Good morning to you all, we are covered in snow here though only an inch or so, I am ok after my fall yesterday thanks, a bump on the back of my head but otherwise no other symptoms. I don't understand why you can't see the photos @Holly Saunders they were uploaded can you see these copies below?
@Babs Hunt the difference in temperature preference is a minor thing as long as the colder person is willing to wear a sweater. Usually it is the male in the pair who prefers it cooler, as I think part of the aging process in ladies is that the thyroid slows. @Holly Saunders things are pretty much back to normal here except for schools and commuters to Anchorage. Schools are closed, most "non-essential" government offices are closed, and, although the blizzard that was supposed to hit us didn't materialize, we did get about an inch of very slippery wet snow to add to the confusion. My wife just left for work, so I have a little more work to do this morning. We will be leaving for a son's wedding next weekend, and will be back for Christmas. I may get out and plow the snow off the driveway just to keep it from freezing there when the temps drop again.
I married a Florida native who thinks the weather should be Florida beach weather all year round. He thinks he should be able to wear just his swimsuit or shorts and a tee shirt and not be cold in the Winter time. It's taking some time but he's learning to put on winter clothes when he gets cold instead of jacking up the thermostat to 80 degrees. He's finding he would rather put those winter clothes on than be in the "dog house" all winter long.
My Christmas decorating spirit kicked in yesterday afternoon so looks like my Honey will be getting our Christmas storage tote down from the attic today. I think it kicked in because my FB page brought up the pics from my decorating last year...and it looked so cheerful and bright that my spirit lifted and decided "let's do this again." So I'm going to. Every year we also buy ornaments for each grandchild and one for their moms and dads. Here's the ones I bought this year for all of them.
Morning all.. Contrary to the forecast for rain today we have a sunny , albeit chilly day instead.. I tell you, if I had my time over again, I'd be a meteorologist, it's the only job you can consistently do wrong and be paid a lot . Instead of going out yesterday in the rain, I could have left it until today!! My new ''luxury'' Down comforter was delivered this morning, I only ordered it Monday and it wasn't supposed to arrive until Friday, so good thing I was home.. , anyway I bought a different colour completely to any of my current bedding, ( my bedroom is beige, pink and white) and this is a beautiful shade of turquoise blue , so I'm pleased with it.. Just had lunch, baked beans and cocktail sausages on toast... Have a good day folks...
