Thanks, Kathy. There have already been lives lost and i too, pray that no more are. :(

It sure would be nice if it doesn’t get as cold as they predict. This bunch of weather people they have now are all over the map constantly in their forecasts and constantly change them. They had a good chief meteorologist for years and the forecasts were about as accurate as t can get. He retired last year and the noobs are not impressive at all. We never know what to expect.

Layers indeed! That’s been the way we’ve lived all winter here. LOL

[luvie]

Well, I hope they’re wrong this time! I think time for snow is just about over...unless you’re in the far north. I mean FAR north. LOL!

[radu]

We hope they’re wrong this time too! But we’ve had snow in the middle of April before so .........

[Kathy in Alaska]

HI Luv...((HUGS))...the actual temp is 20, but with the wind chill more like 4. I thought I would freeze getting to my car.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Some fun with cards...............

Good morning, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

If I look hard I can see the weekend. We’re gonna make it.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, ML...((HUGS))...any pub nights this week?

You and Penny enjoy the nice weather and have fun walking.

[luvie]

I’m getting cold just thinking about all this cold weather. LOL!

Guess I’ll go cuddle with Ginger...it seems to be her turn tonight. Why are they afraid to leave me alone. LOL!

See y’all tomorrow night!

[radu]

I get cold when I see the temps Kathy deals with. LOL!
Or see all that snow and ice in WY.
BRRRRRR!!

Good night, LUV, and I hope Ginger behaves and lets you sleep through the night.

A very pleasant good Thursday morning to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

((HUGS))Good morning, Kathy. How's it going?

I watch really hard, but never can figure it out. I’m sure there is a simple explanation and some can pick up on it right away, but I’m not one of them.

I am crashing....as soon as I get my Mom to bed, I’m going too.

She loudly called my name twice about 5:30a and I went quickly. She wanted to know who they were and get them out. I dutifully yelled at them to leave and shooed them out. She kept repeating, Get them out. As I rounded them up and told them to leave, she said Dad was snoring really badly. He’s always been in the room.

Well, she’s finally down, but not until she tore the stop off the bathroom door frame. That was an interesting sound. I long ago took the door off to many and continuous gripping. No one is coming in her room without permission except the little girl, and now all of the visitors early this morning.

I got my hammer and nailed it back in place.

Sleep well when you get there. ((HUGS))

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, E...((HUGS))...any weather issues around you?

You and Bo have a good Thursday.

[radu]

If there’s editing, it’s the smoothest I’ve ever seen.

Sounds like you’ve had a heck of a morning and an evening with your mom. Hope she doesn’t have any more visitors tomorrow morning. Not at 5:30 a.m. at least!

Good night and sleep well. HUGZ
