That was the temperature at 3a.m. when Junior foolishly decided he had to go out to use the “litter box.” Is he CRAZED?? He did it too. I had to put a jacket on to wait for him at the door–and I was *inside.* Them new storm windows aren’t rated for 14. Sure, they probably helped, but when it’s fourteen, it’s COLD no matter what.

Scamper stayed gone all day yesterday and last night (Lord only knows where she goes to stay warm. I tell Randy she hibernates.) Well, she was hungry at 6 a.m. so she showed up to eat. She’s been in and out several times. Both cats are determined to check every few minutes to see if it has warmed up yet. Nope. The high today is supposed to be a lovely, balmy THIRTY degrees with two more nights in the teens.

Hmph.
