Nothing much happened yesterday. Hubby is home today - came home with sore feet and is upstairs on his computer and probably resting his feet today. I think he needs new shoes. I am going to a friend's house tomorrow. We will play cards and she will give me ideas on how to use the African fabric that someone gifted me with.
I agree with Beverly & Lynn that we are definitely more like real-time than cyber-only friends. I am so thankful to have met all of you!
CHERRY: Stay warm! Stay inside if it is TOO cold! Do you park your vehicle in a garage? Any considerations when you do have to start it if it is severely cold outside? I am glad you have heat. Do you have backup like a fireplace or wood stove? In the photo your black cat almost looks like it is wearing a red cape 
LYNN: Good luck and much success and ease of filing your papers! I can't imagine doing a parade for over two decades! They should have you sit on the car in the front and be the Marshall if/when you retire!
BEVERLY: My daughter had classes at her university cancelled due to storm and tornado warnings. I hope you stayed safe where you are! Wise to have frozen the cookies for the soup kitchen!
PAM: I am sure that whatever you do to celebrate your mother's birthday will be splendid! Take photos!

Good morning friends,
Well, finally the storms/rain has passed. This morning, it is much cooler (reached 80 deg yesterday). Today is cool & nice & clear.
Today, we are meeting our son at his house in Nashville, then going with him on a little trip to Bowling Green Ky. He wants to show us some of the things that he has been doing there. I am looking forward to it. He is a videographer, he uses a drone to shoot videos of shopping malls, etc for his clients to use for advertising. His wife is a graphic designer and they have a business together. I think in Bowling Green he shot videos of farm land, etc. for the chamber of commerce. Glad the sun is shinning, we will have a nice day for sightseeing.
I am not doing too good on the food front. amazing how the days just seem to slip away from me one after the other, yesterday it was lunch out with friends & then dinner prepare by SIL. I was able to have a grilled chicken sandwich & side salad for lunch, then SIL served chicken cutlets (one of my favorite things that she makes). Guess all & all, it wasn't that bad, but I sure felt full last night.
Waving to everyone, have a great day!!
PS, We are lucky to live on a hill, lots of flooding all around us. The basement of our church is completely flooded. A woman was killed when she was swept away by water in a neighboring town. Schools are still closed due to flooding and a couple of bridges being washed away. Beautiful today, stay safe everyone!!!

Good morning. I don't have any real backup if the furnace should go out. I do have a couple of small space heaters though. If the electricity goes out I have a generator. The furnace needs electricity to run the blower, even if I'm using propane. In the picture, my cat is laying on a throw blanket on the floor.
Wow! It got really cold last night. The low was -47 at 7:14 this morning, and now at 8:30 it is -40. We haven't had an actual temperature that cold for many years. I do keep my car in an unheated garage and since this is a newer car I have no idea whether it would start at this temp. I do have a car starter and can start it from inside the house. This is another day that I plan to stay inside and not even open the door. It is sunny and pretty outside with all the white snow that we got earlier this week, but I plan to enjoy it from inside my house.
My kitty is sitting at the window staring outside at a bunny in the yard. He is all twitchy and his tail is swishing back and forth and he looks like he is ready to leap through the window.
Have a nice much warmer day, beaches.

Good morning, friends!!
It has been a little busy at work, but it keeps the day flowing. I usually leave at 12:30 on Fridays, but someone is coming in at 1 pm who knows a lot about retirement, so I want to pick his brain.
I may head out to the commissary in West Point tomorrow, depending on weather. I need to stock up. I have not done a big food shopping since before Christmas. I need some meat, but chicken broth, peanut butter, olive oil and things like that, so it will be worthwhile driving the hour to stock up.
No other plans for this weekend, except to fill out retirement papers and my workshop on Sunday morning. I have been iffy this week, but I need the meetings.
Have a good, enjoyable day all!
