I thought it was odd that I woke up this morning completely encased by dogs and cats on the bed. And I noticed, when I was finally able to free myself from them, that my toes were a wee bit cold. The sun just came up and I see frost on the lawn! And there's a respectable layer of ice on the windshields. It seems early to me.
I was just griping last week that I wish winter would hurry up and get here, just so my workload would ease up a bit. And this morning, I feel like I'd like just a few more weeks of summer. I haven't yet moved in my tender perennials; my kumquat tree, lemon verbena, the pinapple sage. Fortunately, the guys did move in my family heirloom jade plant on Friday; that one would be heartbreaking to loose. I guess I'd better get the rest moved in today. I hope I haven't killed them already.
I guess it's time to break out the bucket heaters (there goes the power bill). All my horse blankets are in getting cleaned and repaired, but I don't think we are close to needing them just yet. I hope...
Get ready... here comes old man winter!!!
