You won’t be sorry! :)

Your sister is in for a BIG shock! Maybe you don’t want to warn her about it or she might not go up there! LOL!

Fairly warm here today - 64 degrees when I went to the grocery store this afternoon. But the wind is roaring and takes some of the fun out of it.
Going to be comfortable here for the next week at least.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I am off for home....be back when I can. Both roads leading into my subdivision are blocked by accidents in the area. Gotta figure out an alternate route.

[luvie]

It was in the 80s here! ~~~ducking~~~

Actually, I’m kind of peeved that it’s this warm this soon! LOL!

[radu]

Glad you were able to get things worked out. Bet the weekend can’t get here soon enough! :-)

I’ll email you some links you need to check out tonight. I had THE BEST time reading them last night. You’ll understand why the CNN reporter got blasted today by Trump. THAT was delicious! LOL

[mylife]

enjoy

Sounds like her birthday card should have been circled on your list so you wouldn't forget it. :-) I have to do that for important things on my list or I'll come home without them. Kinda sticks getting old , doesn't it? LOL

Just did the grocery shopping this afternoon, after watching a little of the Senate hearing.

Just the little I watched let me know that. Looking forward to watching it when the show is over.

[radu]

hew, that IS mighty warm for January!
They SAY we might hit 70 tomorrow but if it doesn’t quite make it, that’s ok. We’re content with the 60s we’ll have the next week.

Just wish we’d get some of the rain they keep talking about.

[radu]

WOOHOO! #50 is yours!

[luvie]

It’s supposed to cool off soon and weirdly enough, I look forward to that. I never know what to wear any more. If I have on sweats, it gets hot...if I have on short sleeves, it’s freezing. Silly weather! LOL!

[luvie]

Thanks! Lucky to be here. Watching a BBC show on another tab. LOL!

[PROCON]

Main roads are all clear, still getting snow flurries too.

[mylife]

the preezy of the united snakes has made an indelible imprint

Time for tough love

[luvie]

It’s going to be fun to watch! :)

How are you doing?

[radu]

It sounds like your weather roller coaster is wilder than ours. LOL!
No thoughts of wearing shorts here. If we can get by with a light jacket during the brief warm-ups, we’re happy. Just bugs me having to dress in layers when it’s cold. Makes me feel like I’m waddling like the Sta-Puft Man in Ghost Busters. hee!

[radu]

Still getting flurries? Yuck!
At least it isn’t coming down hard enough to give you feet of snow like in northern CA. Those folks are having a heck of a time these days. Ouch!
