Bad weather to hit here at 1:00 or so today. Val thinks she may not go to school tomorrow. That would be nice, b/c of she did we would get to spend more time with her.
We drive by a few houses today, & I saw a real nice one...But DH will not be buying yet,so I just as well not look now.

We"ve been at Ginger"s and it"s freezing there too. We"re supposed to get rain tomorrow which will not be good. Sunny, your snow makes me claustrophobic.

The roof is done. The rain starting tomorrow night should really be a good test. We are expecting up to 5 inches. I am worried about the burn areas. They could be in danger from mudslides. I hope the things in place keep it in check.

Sheri, so sorry for your unusual weather, Sheri. So very glad that your roof is done, Tina. That is one less thing to worry about. Let it rain, right ? The freezing rain did not arrive. It did rain, so the roads may be slick. Valarie is hoping school is called off tomorrow. I am too. Then her Mom will not have to worry about her driving on the roads. I hope that you all stay safe and warm. I will say goodnight now.

Stay safe everyone It is minus -12*F this morning...it is slowly warming up. School has started back today....the kids were bored and ready to go back, it has been too cold for them to go outside. My gosh Tina...it really is 'feast or famine' isn't it? I pray your roof fix is a good one. Junie, enjoy looking at houses even if you are not buying right away. Sheri, does Ginger live in Florida?

The girls are still sleeping, so that gives me the opportunity to properly wake up.

"It doesn't rain in California, it pours" as the old song goes. Although it's not true, it seems like it. Especially after big fires. Good morning. Today I will go out and get milk and bread, etc. I hope your grandchildren wake happy to see grandma and grandpa, Carol. Keep warm, Sunny. And I hope everyone has a great Monday.

Good morning. It is raining hard off and on. And we are expecting thunderstorms today. My main leak was repaired. I've developed new ones. But we can sleep dry, so I am grateful. No, Sunny. I know I couldn't handle snow now. Or the cold either. I hope everyone has a great day.

Gracious Sunny. As a southerner I can't imagine that amount of snow. At my advanced age :) I don't even think I could adjust.
Is it your roof that's leaking Tina? Are you fixing things yourself or do you have help? I can't even get my Christmas tree apart by myself. It's 3 pieces that are connected by light cords and I can't get it apart. That's why it's still sitting in the living room.

Hello and goodnight all in one post. LOL
I hear even the South is having a cold snap. I really do feel for you if that is so. After all there are many of us who are more used to the co!d, and to my notion, the southern states are not.
So glad that you now have help with your house repairs, Tina. I am sure that helps you a lot.
Sunny, I am not interested in buying your house at all...But do you want to buy mine ?
G'night... Sweet Dreams.

Tina, roof leaks are awful. A new roof is #1 on our list this year....we have no choice. I got the shed roofs shoveled yesterday. I just got in from shoveling out the front door...it is never ending. I'd work less if I had a 'real' job.

He's pretty nice I guess but he didn't bring it up the stairs and put it in the attic. I had the ornaments off. All he did was take it apart - it's in 3 pieces and I'm too short to handle it. I thought he would bring it upstairs this morning but NOT. I had a time.

Five girlfriends is good, Sunny.
Good morning. I like Thursdays. A kind of mindless day to round out the week. I'll go out and pick up the weekend needs. We're to get more rain next week. So I'll want backups. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

Hi. I was busy and away Carol...the last 'elder' of our community died yesterday, he was 93. He was the last person from my grandparents generation...he also lived next door to me growing up. He never suffered so that is good. We are getting rain today, changing to freezing rain later in the day...we get a day or two of that every January. They are calling for a flash freeze tonight with a snow storm tomorrow. I plan to do all laundry today just in case of a power failure.

Laundry sounds good. Get it out of the way while you can, Sunny. I am sorry you lost a friend. Good morning. I had a good night's sleep. I never went out yesterday so today will be it for milk and bread etc. I hope all have a fabulous Friday.

I am sorry for e loss, Sunny. We were supposed to get the flash freezing here, Sunny, but it did not get that bad. I washed all of the clothes in the house here too.
I have come to the conclusion that we do not have enough underwea r in our house r, if my DD. and her family have the correct amount.
I am beginning to wear out......

Safe travels....stop and pick up those extra undies on the way It rained yesterday afternoon, it down-poured last night...it was strange to see. This morning the freezing rain has started and by lunch time we were told that a foot of snow should start to fall. You could literally put on skates and go down the road. Tina, we are finally getting news footage from Cali, I am keeping your family in my thoughts and prayers. Do you personally know people affected by the mud slides?

Not at this time. I know no one involved. It is sad and I pray for them. Good morning. Happy Saturday. This is my day to clean up a bit and get some of the junk out of my house. And maybe cook a little for the week ahead. I hope everyone has a great day.

Sounds like a plan Tina. I opened an 'office-in-a-box' I bought with part of my Xmas gift card. It is just a plastic container with cover that includes different file holders, file stickers, calculator, pens and such. It is awesome...I just spent the last three hours sorting out papers, junk and shoe boxes of receipts. I now have a file/receipt system contained all in one. What a great gift idea to give others I think We are getting ice pellets again.
