You’re right about that. I’m over snow! That freeze last year was all the ice and snow I ever want to see. LOL! Someone at church today said we were supposed to get snow last night, and I’m really glad we didn’t!

I remember when she was stuck up there. What an ordeal to go through, especially operating on herself.

I didn’t realize it was that long ago. Where did the time go?

Y’all really got slammed last year. That whole ordeal was just unbelievable. Just the ice and snow was bad enough but the loss of power made it so much worse.

Nice that you didn’t get snow last night.

I’m glad we didn’t get snow. Even though I think it’s pretty, I want it to come...if it’s going to...when I don’t have to get out. I’m a wuss. :)

And now...I’ve gotta go. I’m sinking fast. I’ve been watching the Beatles special and I forgot to watch the clock. See ya mañana!

I don’t go anywhere when it snows here. Not because I don’t know how to drive on it - I do - but because there are too many fools around here who don’t. I stay home so they don’t run into me when they crash. LOL

No snow any time soon for us and that works just fine.

You did stay up mighty late tonight, especially for a Sunday. Bet you’ll sleep hard! LOL

Yep and BTW I'm spacing the taking of pics out to save battery on my iPhone but still getting the best pics out.

Folks, I have Gizmo as the star of my header pictures on my social media and yesterday I went ahead and changed it to a brand new one. This one has garnered the most positive responses I've ever seen. This of course was at Chisolm Trail Park.

I'm going to keep it for right now and when we get a new battery for the iPhone or a new battery we'll change it again but I really do love this one.

Yep. Penny dons her Purple Parka for every walk now.

Penny the Prancing Pitbull
Loves her early morning walk
She dons her Purple Parka
And walks around the Trailer Park.
She’s not the least Pugnacious
‘Cept when she’s protecting Mom
Then, Penny the Prancing Pitbull
Can do some Pretty serious harm!

(To the tune of Rudolph)

Howdy, EGC! (((hugs)))

It is a gorgeous picture and tells the whole “Gizmo” story in one image. Good choice for your cover photo.

Goood mornin', Early Birds!
Well, I could hardly show a snowy scene.
It's going to be spring-for-Christmas this year.
But the season will be jolly.
We'll be spending it with our kids.
Hope all y'all are ready for THE day!
Have a Mahv'lus Monday
...and a Wonderful Week!
(((hugs)))

I agree...that is a great picture of Gizmo in his favorite “habitat”.

I remember seeing a documentary showing the Air Force dropping little bits of candy for the kids as they approached the runway at Templehoff (? spelling).
