You did, indeed! On the other side... use a house humidifier and plenty of skin lotion.

^I covered that. Kirkland brand lotion is perfect here. My house has a humidifier attached to the heater and I've been using it.

It's 26 degrees here. . The wind is howling giving us a "feels like" temp of 14. I froze my tail off just heading out to grab some lunch. Tomorrow's temps aren't much better. I think I need to hop in the trunk of Ray's car and head to Naples, visit Patty's Ricky in Cali, or stow away on a plane to the Caribbean. Some days I do need to be reminded as to why I haven't followed my three sisters who have moved south. I hate winter!

Yup, Both of those rims were last seasons write-offs.
I got lucky when I bought them the first time. all four were the same price as the two replacements.

Unusual warm weather here. Has been mid 70s the last three days, will continue into next week. I got my bike down and have been riding again. It's amazing how fast my legs turn to spaghetti with just two months off the bike. Have been walking instead but that doesn't cut it I guess.

single digits this morning and still brisk.
of course tomorrow warming and rain.
which will be good, I slid halfway from the driveway to my front door on the ice.
of course I was still in the car at the time which increased the intensity of the moment.
or a the immortal Mr Bob Eucker would say, just a bit outside.

Although it's been chilly, we have not had any bone-chilling temps lately. And very little of the white stuff. Mostly rain, unlike the Midwest and Northeast. Works for me.

So, a new weather experience for me today. Ice. I am not leaving the house and cancelled an MRI I was supposed to go to tomorrow night. Ice and snow are predicted through Saturday night.

I figured the roads will be super slippery. That's a good winter day, at 62.
