Howdy, LUV!

Hope your day wasn’t too bad what with the cold front coming in. I don’t think any of us are looking forward to more cold, cold weather. BRRRRR

I got the grocery store AND Wally World runs done today to make sure we have enough of everything to get through the weekend, in case we get hit with frozen stuff. Anything sticks Friday, it’ll be here until Monday at least. Gonna be a frigid weekend here. :-(

[MEG33]

Thanks for the music, LV!

WHEW! Glad you have heat! It’s far too cold up there to have none.

Hey there, Kathy.

No rain today but it was cloudy. At least it was warm even if it windy. Supposed to get rain tomorrow and Friday and Friday’s stuff will change over to frozen stuff. Whatever we get will stay around through the weekend.
Slippery streets like you’ve been dealing with. The last thing y’all need is more rain.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Liberty...great tunes. ((HUGS))

Has your cold spell departed?

[radu]

LOL! How on earth did you find that one?

It appears they were having a LARGE time.
