      Brrrr! It’s down right cold this morning. Ohhh boy! I told my mom back in the summer that I had a feeling we were going to have a bad winter this year and do believe I am right on the dots and t’s!
      I think the North East and part of the Southeast is going to see some nasty cold weather this year alot earlier than usual with many ice storms and snows!
      The weather pattern in North Carolina is certainly not what it normally is! Last year I was wearing shorts on Halloween and the year before that too!
      This year I am all bundled up in a blanket and furry pj’s. Brrrr!
      It’s an artic type of cold weather too! An artic air breeze!
      Going to build myself a fire this morning and get this heat going! I’m COLD! 😀

      I am not as cold as you. We have been 75 degrees plus here for a couple of weeks and not looking to get much colder anytime soon. I am definatly enjoying this weather I cannot believe that it is so nice here. It is perfect weather for me less symptoms when this temperature.. hope it stays like this for a long time ( crossing fingers). so sorry to hear how cold it is there.

      It got down to 29 degrees this morning. I was cold! 😀 Later in the day it warmed up and the weekend is supposed to be better. Much warmer weekend! Then they are talking about another cold front hitting us! I’m a window and door person and love fresh air. But these past two days I had that fireplace blazing! 😀

      It’s time for a little humor about the weather.

      INDIAN WINTER

      IT WAS ALREADY LATE FALL AND THE INDIANS ON A REMOTE RESERVATION IN SOUTH DAKOTA ASKED THEIR NEW CHIEF IF THE COMING WINTER WAS GOING TO BE COLD OR MILD?

      SINCE HE WAS A CHIEF IN A MODERN SOCIETY, HE HAD NEVER BEEN TAUGHT THE OLD SECRETS. WHEN HE LOOKED AT THE SKY HE COULDN’T TELL WHAT THE WINTER WAS GOING TO BE LIKE.

      NEVERTHELESS, TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE, HE TOLD HIS TRIBE THAT THE
      WINTER WAS INDEED GOING TO BE COLD AND THAT THE MEMBERS OF THE
      VILLAGE SHOULD COLLECT FIREWOOD TO BE PREPARED.

      BUT BEING A PRACTICAL LEADER, AFTER SEVERAL DAYS HE GOT AN IDEA. HE
      WENT TO THE PHONE BOOTH, CALLED THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AND ASKED, ”IS THE COMING WINTER GOING TO BE COLD?”

      ”IT LOOKS LIKE THIS WINTER IS GOING TO BE QUITE COLD,” THE
      METEOROLOGIST AT THE WEATHER SERVICE RESPONDED.!

      SO, THE CHIEF WENT BACK TO HIS PEOPLE AND TOLD THEM TO COLLECT EVEN MORE FIREWOOD IN ORDER TO BE PREPARED.

      A WEEK LATER, HE CALLED THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AGAIN. ”DOES IT STILL LOOK LIKE IT IS GOING TO BE A VERY COLD WINTER ?”

      ”YES,” THE MAN AT NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AGAIN REPLIED, ”IT’S GOING TO BE A VERY COLD WINTER.”

      THE CHIEF AGAIN WENT BACK TO HIS PEOPLE AND ORDERED THEM TO COLLECT EVERY SCRAP OF FIREWOOD THEY COULD FIND.

      TWO WEEKS LATER, THE CHIEF CALLED THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AGAIN. ”ARE YOU ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT THE WINTER IS GOING TO BE VERY COLD?”

      ”ABSOLUTELY,” THE MAN REPLIED. ”IT’S LOOKING MORE AND MORE LIKE IT IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THE COLDEST WINTERS WE’VE EVER SEEN.”

      ”HOW CAN YOU BE SO SURE?” THE CHIEF ASKED.

      THE WEATHERMAN REPLIED, ”THE INDIANS ARE COLLECTING FIREWOOD LIKE
      CRAZY.
