The temperature has dropped like crazy in the past couple of days. It's getting pretty close to freezing overnight, so I'm going to have to start bringing my tomato plants inside, or covering them :( I had to turn the furnace back on Monday morning, because I woke up and it was 16 degrees in the house :( Oh yeah that's 61 degrees F. This morning when I came to work it was 4 degrees outside, and 0 is freezing!
I just hate this time of year. I want to hold on to summer for just a little longer! The leaves have not started to change color yet, but that should be happening soon. Before long, they'll be bare and frosty. And then it'll be cold and snowy, and I won't ever see daylight! In the winter it's dark when I go to work and when I come home, and I don't have any windows in my part of the office building.
The only thing I'm looking forward to now is Christmas, which is my favorite time of year :) And NYC which is my little pre-Christmas present to myself lol. I'm excited to get into holiday mode again!

lol I wish I could enjoy fall but it only lasts for a couple of weeks here. In no time all the leaves are on the ground and either there's snow, or it's so cold that there SHOULD be snow. And then 6 months of winter ahead!

We're having great weather here in New Hampshire! (Although now that I've mentioned it, it's probably get all icky again). High 70's during the day and the 50's at night.

We had some rain here at home today and a little bit on the way home from Nebraska. It's what's left of Gustav! It's probably going to head your way, Janet, and cool things off a bit. Our nighttime temp for tonight is in the 60's and today it was around 70*.

it's going to be another hot one today, i did some more landscaping in my back yard last night i was hot, Micah was helping his mommy some but he liked the sprinkles better, it was so cute to watch him and my dogs with that sprinkler, my dog couldn't figure out what it was and was trying to bite the water coming out of it. i was laughing my ass off last night.... :D

It started raining last night Diana and continued on and off throughout the night. Rained a little on and off today too. I think it's suppose to continue this until tomorrow morning and then we are to have somewhat of a cool down...yay!!! I love the cool fall weather.
We needed the rain so bad...thank you God!!! I drive a lot of gravel roads (who'd a thought in 2008) anyway..the dust is sooooo bad and by the time I got home, my sinuses would ache a little bit. So thankful for the rain and the soon to come cool temps.
Well its hot and humid here expected to stay this way for another day.. High 90's .We are expecting rain and high winds on Sat...

Well it's official... we're now hitting freezing temperatures overnight :( Yesterday I plucked a few tomatos off my plants on the front deck, and I think I'll be bringing them inside every night now. It was 2 degrees C (36 F) when I left for work this morning, and the frost was just starting to melt off my car :( :( :(
