around here they wait until the morning to decide if school buses will go out or not.
yes, you have to be careful, overdoing it can leave you with a sore knee again.
Penny stands at the door and thinks we are all insane for going out there.
Toby is doing good. We've only had one incident: my son was petting him and accidentally touched a sore and Toby snapped at him out of instinct. My son was crushed! It hurt his feelings more than it hurt is finger. They are buddies again though.
My son is gentle with him and would never be rough with an animal (he has a huge heart for all fur kids), but he accidentally touched that sore and Toby just acted out of instinct. I felt bad for Caden...poor guy took it hard.
Hey! Sorry it took me so long to reply but I didn't see ya there for a second lol. I am almost halfway through my MBA program with Liberty University online. I'll be taking Statistics for two months starting next Monday. Not easy but I am so hoping it's worth it in the end!:yahoo:
winter camping is quite popular around here, not nearly as bad as it sounds!

They usually do here too but they know it's going to be -20 again tomorrow morning so it's just not safe for the kids to be out at the bus stops. Plus the mayor asked them all to close and it seems like they listen to him more than most of the businesses do.
it does not have to be winter for that, my friend did that in the summer last year.

Well if you wanted to shop at the mall, you had better hurry!! Someone must have had a talk with the people in charge of Simon because they are all closing now at 2. I feel bad for the workers that had to brave the elements to go in for those 2 hours.

Poor Caden. Like you said, it was out of instinct that Toby reacted. Glad they are already best buds again! They are so sweet together.
Are Happy & Holly liking Toby, too?

I could send you some snow, have more than we need14 degrees today and nothing more than a spit of snow. By the time we get more precipitation this week it will be warmed up (50s) and raining.....grrrrr. I'm not complaining too much though; at least the cold is bearable here. My family, pets, and neighbors are all safe and sound and warm. And on that note I'll be enjoying my hot chocolate now..and maybe a nap
Stay warm everyone!!
Holly loves playing with him! She is so reserved and this is the first time we've really seen her play like this...it's great. They are close in size, except poor Holly doesn't have any legs (she is short!)
Happy is being a big pouty baby.
They've lived there for nearly 8 years and this has always been the case. Their house hasn't had heat or air since the 1st year. We bought them window units a few years ago for AC, but we all know AC is really more of a luxury. Heat on the other hand, that's a different matter. Last year we bought them a room unit heater, but this year a few of their other ones went out.
Her DH is a pastor at a local church, but it's a small church so not a full time salary. The church members gave him a cash Christmas gift with which they went immediately to the store and bought space heaters. She is keeping as many doors closed as possible to contain the heat and her DH put in all new weather stripping and seals.
She's looked into the matter legally, but their area laws are different regarding landlords. I said the same thing, "He can't do that!!" My response is based on my areas laws. Unfortunately - she doesn't have much recourse. The pastor of the church where she works as a secretary has told her the same thing - not much she can do. He was a DA in Tulsa and his wife is currently a DA in Ft. Smith, AK, so I guess they would know for sure. Heavener is right on the border of OK and AK.
She's also leary of making trouble for the landlord as their options for relocating are limited at this time. They're trying to hold out for another two years where they are till her DH is eligible for his maximum draw on retirement from his pension.
I truly appreciate everyone's kind thoughts, prayers and suggestions!

is there someone in the church who would be able to fix it?

That is wonderful for Holly!! And Toby!
Poor Happy =] Give him an extra hug for us!

We will. Happy gets plenty of hugs but they are never enough for his liking. He's a big 50 pound baby!
ok, everyone in this deep freeze, Lear jet on the way...we are all going to visit Virgina in Australia where it is nice and hot!
wind chill tonight will bring temperatures down to -38c (-36f)...will not be turning down the furnace tonight!
