Staying Home / myLot

It is very cold out right now. Mine says 13 F. Too cold. So happy to stay inside where it's warm. It looks like they changed the forecast a little bit. We will maybe get close to the freezing mark tomorrow. That will be a heatwave. The hot water line froze last night. We hadn't had extended cold like this for a few years and forgot it does that. Have a heater running now. Hope it thaws soon. It will just be a normal day here. I will walk and do light cleaning. Let the dogs in and out a lot. Water the chickens again this afternoon. And try to stay warm. Hope you have a good day.

Frozen pipes and power outages are the two things I worry about most in winter. Hope you stay warm and have a good day. The only thing I have going on today is the dog groomer is coming this afternoon.

We're supposed to reach the mid-40s today and the snow is almost all gone.

The forecast shows we'll be in for another cold spell starting in a few days.

I'm sick of Winter and cold! I laid out ground beef/ground pork and am planning on making some type of pasta with the ground meats tonight. I'll let Pretty choose what type of pasta I make. We need to go pick up the rest of the prescriptions the pharmacy didn't have ready last week. They claim they're ready. If they don't have them ready this time, I'll stand at the counter and disrup...

I mean, I'll sit quietly on the bench by the pharmacy and see if they'll hurry up and get them ready.

Hope you have a good day.

@wolfgirl569 We are warmer today than yesterday. I'll be back outside doing chicken water in a bit. Duke is enjoying the sunshine, as well at the cats and kittens.

I remember the winters of frozen water in Latvia those kinds of problems and others was the reason I sold that house, I could not live there along and the last winter I was there in the minuses busted the main water pipe and until I sold the house and moved I had no water in that house,

Our hot water line is what freezes. For some reason someone ran it right against the back basement wall

I am just now watching local news/weather. We had a tiny warm up for about 2 hours today, but not much melted. Tomorrow more will melt as it will be a lot warmer for a time, but we are supposed to get ''freezing fog'' which is really hard to drive in. Then we go back to deep freeze. Monday morning AM, temperature minus 10. Frozen pipes are just the worst. I hope you can get it thawed out soon.

@wolfgirl569 I'm glad you got them thawed. No one wants or needs frozen pipes.
