High temp of -2

The high for tomorrow is only going to be -2.  Should  be a good day to just hang out in the shop, drink coffee, and see what we can make.

I hate being cold, but also hate to have to heat the shop up too much and spend all the money I'm earning!  Recently found insulated coveralls called Body Covers that are for women.  Got mine in burgundy, but they also come in black and navy.  SO NICE to find some that actually fits my shape.  So comfortable and not too stiff and heavy, but plenty warm.  The sleeves zip off if you want to wear a coat over them.  Not cheap at $119 plus $12.95 shipping, but the ones I saw for men at the stores aren't cheap either.

Anything to make life more enjoyable!

Wow! I guess we are having a heat wave. It's supposed to get to +4 tonight. I'm glad I moved the shop to the basement.

We are supposed to warm up over the next week, just heard -4C by the weekend - anything is better than the -40C windchill we had this past weekend.  (Winnipeg, MB)

Wow!!! some pretty cool temperatures where you are.

In Aussie, we are in the middle of a record breaking heatwave. I live in Adelaide and the temperature over the last few weeks has been pretty high. It is not unusual to have day after day of temperatures around 40?celsius (104?f) When I am in my workshop, I can only do 30 minutes at a time because the thermometer shows it is another 10? hotter than outside. If I wait until night when it gets cooler, I have to be aware that my noise may upset the neighbours.
So, woodworking takes a back seat until the season changes and deals up some cooler weather. But on the bright side, I still have my garden to keep me busy.
