A lot warmer today at 35 but just to keep me from smiling, the forecast for Friday through Monday is back in the single digits for highs and below zero virtually every night. My dogs want me to go out and play "Throw the Stick" with them. The game is endless fun for them. After the first 500 times,... Sign in to see full entry.

I was up later on the Internet later than I thought I would be, but I got a lot of research done for a story I am working to work on in a month or so. I never even realized that it was almost midnight when I finished up, but I'm glad I did. I don't know why, but I just started singing Jimmy... Sign in to see full entry.
I think my morning anger motivated me a lot more than I thought it might. I got a lot done and am actually looking at laying back early. I've already played my Twitter games and added about 1800 words to one of my stories and that is enough. I'm just four or five from having 600 'good' followers. I... Sign in to see full entry.
I think I've mentioned here that I shut my cell phone off ~about~ nine PM every night so I can write/relax/think as necessary. I usually turn it on about 11AM or so for the same reason. All my life, I've lived at the beck and call of others and I no longer wish to do that. If someone needs to... Sign in to see full entry.

Quite the day. I had to wait for someone to wander over and plow my driveway. I had three guys try to plow it out, but they couldn't touch it. Finally got a young man in with a big V-plow and he broke it all open. I didn't need to go anywhere, I just wanted to go check my mail. If the weather holds... Sign in to see full entry.
Regret Is A Terrible Emotion
A decided warming is in the air. Oh, it isn't 75 or anything goofy, but at 9AM EST, it was 25 and I can handle that. The dogs went outside to the fenced in yard an hour ago and all I have heard from them back there is the joyful barking and calling they do when they are happy and are 'pursuing each...

Thoughts For A Snowy Night
I got some stuff done that needed to be done. There was only a couple loads of laundry and I spent about seven minutes washing any and all dishes, and ran a quick vacuum through the place. The dogs weren't all that appreciative of the vacuum, but they are the ones who make the messes! The snow is... Sign in to see full entry.
Was That Snow? I'm Not Sure, It Went By Too Fast!
I was supposed to be heading down state this morning, but I woke up to an intense snow storm and weather advisories not to travel the very roads I would have to use to get to the bridge. Soooooooooooo. I'm sitting home for a day. I'll miss the funeral service tomorrow, but they know how the weather... Sign in to see full entry.

Mooooooose!
What a day! I just got my driveway shoveled out and the village plow came by and threw a couple hundred pounds of snow behind my car. I spent another ten minutes at four below shoveling snow. I finally decided I could back out and thankfully, the car was nice and warm. I had to drive about 75 miles... Sign in to see full entry.
Will I or Won't I? Not Sure Yet
Mmmmmm... 17 below this morning, heading to a high of zero. I'm fighting the urge to go sunbathing. Tomorrow is supposed to head up to 24, something I'll believe when I see it. I'm supposed to head down to go downstate to attend the funeral of my nephew's wife Sunday afternoon, but as much as I want... Sign in to see full entry.
