Hahahaha! I am from down south. It is a different cold here in the foothills of the Blue Ridge. This morning it was 20F.

Very cold up here. Fires are roaring. I am toasty warm.

Mine is in-ground. One day it might be a goose pond

Unplug things not in use. Just being plugged in uses current. If you have lots of things plugged in now you can drop you power bill $25 - 40 doing this. A hair dryer, toaster, coffee maker use alot of power. Also use strip outlets.

I have a pool cover. I hate leaves in my pool!!!! No one wants my summer bill either, Kitty. "Can you beleive my bill was $125 this month!?!" "Mine was $413. Wanna trade?" Met with silence.

Quote: Orange county. That makes me a Real Housewife in the OC???? Normally my bill is $100. I live in a 100 yr old farm house, 2 story, 4 square. 1 heat pump and a/c for the top floor and 1 for the downstairs. My electric topped out at $400 this year. Not because of a/c. The pool pump is...

You can milk the goat at 8am.

Kitty, do you all milk twice a day? or more?

I have only been in dairy barns with a milking parlour that is all concrete and raised platforms. I forget some people may have to do it otherwise. I will say this- beyond the smell of cow poop - love the warm smell of cows and horses and other livestock.

Kitty, how warm do y'all keep the milking parlour on days like this?

Quote: We had a mildly tolerant summer. Lots of rain and ambient temps. Summer before last was our worst summer. I am not looking for spring. I enjoy cold weather. I like the fact that it gets so cold the ground bursts open. All the nasty little bugs die and their eggs and larvea with them...

Sometimes when the house is really warm I forget to load the stoves too. LOL It was 27 overnight and 32 right now. My stove and fireplace is rocking with wood burning action right now.

Quote: Those chicks will need consistant heat for the next 8 - 12 weeks depending on how they feather out. If this were spring or summer you would be able to begin weaning them from the daytime heat at around 6 - 8 weeks. Since we are heading in to winter you must commit yourself to brooding...

Calling for flurries here tonight and tomorrow. I am so not ready for snow.

I am so glad I have bread and milk. LOL

Living in Ga for most of my life I prefer those extreme swing, ruby.
