Baby It's Cold Inside
The hideous stagnant air alert thingy has been lifted. FINALLY. We had a glorious wind yesterday, and only stupidity kept me from opening the windows. Today, however, they are all flung wide. Glorious breezes are blowing through the whole house and taking away the two weeks' worth of indoor air. (I wasn't about to exchange stale indoor air for stale outdoor air while the pollution levels were rising outside.) The cats love it. They can't decide which window to sit in.
According to Dave, and the National Weather Service, there is now a heavy snow warning (3-5 inches) for today. I infinitely prefer snow to bad air. I'm not sure how the roses feel about it. (I should have got out in the garden yesterday and cleared some things up. Everyone in the city but me was raking leaves.)
Speaking of Dave, he made a FANTASTIC dinner last night. A lovely little tenderloin roast coated with garlic and horseradish. Sooooooo wonderful, and small enough that I don't think there were any leftovers. Yummy broccoli with a cheese sauce that he said was fabulous, baked potatoes and crescent rolls. For dessert, apple pie with real whipped cream. Yummy, yummy dinner.
Then, of course, it being Thanksgiving, we watched A Christmas Story. We had to. It's tradition. And it is no less funny for my having seen it ten or twelve times than it was the first time I saw it. I love that movie.
I've got to go shut the windows and turn the furnace back on. My clock/thermometer says it's 61 degrees under my desk lamp. Brrrrrrrrrrrrr!
