75 and sunny here. Only a few brush fires around me this week.
When I was in california it was pretty much 2 layer weather, wear a shirt and then a second layer or hoodie. And it was largely 60 or so every day. Except for the morning and nights which were a bit chilly.

Then going back to DC it's 30, 40 and this week it's in the teens lol

Thats not all California. Just where the heathens live (south of San Luis Obispo & Bakersfield).

Those north of that, are cold and wet. Lots of rain. And temps around freezing at night.

So it’s an interesting mix

I keep both my kitchen window and bedroom window open about 3 inches in the winter cause the heat really rises being on the top floor of three level condos still will rarely drop below 63. Would be different if I had windows on the opposite side but I don't they are all only east facing. Starting to get a little over it with all the truly glorious coldness in the DC area.
 
Lame update … no sleep out date night w wife. My mom has been sick for like 2 weeks now

Would have been Cambridge MD, dinner then RAR brewery, holiday inn … probably would have been less than 300 honestly

Hope your Mom is doing ok. I'm sure you are like me once parents get to the age of 'you'll get that call any time'. Not sure, for me, if this is a good thing or not.

It’s so exhausting. Dad never made it to 70, but the rest of the four parents (yay divorce! :confused:) are in their ‘70s, stepdad needs a kidney, and MIL is 87 with Alzheimer’s. I love them all, but man…

The older we get the harder they are to take care of. The children have become the guardians....it's tough and so many of my friends are dealing with it.
 
I have sadly lost both of my parents. 30 years apart. Both went fast and i am thankful for that. Can’t imagine a long drawn out process with those who raised you. I will have to do that with my parents and winter is coming. So hard.
