Stormy Weather

It’s cold outside and more is coming.

So I was thrilled to get out my Paper Whites ( a lovely gift from Juli ) and get them setup.  If you look real close you can see just the tiniest roots just as I planted them.

Less than 24 hours later….amazing. 

The temps are in the low 20’s here and the wind chill factor makes it about –10 right now…ugh.  Of course, I had to be outside taking care of the chickens and the neighbor’s cat….ha!  Stay warm!

 

At posting this morning it is 8 degrees with a strong wind blowing…I can’t imagine what it feels like out there!  So glad I got the girls all tucked into The Chicken Mansion with heat lamps and a backup heater.

I only wish it looked this warm out there….this was taken about a month ago.

  3. Oh, that is some kind of cold. This time of year I'm glad I live in Arizona, 61 and it's 8 a.m. Thanks for sharing. Stay warm.

  5. Burrrr! I just returned home from a long weekend in Vegas, 80 degrees. What a shock to step off the plane! Boy does that sunshine outside fool us. It's a balmy 32 with 35 to 55 mph winds! So staying inside for me and staying away from falling trees.!! So thankful I still have power and heat!

  7. Brr degrees. Love paper wights - every year I say I am going to force some and I don't, so I'll live vicariously through yours. Hope you and the girls stay warm.
