Good morning Virginia. Good morning Shawn. Maybe we could go to a January to December thread. 70* for a cool start to the day. That'll change soon.

Temperature is rising. Power was out for 12 hours last Sat. at daughter's place. "Planned maintenance" Think the power co would have been smart enough to do this during the week when people were at work. Some people were notified ahead of time. Most were not.

Don't know what is worse, Shaun..no heat or no cooling. Daughter was right in the middle of some baking when the power went out.

That sucks George. I can deal with it getting cold no problem. The heat is the worst though.
