This is what the north side thermometer read on Wednesday morning at 5:00AM. I got my post up and the fires really going; the masonry heater was reading 185F and it was barely 70F in the living room. The forecast was for sun which would help warm the house.
At 7AM I called the dental surgeon’s office and spent ½ hour on hold. But because (I think) I was a prior patient (from 2017!) I secured an appointment for February 26. They said they were booking in July! I got the kitchen cleaned up and at 8AM I called to get the temporary fix done on the tooth. I couldn’t get in until late afternoon on Thursday. This would cut my helper friend’s time pretty short, but it couldn’t be helped.
Next I spent time on the phone trying to find a ride for Thursday and everyone had plans for the afternoon. So I got ready and went to exercise class, after pulling out my sheepskin mittens, hoping the Senior van would be available. It was, so that’s finished. And so was I!
Between the cold, the class, and the stress of it all, I had absolutely no ambition or energy to do anything besides keeping both the stoves going.
So I took a page from this one’s book and had a nap early afternoon myself.
Eating has been interesting and not particularly nutritious. I’ll be glad if I can eat normally again Thursday night. The cold is forecast to continue until Monday. We are going through some wood!
Thursday I hope to finish the tree before my helper arrives at noon. We have house plants to water, wood to bring in, Tetris to play getting the boxes back in the store room, and I have to wash the Christmas linens and get them put away. Then off to the dentist’s.
It actually looks like I love the warm weather also
The cold weather has been quite drastic over there. Even the beach in Florida was all white!
I hope the cold vortex would lose its strength soon. Warm sunshine would cheer everyone up! A good book and a good nap would do wonders too!
I’m happy to see you have a nap
You actually deserve it
You got a similar cold snap, we dropped down to 7°F and windchill at - 14°F. I had to drop off a package at UPS and my gosh it was such a sharp cold on the skin. I think we may get a little breather this week. Stay warm and good luck at the dentist. I just had to repair a cracked tooth last week, ugh!
Oh, geez, it's the time of cracked teeth! No respite from cold here until Monday.
The dentist should try fix everything as soon as possible so you can start eating normally.

I can’t wait for you to eat normally
Food is good and we have to eat normally to boost our health
I hope the temperature improves as the sun rises, I wish you well. The cat is sleeping very well.
You know i was talking to my best mate the other day and she didn't know what Tetris was? Crazy. Hope you get your tooth sorted. And remember rest is a job too x
Sending you warm thoughts and wishing for your tooth to get better soon!

July normal booking is absolute madness
