Cold weather madness

The last couple of days have been cold (for my bit of the world) with a
bitingly cold, damp wind which makes it feel colder than it really is and
gets a body cold quickly and there's been rain, sleet & snow. As a result,
the cats have not been keen to go out in the garden at all. The result is
that they go stir-crazy inside. I currently have three demented felines
running around the ground floor.. zooming up the stairs... running around
the bedrooms.. back down the stairs... You get my drift. All have eyes wide
(eye wide in case of Waffles), whiskers out, tails erect, with much lashing
of tails, assorted meows, hisses & growls.

Can someone send some warmer weather please? My sanity depends on it ;-)

Cheers, helen s

I hardly dare tell you that the weather folk say it will be -5C tonight.
Oh, gosh, now I've told you! D*mn.

We had almost 70F (21+/-C) today. Opened the windows when I returned from
my luncheon (which was followed by a quick stop at the salon to get a trim
on the faying locks).. All *8* cats went bonkers jockying for winow time &
position. Then I opned up the back porch (What Weebs calls "da tiled
room"), which in all enclosed with windows, and they trotted out there for
inspections. I had been letting them back there since Friday of last week
(except at night, since it still gets into the 30-40's F), but I didn't
until after I returned today. They were bursting to get back there. Not
sure why, becuase in 10 minutes, they're snoozing back there, just as they
would in any other room in the house. Silly cats.

Weird thing: they're predicting snow tonight or tomorrow. And I have
Daffodils coming up in the yard!

Not I; it snowed today. It actually wasn't that cold, but consequently the
melted snow is running all over the place. Pretty miserable, actually.

I can only imagine 70F until about June, July or August. Lucky you. I
have snowdrops and crocuses out and daffodils in bud.
Kitty & BF are snuggled up in their beds next to the kitchen fire, they have
no intention of going out in the cold tonight. I have my electric blanket
on and I think it's time to go and see how warm it is.

They are preventing the greeblinz from coming in out of the cold and
building nests...

70F today?! And daffodils coming up! Oh, sure, rub it in!LOLOL

Can't help you. They're predicting -10 C here, and we have snow coming
down all the time.

Well, I don't know about you, but just a bit north of you, we got snow.
Not a lot. But it is snow. And I have on one of those little hard sole
shoe thingies with velcro that they put you in for stress fractures
and it has open toesies so I hate snow right now. Criminy, I hate cold
weather right now. But I have served half my time in it and only have
two weeks left to go. Only two weeks of cold toesies left to deal with.
I never dreamed four weeks could be so long. Remind me not to
actually break anything where they cast it for 6 or more weeks. I think
I would go nuts. At least I get to take this thing off to go to sleep.

Bridget - who thanks MMJ for reminding her she has to clean off the car
this morning so get going early!!

It was close to 80F yesterday here... lots of daffodils coming up and
the trees are beginning to leaf out. Anyday now the peaches will start
blooming.
