The forecast is all over the chart for next week. We are to warm back up to a delightful 66°F, but with it comes thunderstorms and wind. We just can't win this time of year.
I do love the sunshine. We got a glimpse of it yesterday, but it hopefully, we'll see more of it today.
Happy Sunday! I hope you all get some rest and R & R today.
Up and Down Weather © Feb 2024 by Kristina at Pioneer Woman at Heart
Winter arrived all at once, with rain, snow, high wind (high wind warnings), flood warnings, and now freezing temperatures. We woke up to 3°F with a wind chill of -18°F.
All is well, other than both of us have been best friends with biofreeze. I took a fall in a parking lot. It was the only patch of ice that wasn't salted. Go figure. I was stepping out of the truck and wooosh, down I went. I caught myself with my forearm (on the foot area of the truck) and wailed myself back up, but with a sore bum, neck and arm. Not to mention bruises. Go figure, we are out of comfrey poultices in the freezer too.
Has anyone made a poultice with dehydrated comfrey? I'm wondering if it would work too.
Either way, I'm digging out my spikes to put on my muck boots today. We'll be dealing with sub-zero temperatures for a while. At least the beautiful sun is shining for us today. For now anyway.
I also spent a few days under the weather, which slowed me down, but I'm slowly regaining energy. Nothing like this weather to throw your inner health off. It put me behind in painting again, but I should be back to that task next week.
I finished my winter scarf in time for this weather, but will be starting on a new hat, as I gave my last one to one of the our daughters. It's now like I'm out of yarn ha ha! I'll try and get a photo of the scarf to share with you all.
Thank goodness for my blog, as I have lost my pattern for the hat pattern I wanted to make. I found the pattern online again, but cannot remember what hook size I used. I sure hope I guess correctly. I am sure I did not use a "J" hook as the online pattern states.
