one week from today supposed to be balmy and in the 50's. But until then feels like Northern Canada has come for a visit.
I'll keep an eye out for any moose...

Lou, what crummy news, very sorry. A lot of this stuff seems to happen over the holidays.
Wishing your family strength, words are never adequate

Since my last post we've gotten 1/2", not worth the electric (block heater) nor the fuel to plow that. So total since last plowing 2".
Wunderground is still saying that we will have 12" by 25 December at 1 A.M. 30 and headed to 34°F. Wind ENE 15 gusting to 25 mph.
Last winter whenever Environment Canada forecasted 10 cm we got 10". Maybe this year they can get it closer to their truth.

You guys that are getting the really crappy stuff, stay safe and try to stay warm.

Good morning. Nice balmy 1° outside with a 30 mile an hour wind It was actually painful taking the pooch out this morning.

Gotta go warm the truck up in a few and run to Sam's club and Wally World. Need to pick up some last-minute supplies for this weekend.

Got a pot luck breakfast at my son's house Xmas morning. Then a relaxing afternoon and evening at home with the wife. Might invite a couple friend over, depending on what they have going on. But we usually keep it pretty low-key and dont go anywhere.

Work gave all the employees a meal option from Omaha steaks. So far, the past couple of years that they have done this, I've been sorely disappointed with what I've received.

The first year was a filet mignon. That was decent. But the burgers, dogs, and pork chops were horrible.

Tried the spiral cut ham last year. That wasn't too bad, but I also made up a maple glaze for it.

This year, they added a beef tenderloin option. So I figured I would try that one. I'll get it thawed, and depending on how I feel, I may fire up and cook that on the smoker.

Good morning from the Eastern Shore of VA,
Presently it is 54F here, sunshine with winds blowing mid-20's mph with gusts to the mid-30's. Forecast to be 11F by sundown.

Sipping coffee now, breakfast about to be served, then it will be time to go survey the property and see what branches/trees have come down in the night. Last time we had winds like this a pine tree came down across the driveway and there was no way in/out until I removed it.

Sorted out some of the boxes left from the move, still have more to go.... where do they all come from?????

Spent most of yesterday researching log spitters and floor coatings for my new shop.

Planning on a quiet day doing last minute Christmas prep.

Lets all be careful out there.

Good Morning
It’s 46, will be below freezing by noon, in the teens by 4 and single digits by morning. Still raining, might turn to snow before it stops as the temps plunge. We got a total of 1.66 inches so far.

Yesterday was a busy day, my daughter moved closer to us, I helped with a few chores in her new house while monitoring the voyage of our puppy north from Wilmington, NC. I feel bad for her vet that brought her up, their drive was over 12 hours in that miserable weather. But she is here!

Did pretty well for her first night away from her family. But I’m reminded of how much work I have ahead of me!

Not much planned for today, I’ve got to dig out some of the old kiddie gates to corral her, and figure out how to fence off the Christmas tree.
