I'm wearing my sweat pants, knee-high socks and sneakers 'cus my fuzzy slippers are not
warm enough! I took my beautiful azalea plant in from the porch inside so it won't freeze.
46°F as I speak. This is cruel and unusual punishment!!

No slack for you! LOL. It was 62 here two days ago. Now it's 23! Same problem, but colder! And here
I am, in the SOUTH?????? NC doesn't know whether it's North or South, so it goes up and down whenever it pleases. Feh! I'm moving back to FL (I lived in Delray and Boynton Beach for 7 years).

Michael, is that a Bird of Paradise on the left of the picture? If so,
do they handle the cold weather??? I see you are using frost cloth to protect some tender plants. We use it here in the Sacramento Valley too. Our elderly kitty, who wants to be outside, has discovered that if she snuggles into a mound of frost cloth, she stays warm. So we have a bunch of it sitting on our garden bench, just for her.
Lovely home, by the way.

Thanks, Karen! Yes it's a Bird of Paradise...first bloom since we moved in four Christmases ago.
They do seem to be ok in our freezes. So far.
We just got the Frost Cloth so we'll see how it works. Maybe our kitty will like it too. For him, this is couch weather. He never jumps up on the couch unless it's real cold.

Don't laugh - I even put the heat on!
When the temp in the house dropped from 63 F to 60 F, I switched the heat on, set to 65. And I'm bundled up as well.
I know, I'm a wimp. But 12 years in FL will do that to you!
