As I mentioned yesterday, it's cold outside.
After venturing out into the cold, to buy groceries and supper, my mother and I ate and then huddled under a mountain of covers in her bed and watched youtube videos on a computer propped up on my lap. The dog alternated between being between us, on one of us, and at the end of the bed. And then we settled into for a long winters.... Well not nap, youtube watching.
Old shows like "Hetty Waithrope Investigates" and "Rosemary and Thyme" filled out evening. It was warm, cozy, and entertaining. The wind blew the snow around outside, but inside we were warm, under several blankets and sometimes a dog.
Those are shows that we haven't watched in years, and when we first started watching them, I wasn't sure that we'd enjoy them again, but we did. The last time I watched "Rosemary and Thyme" I was skinny like Rosemary, but this time I was fat like Thyme, which was kinda strange to realize. It's also strange to realize that although I remembered the stone going through the window, I remembered it as a brick, and I didn't remember much else.
And so I'm sure we will do that again, sometime, when we just can't seem to get the temperature inside to warm up enough to be tolerable. It's not that we don't have a good furnace, it's that sometimes, it just gets so cold that the furnace can't keep up, because the outside temperature plummets so much in such a short time.
And well now we've figured out how to warm up, and be entertained.
The furnace has now caught up, and the house is a liveable temperature, and we are settling in to go to bed soon.
So good night, although by the time you read this it will be moving, so good morning.
