Where is Summer?

Ok I understand the whole global warming stuff but it must be happening everywhere else. We are on the cusp of a ice age here I swear man. The last time I saw snow was a mere 3.5 months ago and here we are the start of September and it is 58 degrees with 30 miles an hour winds. So far I think here in Maine we have had 1 week of summer like weather and I use the term "summer like" extremely loosely. I have woke up to countless mornings of frost and the damn leaves are almost half changed in color already. So here's the thing maybe I should start a pool to see when the first snowfall will be, I mean we had the last of the snow this past winter in mid May!!!! I think I am slowly turning into a Polar Bear ;)

So the house well well, my husband has so many projects going on at one time that need to get done before winter. They are kind of critical projects, for example the heating in our bedroom is tore apart, so yeah no heat for us in there. I know what your thinking just snuggle up, let me remind you WE HAVE 6 KIDS ALREADY, I know what happens when you "snuggle up". His plan for the heating for our room is a good one, we have these old water radiators that he wants to put in our room. They will look beautiful because they are very ornate and we are going to paint them all silver, so hey perfect for this house & the age of days gone by. Here's the thing though, each one of those buggers is over 1,000 pounds in weight and we have to wrestle them out of the basement & up the back porch steps. Then drag them down the hallway witch is another 70 feet and place them in our bedroom. Can you say HERNIA!!!! So we are currently trying to come up with a game plan for the least amount of pain for us to get them in our room. Should be fun to move all 4 of them...ROFL

Here is a picture of just one of them, can you feel the pain? To think this is the smallest of the 4 of them yeahaaa!
