The Heat Is On

No, I’m not talking about the 1984 Glen Frey song from the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack.  I’m literally talking about turning on the furnace when the house was 62 degrees on Sunday morning.  We kept the heat on all day yesterday, overnight last night and we kept it on this morning when we left the house.   The calendar says June, but Mother Nature has a different idea.  Here’s the current weather outside my office compliments of weather.com.

Today's Weather

Makes you want to come and visit the biggest lake in the world, doesn’t it?  Check out the wind gusts – 38mph.  I especially love that they actually need to put in the wind chill factor – feels like 30 degrees.

I must be a glutton for punishment, I checked weather.com again thinking that the conditions must be improving.  Wrong!  The temperature is now down to 38 degrees and it feels like 28.  It’s a beautiful March day in Duluth!

Rock On

With cold temperatures and rain, we found ourselves hanging out in the basement tonight after dinner.  Sebastian started playing computer games and Sophia played with toys.  I decided to play a few songs of Guitar Hero.  Soon both kids left what they were doing and started dancing to Blondie, Pat Benatar, Smashing Pumpkins, Linkin Park and Billy Idol’s Rebel Yell.  As I played more songs, the kids got wilder and wilder with their dance moves adding kicks, twists and twirls.  Sophia even danced with her “ballet” moves.  She was pretty cute.  I wish I could have caught them on video or even snapped a picture, but I was too busy rocking out.  At the same time, it was probably best that I didn’t.  Sebastian declared that he was too hot from dancing and took off his shirt to cool off.  Because Sophia has to do everything her older brother does, she did the same.  Instead of my pretty little ballet dancer, she looked like a Vegas showgirl.  It was time for me to hang up the guitar for the night.

Last Day Of School

Sebastian’s last day of school is today.  I grabbed the camera as an afterthought as he was headed out the door.  He didn’t want to wait for me to take a picture, but I talked him into one.  He has a great summer lined up including time at his regular daycare (his friends who are the same age will be back again this year too).  He will also spend a few days in the Twin Cities with his cousins and some time with his grandparents at their cabin in Northern Minnesota.  We also have a vacation planned and will spend time being tourists in Duluth along with some other day trips.  If only we could get some warmer weather, we would be all set.
