Good morning!!!!

[wngsprd]

31 and snow is ending after less than half an inch...going up to 38 and super windy.

Ron, I was also thinking of paperless with all the postal delays. Most of my things are paperless, but there are a few I really like to get on paper and save as tax records for a couple of years (instead of printing them myself). I recently received a document mailed in April. My wife received bills for handling her mom's affairs that were a month late. We're moving them over to paperless.

Rick, sounds like you had a very busy and productive day. I always sleep better after one.

Roasted coffee then fired up the splitter after 8 pulls yesterday, and got a load split and stacked. Don't plan to go back for more firewood with today's wind, so will find something else...guess I don't have an excuse for not starting taxes today.

Happy Birthday Mr. Bird...hope it's a special day.

I think our sub-zero temps are a tad late this winter. Usually we get about two weeks of well below zero every January and that usually comes after the January thaw, which so far hasn't happened. February can get a little nippy, too.

May the hands of time move quickly for you.

Thomas won't snow work take up most of the day?
Several inches or less about 3-4 hours,but if Mrs. helps good chance I'll get over time.

Thanks to all for the Birthday Wishes. And now a little update.

This second vaccine shot has sure been different. The shot itself was only a little pin prick with the needle, so I thought it was even less than the first shot. We got the shots just before 10 a.m. yesterday and the nurse did put a bandaid on there this time. Later in the day, a cousin asked me how it felt, and I told him it was almost nothing. So a little over 8 hours after the shot, I pulled the bandaid off; not a trace of blood on it, no pain from the shot, etc. So I went to bed early, and awoke after about 3 hours, went to the bathroom, and also found that my arm was incredibly sore. No sign of blood, bruises, swelling, etc.; nothing but most of that upper arm is so sore that I sure did not sleep much the rest of the night. I finally got up before 3 a.m. and went to my recliner in the living room. I think it is finally easing up a bit, and it doesn't hurt as long as it's still; not moving and not being touched by anything.

Margaret hasn't gotten up yet this morning, so I can't say for sure, but from the way she was flopping around in the bed, I'm guessing she's having the same problem

22F should be about the high for today and cloudy.

Enjoy the day all.

Good Morning!!!! 46F @ 4:15AM. Cloudy with periods of rain. High near 50F. Winds SSE at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 100%. Rainfall near a half an inch.
0.61" of rain yesterday, 0.32" so far this morning. Maybe another 0.75 today and tonight, pretty much constant rain. Won't see the sun again until Saturday, then more rain until next Wednesday when things begin to dry out again.

Used the last of the firewood in the garage yesterday, but I think I can delay swapping out the pallet until a break in the weather on Saturday.

Spent all day on the PG&E claim yesterday, now need to figure out how to get an estimate on restoring all the burned oak and manzanita. The trust has set up free legal advise, so I'll look into that today, too.

Soaked a big bag of kidney beans overnight, and am planning on red beans and rice for dinner, with LOTS of left overs.:licking:

Hang in there, gang, Friday's comin'!

Been good couple years no back to back sub below zero but instead temps been tad above normal and I'm not complaining.
February can be nasty weather month for us but least the day light getting longer.
