It's a frozen world here today. At 5 AM, the actual temperature was four degrees below zero; I have no idea what the wind chill was then. At seven, actual temp was a flat zero, but the wind chill was a bitter thirteen-below. Supposedly we'll hit 25 today, but I'm not convinced.
At least we have heat, power, and running water. In the RV, we would have had none of those things yet, and possibly not all day. At least now we have the means to get warm. Even so, this kind of cold is going to make for a difficult week, so I'm hoping we can mostly stay home and in where it's warm. There'll be time enough for all those stresses again in the first full week of January (and yes, they're looming, including the medical stuff).
And since they're looming, I'm still going to post the links. For those wondering about those and my other health issues, see here, although now there's a new wrinkle I'm not even going to bother to try to explain (triggered by this year's flu shot and confirmed by my doctor, and suffice to say there's no affording treatment); with regard to the work done and not done on the house, some of the details are here. [First of the year, we'll need to snag enough from my Patreon to get the plumber back out (and I've lost a patron in the interim, one who was kind enough to give me warning of changed circumstances before unsubscribing, but it's a big hit I haven't been able to make up). Also, the candles on the wishlist? That's what they're for. There's still a residual smell of mildew in the utility room when it's wet outside, or when the temperature gets below zero. I've used them all up at this point.] Folks can help in several ways, and we really need it now:
Please share everything, because I'm suddenly back behind the eight-ball on a whole additional front, and yeah, I'm scared about covering everything and surviving, too. Thanks.
