Good morning my Christmas friends,

I had a really nice day yesterday at work (we had a pot luck) and it was very good and fun. Everything was great until I got home. I walked in the front door and my wife was standing there with all the mail I had stuck in the mailbox at 5:30am for the postman to pick up that day, all torn open and all the checks that I had written were stolen out of them. There were birthday cards for my nephew in there, bills, and prescriptions. Who ever did it, was not interested in them, just the personal checks. So, I filed a police report, called on bank last night to stop payment on a check (which cost me $35.00 dollars to do so). And today I have to call or go to another bank to stop payment on those checks...:-?

I am peeeeed-off beyond all means...If I could have gotten my hands on the little buggers that did that, I would probably be in jail myself right now. Now, I cannot ever put any more mail in my mailbox for the postman to pick up. Come to find out late last night from a neighbor, the very same thing happened to some people in an adjacent community near-by to us last week, and their checks that they wrote to utility companies were tampered with/ altered and cashed at a Wells Fargo in Virginia. Great!!!!

It's always something isn't it??? It's probably someone that doesn't believe in Christmas either.... two words come to mind...Smith & Wesson~

That is simply awful! I hope that things go smooth as you take care of all the things you need to cancel, etc.

Good Morning MMC!!!!!! It's going to start cooling down here today too and it looks like we have a slight chance of rain. Then the cold really arrives this weekend with the high sunday only being in the 20's. It was a long night here. Mom had been slowly getting back to normal all day yesterday but took a turn for the worse around 9 last night. It was like she was starting to have another attack. She refused to go back to the ER though. So I made her take her anti clot med and some aspirin and just watched her all night. She never got any worse and thankfully this morning she is pretty much back to normal. She just still has a bit of a headache. I'm exhausted though because I didn't sleep at all. So nothing big on the agenda for me today. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm glad your mom is better today - I pray she continues to improve. I hope you get to take a nap today and that you are having an even GREATER day!!! {{{HUGS}}}

Good evening, MMC!

I hope this finds everyone well!

Busy day again - I am exhausted! It is most definitely going to be an early night this evening.

MERRY dreams!

Thanks, Meceka!!! She is doing pretty good tonight. Almost completely back to normal.

I didn't get to sleep any though. She went ahead and made an appointment with her family doctor this afternoon, so I had to take her to it. They put her back on a baby aspirin with the anti clot and are trying to get her into a new neuro since she doesn't like the other one she has been seeing.

Okay, I admit it, I had some flowers to make for my aunt's birthday cake tomorrow and didn't think that you would miss it. Sorry, I'll bring it back.

3:50 PM EST Friday 22 November 2013
Snow squall watch for
Stratford - Mitchell - Southern Perth County continued

Snow squalls developing Saturday morning.

An Arctic cold front will sweep through Southern Ontario early Saturday morning. In the wake of this front, brisk northwesterly winds over the open water of the Great Lakes will result in the development of snow squalls southeast of Lake Huron and Georgian Bay. Multiple snow squall bands are forecast to develop Saturday morning. As winds become more northwesterly by Saturday evening, single bands are expected to develop off Lake Huron from Strathroy to London and off Georgian Bay from Barrie and Collingwood to Innisfil. The heaviest squalls could produce snowfall amounts of 15 to 30 cm per 12 hours. Snow squalls are expected to last through Sunday before tapering off.

Visibilities near zero are possible in snow squalls and blowing snow and hazardous driving conditions are expected.

We have been busy all day. Time to relax and watch TV. There are several posts I want to remark to, but I will try to do it tomorrow. Have a great evening, everyone! TTYT
