It was -23C when I rolled out this morning.
Here is another thermometer. The top reading is our deep freeze. The bottom is the tempeature in the room at the back of the couch. It's all in Celcius, remember. Ignore the time stamp, I never bother to set them on my devices. So there we go, the outdoor temperature and the deep freeze were equal. The basement temperature was 1 degree C. I stuff the furnace and got it up to 3C. Our basement is like a big root cellar for most of the year. Yes it is insulated and there is wood burning furnace down there.
I just came indoors from unclogging the big bird feeder (ice) and refilling the small one. The chickadees seem to favor the smaller one and empty it fast.
We keep talking about going out and doing something today, but it's marching on in the afternoon and it doesn't appear to be happening. One of us stuffs the fire and plops back down, both bathrooms got cleaned up, the cats got cuddled. We aren't going any further than the basement wood room. haha. I just pulled the ingredients for a small pan of lasagna. I ate six figs and the chewing made my wonky tooth start screaming again. Appointment tomorrow 8 ish.
Yesterday we had Red River Cereal for breakfast. (Bob's Red Mill has a version called 8 Grain cereal). There was half a canning jar of pecans in the cupboard so I chopped up about half of that to put on our cereal. The cereal was good but it turned out the nuts were rancid, so we were spitting them out as we went along. YUCK! The last time I bought pecans the big bag was 14.99, yes, high enough, but now they are double that for the same size bag. I probably won't be buying them for awhile.
M. is phoning clients and setting up his service call schedule for tomorrow afternoon. I occasionally hear him giving pep talks to a friend trying to kick a stubborn addiction. He's a real cheer leader for support, this sweet guy. ❤
And that's my Sunday mistle for this week. Have a great day friends.
(I'm going to try have a nap but will probably snuggle in the bed with my cat and read more of Louise Penney's second book - now that I'm addicted)
