LOL!

We’ll live. Might not be happy though. :-)

On the bright side, this cold hit should kill off a few bugs!

[E.G.C.]

Actually we had some freezing drizzle which turned our town into an ice skating rink so no we stayed at home yesterday. We'll see how things go today but here is Gizmo cuddling up on the bed.

Hey, I’ll take it. Last year was very buggy even with us having so little rain.

[radu]

Darn the luck! A good thing there wasn’t enough to knock the power out.

We’re just going to squeak by without being hit by the ice storm that’s in west TN and in KY now. We’ll stay above freezing long enough for all the rain to get past. WHEW!

Poor Gizmo. He looks so sad. Didn’t get to go out to roll in the dirt and drag you all over the place.

[radu]

We’ll take it too! We had way to many bugs last year and reeeeeeally don’t want a repeat.

[luvie]

Howdyyy dooo, Early Birds!
Guess what time it nearly is?
Hope you don't forget by THE day!
Your hunny won't be happy!
It's gonna be a frigid 💗-day
....that's for darn sure!
Anyhoooo...y'all have a GREAT day today.
((((hugs))))

[luvie]

Good thinking, staying at home. That’s a great picture of “our” Gizmo! 🤎
