Negative Three Degrees - Dead Cold

I almost got rid of my pajamas in a fit of de-cluttering this last week. I'm always so hot in Santa Barbara, it seems like it never gets cold enough for PJs --- but...

Last night was one of the few nights in the year where I was actually pretty cold. So cold, in fact, that I had a dream about being cold.

I went to the hospital in my dream last night. I thought I had a really high fever because I had the chills. They took my temperature and it was negative 3 degrees.

"Well, it's not a fever," the doctor said in my dream, "but it's not good either."

When I woke up, my husband was on the other side of the bed with ALL of the blankets.

Poor you! Tell Oliver to get his own blankets! Or even better, tell him to buy you more piles of yarn so you can make more for yourself! ;)

I finally asked Binh this morning if we could start closing the windows at night, so I can definitely vouch for it being very cold last night.

I noticed a pile of stuff on your porch over the weekend and figured it was spring (winter) cleaning time in your house. Must have felt good. See you soon!

I know!

I got rid of something like 6 Hefty bags full of stuff to Goodwill.

And... I got rid of all my yarn scrap leftovers and I'm thinking... I need more yarn! The yarn closet is very, very, bare now. Well, okay, for me at least. ;o)
