I Got My Heavy Robe Out Again.

It is freezing here. I dug out my heavy Stan Herman long robe I had put away plus I put heavy socks on. That robe was a gift years ago and it's wonderful. More comfy than layering regular clothes.

I don't know if my lilacs will survive this weather. They had some buds starting. There will be no sitting on the porch with coffee in the morning for awhile. You would freeze a body part off.

I am quite a sight. My socks are ones my sister got for my DH when he had his cancer surgery. Very heavy and toasty warm. Hair in a ponytail too. If I had hot chocolate mix I would make some. Hot tea will have to do.

DD and I are watching Air Disasters on the Smithsonian Channel.

Just a very odd day.

Me too. Stan Herman animal print robe is being worn right now. The wind makes it feel so cold.

Tomorrow I may have to get out my Bob Mackie floral print robe, it is pretty and keeps me warm.

@CrazyKittyLvr2 My husband had put our winter coats downstairs a week ago and I had to run and get them back up! We were running around last evening trying to cover everything. I had just planted several lilacs and I'm not sure they are going to be ok either. We even covered some of the tulips so we wouldn't lose all the blooms! I am holding off on any more planting until the weather finally takes a warmer turn for the good.

Today I am making cookies and going to try using my Ninja Foodi that I got yesterday! Hot chocolate sounds good too!

When May acts like this it REALLY makes me want to move back to California. Have a lovely, cozy day all!

I haven't put mine away yet as I'm always cold. Thought I would change my sheets back to spring/summer weight sheets but put my fleece ones back on. It's to get a bit warmer by the end of the week. @CrazyKittyLvr2 , did you get any snow where you are?

Where do all of you coldsters live?

I'm in the inland northwest. It's gorgeous here, bright sunshine, and, supposed to hit the mid 70's.

The Seattle/ Portland area, is even better, sunny and low 80's.

We better enjoyit, though. by Tuesday, the region is expecting rain, and in my area, possible thunderstorms..

Ahh Spring😊

@catter70 Thankfully no, even though last evening they said we could get 2 inches. It was just flurring some. It's just darn cold, windy w/sun, flurry, sun and then flurry again.

I'm in western Ma and very cold and windy here too. So.... I decided I wasn't leaving the house thus decided this would be a good day to do the wardrobe switch. Which I did. I left out a few sweatshirts and knit pants. And of course some heavy pj's. It has to change soon and I want to be ready lol... At least we didn' t get the snow.

Never put away my winter Stan Herman robe and wore it last night and will be using it again tonight. All my flowers that I stupidly bought last Saturday at a local nursery are now inside all over the windowsills since I haven't potted them yet. However, the vegetable plants I got from Roberta's I did put in big pots, too heavy to bring in. They sit by the wall on my deck covered by a sheet and a pillowcase. Hope they make it.

Spring, oh Spring, wherefore art thou Spring???????????????????

@SuhseK, I'm in eastern Pa and it was 31 degrees here at 5 a.m. with a wind chill in the upper 20's. At the moment we are having a snow shower.

SW PA here. Went into the 20's last night. Sat at my kitchen table this morning and watched the snow flurries. I'm over it now! Also brought out my winter Barefoot Dreams robe. Will need it the next few days. Happy Mother's Day to all!
