Today was a fairly typical Sunday. The Beast left for his afternoon church meeting and informed me that he had been put in charge of the *Welcoming Committee*. That consists of himself and two of the women in his church. Their duty is to take the speaker of the day out to lunch after the services. Oh well. As long as he is happy and out of my hair.
While he was gone, I noticed the scent sprayer I have in my computer room was not flashing it's light, which means the batteries need changing. So I changed those and then noticed that the spray was gone. Having no refills in the house that I could find, I took a deep breath and got dressed. I set off for Walmart.
It took me a while to find the scent I wanted (lavender chamomile) but finally found a two pack pushed to the rear of the shelf. I think it's popular...LOL. I then decided, due to the cold I was feeling, to buy myself a pair of gloves. I found a nice lined leather pair and tried them on. They fit nicely so I added them to my cart. Then I bought some tortilla chips, some french fried onions (I want to make a green bean casserole) and two boxes of chocolate cherries for the Beast. They are his favorites. I went home and, after putting things away, ate my chicken wings I had grabbed at the last minute. I love those things and, since the Beast was out eating, I figured I would indulge myself. Figures he would have a fit about it when he came home and checked on our account. I get so tired of his spending what he wants when he wants to and acting like I am extravagant. I seldom go to the store these days.
Anyway, about our weird weather.... Our high today during the day was 45 degrees. It was also raining almost all day long. I had a hard time with Baron who totally refused to go out even though he kept indicating he needed to. He actually waited all damn day long and finally went out just before bedtime. What a woose that dog is.
So it gets dark and I notice that our temperature is going UP. WTH??? It went all the way up to 56 degrees! I was awestruck that such a thing could happen. It's 5:20am and the temperature is 50 degrees right now. However, we have severe warnings for tonight. Mixed ice and snow warnings and a low in the teens. This is really and truly strange weather. If it's global warming causing it, why does it seem like we are nearing another ice age scenario? Or is it just me?
It snowed by Bratfink's and I suspect the same wave of weather that she experienced is what is going to cause our weather tonight. Yikes! I'm glad I bought my gloves although I have no intention of going out...trust me on that! But...just in case I must....I have them in my purse. LOL!
Love you all. Keep warm. Drive carefully. Beware of black ice! ***Hugs***
