I'm going to have to surrender and put on the winter astronaut suit. I've been wearing the spring coat til now. It feels like once you haul out the winter coat, it's official and it's going to be around for months.
I've been alternating between hoodies and a windbreaker, depending on weather. Now that the temperature is more or less permanently below freezing, it'll be the jacket over a hoodie.

It has to get downright arctic before I'll consider a real coat.
I am not into Detroit cold kind of weather, but here when it snows, i am in sandals shorts and a tee shirt haha

I have shoveled my driveway in that very outfit. ( :

You don’t get used to frostbite, the affected area just becomes more sensitized.
The first thing after hoodie is gloves.

We haven’t had snow yet, and it’s still maple syruping weather here, cold nights above freezing days.

This made me laugh, because my love of heat had me bundled up in a hoodie under a wind-breaking coat, with a scarf and my over-ear headphones (which act like earmuffs to some degree) ... and that's with it being maybe high 50s/low 60s this morning.

I got to work and was peeling off layers, and realizing I'd never manage in a place with snow and freezing temps more than a day here and there. There just aren't enough layers to keep me warm. (I need to retire somewhere like Arizona - dry heat - but make sure the coldest winter temps are relatively high too.)

Snows coming!

Thanks for the reminder to test-start the snow blower :)
The leaves are still on the ground. We still have to use the mower at least once more to mow up the stragglers after we pick up the bulk. Then we swap out to the snow blower. Mowing the grass in a winter coat looks and feels real stupid. Sandals and snow? That's pure crazy! You must be going for the blue toe look.
Saturday cannot come soon enough. there's a convention going on next weekend, I am REALLY looking forward to going to in Roundrock. Meeting a BUNCH of friends there.

Um, sandals and lawn mower? That's pure crazy.
I want to keep my toes.

Also:
Just to be clear, before someone from Vermont jumps all over my stuff; maple syruping happens in the spring not the fall, but maple syruping “weather” is still frost at night warming after sunrise.

Sorry to hear that, seems like I'm constantly training new people who decide they dont like the job within the first week. On that note tho we are in a funk of hiring a new employee just to have an older one quite so we can never catch up to the amount of people we need.
Baked Potatoes for dinner, not so quick but easy to make.

We are going for Meatloaf, Mashed potatoes(need to go check muh potatoes to see how soft they are) and some sort of veg. I have not decided what that sort of veg is yet though.

My favorite is brussel sprouts, sliced in half, roasted in the oven with Olive Oil, Balsamic Vinegar and a little Parmesan.
Good evening!

I see we are having meatloaf for dinner? ;) Meatloaf Thursday...hmmm not sure how that sounds...
