Because a defroster (and windshield wipers) are kind of important... |
Yesterday I checked the forecast when we woke up and saw a predicted high of 11 and a low of 5 with a current temperature of -4 degrees. Brrrrr. The temperature made its way above zero some time in the afternoon. Barely.
So we've been home bound, with only Paul heading out into the cold for school (and even he decided to forego his normal morning bike ride to school and took the car). In fact, it was so cold that after school he took the car to the mechanic to get the defroster fan fixed, because our car hasn't had a working fan in the front since we bought it (sometimes, in the beginning, it would turn itself on and off, and the fan in the very, very back works) and while we struggled through 90 degrees and 1000% humidity (only a slight exaggeration) in Florida without an air conditioner, long trips through the ice convinced us that a defroster might be a handy thing to have in a car in Michigan.

I was also pretty excited that the cost of the repairs was roughly half what we'd been quoted in Massachusetts. We'd had a feeling it would work out that way since the cost of living is significantly less here, but it was still a relief to hear!
Today we're looking at a relatively warm day with a high of 17. That's downright balmy. I might not have to wear my snuggie... I have to admit though, I'm still smitten with the seasons!
Now for a few pictures from the past few days:

Patrick being cuddled again... |
Patrick looks rather pleased with himself in that last shot. It's nice to see a family of siblings so close.
ReplyDeleteI like your blog redesign! I would have mentioned it yesterday but I didn't feel like it was quite right for your post on abortion :P
