Good evening du ((HUGS))

Please tell me that it’s finally warming up in your neck of the woods? Will the crappy weather be heading your way or miss you?

I’m so ready for sun and warmth.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, beachy, for today's Just Hangin' Café.

[beachn4fun]

WOW! Your weather sounds kind of nice.

So far, we’ve been seeing mostly rain. Although, mostly cloudy the last few days. But it’s gone chilly again. Days have been 40s, which is pretty normal winter temps. Nights are down to freezing.

Hi radu!

Today was a tough, busy day, hitting the sack early, getting ready for another early day in the morning, but it'll be an easy 3-3 1/2 hour day. And then off for 4 days.

Wazzup your way?

[luvie]

Hey! You really are still here! LOL!

All is well here. Just enjoying my retirement. Best decision I ever made, besides saying “yes” to my hunny! :)

How’s the book-writing going for you?

[radu]

I wish I COULD tell you it’s warming up in our neck of the woods. We had a few warm days but today and yesterday have been miserable. Cloudy, windy, and cold. A little warmer tomorrow through the weekend, then cooling off a bit again.

Our roller coaster ride ain’t over yet. :-(

I’m with you on being ready for sun and warmth. I’ve been ready since last November. LOL

[beachn4fun]

How are things going with you these days?

Still busy. Planning some spring projects. Getting some writing done, and planning on a couple events this year.
Whatz up out your way?

[radu]

Howdy, LUV!

How are things down your way? Warming up yet or still in the cold front’s grip?

It was so heavy and wet that I hurt myself shoveling. Back, legs, ankles.

Gotta be careful of that. Rest well.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Janey...((HUGS))...did you finally get out of Cleveland?

[beachn4fun]

Good evening Ma ((HUGS))

I’m going to ask how things are up your way, but will have to read your answer in the morning...my bedtime is very near.

See you then. Have a wonderful night.

[left that other site]

I know it’s just strain, as the Motrin helped. Good Night, all my dear FRiends.

(((HUGS)))

How’s the book-writing going for you?

I'm finally getting back into the swing of it. Have managed to sneak in a few minutes last week and this week. Been a struggle finding the free time.
Retirement is great, isn't it?

[radu]

Well, at least it’s behind you now and there’s another week before you have to do it again. :-)

The temp certainly isn’t up our way. COLD! GRRRRRR! Had to venture out to take Sasha back to the vet and she squalled when the cold wind hit her. Can’t blame her!

Been having fun looking up info on ancestors now that I have more names to play with. Fun stuff to do while cooped up in the warmth. :-)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...hope you didn’t shovel too hard.

[PROCON]

Hi Kathy!

These old bones are tired from work today, time to refresh them with some sleep! Looking forward to the weekend!

[beachn4fun]

Gotta turn in.
Y'all have fun.
Will catch some of you in the morning.
To our Troops...Stay Safe.

[radu]

Hmmm, must not have had to take care of grandkids as much lately. Finally have time to work on things of your own. Yay!

Not much going on here right now. Still waiting for the guys at the military museum to get things squared away so I can get back up there to work on uniforms again.
Been playing around with the family tree quite a bit in the meantime.

[radu]

Howdy, Kathy.

Finally able to catch your breath a little today?
