Oh man, I'm so jealous, I want a spa for Christmas.

Ah, yes. Those little electric heaters help so much in this cold spell. But you gotta watch where you plug them in..... I just blew out a fuse, or breaker thing cause I had a lamp, computer, electric fireplace and the heater all going at the same time. Now every outlet in the family room/kitchen does not work. I am cuddling with my doggies under a blanket ! Happy thanksgiving everyone!

I don't think it got much over 50 up here in the Verde Valley. With the wind it was reallllly cold today. There's even a teeny tiny bit of snow on the very top of Mingus Mtn.. It's forecast for snow down to 5,000 ft. tomorrow, I think. That'd be Jerome!

Wal Mart is starting their Black Friday shopping at 12:01 AM Fri.. That would be for toys, etc.. Electronics go on sale at 5 AM. I'll be there! I have never, in my entire life, been in a store on Black Friday so this should be a real experience! I'll be cashiering so it should be interesting to see what all they buy!

Do you know how to reset it? If not or for the benefit of someone else who may not, go outside around the front of your house and find the meter/breaker box. Open it and run your finger down along the rows of switches till you feel one that is not in line with the rest. It is the one that is tripped. It is in a halfway position between open and closed. Flip it off, then flip it back on again to reset.

I just wanted to say howdy from Wyoming. I can feel your pain. Wow, 50s in the forecast?


Well, we'll probably have 50s in our forecast too, sometime between now and June. Right now it's 3F and headed downhill fast. That's not a typo. 3. Three. And I've gotta post this quick before it's -3. Or -23.

Keep warm down there and hope for a frost-free Thanksgiving. *waves*

If only it would stay 50-65 degrees for the high everyday- I'd be loving it!
I love this weather. I love wearing skinny jeans and boots.
I've grown soooooo tired of the heat 8 months out of the year here.

It's nice for a change, but all year? No pool, no spring/fall nights on the patio, morning coffee outside, eating outdoors at restaurants, summer pool parties, water-skiing, boating, hiking in the mountains? By March I am ready for those 80s again.

Honestly, yes I would like this current weather all year.
In March of this year I was honestly already dreading the heat coming back when I saw it hit 75-80 degrees for the high of the day

Agree! Hate that weather. Makes the day unproductive.
