Summer in Winter
Woman in the Middle | February 11, 2016We always get one warm spell in the middle of winter. Well, we are having our warm spell and it is a doozy! Weather hovering around 90 for at least a week. As usual, I was caught off guard by this. Most importantly, I am in desperate need of a pedicure. It is definitely sandal weather and my toes are not in any shape to be seen by anyone!
Another problem is that I completely lost my winter window of opportunity to trim the orange tree. The warm weather has caused flower buds to pop out instantly. If I trim them off there won’t be any oranges next year and that would make a lot of people really unhappy.
Meanwhile, El Nino is still AWOL. They say not to fear, we will have a 20% chance of rain in the middle of next week. Whoo boy, 20%. Around here, 99.9% of the time, that means no rain.
So, our weird winter continues to astound, surprise, and puzzle all of us here in So Cal. Excuse me while I go find a pair of shorts.
