KathieB Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Hope John's trip is uneventful. This isn't a day to travel without a very good reason. Not that a trip to the craft stores isn't usually a good reason, maybe just not today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacey6163 Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 I talked to him a little bit ago , and he's getting ready to head back . He still can't believe I'd pass on a shopping trip & asked if I'm feeling ok , lol. But he got his surgery scheduled , the main reason for the trip , sent him to the store to get the last couple of things for tomorrows feast. I'll get to the craft stores soon . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelenV Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 As I've been reading this I have to admit I've had to employ my imagination as we don't get snow here at all - there are parts of NZ that do but not where we are, we don't get flooding or major storms either (well we think some of our storms are bad but reality is in comparison they're not). We are entering summer and if the weekend was anything to go by it's gonna be a hot one, I love the dry hot days but sadly at the moment the humidity is really high, though this should ease as it's raining today and should be for the next couple of days - I'm hoping it gets heavier as the humidity is still high. I hope you all stay safe and that it's a mild winter for you all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

me-barbie Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 the storm hammering the eastern US is also hammering Eastern Canada. Only it is impacting the work week, not a key holiday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grazhina Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 The storm was pretty much a non event here in Maine. it was just a gloomy rainy day with a high of 58. Cold temperatures rolling in tonight and 2 cold days to follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxxie2 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Its gorgeous out!!! The day starts out at around 10 degrees, give or take a few one way or the other and then the hot sun comes out and its in the 60's. I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalesq Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 It's pretty here in Northern California. We are suppose to have a high today of 68 and it will be in the low 30s tonight. Next week we are in for a cold snap. Time to finish harvesting the last of our garden...it's going to be in the low to mid 20s which means freezing. Better go pick the last of the tomatoes :Xmas: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 It's gloriously sunny out, but our heat still kicks on from time to time. I just put two baquettes in the oven to bake; whole wheat bread tomorrow; the grocery store was out of DH's favorite rye bread, so I'm making our favorite scratch bread recipe I brought back from Hawaii.

me-barbie Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Its been cloudy and mild the last few days (-6 to +2). So that meanx a dump of snow may be on the way. Certianly Alberta and Saskatchewan and parts of Manitoba have gotten dumped on, but thus far we in Dauphin have not. South of here and north, but not us, lol.

Roxxie2 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Well here comes another storm......I can feel it because I have a headache! It is 10 at night and 40 in the day. I can't figure out what to wear half the time. I start with 4 layers and peel them off as the day warms up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
me-barbie Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Roxxie, today I needed to add layers! The snow again missed us, but we are getting the wrap-around cold and wind. When I left the house, it was nice, -6 no wind. When I left work, it was -9, windchill -17! And of course I wore a skirt.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 We have a string of mid-70s days coming up. :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdlnpeabody Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 It was partly cloudy and 72 today. It's in the mid 60's now (8:45 p.m.) with highs around 80 for the rest of the week. I'm not complaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxxie2 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Barbara, have you ever tried the Cuddle Duds shirts? They are VERY soft, light, and amazing at keeping your warm. I wear them under my fleece as my first layer. Fleece over that and at night another fleece over that! I also have a nice heated throw I use while watching tv! Last winter we had it down to -20 every morning for two weeks! Our pipes froze and my car wouldn't start! Don't you just love winter?

havanaholly Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Before Sports Authority bought them out Oshman's used to carry Pepperskins light knit cotton two piece longjohns, men's and ladies', and I went berserk. I don't "do" Winter. After that godawful winter storm in December 1978 I made a deal with God that if He'd get us back to Florida I'd never complain about how hot it got in the summer; the following summer we were in Jacksonville, FL, and I have never complained about the heat, no matter how hot it gets.

Dalesq Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Temperature is dropping here. That freezing snap is supposed to start tonight. Brrrr....

grazhina Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Lately our daytime weather has been going back & forth between temps in the low 30's and upper 40's with rain. They say it'll be 43 and sunny tomorrow - we'll have to just wait and see how it turns out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanaholly Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Woke up to gloomy skies, fog and lots of water droplets on each louvre of all our Bahama shutters this AM. Obversely, the temp was mild when I went out to see that over half the roof is on the shop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
me-barbie Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Snowing lightly. We are again being missed by the big storm. But holy cats. -18, windchill -30. Glad I plugged the car in when I got to work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
