    Good morning! Only 20 degrees this morning and no electricity. It went out sometime in the night and was still out when we went into town at 8:45 am. I needed some hot tea to warm up. It was back when we got home at 10:30 am. dr started a fire in the stove so it might warm up pretty soon. I'm going to go and bake something so that will help. Sun is shining and going to be in 50's today. Wind has stopped. Thought we'd be blowing up toward Jerry yesterday.

    YeeHaw! I'm ahead of Netty and Dooley and everybody else in wishing you a happy 12/12/12 Wednesday!
    Cold this morning, and I see the red glow from the heat lamp in the barn (chickens are toasty). Cat is curled up on the bed--I can wait to make the bed until she gets up around noon. This is Cheddar bread baking day so I'll have plenty of loaves to give for Christmas presents.
    Y'all have a nice day, and keep warm!

    Good Wednesday morning all. Currently -4°C and overcast. 12/12/12 is the last thing on my mind today ... I get to go pick up my daughter from school for Christmas break today ! :) We got the tree up last night so we are really in the Christmas Spirit today!! Got most of my shopping done and wrapped yesterday and even found my 'difficult' gift that is going to make a certain little girl very happy. Have a great day all :)

    Good afternoon all! Quite the symmetrical day we have today so hope it's an even day for you all. The weather is slightly uneven here though.

    Think i will wear elf outfit. Another customer wants us to put up X-Mas decoration. One house DH helps me clean. He was shocked how many boxes. I pack 3 bookcases and put away.So 100 boxes.Some she had forgot about.Got 2 boxes in Jeep to take to church. Hardest part to keep 2 newly adopted older cats from helping.

    Happy Wednesday morning and happy 12/12/12. I love number stuff!
    We had a few more hours of freezing temps overnight but will have another beautiful sunny day with temps getting to mid to upper 50s. A couple plants are showing damage, like one of the Gardenias.
    Tonight will probably get down to freezing again, but warming up to the upper 60s tomorrow. I have to remember to uncover the plants before I leave home in the morning or they might just suffocate.

    Good morning everyone, ooooh it's 12/12/12 I wonder if something will happen at 12:12PM Hmmmm there are many 12:12's I guess I will have to check my Mayan calendar. The temperatures make for a crisp day. Time to bring in the tree. :)

    Happy Thursday morning. Brrrr..... got down to the mid 20s overnight but expected to be in the 60s today. I uncovered the plants before leaving home this morning and everything looks good, even the Calla blooms! woohoo!!
    We'll be back to "normal" temps for awhile... 40-70F.

    Carolyn... there were two babies born in the Houston area at 12:12 yesterday too. Wonder if any of them weighed 12 lbs 12oz? :D

    Good Friday morning all. Currently 0°C and overcast. Lost my voice yesterday and so my daughter has banned me from talking ... says my scratchy voice is annoying :rolleyes: Told her I would stop talking AND doing all the work around here - including the cooking! Somehow my scratchy voice isn't too annoying anymore :D
    It's going to be one of those days ...

    Happy Friday morning. Nice and warm out this morning. Our temps will range from 50-70F and there's a slight chance of rain in the forecast.
    Today's plan after work is to stop by the grocery store and get all my ingredients for Christmas cookies and a cake Hubby wants.

    Happy Fri,peeps.Well it is another unseasonably warm Dec day here in Iowa. I did hear RAIN mentioned for tomorrow.
    Sure makes heating the house easy.Had to have window open all night in living room where wood stove is.

    I visited my plant buddy yesterday & we discussed my getting more Xeriscape plants.She gardened in Colorado for years so knows about dry weather gardening.
