My tauntauns are safely in their pens. We're set to hunker down for 48 hours. Which we were going to do anyway. Lazy. No freezing before we reach the first marker here.

Ironically our “Ice and Snow” festival had to postpone to Sunday. Ditto. Hunkering down. Opening door only to potty the dogs at warp speed.

Ice and snow festival in Keene?

Yup. A few years ago they had to cancel something because they had too much snow. For an event that required (wait for it)...snow.

Idiotically me I didn’t even think of this as an issue and planned to walk through Sunday to see what was left up when I get to the area for a ski week.

Thank you for this! (Rescheduling and having me own up to my duhhh moment)

I’m going to spend the weekend deep cleaning my apartment because I’m not leaving it for anything.

Same. Second floor apartment, natural gas heat with a single register in the largest room.

First floor unit keeps our pipes from freezing.

Gotta kinda layer up to take a poop though, so that’s a small downside.

Working on a song inspired by the pre-dawn howling wind.

I just got back from walking around outside. 1.75 miles, 29 minutes, wind chill -10. Skin temperature started at 80 degrees and dropped to 60.8 degrees. My toes were starting to get numb but the rest of my body was fine. My core was probably too warm as I was a bit overdressed. I want to go out at -20 and -30 just to see what it feels like. I'll have to use a flashlight as it will be dark when it gets to -30.

My daughter told me that the heat index where she is right now is 99. That's a bit warm for me.

I'm going out for a walk this morning. It might be a short walk. We'll see. I have balaclavas and a ski mask for cold, windy weather.

My teen, who won't take off their winter coat inside all season because they're too sensitive to the cold, is ticked at me for not letting them walk to the corner store at sunset. I kinda want to shove them outside for half an hour tomorrow to prove my point.

I'll be at work... Nope. Not a first responder or even other essential type worker. I'm a Chef. I can't imagine how many people are going to be coming into a restaurant. Moved up from the south last year and this is pretty insane to me.

It IS insane even to those of us idiots who refuse to move to warmer climates who were born here.
