I'm far enough south that hopefully we won't get the freezing rain and ice on the roads and power lines - but they keep saying "maybe." I've got a bunch of standing water from the FIVE INCHES of rain we got. So, ice skating for me might actually happen, lol. I hope not - I'm not as agile as I...

YaY!!! We had a round of rain, thunder, and lightening this morning. It stopped for a while and now is back with a vengeance. We're under a flood advisory. That'll make for some wonderful ice skating when I go out to feed for the next few days! WHY????????

Woke up to thunder, lightening and a helluva lot of rain. Upside down day today on temps. Right now is as warm as we'll be until mid-week. Here we go...

That's not ok!

They haven't made it down to us yet. Tomorrow is our lucky day with the rain chance at 100%. Ugh...

Another one of those days! Got a lot done though. I was outside from 7a to 6p...give or take a few minutes for hydration and nourishment. Important stuff, lol. Still have a few things to do tomorrow. Also going to get all the laundry done, change the bedsheets and take a last minute shower...

Woo Hoo! You've got an extra day of warmth!

Busy day trying to get ready for this cold crap that's coming. I was quite ok having a mild winter - didn't need this mess at all! Filled up all the empty gas cans this morning I now have over 50 gallons of gasoline in case I need to feed the generator. Hope I don't need a drop of it...

Awesome!

Had some low carb tortillas so made quesadillas. Found some pork shoulder in the freezer so I thawed it out and shredded it. Sauteed some onions and piled all of that and lots of cheese on a tortilla. Topped it with another tortilla and that was DH's dinner. Mine was the same but only 1...

I'm a tiny bit jealous! Hope you miss the rain and have an enjoyable time!

LOL - sometimes it funny how preconditioned we are. I was thinking (like the rest of the folks in this mess) that I should go to the store. Bread and milk and brownie mix, right? So, looked around. I've got bread. I've got crackers. I've got corn bread mix. Need to get milk right? Why...

So not fair! I live where I live so I don't have to deal with this cold weather crap! I'll be filling up all the gas cans to feed the generator if needed. I have a bunch of buckets to haul water to the critters. I have a feeling I'm going to regret having so many birds in so many different...

I'm in a chili mood...may or may not happen. Options are still open at this point...

Brrrr! We're gonna get some of that mess. I'm not happy about it. I've got a whole bunch of stuff to do and so little time. Story of my life. Thank goodness for coffee!
