Oh, I am so sorry about those temps! Waaaay toooo cold!! Hoping it's much warmer there by now.
Hugs, Maria
Hi there. Its a bitterly cold morning here. Its -13F and feels like -29F. My husbands work truck didn't want to run right this morning so he was late getting to work. Not doing a whole lot this morning. Just staying warm. I do have the laundry going. Hopefully tomorrow won't be as cold. I'm ready for it to warm up. At least the sun is out. All that snow we were supposed to get didn't happen, I'm very glad. We got maybe a inch of snow on the ground. Take care my friend and have a good day. Cheryl
I feel so sorry for all the birds and animals that live outside. Everything is frozen solid. Where do birds, horses, etc. get a drink of water? There are so many birds in the trees and at the bird feeder. I am sending to everyone...
OK. I feel sorry for you and especially for myself. I am FREEZING! We lowered the temperature inside by 2 and I don't like it.
Yesterday was just awful in DFW. Ended up with a total of 136 cars and trucks in one crash, 30 people injured and 6 fatalities. That does not speak to any of the other wrecks. But today is a new day.
And yet, the Winter Fairie is not done with us yet. Hubby made it to his Glaucoma doctor and is heading back now. He will probably pick up bread since we are into setting records this February. We might get close or even break the over 200 hours below freezing record. And Monday is another front with snow showers due. Thank goodness it is President's Day, a holiday for some people and some schools. The good news is that the weekend starts in just a few hours. So...
As you probably guessed, we are staying in until at least Tuesday. Blessings & Hugs!
I feel your pain with all the cold and snow. Have had many consecutive days of cold and snow and am ready for 32 degrees and above to melt some of this snow away. Hang in there, you are not alone :) Hugs, Jackie
Busy week for me. Yesterday hubby and I started a project and 5 hours later we were at a stopping point, so we quit for the day. Today, Ole Man Winter surprised us 12-15 hours early. So we had to bring in plants, throw the plastic over some and cover others. Then we had to go to drop off our tax information and thanks to "illness in that area," for the first time ever, we couldn't wait while she did them, sign them, pay for them and be done. So who knows when we will hear from her and get our refund. After we picked up an order at the Vitamin Shoppe we came home with our WhatABurger taquitos. Several hours later, after researching Mac programs equivalent to Windows programs because some Windows programs don't work on iOS, I finally gave up and decided I had better get here to see what you have been doing.
Are you decorating for winter? Or has winter decorated for you already? I know that it will probably get us once or twice in the next 7-10 days. Do you ever feel like this?
I do believe this is how our area handles everything nowadays. Just don't forget our pets and feathered friends. Blessings & Hugs!
hi there, how was your week-end? it's been freezing here, don't think it's gotten past 20 since last friday. i am so ready for spring! hope you have a nice start to your week...warm hugs..mk
I'm with you, Cheryl. I don't like cold weather, either! We got a couple of inches of snow earlier today, which has now turned to slush and is to freeze tonight and it's to only be in the 30s tomorrow and windy! BOO!!! I am grateful for a warm house to live in and warm clothes to wear.
Hugs, Maria
Hi there. How are you doing? I'm doing good. Just not looking forward to this bitterly cold weather we will be getting. I think its already started as it cloudy and a little foggy and only 30F here right now. The rest of the week is only going to be in the low 20's and night in the teens. To cold for me. Hope you have a great Sunday and stay warm.
Well, the sun finally came out this afternoon and with that a slight warming, repeat, slight. I usually change my nails about every 3 weeks and I finally got that done late yesterday.
So now I'm officially ready for the Super Bowl. Oh no, I mean Valentine's Day. I have always painted my nails and used to make my own swirl colored nails to put on. Now I use ColorStreet! They just stick on and are already decorated but come plain too.
Thought this was a cute idea if anyone is looking for something to make with their grands. Could be made out of paper or felt.
Thanks for your friendship and enjoy every day as if it were Valentine's Day!
Guess who is heading to Texas? I really don't know how some of you survive the cold weather. Really don't know! We are 46, overcast, drizzing rain and it is miserable. And we have lows in the 20's coming for a 7-10 day stay. I love the 90's and am ready for late spring to get here. And I know some of you wonder how we survive our heat. So I'm here just to say
Last night my youngest granddaughter called me to share her exciting news. She has 4 chickens she has raised from baby chicks and just got her first 2 eggs. She will be 12 in 2 weeks. She loves all animals and is a pretty good Whisperer. She wants to be a Vet.
