24°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 43° today.

Traffic in the area seems to be lighter than normal this week. Not sure what's up with that, but I don't hate it.

Wife just sent me a text message. She had a 09:30 appointment to get her oil changed at the Kia dealer, and they just told her it will be about an hour-and-a-half. Not sure why they bother calling it an appointment.

Funny you should mention the mower, RNG. I was just noting over the weekend that some of the grass has started to grow again during our recent stretch of mild weather, especially the onion grass.

Always had weeds growing in the paver cracks back when I had them

I keep a spray bottle with Round-Up in it handy just for that purpose.

Yep, we always called them snow birds too. We had a saying down in Carolina, “Dumb as a snow bird”, because you could walk up to bush they were in and literally touch them it’s a BB gun barrel. No sport in shooting them, even at 8 years old.

45-49 today, ended up with just over an inch of rain and high winds never developed here. Gusts to about 30-35 a couple of times.

Cardiologist says I’m doing fine and that I’ve lost a lot of weight, go back in six months.

We bought Roku for the old 55” TV, and the kitchen TV, and ordered two new sets with Roku built in. I’m turning in cable boxes today.
With Roku and a couple of cheap subscriptions I can replace everything we watch, and Locast gives me local channels. I’m getting more choices for $50 less.

Have a good day.

29F @ 04:30, headed up to a high of 32F.

Two inches of the white stuff on the ground here with light snow still coming down.

Supposed to taper off and end later this afternoon ... :thumbsup:

Now 2” of that stuff would really mess with my mowing.

How are you getting to locast? SmartTV or is Roku offering that now too?

Hard to stay on top of all the "cord cutter" options! LOL.

ken, it was the part time postie that complained to me.

Back from plowing and the aforementioned town run. We got about 4" so far.

Good morning to all! Low of 25, currently 45, but a continuous 25-30 mph wind with gusts to 45. Feels a lot colder.

Phil, nice looking walkway! Better than nice... more like fantastic!

Glad all you guys up in the NE and PA made it through the nasty weather... that was a lot of rain! Just think... it could have been snow!

I spent most of the day yesterday getting the Christmas decorations out of the garage loft and started putting up the lights. Unfortunately, two of the sets of lights (both the type that have multiple functions) only had half the bulbs working.... spent an hour and a half getting them working....
Then was able to get about half of the lights put up in place before it got too cold and dark. Despite the wind, I'm gonna hafta get the rest put up today... supposed to get snow tonight and tomorrow, highs only around 30.

I made a trip to Wally World this morning... at 6:15 am.... no line to get in.... only seniors. It was actually a decent shopping experience. I was able to get everything we needed, plus picked up some things for my son so he wouldn't have to wait over two hours in line again. By the time I came out at 7:15, there were two lines with about 40 people in each....

Need to run to the PO this afternoon, a few packages apparently don't fit into the local cluster boxes or there is not enough of them empty.... kind of a PIA to go wait in line there and make a 20 mile RT.... but better than having to go shopping in town for sure!

I have a bunch of the wood for the toy boxes all glued up, waiting to be planed, might have to wait until tomorrow.... still have to glue up 6 more wide planks

I am still procrastinating going out into the wind to do the lights.... I guess the light fairy won't come and do them for me.....

Everyone have a great day! Pics of Christmas lights to follow.....
