Wondering how much this will increase the electric bills.

1. Are you getting snow?

Hope you're staying warm & toasty!

Here in the midwest, we just had our first hard freeze. Even some 70s last week. It was pretty doggone good for mid-November.

2. We got 2 or 3 inches of snow. Hard to tell for sure 'cause I wasn't going out to check it.

I was out yesterday in a tank-top without a coat. Typical New York weather. Hot one day, cold the next. Oh, and (it feels like we only get) two days of Spring weather.

Are you ready for Winter this year?

3. Am I ready? Not on your life!

Seriously dreading the next few months.

4. We need a southern retreat for the winter.

Free to DUers.

6. Meet ya there!

5. Don't know about electric bills; mine are moderate.

Glad my 'dish' is on the ground so I don't have to climb, if snow interferes! Had one such experience last year.

7. I'm a news junkie. Morning without network news seems a bit empty.

I do record quite a bit so I had things to watch just no current up to date news.

9. I am saving on electricity by boycotting the TV news shows.

You know, after two weeks without their endless blathering in the background, I have been enjoying the quiet. I always wondered how some DUers could get along without a TV. It's not so bad!

I have talked to so many people lately who say they no longer watch those channels. I hope we hurt them in their pocketbooks for what they did during the campaigns.

8. Related story

I had one of those A frame log houses, in the thick woods, in Western Washington.
One huge window, but faced north, so between the constant clouds, dense trees, it was gloomy.
Did not help that the inside was brown logs.

So I had skylight put on, it made a major difference in needed light.

Until it snowed.
