It was down to 8* this morning and is now up to 28*, sun is shinning and it's beautiful outside. suppose to be in the 30's this week which will be nice.

hubby has had a cold for the past couple days, congestion sneezing, coughing and now i feel like i am catching it, so have started takeing meds for it, hope i caught it in time. Was suppose to take mom out today but just didn't feel up to it and don't want to drag this to her. She is getting bored staying in but been much to cold for her to get out except when she has to.

It is really cold here today also. It was 30 this morning - REALLY cold for us. Now, at 2:30 PM it is 34 - it's supposed to be up to 48 today - it's gonna have to hurry! It's cloudy too, so it feels very COLD!

It is just nasty here. Snow has almost all melted. Eveything is just an ugly, muddy mess and more bad weather forecasted for the weekend. I am so ready for spring!

It has rained here for two days straight! And it's COLD too! It is supposed to clear off tomorrow and have sunshine for the weekend. IT BETTER!

It is really sunny up here today. I heard about lots of snow down near New Jersey, Washington, and so on for today.

Are you snowed in Gina? Becky, how about you? Anyone else?

It's already the first week in February.....Spring should start in 6 - 8 weeks for most of you. My spring may be a bit later. I was watching somebody on TV showing how to begin spring flowers inside now. It looked like a really nice thing to do, especially when you have cabin fever from being inside during the winter.
I think I should wait a few more weeks though. We have to thaw out first and then I can put plants outside.

Somebody was telling me about patio tomato plants. Anybody know anything about them?

I plant tomatoes in little planters on my deck every year. I think this year I may look at other veggies to grow too... as long as they don't need to go too deep. Summer starts pretty late here so my tomatoes aren't usually ready until September. I might plant a little earlier this year and just make sure to keep them inside in the evenings and overnight when it gets frosty.

And on that note, it's still freezing here! Although, not as cold as it has been. I didn't plug in my car last night and it started up this morning with no problem. In the next couple of weeks it's supposed to get to around the freezing point, so above normal for this time of year. But, I see that Mazatlan, Mexico is sitting around the 28 degree mark (82 F) lately, so that will be a nice break I'm counting down... 13 more days!
