Brrrrrr!

It is cold outside today!

Really cold! Annie left for school half an hour ago (two hour delay) and I hated sending her out in -6 degrees. I started her car for her 20 minutes prior. I don't even know what the temperature was when Sergio left.

I work this evening and I dread getting into my car after work. I wish I could get someone to start it up and warm it for me! I drive an older Chevy pick up that has over 250,000 miles on it. It is a great vehicle. When Emily left for BSU in the fall, we sent her in my Tahoe rather than this. I was afraid it might decide to final conk out with her driving it. Today I wonder if it will be able to handle this cold weather.

I let the dogs out this morning. While Bandit & Riley took care of business, Dakota started his usual run about the yard. He quickly realized something was different. He lifted a front paw, then a back paw, then fell over. He just looked at Riley, as if he thought she'd rescue him. I called him back in. I am sure he will try to find a spot on the carpet when I am not watching.. Stinker. I'll try sending him back out in a moment.

I hope you all stay safe and warm in your homes as well. If you live in a warmer climate, remember us colder bloggers. It's not the snow that gets us down, it is the cold temperatures! They say it is going to be -10 here in Indy tonight! yikes!
