Day 61- Mr. Golden Sun

It seems like spring MIGHT be on its way! The past couple days have been sunny and as a result the streets have been nice and slushy. Maybe it won't be winter forever after all and I can come out from hibernation soon.
Though the sun was nice and warm today, there was still a chill from the wind. Thankfully, since I was in the house all day, I didn't have to feel the chill. I did, however, get the benefit of the suns warmth! I did something I never do. I opened up the blinds and curtains! Anybody who knows me is probably quite puzzled right now because I'm a bit of a vampire as far as sun goes, but something inspired me to lift up the blinds and part the curtains and am I ever glad I did. Do you realize how much warmer my living room was?? I had to go turn down the heat. Enter: my green change of the day. The weather is expected to be like this for the next little while- a bit too cold to turn off the furnace but sunny outside. Rather than wasting energy and powering my furnace, I will be turning down the thermostat and opening up the blinds on the warm sunny days and allowing the sun to heat my house!

Wishing you lots of happy, sunny days!
