Happy Shrove Tuesday/ Mardi Gras to anyone who celebrates!
Good Morning...today I will copy this in case it disappears - ha. Slept well, up and ready for a walk...supposed to be really nice today and then the rain, snow, sleet/ whatever = possibly 2 inches of ice Wed - Thurs. Yesterday we saw them cleaning up limbs that had broken off of trees from all the ice last week. I so agree with you all who said snow is sooo much better than ice! OK...off for the walk... just wanted to get us started.

Good morning, Susie, I hope you have a nice walk, especially today before more storms roll in. Lora, looks like you are getting snow, so pretty! THANK GOODNESS your furnace is working!!! So many were not prepared for this, like in Texas, what will they do to stay warm? So sad. I do pray Jana is alright. I am home from school since I had a fever last night, and one more day of rest will help me for sure. I am able to walk pretty well now. So, I am not sure what caused the diverticulitis this time. I have been eating high fiber. I will say, my stress level is through the roof, so maybe that. But maybe it's gluten??? I've had breads, muffins, and cookies the last two weeks with spirit week and Valentines. Maybe it's that? Anyway, I'm on the bland diet right now, and I'm rather enjoying it: peanut butter, crackers, toast, bananas, jello, soup. It's all very comfy food. So, when I am able to go off of the bland diet, I think I might try gluten free for awhile, just to see. I am almost doing it now anyway. The only think I'd really really miss are tortillas, and Amy's makes a gluten free burrito. So, I think I'll give it a whirl. You know I like switching it up. I have about 8 more days of the antibiotic, then I'll try it. I feel awful missing school. My assistant is covering for me, and I gave her really detailed plans. They'll be okay, but I don't like missing work. I hope everyone is staying warm! Waving hi!

Good morning everyone.
Well I just woke up to everything covered in white. It's still snowing pretty hard. This isn't at all what they'd predicted for us, but I'll take it! They kept screeching Ice, Ice, Ice. Well all I have is Snow, snow, snow. Lol. The did hit the nail on the head with the temps. Currently it's 13, with a wind chill of 1. Yikes!
**********
Okay, I started typing the above about an hour ago and got distracted. Lol But the snow is still coming down. It's kind of crazy. they said we were only instore for rain/ice and nothing after 8pm last night. Anyway, it's supposed to be up in the 40s tomorrow, so it won't last long. Unless they got that way wrong too. Haha!
Susie - thanks for starting us. Enjoy your walk. Have you heard anything about what's happening in Jana's area? I'm wondering if her power is still out.

I briefly messaged with Jana. She, her pops and Zeke drove down to her uncles house in NC. She is without internet today, but power is good. R is driving down to join them today. She said they are telling them 7- 10 days until power is restored at her house. Apparently the number of trees down in her area is massive.

Thanks Lora - I was going to call her. I was amazed at all the limbs down around here and I'm sure it was worse at her house!

Hey Lora - I have probably asked you this before, but when you roasted radishes, were they red ones or white ones and did you just drizzle oil and spices on them?

Hey Susie - I used the red radishes because they're just so economically priced, but any will work. I just sliced off the top and bottom. You can cut them smaller like in halves or quarters, but they do cook down A LOT so even whole, they will still end up bite sized. Yes, I tossed them in a little bit of oil and seasoned them with salt, pepper and a little paprika.

Hi Everyone, Today was okay. Three out of 3 attended the conference. One I texted her to tell her I was in the room or most likely I didnt have a lot of expectation that she was actually going to come in. Only one of the three lasted the whole time. One of the grandparents who usually is home with her grandchild said she didnt receive the papers that our family worker sent to her. I just told her the things that her granddaughter needed to work on. Since she is one who comes to pick up the grab and go lunches she can get the progress report. My phone needs charging so will say gn.

My phone is charged more so I can add add some more. Jill, sorry that you have a fever. Do you think it's related to the diverticulitis? Did Robin bring the other dogs with him I hope. I know that they have other dogs too. We are supposed to get snow on Thursday a about 3-6 inches so I plan to get the film home, bring home my binder, camera,printer and my conference papers for the virtual conferences on Thursday. I am not going to drive there and then get stuck driving home in bad weather. I would rather work from home since that it is supposed to be snowing pretty much all day they say. Have a restful night.
