Good Morning everyone,

I had a post all typed up and was just finishing it when I lost it due to operator error. So will start again.

Seems to be cold all over the whole country. The cold being experienced in FL and along the east coast is the same storm system affecting us. It's cold here too. 20 degrees and a fairly stiff breeze blowing. We are under a Lake Effect Snow Warning today for possible 2-4 inches of snow, but winds making blowing and drifting situations. In these lake effect conditions you never know what is going to happen. Wind shift and the whole picture changes.

I had planned to spend the day inside cleaning house and putting some of my stuff back up on my kitchen walls. But my next door neighbor called last night and asked if I could clear her drive out. Her house is up for sale and she has moved downstate to live with her son and daughter in law. I've been doing their drive for them for the past three winters. They pay me to clear it. When she moved this fall, she didn't say anything about it so I haven't bothered. But her real estate agent has been showing the house and the snow is getting a little hard to walk through, so would I mind doing it again No problem. So as soon as I finish up here, I am going to do up my breakfast dishes and get out there and start clearing drives. Hers and mine are both around 200 feet long. But hers is long and straight. I have about a 3-4 car width at top of mine, plus I also clear next to my garage and into my fenced in backyard, the which of I clear abuot half out for the furbabies, so they can take care of business and move about a bit. So depending on how much snow we get, I can be out there for 4 hours sometimes. But there are some areas around her drive I don't have to do now that nobody's living at the house. So that will cut down on time. And people ask me what I do in winter......

So I will probably clean house tomorrow instead, but might hang some stuff up on the walls today though. Then of course the furbabies are going to want to go for a walk..... Such is life in the north country in winter.

I ordered a Memory stick/adapter card from Amazon yesterday along with a spare adapter, so I will be in business in the camera dept. again by weeks end. Thank you to all who gave me ideas and tips on where to get them. More snow pictures will be forthcoming.

So I am going to bid farewell to you for this morning and get my act in gear around here. Have a great day and hope it warms up for you.

Good Morning oh Sue better you than me have done more than my share of shoveling the white stuff... glad it is not white here... but it is cool 30 now and maybe 50 later...
Wow I rode to the post office yesterday now I can get my post office Box... It just takes time when you are not used to riding anymore... Shadow loves the walk...
I hope Liz has enjoyed her camping this weekend...
I am better today thanks for the good words of encouragement...
My Bright Hope keeps nice and toasty warm for me... I am still not wanting to unhook and put more LP gas in...
Have a great Monday everyone

GOOD MORNING SISTAHS!!!

Brrrr, shiver, shiver! It's not really 'cold' but it is down right chilly outside. It rained over night and it has sprinkled this morning so it is really damp out there and the sky is a dead light gray. The dampness and chill sinks in and makes for a really dreary day. Kinda matches my mood today. For whatever reason I am feeling down in the dumps and super blah. Don't really have an idea why tho? I know the feeling wont last but at the moment? YUCK. Maybe it's a carrot day?

Nothing planned here today except dishes and some house cleaning. Might run to the store quick like to pick up a couple of things and that's about it.

Next door neighbor, the one who has lived here for 3yrs has been on a cleaning, re-doing, hoeing out and remodeling frenzy!!! She had to work today but was still up at midnight last night trying to put her TT back into some kind of livable shape. Helped her carry in her dresser last night at 11:30pm. Told her she was gonna be dragging butt today. She groaned and said she didn't want to think about it! She had her TT decorated up in sort of a Moroccan style, says she's not sure what way she is gonna go this time.

OK, enough of my exciting life. Hope everyone has a good day and does their best to stay safe.

Love to all

Looking really good Soos. Love that dining set. Those chairs look to be good and sturdy.

Sorry, Echo, that you're having a bad day. Those cold, damp, gray days are no fun.
It'll pass and you'll be back to your upbeat old self (well, not that you're old, which you are, but I mean your TYPICAL, upbeat self).

..

Gosh Mitch, you sure you aren't suffering from "almost foot in mouth" type ailment?? Sure glad Echo has a great sense of humor, for your sake.

Soos, I love that table and chair set. I'd love one that size, is this the one also that had the piece to enlarge it? ( can't remember right word )CRS, you know?(can't remember stuff)

Kathleen, sorry you had a day of hurting. Hope the days ahead are better.

We had snow here yesterday morning too, and boy is it cold outside. Florida is too, so no place to run even if I could.

Hope everyone is having a good day, in spite of weather or anything else. Morning is long gone, but Have a great day for the rest of it.

Stay safe and warm,
CArol

Heck, I'm older than Echo...I sure as heck wouldn't have said that if I was younger than she is!!

..

Now, you sound like me, I figure I can say, and I do, anything I want to , to those younger then me, which darn it, seems to be almost everyone anymore

I just hadn't thought about you being older, or would have allowed you some slack there young'un

Beautiful dinette Soos, ya done good! And the area rug matches perfectly with your sofa...how'd you do that?

Lookin' good kitchen set/rugs, Soos! You did good!

Yesterday I watched my GD play basketball. Lost both games, but the last one was pretty close. I had a sinus headache or some such going on, so was glad to come home and take some meds. Today I'm feeling better.

Just came inside. I finally got off my lazy butt and pruned back the front yard rosebushes. I really don't like the job as the thorns are horrid, but so glad it's done for another year. My lawn guy was by to put on the iron and said I needed to get the grass in the back yard shorter and some of the leaves up, so I mowed that, too.
Tomorrow it's suppose to start raining and continue for like 2 wks straight, so I'm very happy to have it done!

Last night I got some pictures of my 14 yr old GD. She and her girlfriend went stag to the Winter Ball at her high school. She looked so pretty and grown up. Her dress was pretty short, and she is 5' 10" so she looked to be all legs! I'll have to try posting a picture, altho the ones I got weren't very big.

Ok, everyone stay healthy and happy today!

Now that is a good looking girl!!! Both of them are. ;>

14???

(ps: glad you're feeling better!)

Yep, 14!
Thanks, Mitch, I'm not 100% but much better anyway.

Echo, what's a carrot day?

Soos, that rug looks nice there and fits perfect! Was thinking maybe you could get a glass top to put on the wicker table there. The dining set is vey nice too! Looks like you are getting everything put together nicely! How many bedrooms are there?

Sounds like I am the only one with decent weather! 68 and sunny today! (again ). Talked to my dad today and he said he is already sick of winter and it's only the first week of December! So glad I'm not there!
