Thanks Ryan!! Hope you have a good week to!!

Hello everyone. Well, area schools are closed because we got a whole inch of snow!!!! :) maybe more but it melts quick. Us Oklahomans shut down at a hint of ice. :) we just aren't used to it as our winters are pretty short. I found this chart that shows our seasons around these parts pretty accurately:


:)

Have a great day everyone!

Love the weather chart! cheesy Stay safe!
 
Good morning MMC! We made it back! cheesy I have missed you all!! I'm probably not even going to try to catch up on everything I missed - I can only imagine how many pages of posts that is! :lol: But I do hope all is well with all of you!! xx

We had a great vacation, Gracie had a great vacation & of course ~ it's always good to be home. It didn't have to be THIS cold when we got home, but whatdayado??

My Dad is back in the hospital. He has MRSA! :( He fell once while we were gone & by Sunday he was in so much pain they took him by squad b/c we couldn't transport him comfortably. From there they sent him to ICU at a bigger hospital, but Monday morning they transferred him to a regular, non ICU room. He was in quite a bit of pain yesterday. I was up there with Mom most of the day yesterday, until my brother came. Then my other sis took his spot staying until after 9pm last night. And yet another sis was up there by 6am this morning & she said he was looking a lot better, he had a good nights sleep, he didn't have pain & hadn't had morphine since 8pm last night. So hopefully he is on the right track now. Still waiting to see the surgeon. He should be in today! My SIL is taking Mom up this afternoon & my sis & I are heading up after work. They are looking to transfer him to rehab when he leaves the hospital so hopefully they can get him up & walking!!

On a lighter note - here are some pics -

Gracies Vacation:


View from our balcony:


View when we got home:


I have to tell ya - Gracie was a hero while we were gone... at 2:30am on Wed she was barking & barking -for 45 minutes - wouldn’t stop until Mark got out of bed. Then he heard another dog barking & he thought “Where is that coming from” So he turned on the outside lights & opened his blinds, only to see 2 Coyotes had a lost dog trapped up by their house. The Coyotes were 4 ft. from the dog. When he turned on the lights it scared them away! So he went out & got the dog & brought it in & fed it & gave it some water. The owner was several miles away - he said the Coyotes had been running her for awhile - she was tired & scared. Poor thing!! It ended up being a veterinarians dog. Good girl Gracie! The dog she "saved" is the black & white dog in the collage of pictures.

Have a great day MMC!


Wow! I'm sorry your dad's been having such a difficult time, but it sounds like he's on the right track.

Good Tuesday morning, my Christmas friends!

Another yucky day down here. Crown is above the freezing rain line, but we're below it in the rain belt. That's ok. It'll give me more opportunity to polish the engine chrome!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy


Good afternoon, Brad!
Hope you're having a great day, too!

How are Lulu & Mrs. Hilda?

Praying for them~

Good Morning, MMC!!!!! I bet you can guess what I'm going to say next, Yep, it's cold!!! In fact, we got down to -6 this morning. We have warmed up a little though and currently sit at -3. If the weather people are right, we should actually reach 20 this afternoon. Since I have stayed holed up at home for the last week, I have a lot of errands to run. So I'm going to wait until we hit 0 then head out. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!


Stay warm!!!!
Good luck with your errands today =]

Good morning,



Heading to work soon, long day of getting ready for and then taking inventory.

I am watching a very interesting documentary called "Of Miracle and Men." It is from the view of the Soviet hockey team that lost to the USA in the 1980 Olympics. I won't be able to finish it before I leave but wow what a team they had, I see why it was called Miracle On Ice now.





I hope you all have a great day, I'll be back tonight.


Good afternoon, buddy~
Hope the inventory is going well!!

Good afternoon, friends!!

We've had a crazy weather day so far! A warm up, 40 degrees warmer than yesterday at this time! Earlier a white out with strong winds, now sunshine! Go figure. Winter in Wisconsin ! One extreme to the other.

Thinking of you all~

Enjoy the rest of your day!

That's wonderful! I'm happy for you both, enjoy the togetherness time...

I also wanted to of wished you good luck for your first day at work, but sigh...

I could not get here to do so, because I have been assigned a new project and all of the field survey/ investigation work, it is all to be done in the evening/ overnight shift. I'm all screwed up, (my internal clock that is), so I will be here only when the opportunity allows for me to so over the remainder of the week.

Soooooo, here is my belated good luck, best wishes and wishing you great success with your new job. I hope that it turns out to be everything that you hoped that it would be....

Good evening!

I do believe it is even colder out than the last time I posted which seems ever so long ago. All is well here. I am a right busy bee of late. Fun, but I do miss all of you.

Be safe and warm, dear friends! Praying for blessings for all of you! {{{HUGS}}}


Hey there Meceka, it's good to hear from you and to know that everything is well. We miss you as much as you miss us. Please take care, stay safe and warm and hopefully, soon, things will slow down just a bit, to allow for you to spend some of that extra time with us!
 
Wow! I'm sorry your dad's been having such a difficult time, but it sounds like he's on the right track.

I'm glad you had a great vacations! And congrats to Gracie! What a good girl! cheesy


Hopefully he stays on the right track! Thanks Brad!!! :smile:

How are Lulu & Mrs. Hilda doing? I feel I've missed out while I was gone!
