Elspeth as a Dire Wolf

Yesterday I felt like a character in the  GAME OF THRONES.  All we've heard for the past three days Is  the cold front was descending from Canada.  We didn't need  Monte Montello from channel 14 to show us his blue screen.  We have the living barometer of Pat, who can be  a Cassandra.

These rapid weather changes are hard on him.  Thank goodness we had an easy hurricane season, we were sort of dreading that.  His joints ache as if he has a sinus infection all over his body and he can't sleep. Lack of sleep means he spends the day just waiting for nap/bedtime and his speech goes all flooey.

  Due to his life long habit of using power tools and no ear protection Pat has chronic tinnitus. If he takes too much ibuprofen, to relieve the pain, then his limited hearing becomes non-existent.  Yesterday was really difficult because we were in the middle of a near 30 degree temperature drop. We watched a couple of good movies but basically just enjoyed visiting with our grandsons who had come to call. We didn't make it outside at all.

At one point Pat even intoned,  "Winter is coming."

 At least his Permobile is more comfortable than the iron throne.
