Today's Video: Welcome Home
It is cold again today. It was 41 degrees outside this morning, according to Mr. Nitro's temperature display. It was 56 degrees inside my office at that time (7:30 AM). Fortunately, there is very little wind. There is the possibility of sunshine today. The sun appears to be attempting to emerge from behind the clouds. Hopefully, it will soon appear and warm the world outside my (now 68-degree) office.
Of course, there is also the possibility that the sun will continue to hide, the wind will come, and rain will fall. Yikes! What a dismal possibility that is!
