Last night it tried to get to the forecast of -17. Didn't quite make it. Lowest I saw on accuweather was -16. I'll wait for the paper tomorrow for the "official" temp last night. We have pulled in. Blankets over the doors and windows in the kitchen and front door. A fire going all day. Mom and Sarah slept in the TV room. Seems to be the warmest in the house if you close the door. I racked out in our bed with 3 blankets. NOT too bad. Reminded me of when I was a kid and slept in a room with 13 windows. It used to be a sun porch. The wind is awful. Everything is closed. Dave went in and was sent home after 1 hour. Must be 8-10 inches of blowing powdery snow.
We had to take Sarah out yesterday for a shot and when I got there they said we are closed. I remarked " not till after the shot as I had talked to them 1/2 hour earlier. WE got the shot.
Not going out today but will try tomorrow. We just aren't set up for this kind of cold. The furnace ran all night. Mom said to turn it up this morning and I said it can't reach the temperature I have it at, so turning it up really won't help.
Layers help.
Plenty of food.
It will be much better by Wednesday.
