'morning, Folks! Looks like I can safely start this thread without fear of somebody else doing the same thing at the same time. I'm here alone (almost). Just me and one anonymous member (they can't post when they're hidden, can they?) It was 2 degrees when I got up! Coldest day of 2006 so far. It's also getting light out before 6am, so that makes 2 degrees seem not so bad. is on, but I have resisted the temptation to make bagels until after I talk to the doc about glucose. One 11 am appointment today, and then I will plant my tail in fromt of the computer again. But I got stuff done over the weekend! Yawl have a good day, JM |

Fresh snow. I can hardly see across the road it is snowing so heavy. Our weather -12°C Overcast. Light snow and ice fog. Well I best get dressed and go and shovel the sidewalk before I get ready for work. JohnM I will check back later to see how the results were. Have a good day everyone. |

I resemble that remark.... ....and the more I plant it, the more it....well, never mind. Let's just say, I am not losing winter weight as fast as I would like.Bright and sunny here and very cold but not the coldest we've had. 12* at 6 am. But windy, which makes it much worse. My sister was up, coffee and two big pieces of pie (apple and blueberry) and is gone; she had to have her car in Madison by 8:30 for an oil change. I should be doing the same thing for the camper soon, but will wait a few days and hope it gets a bit warmer. I miss the beautiful waiting room at Sauer's GMC in Indiana; warm, quiet, with a little TV, a fish tank, and lots of comfortable chairs. Still, I prefer my vancamper to my old Caddy; would not think of trading. (Well, maybe for a Winnie View...:drool:) Lazy day today; I am ready for it! Going tomorrow to Rhode Island to help Rosalind; she has her lumpectomy later today and she'll need someone there. |

Good Morning all. Really got cold last night again 22 degrees I think, but a beautiful, sunny morning. JohnM, keep us posted on the results, will be thinking of you today. The coffee was great, nice and strong the way I like it. Karen, keep warm. Heather, didn't realize Rosalind had to have a lumpectomy, I'm sure having you there tomorrow will be nice for her. Let us know how's she's doing. You deserve to sit back and relax today, entertaining is a lot of work, you had a busy day cooking and all that. Hoping to hear results from Francis's tests today, it may be too early, I know he's anxious along with me. Happy Monday. |

Goodmorning from Mississippi....Its supposed to be warmer here today, but I dont know when the warmth will be here.. Its still cold this am, but the sun is shining brightly outside.. Seems this has been the coldest, longest winter i can remember in years, but i think i say that every year, im not a winter person. I like to be outside working in the garden too much..But anyway, Ill wait for spring along with the rest of you.. I hope all of you have a wonderful day, and to those waiting on test results, you will be in my prayers.. Everyone keep your chin up and keep on smiling...Life is wonderful.. Of course we all have bumps along the way, but every cloud has a silver lining...Just remember I told you so......lol |

Good morning everyone! Gonna be another nice day here.
We do have a 40% chance of getting some of that rain that is currently in CA. Possibly up to one whole inch!
At least it will only start tomorrow, and I'm working, so not interferring with pool time. JM, good luck on those tests, and Heather, keeping you and Rosalind in my .Pat, if you can get glimpses of the wifi there, one of those antenna's would do wonders for you...........
Have a great day all! |

John, due to the butterfly effect, I knew someone was going to get colder weather when I finally found my warmth. Sorry about that. Karen, you are supposed to have snow. That's why y'allins win so many gold medals in the winter Olympics. I even switched the sat over to the tv to watch a little of it. Jackie, there is a 20% chance of rain here in the desert. There is an actual cloud in the sky. Okay, so it is a tiny cloud, but it is a cloud, LOL. Patticake, yes the weather is strange this year. I would think that it might have something to do with global warming (yes, cold is one of the effects) but our esteemed president faith based science says there is no such thing. And you know when it comes to science, I always have to trust the politicians. Heather and Chrissy, health concerns hit really hard sometimes, especially when it is someone you love. Heather, what is a Winnie View? |

Well, looks like I got my wish over the weekend ("warm up"). Winter broke off; yesterday was mild enough to see bits of meltwater here and there and today is bright, sunny and + 8 degrees, before 11:00! Predictions are simliar for a couple days, then a bit cooler, but still above freezing (from +3 to + 7 the rest of the week). Ah-h-h-h!

Jackie, I'm just over the border from Arizona. I'm in the Mojave National Preserve. You really cannot miss the place. 1.6 million acres is difficult to miss. you go down this fire road and just keep driving. It is a dirt road, of course. So, you drive and drive and drive, and then you hang a left. You can't miss me. What shall I cook for you? |

Doc, Winnebago View I saw one at the RV show in Springfield. Just the right size for me to go full-timing; not too big, not too small, and a beautiful enclosed bath with a shower! I fell in love. Starting price, however, is $80K.... I had a trip to the doctor this morning myself; back pain been going on for too long (3 days). Having a cat scan later this week; he thinks I have a kidney thing going on. What; is there some sort of conspiracy going on? Let's bag the Campfire people? But I feel fine otherwise. I'm stilll going to Ros' tomorrow.

Yeah, that's what this place needs, a resident doc.... Real pain to have to go in just to talk. Would be so much faster and cheaper to get medical advice right here! Guess I put my 11 O'clock and doc in the same paragraph....oops, wasn't the same thing. I don't have the appointment scheduled with the doc yet. I like to double up appoiintmenss, either 2 of mine, or mine and somebody elses. I'm about to go check on that now. It turned out to be a nice day, not warm, but nice. I don't think I'd like to live in a place where the first signs of spring include +8 as a warming trend, but then again, folks down south probably say the same about here--+20 at 3 PM. L8er, JM |
