Had that. It froze.
Bummer. :-)
and off the door handle :D
Whoops... went out to mess with the new... uh, cupholders.
But yes, have had ice like that. Not often here, but when it happens... its a real bugger.
Have also gotten to go out with a baseball bat and smack ice off the superstructure of an icebreaker... its a wonderful catharsis after weeks and weeks of messdeck duty. :-)
It's a rainy blustery day here. But rain means the ambient temp is relatively warm and that means my heatless office is liveable. Yaaaay!
If it stays warm like this, I might pull a 2J and go plant some cold-weather crops in the garden. I'm itchin' for spring!
Yeah, we're having some wild windy rain out there this morning. Woke up with a start at 8am, and realized that Joseph hadn't gotten up so he was late for school. Went to wake him and he was just a blob, so he's staying home today. Am enjoying my first cuppa. ;o)
How cool is that?! Proud of ya, sis!
Have fun driving to work today!
Morning everyone!
Off to get coffee...
Morning! I have classes today. I wonder how evil this semester is going to be.
Well, I figure seeds are cheap, sis...and if the seedlings freeze, I still won't see my efforts as wasted...I spent some wonderful time with my husband and children out in the sun, the Oklahoma winds sanding my lips till who needs lipstick?
Still, I'll try to keep them alive with the row covers and cold frames.
Pretty neat, eh?
~sip~
[yawn][stretch]
Mornin'... :-)
~very~ neat. :-)
*hands you a cup of coffee*

Didja watch American Idol last night?
I did... most of it anyway.
I liked the twins. :-)
The first set of twins, right? Not the ones that fought over grabbing Paula's hands.
Oh, didja see "I shot the sheriff...."? *laughing*
We were expecting a front to come through over the weekend...50% chance of rain. It came through and it didn't rain a single drop. The storms fired up way southeast of us.
There was an interview with a firefighter on the news that said even the soil, which has enough organic matter in it, will catch fire and burn. The dirt itself burns, even when no grass is present.
Yah the first set... those guys can sing.
There were some *really* scary people in there. I mean... I understand lots of people dream of being a big star and all that... but what were some of these people thinking? How can some of them live to adulthood under hideous illusions like that? Wow...
Dirt burns? Sheesh.
We had a thunderboomer come through last night. Woke me up out of dead sleep.
The power flickered on and off a few times, but didn't stay out for very long. Thank goodness.
It is amazing, isn't it?
The producers of the show have everyone go through some preliminary rounds before they stand in front of Simon, Paula and Randy.
So those weird people actually got through because they were so awful. :-/
I cannot believe they let the crazy dude through to Hollywood. I would have preferred the Ukranian chick who rolled around on the floor to Bohemian Rhapsody. :-D
