today. We had a hard frost, everything is still and there are very few clouds in the sky.

@crazyhorseladycx Its a labor of love true, but its not penny pinching, just throwing away those plants or letting them die is awful. Thankfully our plants live on for years.

@crazyhorseladycx That is a lot of work isn't it? Hauling in the plants. Hope your hibiscus survives the winter there.

@kevin1877uk I usually have very soft music on .. on days like the music is loud and peppy. I just had it for a little while.. I get a headache if I have loud music on.

It is still nice here, colder more like a fall weather. It keeps going up and down now. I am waiting for it to suddenly drop and snow before we are ready.

Today and the last few days have been warmer than average here, though at this time of year that is still only in the 50's. We are supposed to be more average tomorrow with highs only in the 40's. Still I can't complain, it's been a lot colder than that at this time of the year in previous years.

@sofssu Our weather has been unusual here much of this fall. We've had well above average temperatures, and then will be more average. Then we go back up again. It's been strange, but I will take it over well below average temperatures.

We have sun here but it's still very cold, so I have my little heater going. It's the one thing that helps me get through these brutal mornings!

A rainy day can be nice, if you feel like staying in and relaxing, but it can be very frustrating if you wanted to get out and do things outdoors.

I was planning to have an exercise this morning but when I woke up the skies were gloomy. Maybe later when the sun is up and there's single rain drop. highly unusual to be raining this month.
