The temperature plummeted last week with nighttime temperatures dropping below freezing. Snow was threatened but none fell near to us.
Of course, this caused the inevitable warnings of danger to life for people over a certain age, a category that we both are in. We were warned to stay indoors, as if we ventured outdoors, we may freeze to death. Now I know for some people the cold is health-threatening, but I'm sure these warnings of doom are becoming far more frequent. It seems the powers that be are determined to frighten us to death.
I much prefer the cold, bright days to the warmer, drearier ones.
