I thought I heard that, but wasn’t sure.

RIP, Debbie Reynolds.

A lot of people have passed lately. The rich and famous get lots of attention but the soldiers often get ignored. All life is precious.

Good evening, mountainlion....this is all too true, and very sad.

God Bless our troops!!

Weather Alert coming for Thursday night. A bunch of inches of snow on my side of town.

Are you already for a long winter?

[luvie]

Always remembering them...
...and the sacrifices they make
to keep us free and safe!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, radu...winter storm warning for tomorrow. The downtown camera should be interesting. 5-10” on my side of town.

Bad day at work...boss in Florida working on year-end and our regular process is shutdown. What a mess!!!! Thank goodness this is not the pay week, but we haven’t had a chance to check the week. A short week NEXT week is REALLY not going to be fun. No time at all the check for errors.

Did you get rain?

Howdy, LUV.

Remembering them every day! And grateful for what they’ve done and are doing for us and the country.

[luvie]

I am more shocked and saddened by her death than by her daughter’s. But then, I’m not a Star Wars fan.

[luvie]

Amen! Hope you had a good day today! :)

[radu]

Howdy, Kathy.

That’ll be a decent snowfall tomorrow night. You bet the cams will be interesting to watch. LOL!
And it’ll be a good “blanket” for the pipes. Just makes driving a bit of an adventure for y’all so be careful Friday morning.

Or stay home. LOL!

Dang! What a mess is right! I hope they have things straightened out with your regular process QUICKLY so you aren’t messed up next week! You’ll already be messed up enough with it being a short week.

We’re getting a little rain right now and I’m watching the radar in hopes of a thunderstorm to the west getting close to us. There have been some lightning flashes in the distance this evening but I want something closer. :-)

[Fiddlstix]

Well Her daughter is just a couple years older than my own kids. I did see "star wars" with my kids though. They thought it was "way cool".
I'm getting too close to 80 myself so I'm on Debbie's generation than Carrie.

on = in

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...you and Penny ready for your cold weather?

I’m bracing for 5-8” of snow Thursday and overnight. I hope the guy who plows my driveway is early. And hopefully they will let us out early on Friday.

I may have to work Monday, the observed holiday.

[radu]

It was a typical Wed. - - cat food shopping day. LOL!
But it started out pretty. Not a cloud in the sky when I woke up but an hour later, it was cloudy. We made it into the low 60s so that wasn’t too bad. Going to cool off behind the front that’s moving through now though.

How’d your day go?
