Thursday: ☀️🥵 | Friday: 🎃🥶 | The seasonal whiplash is next level

Well, we went from breaking records with the temperatures yesterday to being back in a more typical October weather pattern today.
It was pretty warm up until noon or so, then the winds picked up and the temperatures dropped.
Right now, it's about 10 p.m., and it's downright nippy outside.
The meteorologist said that, as of 5:30 p.m., we were 15 degrees cooler than yesterday at the same time.
It was a bit of a shock to step outside and be hit with colder air.

Mother Nature Forgot What Month It Is

We've been having a bit of a warm October.
Today we broke a 145-year-old high temperature record.
Oh my gosh, if you didn't look at the calendar, you'd have thought it was August out there.

Heron was in my kitchen most of the day, making soup.
It smells like heaven.
He freezes it for later meals for himself, but he has no working kitchen so he borrows my kitchen and my freezer.

"Seasonal depression hits like a wall every single year."

I don't think I have to write every single day that Cowboy mostly sleeps and then eventually goes to work.
That should be a given.

The life of a third shift worker is terrible for him and the family.

10 out of 10 doctors agree: my dog’s backend should be classified as a chemical weapon

Today was Duffy's yearly appointment with the veterinarian.

We walk into the exam room, and the veterinary technician looks at Duffy, looks at us, and goes, “Oh, this isn't a kitty cat. I'm used to cats.”

I think she may have been disappointed.
Every time we go in, it's with a different cat, and here we come in with a frankenmutt.

Strictly a bed potato today

This was not a productive day.

Cowboy went to morning and evening church services.
He rarely misses.

Survived a 13-hour shift. Please send food, blanket, and zero social interaction

I was up before 6:30 a.m. today.
That makes for a very long day.

I took the risk of running into a raccoon as it was still rather dark out and went on outside to feed my little stray.
I also walked down and made sure the RV cats were safe.
I worry about the door blowing open and them getting out.
