Snow is on its way.

1-2 inches of slush!

Clouds sure are dark and dreary here.

Think pillow talk is calling me!

Diana, I'm so glad to hear from you. I was about to rent a snow cat and head up the mountains looking for you, a la "The Shining"! (Now there's a movie that scared the heck out of me.) Stay where you are and break out that secret stash of chocolate you've been saving. ;-) Glad to hear that you are safe and warm. Steven, I'm so glad you are safe, as well. I have seen some horrific video from the SF area, really frightening stuff. I'm glad that you have power and have come through this relatively unscathed. I hope that the worst is over. Edna, I hope all is well with you and your family, and that you will be able to check in soon. To all CA gardeners, no heroic garden rescues! Let it all be crushed, blown away or whatever. We can rally together here and replace everything that you lose. We can't replace YOU! Marilyn

Uh oh, looks like Don took a look at the high pressure dome and croaked. 112s and 113s forecasted here next week. We just THOUGHT it could not get worse. And with water restrictions, things are not looking bright here in north Texas. I'm looking into one of those light-colored, flowing robes, the latest in desert-wear...

SS may be headed our way...

Thanks, ladies, for some GREAT suggestions! Not sure if he still has the keys - could have thought we'd have sold it by now, so pitched or lost them. I agree - not one cent to him. I'm not opposed to the bus ticket home. Maybe the bf can take the dog down, act as though he kept it, then we can get her back later. Anyway, asst. gave him $400 last week or whenever I posted about his first contact after so long. If the bf leaves Atlanta, there's no way SS will stay, so I'm betting on him coming back. Part of me is relieved and I want to throw my arms around him and welcome him home. The other part of me is very angry that he has put us through all of this - not even the $, just the way I thought he had come in harm's way - the multiple times we drove to Orlando to check w/ the police, putting them on a BOLO (be on the lookout for), then finally the missing persons. I want to scream at his fear of working! Is all of this drama and uncertainty really WORTH you not joining the working world? He'll be 27 this Fall - it's a real shame that avoiding any real work all of his life has him coming to this - hiding out w/ bf so bf's parent's don't know about him - not having two cents to rub together to get from GA-FL. Quitting college/failing out a couple of hours short of his Bachelor's. Sheesh. Dana

What's this, cynic - you brought tinder ... but no matches/(lighter?)? Yesterday, I visited the snowmobile-accident-confined landlord in the hospital, then went to United Way to work on this year's list of charities that my tax-free-capitaI-gain-stock-when-sold-to-support-a-charity is to assist. Then came to this city library till I'd planned to visit my son ... ... visiting the bathroom on arrival and, after my two-hour limit on the city's computer ... ... again when I stood to leave. On becoming aware that my bag was no longer with me ...pretty sure I didn't pick up my bag n the bathroom at the time of the second visit. Returning today ... no report of a bag turned in. Didn't take it in to son's place, or to a store or two I visited. Did someone pinch it out of the car? Whatever ... the stuff in it is no longer available. Guess I'll have to start out my accumulate my (bag-carried) stash of survival stuff all over again. Wait a minute - my bank book was in there, too! (Rarely-used credit card ... in wallet in my pocket). Oh, well!!!! ole joyful ... most of the time.

They are calling for some of the white stuff here, too, sometime tomorrow. I'll believe it when I see it. The kids will be excited, they rarely see snow.

News just now said 2-4 inches, and THEN turning to slush tomorrow afternoon.

Haven't seen a flake in years!

None yet in Tupelo, but relatives in Senatobia MS and Memphis say the ground is covered there. So far it is just misting rain here. I am going to go make chicken soup just in case. Last I heard we are supposed to have an inch or two later tonight. Of course my daffodils are just blooming.

Gosh, some of you southern people have requested some of the snow we northerners get. Sounds like it's happening. Our weatherman just said we weren't going to get any this time except for a few of the more southern counties getting flurries. Enjoy your snow and I'll enjoy my precip-free weekend.

We are waiting on something here - could be some accumulation but not sure. They always say, "depends on the track". It's sleeting outside now. Then it will stop during the day tomorrow. It will start snowing again tomorrow night, and continue until Monday morning. I love snow, but if I have to go to work after shoveling my driveway, it can stay away. It is pretty though.

Predictions here call for upwards of 14 inches of the white stuff. Hurray! I finally get to use my snow blower that I bought 5 years ago and has sat in the garage since.

Originally from MI, so I don't mind the white stuff - just the people who don't know, or don't care, how to drive in it and act like their brains are in their butts.

Glenda I got a chuckle when I read your comment " I haven't seen a flake in years".... I see them everyday even when it's not snowing...if you get my drift. LOL

tee hee, gemini!

Well, the skies are blue, streets are clear, snow melted off trees, I can see the horizon, now, but I'm IN AND NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

Good day to get my income tax stuff together, for Thursday meeting.

Finally started snowing after midnight here...this morning the ground was covered and looked beautiful. It was all gone by noon! That's the usual way here. Some areas north of us got up to a foot of the stuff, and I'm sure more fell south of us.
