Wet Sunday Morning
Posted: Sun Apr 10, 2011 8:57 am
God Morning,
Appears that I am the only one around this morning, so guess I will start the coffee so the rest of you can join me whenever.
A damp morning here at the 45th. We had some thunderstorms move through early this morning and dumped some good rain. Temps are into the upper 40's but the atmosphere is warmer and it's causing the snow piles to create fog. Supposed to clear out and become partly sunny with highs into possible 70's. Another wave of severe weather is expected later this evening if storms develop in WI, like they think they will. Whether we get them here remains to be seen. Might be a squall line of fast moving storms they say. Some areas along the west side of the state below me here had anywhere from pea size to golf ball size hail this morning and awind gust of 79 was reported on shore in one location near Lake Michigan. These storms fell apart as they came farther inland due to the cooler air. So looks like spring is up to her usual shenanigans.
So, I guess today I will finish gathering the garage sale stuff together or possible work on the cupboard doors in the TT while the weather is warm. First I am going to have to go get some hinges and some stain. The doors for the cabinet over the bed are a bit shorter than the opening is, so am going to have to insert a piece of wood in there. Can be done.Also have to cut out the opening as well. But will mount the doors first and get the piece of wood cut to size, stained and put in place before I do any cutting. I like projects like this.
Accomplished quite a bit around here yesterday. Snowblowers are all washed and have fuel stabilzer in their gas tanks and put away for summer. Lawn tractor has it's battery reinstalled and is up and running, awaiting the pickup from the dealer to go over it for me this year and get it ready for cutting season. Garage has been cleaned out and reorganized. A bunch of stuff hauled over to the garage sale. Sitting chairs on deck in the corner for right now. Fountain is also out there but turned upside down for now. Needs a new pump first before I put it together. TT has been moved off the boards I had it sitting on all winter and over to it's summer parking spot. Screens that go inside some of my windows are washed and installed. Will leave outside go till after the storms and rain are over. Then after all was said and done, I BBQ'd some Baby Back ribs on the grill. Yummmm. Finally took the girls for their walk after dinner.
So guess it's time to get moving around here. Am going to Lowe's to get the hinges and look at some wood to do the project with. Have a wonderful Sunday everyone, wherever you may be.
