Gunsmoke!

Happy New Year Flood, Viking! When it’s over, we’ll have to compare rain inches.

Here’s a link to our next door neighbors’ weather station thingy in their back yard that reports to Weather Underground (the other one): https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=KMSGULFP34#history

We pushing 7 inches of rain now.

Sneezed a lot. Coughed. Generally felt like hell. Got back from Cumberland in the wee hours Tuesday morning, a 14 hour journey through lousy weather, and brought a cold back with me. Still trying to shake it. I've actually spent most of the last four days in bed. The missus has done a sterling job of taking down most of the holiday decorations and packing them up. I've been in a general daze with all the cold and flu meds I've been pumping into myself. Kinda light-headed, unfocused, and detached from my surroundings. This must be what it feels like to be a liberal.

[WXRGina]

“We pushing.” Yes, I typed that. Duh. We’re also pushing 7 inches...

[Vision]

I can't recommend cold-eeze enough. Will shorten colds IME.

[Viking2002]

Yep, you're right next door, as the crow flies. Same system is dumping on us. Tomorrow's a company holiday, so at least I can stay warm and dry inside with the Rat Pack.

[Viking2002]

I've been popping Hall's Defense. They taste like furniture polish, but they're loaded with Vitamin C. Prolly need some zinc, as well.

[WXRGina]

We’re off from the radio station tomorrow, too, which is good. It will give my left eye time to feel better. Last night a drop of hot oil popped into my eye when I was cooking (my dumb fault for forgetting and letting it get too hot). It feels crummy, and my eye is still watering, but hopefully, I’ll live. :-)

[Vision]

MY GOD that sounds horrible glad you're ok. I got the heebie jeebies...

[Vision]

Whistler!

Young lady seducing the professor...

[Viking2002]

Ouch. First degree burn on the orb. That's gonna smart a day or so. No worries - I've done that before myself. It happens. Once I was smoking a whole ham in a barrel smoker, forgot to take into account the influx of fresh air then I took the lid off, and a hot column of flames shot up out of it like rocket exhaust then I stuck my face in. Looked like something Wile E. Coyote would have done. Singed my eyelashes completely off. Everyone else thought it was a hoot except me. LOL

[WXRGina]

It sucks to be careless, which is what I was. I put olive oil in a skillet to cook some frozen green beans, and I walked away and stupidly checked the Internet. Then, I’m all SHOOT, the oil! Instead of just turning off the fire, I just poured the green beans in, and BOOM! The oil went nuts, and I got a dose in my left eye. Today I cleaned the whole mess up. Stupid, stupid, but it could’ve been worse.

[WXRGina]

Oh, yes, it’s funny for everyone else! HA HA—NOT!

[Vision]

Not the most shocking ending...

[Vision]

The Shadow knows!

[Vision]

This plot is complicated...

[WXRGina]

Guys, here’s a brief rain video I took in our back yard this morning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8cKxzhGRWo&feature=youtu.be

Nasty. Right on the border of damage happening...

[WXRGina]

Yep, we’re still having off and on lightning, too. Severe weather is forecast for the areas in front of this system.
