Snow, Then Rain, Then Melting, Then Possible Flooding, My Goodness!

It finally warmed up in my valley! The melting will continue throughout the night but it might not bode well. The problem will be flooding in the area! I am not too worried about it for myself but those along the Boise River may experience flooding! And, depending upon the drains in the city it... Sign in to see full entry.

The snow continues to fall and the National Guard is out...

The snow continues to fall and the National Guard is out to help clear the roads and side streets. We got at least three more inches of snow today with more on the way! If my covered patio makes it will be a minor miracle! I am at a loss as to what to do about it right now! I am going to try to get... Sign in to see full entry.

I Can’t Get Over How Cold It’s Been, Below Zero Is Not My Muse, LOL!

Lord have mercy it’s cold outside. Thankfully it is going to start warming up tomorrow but we are under a severe winter storm warning for the weekend. We could get anywhere from 6-12 inches over the weekend. It’s making me very nervous because the build up on my covered patio is getting more and... Sign in to see full entry.

The Aftermath In My Little Area Of Boise!

My son came over last night and shoveled my driveway and sidewalk. He put salt everywhere, so much so that I am dreading it because I continue to clean salt up at the front door! I know it’s better than slipping and have a bad fall, especially by a neighbor who might be sue happy. LOL! My driveway... Sign in to see full entry.

LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW…

My son sent me a text this morning inquiring if I still needed my sidewalk shoveled! I said I certainly did. It’s been so cold I haven’t considered picking up a shovel, even at the risk of getting fined since it hadn’t been done since the snow began to fall. My neighbor shovels my driveway and I...

Nothing Was Planned But I Was Very Busy And Managed A Delivery Too!

Not the kind of delivery one may presume but it was a bed that was delivered to my house! It was courtesy of my daughter and son-in-law. My daughter decided she didn’t want her queen bed any longer. She has hardly slept in so I took it for my guest bedroom. I had a new bed in it but it was a twin... Sign in to see full entry.

Keep Telling Myself To Hold My Tongue, It’s Not Easy!

For a couple of years I have been very frustrated with my SIL’s mother! Jes and Chris bought an older home in 2014. I wasn’t excited about because I knew if they waited a little longer they could get something newer. But, it wasn’t my money so I supported their decision. It made them happy and at...

Not Much Time For Anything But Getting Things Ready For Tonight!

I made bread bowl last night and two of them did not turn out well. So, today I made two more but it’s a process and I’ll have them done about an hour before the festivities begin! Other than that everything has gone very well. My brother loves spicy chili and I hope today I finally get one hot... Sign in to see full entry.

4 Quick Errands Took 4 Hours, And Most Of It Not At The Stores!

Jessica and I had today planned to pick up the last minute things needed for Christmas Eve and Christmas day dinner. The snow began shortly after I got to her house. She thought she was done with opening gifts on day 13, but I had her fooled big time. I didn’t mention that I was waiting on my final... Sign in to see full entry.
