I have had a very busy week. And it isn't over. So I opened a new CH to say good night all.

Goodnight, Tina--I hope that tomorrow puts the end to the business of your days--at least long enough to give you a rest. How is that cold doing, anyway ???

I think it is time for me to get some sleep as well.
nity nite

Good morning

It is freezing outside with heavy winds...calling for a snow storm for us tomorrow. I'll believe it when I see it

Naw, you'll get it, Tamara---Lynne was getting it complete with some power outages yesterday/last night. so yes, I am voting that you will get it.

G'morning BTW:

Yup, Lynne sends it all my way

Morning Carol

Guess you were right, this is the local forecast(I copied and pasted)...
Snowfall Warning : Bathurst and Chaleur Region

Issued at 5:25 AM AST Friday 26 February 2010

Summary

Snowfall amount of 30 centimetres are expected for late today and into Saturday.

well that is good to hear-----will that help DH any???

I assume it will help your flowers, right??

not to get alarmed, but Lynne had some sleet & a bit io f rain mixed in--just to keep it interesting I guess.

Nope, DH is on mandatory time off unless there is an extreme accident(vehicles)

yea dont I hear that one----loud & clear.

and just for conversations sake, my mail comes about 9:30 my time.

what is up for today, and is Emma off to school// (she is old enough for school right???)

Yup, she's off to school. She and her father are leaving at 3pm to drive to Ontario...I hope the snow holds off.

Good morning. I think I am ready for our rains tonight and tomorrow. Then when I am finished with them I send them off eastward. Everyone duck!

Tina.

Tamara--I hope the snow does hold off, but I have my doubts.

Good morning, Tina. and please keep your rains ok?/ as it is I hear we will have a very wet summer, and possible flooding.

My back & arm are not ready for the weeding that would be needed in weather such as we had years back. The weeds were so bad my cousin's DH finally gave up & mowed their garden down. looked just like grass there, when he was done. And we are talking about a farmern here born & raised.

I guess I will have to cover all of mine in dead grass this year, whether or not the back is ready huh???

If all our purchased plants could only grow like weeds

boy, isnt that the truth.

I just made a mistake. I told Rod I had just reached 20,000 posts. was not awake enough to be thinking clearly---I am sure now he figures I spend too much time here for sure---

Tina, I just realized....do you usually get up so early??? Or is it "feed the fires" time ??

Just blame it on me

LOL well ok, I can do that, not sure how that would help me though---

what is on your ajenda today???

Laundry.....

yea, well, I think I am caught up in that department. I may have to find something to clean today.

In a normal time, I would be going shopping (grocery, etc) today, as it is payday.
I guess I will work on the papers I need to file in here. DH & I have been cleaning out our business files lately.

I've got to go for a bit....DH needs some help with something.

well, I will go and see if I can find some breakfast now, then.

...have a good day. I'll catch up with ya later.

My ears were burning earlier this morning, and I see that Carol wrote about me here today. We are definitely having the storm of the year as they predicted correctly for a change. So far we have about 17 new inches of snow, and it's still going strong. Our driveway has been plowed 3 times for this storm already, to the tune of $80 or $100 depending on whether the guy considers today part of yesterday's storm as well. He charges $40 the first time out and then $20 the next time if it's the same storm. Sheeeesh!

Right after he came today, Don had to go out and help Brian dig out of the pool parking lot. You see... my grown son thought it would be fun to go to that parking lot and have "fun" with his car. He got stuck in it right away and called home for help because he neglected to take a shovel! Even though the driveway had just been plowed, Don could not get his car up the hill, so he had to throw some builder's sand down for grip. He fell on his way back down the driveway - fortunately he is ok!

Right after I sat down here, I got a call to say that my cousin (55 years old) passed away last night after having been sick for 18 years after a botched up back surgery. He was rendered a paraplegic back then, and has had numerous medical conditions since. (huge lawsuit that took many many years to be settled finally in their favor.) It's been a long battle, and everyone is now at peace - he and his immediate family who have only known this way of life for so long.

So I ask the question that I've yet to get a solid answer to...
When does the fun start?!?

Sorry about cousin your Lynne.

....your storm is on it's way to us...

I see Juniegirl

I did pop in for a minute, but I didnt see you, Tamara sorry.

..and once again, I did not get any mail from you---I will give it 1 more week, then I will assume it has been lost & I will send my letter out to you, & we can begin all over again.

Sorry about that Carol....hopefully it will arrive when it's found~if it's lost.