As you may know, I love taking pictures. This morning it was dark when I got up... so I had to wait for clouds to thin out in order to get the burning bush picture above. And even that was about 5 pictures. I love the way God paints the morning and evening sky.
And you have to be patient (not my strong suit) and keep watching. This was about 45 minutes later. I hope you enjoy my pictures. I never tire of taking and sharing them. My hubby says, "Yes, I've seen the moon before."
This week is flying by and Thursday is starting like yesterday left off, frustrating. I've been trying for over an hour to get NOTH page to load. Yesterday was the same, everything I tried took effort to accomplish.
Wishing you a very blessed day. Now I'm off to enjoy the beautiful weather as we are already 64 with 20 mph winds. Yes we will be in the mid 50's and 60's for the next 5 days before we get another freeze, hard freeze for us, for at least 5 days (20-25). Welcome to Texas weather and February.
Temp has hovered around 32 deg last 2 days and has been snowing some on and off. We are lucky, though, compared to others here on the east coast, as we only have a little bit left on the ground. Still, it is cloudy, cold, and windy - none of which I like! Still, am grateful for it could be so much worse.
Hugs, Maria
hi there. How is your Monday going? Mine is going good. Just doing some housework and then having a relaxing afternoon. Today and the next two days are going to get up in the 60's. That will be nice and then colder weather the rest of the week. I hope you have a good rest of your day my friend and take care. Cheryl
How is your week going? We have been having cool mornings but the days are nice. Got sheets on spare bed, plants watered, and birdseed in feeder. Backing up everything on second WD my passport after all I do have a few pictures.
And the sunrise was beautiful this morning!
I did finish a wonderful Christian Fiction book this morning by Julianne MacLean. And I am halfway through a Hallmark Signed, Sealed and Delivered movie from last night. I love feel good books and movies. Now I'm going to finish some chores, including cooking a late lunch, so I can finish my movie this evening. Enjoy your day and share your smile with someone. Blessings & Hugs coming to you from me.
Thanks so much for stopping by my page and leaving comments and keeping me up to date. About every 6 weeks, we have friends that come over on a Friday evening. Usually we get the guys to go pick up food after everyone arrives. But this Friday, Keith said he would fix lasagna if someone would bring salad and bread. DONE! Oh my, can he cook! We laughed so hard sitting around the table after dinner for about 4 hours telling tales on each other. Our adopted family, William and his parents, decided to spend the night. Actually, they spent 2 nights. What a wonderful long weekend. Now I am going to finish reading your comments.
Went out this morning while the sun is still shining, as it is to snow, rain, freeze, blow, etc. tomorrow through to Tuesday.
Wishing you a wonderful week - Hugs, Maria
Hello there. Its going to be a nice day here as long as the wind doesn't get up. Its supposed to get up to 65F here but we have some wind blowing and its cloudy. Not alot going on here. Just doing my housework and then going to do some fun stuff later on. Take care my friend and have a great weekend.
Thank you for that hug! Right back at ya my friend! Hope you have a pleasant weekend even if it is freezing were you are and I will try to do the same. Will probably be shoveling some more as I just heard the snow plows going down the street. Oh boy... Take care and stay warm. Hugs, Jackie
I really dislike freezing rain, because it is so dangerous! Take care!
Hugs, Maria
Hi there. Well its another start to anohter week. And this is a dreary and cold Monday here. We got rain last night and it thundered. Then I heard it raining early this morning and it was freezing rain. Its still on the trees too. And cloudy and only 32 F out there. So I have been in the house all day except to go get the mail and brrrr, was it cold. Not much else going on. Just having a lazy day and I did get my housework done. I'm ready for winter to be over. And its always like summer, a long season. Well take care my friend and have a good rest of your day.
It's to turn very cold here tomorrow, Friday, and Saturday and into next week. Can't wait for spring!
Hugs, Maria
Hi there. Hope you are having a good Tuesday. I layed down to take a nap and when I woke up it was snowing outside. Its not a heavy snow but it has covered the ground so far. Its a bitterly cold day here. Its only 27 and feels like 18 out and that little wind we have cuts right through you. Not mcuh else going on . Got laundry going in the dryer, think I will do some coloring today and sort through my markers. I bought some new ones so I need to go through the older ones and throw away the ones that are dryed out or out of ink. Take care my friend and have a good rest of your day.
