Monday

... so I'll just whinge about the cold here. I'm in Sarasota, about an hour or so south of Tampa. Already turned my waterbed heater on Saturday because we're apparently getting your weather tonight. I'll have to bring the orchids in tonight. I'm not sure how "below 40" we'll really get.

What's really disgusting is that I used to think nothing of stepping out in an Iowa blizzard in socks and t-shirt to grab more firewood. Almost 40 years here and I'm officially a wuss. 🤪
