Good morning!
Happy Monday!
It's going to be sunny with a high of 35 degrees today. I'm hoping that some of this snow will start to melt. I don't have too much planned for today, I'll just be working on some chores around the house. I have a couple of errands to run but I think I'll put them off until tomorrow.
I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!
Cute pic!!!
Hope they have a great time at the concert!!! Safe travels!!Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!
What a cold Saturday we had...it even snowed a little bit early that morning! I woke Elizabeth up to tell her it was snowing, and she popped right out of bed to get dressed. Of course there was no accumulation, but she stood out in the cold, trying to catch flakes in her mouth...at 7am LOL!
Nancy and I finally had our date night...at home. The kids went to my mom's for supper and a movie, so Nancy and I ordered dinner in and watched a PPV movie on Amazon Prime. Great evening!
Today is the day Jacob and his buddy get to go to the rock concert in Atlanta. They're 18, but I'm going with them, anyway. Atlanta is a little too much for boys raised in the country! We'll spend the night and come home tomorrow.
I hope y'all have a great day!
Too funny about Elizabeth catching flakes at 7 am! Love it!
Awe - I can tell. Kind of like poor, mistreated Gracie. HA!She does! <3
Adrian said she had a rough day
So true!Never too early to countdown to the weekend. Almost time to go home soon...then can say 1 down 4 to go
Thanks, it was nice. And fast, like you said!
Thank you! We did. Just fast! Hope yours was nice too!
Glad you enjoyed your weekend
I skipped ahead to posts from today & I'm still having a hard time catching up! Maybe tonight I'll have a chance.
We don't have much snow left at all, but Gracie still finds enough to get a face full....
Crazy girl. And crazy how much green is still in our grass!!
Have a wonderful evening MMC! Hope all affected by the storm are getting dug out!!!

Re the problem of connecting to the forums on cellular networks: Jeff is having a busy workweek and hasn't been able to drill into the problem, but he thinks it may be storm related.

Have a great night, Holiday!
Thanks for letting us know, Merry.
I do know that I was having trouble a couple of days before I even mentioned it. I wanted to wait a day or two to see if it resolved itself before saying anything.
So I'd say I noticed it @ Wednesday of last week.
Thanks.
Hope you had a nice weekend, though it was snow-less!The extended forecast on accuweather doesn't look very promising for much snow at all for us this year. Bummer!
The weekend was alright. I did a whole lot of nothing on Sunday. Very lazy weekend overall. I blame the lack of snow.
I am upset with the weather this year. I keep a close eye on accuweather too. I think we have had a total of maybe 6 inches this year.
My next concern is that this summer will end up crazy hot. That will make me cry, I really do not like the heat. I need to move in with Santa!
Hope everyone is having a peaceful Monday.
Just wanted to ask you all if you would please say a prayer for Noah's girlfriend's grandmother? (Soon to be his fiance - I was just asked for grandma's ring to take with him to Montana, to propose atop of the highest point they can hike/camp to on horseback their last weekend there, which will also be their anniversary and there - he wants to ask her under the stars - no she has no clue).
Grandma is by no means 'elderly,' or feeble. Grandma is a US Airforce vet and a riot. I drove over to pick up Noah from her house last week, which was my first time meeting her in person. She was hysterical and I loved that she still had Christmas wreaths on her door and inside two large display cases filled with Christmas villages and Santas. Yes I wanted to be her best friend right then and there.
Over Thanksgiving she went to the VA in Tallahassee, because she'd been having headaches that wouldn't stop. After a CT and a biopsy they determined she has a benign cyst that grew around the spinal cord at the base of her skull. They felt the best course of action was to operate after the 1st of the year to remove it, but to completely remove every trace, they would have to go into the spinal column, remove two vertebrae and replace them, otherwise the cyst could grow back. So her option was several surgeries over years to continually remove it, or this big invasive procedure, once. She opted for the big one.
Today was her surgery date. Dana just texted me that Dot is being moved to recovery now. In about a week, she can come back home, Dana will be staying with her. She'll have to be in a jaw and shoulder harness which positions her head and holds it isolated and still for 3 months. She was telling me about the surgery when I was picking up Noah that night. She said, "It's fine - you get through it, but the thing that really worries me - What has me up pacing the floor at night, what I'm most frightened of - I have to eat my daughter's cooking for three months." Then she shuddered. ROFL
Dana said, "Nanna don't worry - I'm sure if you ask nicely, I might be able to get my boyfriend's lovely mom to either teach me how to cook, or possibly make some meals to bring to you." ROFL
Hoping she heals quickly. Personally that would drive me nuts being immobilized for 3 months.
