The weather this week has been totally insane.
It has been unusually freezing cold. I live in the southwest part of the country and usually this time of the year it is in the low 80s. We have been having temperatures in the 40s at night and in the day it has been in the mid 50s. My central heating system has been working overtime! I am not used to having the central heating going on this time of the year so much. Sure at night sometimes you need it for a little bit, but not all the time. The heater has been going so much that I decided to give it a break last night. I did this by taking my portable space heater and putting it in my bedroom while I slept. The portable space heater is so powerful so it keeps the room super warm no matter how cold it is. The only thing was when I woke up early this morning I was hit with a freezing living room! The thermostat read 59 degrees which is freezing for out in this part of the country. I had to turn on the central heating cranked in order to warm it up. While it warmed up I sat in the bedroom with the nice warm space heater still going. Finally after about 20 minutes the living room and front end of the house started to warm up enough to where I could have something to eat for breakfast and take a shower. Next week it is supposed to be back in the 80s again. This weather has been really crazy!
