Good morning and Happy Monday!
The temperatures will be dropping a bit over the next couples of days and we are expecting a wintry mix over night.
Typical day for me, I have chores to do and errands to run. I am also bringing Maggie to the specialist later this afternoon. I need to go to her veterinarians office this morning to sign out her X-rays and test results to show the specialist. I hope we can get some answers, she was up coughing a lot last night. I feel bad for her and I am exhausted from lack of sleep. Wish us luck!
I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

I hope they can figure out why she coughs so often soon.

Last night, I was in the middle of reading the posts and watching the weather and the dish goes black. The rain stopped and it got earily quiet. All of the sudden, the tornado warning on my phone started going off, so we started getting shoes on and getting ready to go to the school. Three minutes later, the hardest rain I've seen in five years started and the town tornado sirens started blaring....

Talk about scared.

In the past, I would go out and watch the weather....now with Bambina, I got really nervous and uptight. All passed about 20 minutes later and we are good, but it was a little nerve-wrecking here. There was rotation about 8 miles east of town. As a general rule everyone in the community is aware of, the sirens sound when a tornado is in a 15 mile radius of our town.

All good. Just a lot of rain and high winds.

Glad you guys stayed safe! That must have been scary.

Thanks for the CIJ update, Made!!!!!

Just went through the Hallmark Dreambook. I could literally spend a fortune. I think I might need 10 more trees in my house if I keep buying ornaments, lol!

That sounds like a good idea, 10 trees!!!

Scary!!! Glad you guys are okay!!!!

I've gotten better about staying in and not going out in it since the lighting hit right out in front of my front door last year.

It's kind of died off here right now. There have been some reports of freezing rain around town but thankfully we haven't had any of it around here.

I have a prayer request please - my brother in law went in for a heart cath this morning & now he is next in line for the next available operating room! His main artery is 95% blocked! They said it's the kind where you're alive one minute, dead the next. So glad he went in to get checked, but UGH, I hate it! My sis is very upset (obviously) but their 2 kids are on their way to the hospital, my niece should be there soon.

He is in my thoughts!!!
