The cold start to the new year continues. Friday into the first half of Saturday attempted to warm up a little. Unfortunately, it came with some rain. Most of it was overnight, but the lite showers late Friday afternoon managed to keep me away from Disney World once again. By Saturday afternoon the thick cloud cover gave way to sunshine with dropping temperatures.

Today the cool weather was back in force. The high was briefly sixties, but most of the day was in the fifties. The temperature had a different impact on my activities today. It was laundry day. My washer and dryer are in my shed exposing them to the outside temperature. The temperature sensors in the dryer seem to be impacted by the cool temperatures. The drying cycles seem to be taking extra long even though I think it was dry long before the dial indicated so. I was in laundry mode all afternoon into the evening.

Other than moving my tools off of the washer and dryer so I could use them for their intended purpose, I haven’t worked on my furniture projects. Part of the problem is I have reached the comfortable stage with respect to living conditions. The last couple of furniture pieces are needed, but not vital for my comfort.
