Yes, we are defiantly in a deep freeze this weekend. I hated to have to put Rusty out, he stands out there lifting his paws. I know they hurt. sad.. We had a little over 2" of snow last night. I was woken this morning by the noise of banging and scraping..my snow guys were out there busily taking care of the driveway, sidewalks and "porch"...thus the noise I heard.
As the day progressed, the temperatures plummeted, I think they are talking of wind chills of forty some below tonight. I don't even understand how cars can continue to work! I would fear going out in this..never knowing if you'd get stranded. I think that is old age speaking..smile..
I did get some laundry done today and made some 'Turkey and Noodle' soup. We had our South Bottoms Christmas potluck the other night. It was too cold for me to go out and I don't like to leave my SIL for too long. So, some of the people sent home some goodies. One lady sent me a whole pumpkin pie! It is soooo good, she is an amazing cook!! And another sent some turkey home to me. My friends brought it all over a couple days ago. I've been munching on the turkey...making sandwiches etc. So today, I thought why not make soup out of it!! It turned out amazing. Tasted really good on a cold winter's day..(actually, it's still fall..) but feels like winter!!How is your weather are you effected by this 'deep freeze' too??
Time for bed..have a nice SONday!
