It is so cold in the house that the fire isn't doing anything other than making me angry. It isn't the fire itself that's the problem. It's the fact the wood stove isn't sending the heat to the rest of the house. But I guess that maybe it is, but when the air hitting the house is way below freezing temperature (currently it's -5°F/-21°C without factoring in the wind), it makes the house a whopping 56°F/13°C. It sucks a lot because I wanted to play more Grand Theft Auto III in my room, but it ...

I am sitting near the fire as I type this. U is asleep on the couch in front of me. The wind is blowing very hard against the house, but the fire is roaring so I can barely hear wind. That's been my day pretty much. Just staying in, staying warm. The only times I went outside were to feed the animals and bring in firewood. I told my brother that I was worried about the animals tonight, but he said that they would be fine. Luca has access to warmth from the garage, because of the fire in the ...

I rode to Sinking Spring this morning. It was really, really cold. But it was manageable. It wasn't AS cold as it was yesterday, so that was nice. It wasn't much warmer, but it wasn't as cold.

While I waited, I looked at all of the things I couldn't buy. Like a movie called Pokémon Heroes. I have never heard ...

Before my brother and I left for town, I boiled some water and put it in a sealed container. I had the feeling that the lock on the shed would be frozen. This is because I had to pour some of the water I was giving Luca when I fed her on her gate to thaw out the ice that had formed on it in order to open it and feed her. I am glad I brought the water, because the lock was indeed frozen. The person who brings the papers to the office had no luck in unlocking the shed, so he left the papers on ...

It snowed all day today. I woke up and saw that the deck was covered in snow. However, it was only a wet snow and the snow on the porch would simply melt as soon as it touched. But the porch ended up losing that fight, and the snow took over and now covers the entire thing. Not only that, but it is really stacking against the front of the house. When you step onto the front porch, you are stepping into six inches of snow (at least) because the wind is blowing it against the house. But as you ...
