Heat Wave
I just checked the weather, and it’s a balmy 10 degrees outside. (-7 with the windchill.) It’s a veritable heat wave!! I could not believe how cold it was yesterday. When I woke up, I had a hard time getting out of bed because it was cold even inside my apartment. Not that I find it particularly easy to get out of bed on a normal day, but that’s not the point. I turned up the thermostat quite a bit higher than I normally keep it, layered on sweats while I got breakfast and packed my lunch, but I was still FREEZING.
Then I turned on the news and figured out why. It was -19 outside, with a windchill of -40! FORTY BELOW ZERO. Gee, no wonder I couldn’t get warm. And you know, when your car sits outside in that kind of temperature, it really doesn’t want to start! Can I tell you how much I’m looking forward to my energy bill from the last several days?

I hope that the temps warm up for you and also that the high energy bill doesn’t upset your budget too much.

My electric bill has been the most ridiculous thing ever, I don’t even want to think about what it’s going to look like with the heat running all this week.

Shoot, I’m in denver and it has actually been a pretty mild winter. Knock on wood, as we will probably get a pretty bad storm soon
