32 tonight but here will likely be 20s. Gotta remember to turn on the pump light again. Another 4 legged yoyo day for me...my winter exercise routine. Rolling on the floor laughing Whistling

I can't complain at all today - beautiful sun, 70deg. and it didn't go below 50 last night either so I didn't cover the hoop house. Same tonight - staying above 50 happily.

We have one more cold-ish night tomorrow, after the next little cool front goes by, and then it's warming up nicely next week.

Its fine here today... its warm, about 70. The new cold front moves in tonight, we are expecting rain, then tomorrow, it will not even get to 62, then down to 32. But only for one night...then it warms up. We too are expecting high 70's and possibly 81 F one day next week.

The rain totally missed us yesterday. I was only 3 miles away from home when the rain band came through, poured where I was, roads wet all the way until I got to our neighborhood Angry ....so no rain in my garden. It only got down to 45 last night, so not too bad here.

I wake up around 4 each day but if I get up the dog wants to be fed and walked. That is not gonna happen so I stay in bed. Sometimes I read or check email and sometimes I just relax until the sun comes up.

ALice that is me. I turn the light off at 10pm. If I am going to acttually 'get sleep', that still entails waking up at midnight, 2am, 4am. Every 2 hours. Sometimes I can go back to sleep, other times I can't.
Sometimes I will be wide awake between 2am-430, then fall asleep until 530-6am. But I never, ever 'sleep all night' anymore and haven't for years. I've been awake now since 2am...its 235pm.

Gina your sleep pattern sounds like mine, I've always been a light sleeper though, any sound will wake me up. My iphone monitors my sleep, and every once in awhile it gives me a congratulations that I achieved my 8 hour sleep goal....like once a month LOL. I do read my Kindle book when I wake up usually fall back to sleep doing that, although that can backfire when the book is really good Whistling

I'll have to see if my iPhone monitors my sleep. I know my watch does but I hate wearing it to bed. My kindle is right beside me all the time.

Yesterday we got a few spit showers, was driving and thought I went through a roadway sprinkler system, then realized it was actually rain. Shows a chance each day for next four days Crossing Fingers!
