We are in the middle of a severe weather event: heavy rain, winds around 60 mph, flash flooding, and tornados a few miles away. The sky has gotten as dark as night several times in the last hour.

Thus far our neighborhood still has power.

This is turning out to be a most interesting day.

I did get our outside area prepared earlier today. The most difficult part was coaxing the cat out from one of her favorite outside hiding places. She is hunkered down in my office right now.

Stay safe my friend.
 

Yesterday I cleaned and vacuumed and did laundry 😑. Changed the bag on the vacuum and cleaned it up

Made the soy dogs and beans for dinner. Almost blew the roof off with the gas they gave me😅But what a relief 🙃

We are now having a snow fall and it looks so pretty out there. I am staying in.

Nice to see ya!
 

Good Morning People...
How are we all doing today, doing pretty good here... Well saw the diabetic doctor on Wednesday... and got good news from that new medication, it held my sugar levels between 4.5 and 6.5... That is pretty much perfect...Gained a few pounds though, but she said it's because I quit smoking, I said I haven't quit that long ago, and she said it's still because I quit, and everything will eventually level out...

Yesterday the Grandon was here, and we had a wonderful day playing cars, he is fascinated with tow trucks... Going to get one of my best buddies who drive a tow truck to come over in the Spring so Aiden can see it up close...

Well, we got him again today, and can't wait to play cars again... Not a lot else going on here, except we are getting a dump of snow... I don't think we got as much as they figured, but we got enough...

Anyways, I hope YOU all have a FANTASTIC Friday, Keep Safe, and God Bless YOU all...
Mike
 
Good Morning everyone! Looks like a wet dreary kind of day here in NY. I plan on making my way through a box of photographs that I have accumulated from my mom when she passed away in 2002. I am sharing them with my cousins as my mother took a lot of pictures at family events. I have been going through my own and making an album for my son and one for my brother of his family. Takes time.

This afternoon I will be going to our tenants' meeting downstairs in our community room. A small group of us meet monthly to plan our events for the month. That is all I have planned so far.
 
We got the ice/snow mix, ❄❄❄
which adds pretty little sparkling icicle trimmings, to everything outdoors, that I see from indoors.

Along with the white vanilla icing look, along each dark, bare tree branch, and the white clump on each arm type branch of the evergreen trees, drooping from the weight of the heavy wet blankets.

Yes, it's pretty but I could easily be convinced to trade it , for one warm, sunny day in the South, today! ☀:)

Trying out cold packs, in place of some of my heat pads, today. And a couple of additional simple, anti-pain strategies, other than the ones that haven't been helping, recently.
Keeping up hope, is my main goal, today.

Managed to water 2 houseplants, today, too. (y)(y)
 
Cold night...sunny now and up to 60° so they say.

Hub and I doing our morning walk and then planning on chain sawing a downed old oak tree. Good day for
some work around the property.

Have a great day guys...Kaila, sure hope you feel better. What's ailing you?
 
Nothing much to tell today... Didn't go anywhere, did a few chores, stored some things away in some new snap on boxes I bought, .. Fell asleep on the sofa for a little while...

It has been another gloriously sunny day today.. although a good chill in the air, but now at gone 4.30pm it's starting to fade now , and it'll be dark by 5.15..ish

@Kaila, what's causing all your pain?.😟.I hope your strategy works ...failing that, you can always come and stay in THIS South.... :giggle:
 
Sufferin' Succotash!

We got a couple of inches of snow early this morning, and the ground and trees are still covered. Good day to sit in front of the fireplace. I am just about to take a nice pot roast out of the oven. It has, of course, potatoes and onions and carrots and celery with it. And, yes we are having succotash on the side. I'm a comfort food sorta fella.
 
I fell asleep in recliner and felt like I was sleeping so good- did not. want to wake up. Phone rang-answered - thinking I heard what she said. Told her to cancel my appointment...oops wrong place.luckily she asked more questions and I realized almost cancelled wrong one.
Then, even tho it is a bit nippy outside I ate me some ice cream. Sooo good😀
 
Thanks for asking about me, those above. Having multiple health challenges, but did alright later in the day.

Lost all INternet for several hours, for this afternoon and evening, from ice/snow storm, here....
(also lost TV with it, and power flickered, but thankful that heat stayed on)

Just got it back late evening in my time zone.
Glad to know I have it. And good to see all of you, here.
 
Good Morning Everyone...
Woke up early, couldn't sleep anymore... Played the games, going to look around, and try bed again...

Yesterday,
Vacuumed all the spider webs in the rafters in the basement... Took some more wood down, Played with the Grandson... shoveled three times...

Not a lot planned for today as of so far... going to try bed again...

Have a wonderful day, keep Safe... and God Bless YOU all...
Mike
 
The snow has finally stopped!

We have over a foot of fresh snow and the main roads are open, a wonderful winter weekend for the skiers.

Temperatures are expected to climb into the 40s with rain in the forecast for Monday, people will be shoveling rooftops this weekend too!

I'm sitting by the window with a hot cup of coffee listening to the hum of the snowblowers.
 
Texas wildflowers blooming right outside the front door...have been for almost a month now - early for us! We cut up some more wood down in the bottom land yesterday, going to enjoy the bright sunny day and do probably as little as we can get away with except our normal 4 miles walk & read around the driveway...hope y'all have an enjoyable day, too!
