Gonna miss Tx

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

We made it through hump day.

Did you get into the computer “without a password”?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Janey…((HUGS))...glad you are getting your hours.

Safe flights.

[luvie]

Hi...I’m in a crabby mood tonight...just a heads up. LOL Hope you are good and that you got some more rain! We didn’t...of course, but at least it was cooler today.

[The Mayor]

Not yet, frustrating. I have a friend working on it.
So I’m working on something else to take my mind off it.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...are you feeling better? Need more soup?

Take good care of yourself.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Pro...it’s trying to snow, but it’s too warm.

[radu]

Howdy, Kathy.

Hump Day and now a day off tomorrow to look forward too. Yay!

I see it’s been snowing a bit up there today. BRRRRRRRR!

[Kathy in Alaska]

The Mayor!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Janey!!

[radu]

Howdy, LUV.

Ruh roh, sounds like your day didn’t go as planned. :-(

It was an ok day here. Nothing exceptional. We got ripped off on the rain AGAIN. Not completely - - we got .2 an inch but others got so much more when the cold front came through overnight.

We have another shot at it Sun. night through Tues morning.

Leaving Tx , got my Shortwave radio...

[luvie]

Your rain totals sound a lot like ours. Not a good thing.

Yes...hubby had to buy new tires...cha ching...and some modding issues to deal with that I didn’t want to have to deal with. LOL!

A little rain is better than none at all, like last time, but we need a lot more. It’s frustrating to watch all the rain roll across the state and fizzle out just before it reaches us.

Ouch on new tires. That always hurts.

I gather you were modding during Steve’s streams this afternoon. I imagine there were a bunch of buttheads popping in. I didn’t watch them, just saw what he’d streamed earlier.

I’m getting ready to head over to the other house to start going through the stuff Clara piled in the garage and toss the junk. I’ve put it off but since Hubby’s making progress in the house, it’s time to get crackin’,

[luvie]

I modded on one of them but just couldn’t deal with two political streams in a row, so I took a nap during the Ehrdiwan [sp] letter one. LOL! There was more than enough trolls and they were, we believe, in it together. Tag teaming us.

Good luck getting that stuff out quickly so you can start moving your stuff in. Might start with one room at a time. Get it all vacuumed and then gradually take stuff there. That way it’s not so overwhelming at the last minute. Of course, I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know. :)

[Kathy in Alaska]

ML!!

[E.G.C.]

A very pleasant good Thursday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

How's everyone doing this morning?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, mountainlion….enjoy your day before the bottom falls out.

We had our first snow, but nothing stuck. It sleeted all the way home from work.

[radu]

Yup, I’d say they were tag-teaming the streams. When I saw what he had covered today, I figured you mods would be extra-busy.

I’ve already gotten the stuff out of the rooms in the house. Did that a while back. It’s the garage I’m working on now. It’s huge and there’s a lot of room along the walls for boxes - - and a lot of boxes of stuff stacked up. Also shelving on two walls and they’re full of stacked boxes. The worst part is it’s mostly Martha’s junk and it’s covered with CO dust. That’s worse than ancient Avon!!! LOL! I’ll be coughing and blowing my nose the rest of the night and into tomorrow.
