It's supposed to get down to freezing here for the next two days--there was even a tornado warning this afternoon.
I left the house today in jeans and a tank top, because it was about 65 degrees. When I got outside after school, it was raining and 40 degrees and I was freezing.
But now, the grass should be warm for the next two days, and the gerbils and hamsters are cuddled up in their nests.
That's a pretty cozy thought.
Also, I'm excited about getting my file cabinet, which I will use as a nightstand. I plan to have a small plant for it (maybe my cactus, although maybe not bc it seems happier outside), my lamp that I've had for about 4 years now, and piles of books.
Here's a picture of the covered up grass:

Forgive my ignorance, but why are you covering your grass like that? Up here, the grass will die if you do something like that for more than a one or two days...and you have to worry about it forming mold as well..
well...we did it because we just planted our grass and didn't know if it would last through a freeze.
Is that bad?
In any case, I took it off now, but we might put it back tonight.
Grass is essentially a weed, so you shouldn't have to worry about a freeze killing it. It manages to last in MN. ;-) I would be more worried about the trapped moisture and lack of sunlight damaging it than cold weather. The freeze will make it go dormant (so it'll go brown), but once the weather warms back up again, so long as you water it, it'll come back green and happy.
