    Chicago is having an early Fall, but the days have been lovely.

    Sending out hugs to anyone who is in the path of Hurricane Ike.

    Last 2 days are like sept. 3 nights ago we had a frost scare! Oh my!  I think I had 20 sheets and fabric pieces adorning our yard by midnight!  Phew! Missed us at least!

    Today it's 69, very muggy and trying to rain.  Was great last night, except the hot flashes increase the room temp by about 20 degrees! UGH!

    Personally, I hate that winter is around the corner b/c of the plants, but am looking forward to cooling the bedroom without A/C! :)

    Very windy and starting to rain some here in Houston. We are in the path of Ike coming down from Galveston. Bunkering down for the duration and praying that everyone in his path stays safe!

    Will keep you all in my prayers!

    We have officially broken the record for the most rainfall in 24 hours here in Illinois.  6.7 inches and its still raining today.  Ike decided to team up with a storm that was already upon us.  Lots of flooding here.

    Who would have thought that Chicago was at risk for a tropical depression?

    It's getting colder here, it's starting to smell like fall weather!  And U know what comes right after fall!

    Early in the AM it's about low 50s, and by the end of the day it is only about 65/70.  I am starting to look into my in between seasons clothes already... the kind that you wear in the AM and by PM you are hot as heck and vice versa!

    Ladies and gentlemen in TX, I have been thinking of you, especially all the ones affected by IKE.  Hope you are all safe.

    Safe here from Ike! No power and was told yesterday may be 3 more weeks in my area with out power. We also had several tornados here, so things are pretty messed up with damaged houses and down power lines everywhere. We did get a generator, so I hook up to it several times a day to get online! Just trying to keep positive here, but very tired and hurting. (((((((((((((hugs to all))))))))))))

    Hello everyone!

    Just saw some more pictures of IKE's destruction... OMG! emath and all TX people affected: ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Hugging you)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) - Anything we can do?

    New England is already getting the taste of the fall season; low 40s last night, early this AM upper 40s and during the day we are going to only get in the 60s... same for the weekend, which I am okay w/ that b/c of Jade's soccer games. 

    This AM the heater was certainly cranked up in my car and I even thought that I should have worn a pair of gloves... yeah... I freeze that easily!

    Good day/weekend weather to you all.

    Here in the northern foothills of NC we had lows this morning in the upper 50's and highs expected in the upper 70's, good taste of fall in the air. No rain for several days, not quite out of water restrictions yet but looking better than last year.

    Naughty and Spar thanks for your hugs! Here it is the 25th and we still don't have power where I am at. I hook up the ole laptop  to the generator a few times a day! We are to have cooler nights starting tonight, which will make sleeping (or try to) a little better. The weather in Tx is so hot and humid!  Just hanging in there, sometimes I close my eyes and imagine that it is snowing and everything is white. Last night I thought I felt a coldness on my face and then I opened my eyes and it was the dog breathing on my and it was hot not cold. Frown  They are hoping to have our power on by Monday of next week. I pray they do. (((((((((((((((hugs to all))))))))))))))))))))

    Here in the foothills of NC we are getting winds and showers from the system blowing off the Atlantic. It is a windy, cold, wet, dreary, stay inside kind of day.

    After a few days of a California fall (60's and breezy) here in Silicon Valley we're having record breaking highs - it was 88 today.  I hate the heat, and that is from a California girl through and through!!

    Supposed to be another beautiful Fall day here in Chicago - but as I look out my window I see clouds.  Wont mind too much if it rains, cause I have to work today and would be upset if I missed a beautiful day filled with sunshine.

    I too love Autumn and the changing colors.  Just dont like Winter.

    The rain held off until today. Started raining about 11:00 am. It is a cold rain and steady. Not complaining though, we are still in some drought conditions but not as bad as last year.
