Deep Freeze 2010

My temperature gauge reads....2 DEGREES!!! I am up early to check on my pipes in the garage...the washer and dryer are out there. A word of advice...dont buy a house with the laundry room in the garage. I cant believe how cold it is. I dont remember anytime in my life that it has been this cold. There is still snow covering the ground since Christmas. The high today is suppose to be 10 degrees. I got off of work this morning around 3 and the temp sign read 10 degrees. My mom lives 2 hrs away in Missouri and her temp is -1. I covered all the

north windows with blankets to keep the north winds from blowing in. I have storm windows, but they arent helping. The blankets did make a difference. At least the sun is shining this morning. Will take advantage of the sun rays by raising the blinds on the south side of the house. I think I will make some blueberry muffins, spinach lasagne, and some au gratin potatoes. Baking should put some heat in the house. I disconnected the dryer vent from the outside to exhaust in the garage to heat it up. I am washing everything in site so I can use the dryer. I do have a lint trap on the end of the exhaust hose. Woohoo...it is 9:30 in the morning and we are up to 5 degrees. Saturday the high temp is suppose to be 16 with a low of -1. I think I need to dirty some clothes...hehe Sunday will be a heat wave...34 for a high. Might need to get out the shorts...
