It&rsquo;s COLD outside.<\/p>\n<p>Our Christmas is white, the air is crisp and clear. The sun is just peaking over the mountains and it&rsquo;s spectacular.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s 24 F and rising.<\/p>\n<p>I slept late and am enjoying my first cup of coffee. I never thought I&rsquo;d be &ldquo;that&#8221; guy but when I woke up, I grabbed my phone and told it to tell the thermostat to raise the temp in the house to something above 50F. Then I waited warm under the covers until the house was in the 60s.<\/p>\n<p>This time of year the neighbors don&rsquo;t have to worry about looking in my windows and seeing me heading naked to the coffee pot. I&rsquo;m in clothes the minute I&rsquo;m out of bed. Cold tile on your feet wakes ya up like nothing else.<\/p>\n<p>I&rsquo;d really like a &ldquo;connected&rdquo; coffee pot. One that I could control from the phone like the thermostat. I&rsquo;d like to tell Siri, &ldquo;Good Morning&rdquo; and have the house warming and coffee brewing when I decide to haul my carcass out of bed.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe I&rsquo;ll hit the after Christmas sales and see if anyone makes a device like that.<\/p>\n<p>There&rsquo;s another storm supposedly on the way. There&rsquo;s supposed to be another 6&rdquo; of snow and that&rsquo;s okay. Maybe I&rsquo;ll make a naughty snowman in the front yard or something.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I hope everyone is safe and having a Merry Christmas. My plan is to have a quiet one, watching movies, and being a pig.<\/p>\n<p>Merry Christmas to all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baby! It&rsquo;s COLD outside.
