Officially fall

Hubby turned on all four furnaces. It is now officially fall.
I hate the heating bills. He likes to be warm, though.
Now is the time for soups and casseroles and warm yummy food.
Today I will get my covid 19 booster shot. I have pages of paperwork to fill out before I go.
I will take my student in to breakfast and then Mrs. D will stay with him while I go across the street. A nearby pharmacy is conducting a clinic for us.
I am taking burritos for my lunch, but I need to get some salsa to take as well.
I will see you later.

Our bathrooms have wall heaters, and that is nice.

My furnace is still off. I refuse to turn it on until after Hallowe'en.

@BarBaraPrz Yes, it is a courteous thing not to freeze your guests.

If it was up to me we would use very little heat.

@GardenGerty I put it on for today because my friend came to visit, but I'll be turning it off again after she leaves.

That sounds like a full day.
I agree about the food. It is the season for all of those lovely, hearty dishes.

@wilsongoddard I am feeling a bit better. My cold/sinus symptoms seem to be doing better.

You've a busy day. Good, getting your booster shot. Did you get your salsa? I usually get a $1 picante small jar, at Walgreens dollar aisle, but they've been out for 2 weeks now.

If I do not watch it,hubby has it on 70. I have run it clear down to 50 for the weekend, but I have been cooking a lot. That and laundry make the house warm.

My arm is sore, but I think that has to do with the person who gave it.
