What speaks of Winter? A cold, rainy day, and this is exactly what we had yesterday. Guess what? I loved every minute of it....even when I had to go to the grocery store for a few items. I hopped out of my car and took off running (like a jack rabbit in a race) and I was only a teeny tiny wet as I entered the store.
This mornings temp!
I knew the cold weather would eventually get here. How long will it stay? I'm sure the Texas meteorologist do not even have a clue. By the end of the week the forecast calls for us being in the mid 60's.
Anyways, I've been looking for an electric blanket. I had to send our old one to the trash sometime back in the Spring. Can we talk about electric blankets for a minute? Somewhere along the way, they've become harder to find. I don't know if they are being phased out but I do know they are difficult to find.
I caved and bought one of the new heated mattress covers yesterday. And...Boy does this thing work. We climbed into a warm bed and by 11:15 last night, I had to turn it off. We were a little too warm. Winter is coming... I need to stay warm... and it seems that I have found the answer.
Of course, we do sleep with a ceiling fan as well as a box fan. It's the noise!! I love the noise coming from the box fan. Nothing like crawling into a warm comfy bed, with a buzzing fan running right beside you.
When I woke up this morning, I had an email from UT Southwestern Medical. (sent to me overnight) The message was letting us know that Sam has a 7:15 appointment this morning for his first IV transfusion. WELL. . . . This was the first message we had received of any kind about the appointment. WE live 2 hours away from the cancer center, so obviously we are not going to make it. Worrisome? Yes, but this too will work out.
