It was not this cold
When I turned in
I think the heat is off
A house of varied body temps
The bill payer always wins
Leaving the rest of us
Shivering in our socks
I actually miss Florida
At least for the lack of chill
Waking up
To frost upon the skin
And clacking teeth
Because she stole the covers
Is no way to start the day
I wish to hide in warmth
Curled up until I thaw
Did I just see my breath?
The toilet is cold
And my toes are blue
Please let me stay in bed
Until the heat returns





I feel it to bro…

I’m with you on this brisk fall morning. Except that I’m the bill payer and hate it so I keep it cool in the house.

The heat is timed to go off while everyone is asleep, which is a great money saver. Unfortunately, it keeps leading to some of us waking up shivering. I can’t tell if I’m exhausted or just cold.

We actually had our first cool night last night. It was a chilling 62 degrees. I had to put my fuzzy slippers on this morning and getting out from under the covers was hard. The a/c is still on and it is already up to 70 outside, so it looks like it is going to be a lovely weekend. That is why I tell people November and April are the two months to come to FL. The rest sucks.

I forget that 60’s are chilly down there. Think we had the 50’s and a slight dip into the 40’s here. Going to be a cold week too and slight rain on Halloween. Little guy is going to have layers under his Thomas costume.

That sound bone chilling to me, when it is cold and damp. Bless his heart, keep him warm and dry.

The first trick is getting him out the door. Last year, he fought us until kids showed up for candy. One look at that and he ran for his costume.

I can most definitely relate, there. I can’t even stand looking out the window, here. Because all I’ll see is snow.

We’re still at the morning frost stage. Not looking forward to snow.

Hoping to. Waiting for the room with the exercise bike to heat up before I get that part of my day done.
