I opened the door to let my old dog out - he took one sniff of that 12 degree air, looked up at me as if to say "WTF, Pappy?", but went outside anyway. He's a good dog.
Anyway, I hope all you Lemmings had a great evening and that your morning is not too painful.

Happy New Year, everyone!
Happy and healthy New Year to all the good people here.
Hello, New Year, please warm up.
Five degrees here. But hey, I'm getting used to it!
How many here were actually up at midnight? Not me.
The video was wonderful. Happy New Year.
Allen, ditto.
We are in double digits here, so my whining is just that. I think I will prune a couple of mulberry trees today - prune them off at ground level. It's a good way to stay warm, improve the landscaping and demonstrate to the other trees that I mean business. Oh yeah!
I turned in at my usual time, but was awakened at midnight by fireworks. Fireworks if we are lucky. Actually I only heard 3 bangs - it was too cold for even the most dedicated partiers to blow up things. For that I am thankful.
G'mornin and Happy New Year to everyone. Double digits here, too, at -24 this morning. Bright and sunny though.
Double digits don't count unless they're above freezing.
Spotted a coyote loping through the backyard this morning. They're usually north of here, so the pups need somebody riding shotgun until further notice.
Going up to 34 here today in SE NC. We have so many coyotes now that they have a couple of archers culling the herd. Really. Along with the dear (those fuckers). Oh, Happy New Year.
Deer Deer Deer Deer.
Do not cull my dear.
We were up at midnight, welcoming the New Year quietly after stopping the movie we'd been watching at 3 minutes to twelve to witness the ball drop. No popping streamers this year as has been our tradition, as I'd forgotten to get them out of drawer where the stash resides awaiting celebration. Instead, we noted how short 2017 had seemed, felt grateful for making it through alive and together, and went back to the movie.
Even with temps where they are, it's good to know we're closer to the arrival of spring than we were to Christmas back September the turn toward fall took place.
Beautiful sunrise! The vid was a wilder run (and lovelier in places) than I was expecting, leaving me with a desire to look for adventure, laugh more, and remember to celebrate what needs celebrating!
All the Google doodle needs is a dog in place of one of the penguins to replicate Sixty in Aloha garb greeting the New Year from his place of southern coolness!
Happy New Year to all who lurk, comment and post!
I awoke with the heartiest belly laugh not even out of bed yet.
A newsreader was on. But not a recognizable network. He read Donald Trump's New Year greeting and wishes. Imagine a newsreader reading this disinterestedly dispassionately somewhat pleasantly and without rancor, no reaction at all save for simply reading what Donald Trump wrote:
As our Country rapidly grows stronger and smarter, I want to wish all of my friends, supporters, enemies, haters, and even the very dishonest Fake News Media, a Happy and Healthy New Year. 2018 will be a great year for America!
I died laughing. Resurrected and continued laughing. My president is the funniest thing ever, funnier than any comedian presently, and he has these ridiculous people dancing like little puppets on strings. They must follow him closer than I do and they must report what he says. Like a bully much larger than you grabbing your hand and smacking your face with it and saying, "Stop hitting yourself." WHACK "Stop hitting yourself." WHACK "Stop hitting yourself." WHACK "Stop hitting yourself." Whack "Stop hitting yourself." Whack "Stop hitting yourself."
And they just keep doing it. Stupid little marionettes hitting themselves with Donald Trump unseen making them do it and giving the most hilarious show. This was minute one on day one for 2018.
Happy new year. It was 2 hear this morning. Getting a new Clumber pup next week from Mechanicsburg pa
Here not hear
I am so glad CA is going full pot.
CA losers, I mean, really smart people of CA need to vacate horrible horrible wretched Colorado and go back to paradise on a stick, CA.
Yay!
Dad, I found there are no more clear and pure air than those -10 or lower arctic weather days.
new years started off with a broken iPhone glass.
at least it's getting cheaper to replace those. it was only $60.00.
i'm seeing more repair shops popping up everywhere.
Happy New Years. It was below zero here all day. -3 currently.
It is still above 20 here, I got some pruning done, and tonight's low will be 12, so when compared to what many of you are facing, it is relatively comfortable.
It will get above freezing tomorrow and Wednesday and Sunday, according to the forecast, so yay, I guess, but that is a fairly weak yay, that's for sure.
nd, I agree it can be exhilarating. It can also jam up my sinuses and give me a headache. When I go out to move snow or whatever I have to put on some kind of face mask to warm the air before I inhale it. With the mask and sunglasses and insulated coveralls I look like I'm on an Everest expedition.
Home again, home again, jiggity jig. Just made it home from daughter's...9 degrees here in NE Ohio. Erie, PA is in an unfortunate location...the lake snow funnels right on to them.
Dad, When i'm wearing my ski mask I'm always tempted to knock off a couple liquor stores, or "package stores" as they're called in New England.
