Stay warm TRF

It’s days like this week where I am thankful for remote start on my F150..
Warm and toasty when I get in

We rarely get mid 20’s around here.. yes, Southerners are wimps, except for hurricanes

When the ears start freezing off the cows you know it's cold out.

Do you have booties and muffs for your pup?

Norma prefers to go in her natural coat.

We do use booties if we walk her in town (sidewalk salt/slush).

She just loves the snow

we just moved into a new office in August (new construction). Got two HVAC units for our building, which is roughly 5000sq ft, single story, with about a 2000sq ft warehouse. Half of the building has been having A/C issues since day one. Today, the other half of the building is having heating issues. Pretty fun.

HVAC guys came out yesterday.

My office is sitting at 63 right now. Heater set to 73.

Unsure what HVAC guys did, but they didn't fix the problem.

They changed a filter and billed you $1800.

These last few winters have been very mild in Minnesota. Seems normal out there for the next few days. Lows in single digits and highs in the teens. NO snow at all. It's absolutely barren outside.
