Brass Monkey Weather!

I don't know what's happened to the heat around this place, but I just got back from having dinner at Il Tegamino's and I can't stop shivering. It's so cold, they had the outside tables folded up, the doors to the courtyard were closed shut and the heaters were all on. This time last week Sarah and I sweltered as we ate at the same venue.






A quick check of the weather forecast shows the temperature dropping like a brick. It's supposedly 7C outside right now and it's going to steadily drop to a low of -7C on Tuesday.
I don't think I've ever been anywhere that wasn't the top of a mountain, and felt that sort of cold! I wish I'd packed my thermals.

Had to laugh at the Hawaiian Pizza I had for dinner, there was so much ham on it you couldn't see any of the other ingredients. Just ham and a crust. I took 90% of it off and piled it up in a huge mound on the side of the plate.

Nothing really to offer today other than the weather and Ham reports... Blood test in the morning.. I'm expecting it to be good, but to be told that they want to wait another day or so. I guess we shall see, I'm not holding my breath, and I'm trying not to stress over it.
One thing that did bother me last night was a 'night sweat' I usually get these when my Hodgkin's is active. However I did have a hot bath just before going to bed, so I'll cross my fingers, hope that was the cause and that I don't get a repeat again tonight.

Till tomorrow...

We must have down swaps! It's been a lovely warm spring day here in Lower Hutt. Gone from winter to summer overnight!! At about 6.30pm the moon was just glorious - a pale orb in a dark blue sky just hanging over the eastern hills!
... hoping to read that your blood test was fine and that your treatment can continue without any further delays!!
Take care

I think it's autumn here. The weather is something quite out of the norm accoring to the people I've spoken to. It's supposed to snow in the mountains above us tomorrow. Oh PS: Must have been the ham or the male menopause.. last night was fine.
