Snowing in Mayberry!

Haley's yard is white. School is closed (because of ice, not because of the snow). It is cold.

Nothankyou, when we can have this:






Shorts and flip flops...or long pants and boots?

What do you pick?

On a positive note, I just heard on the news that the local power and light folks are sending trucks up to GA today to help with the clean up if needed, hoping to avoid the gridlock that happened with the recent snow storm there.

Our Mayberry commissioner is on top of the situation there with salt, gravel, trucks, and snow plows at the ready. Thanks, Lamar and the road crew! Keep my kids and friends safe.

We send good vibes from FL to everyone in the cold. WYWH!

Ouch-y

MM getting numbed up to have two spots removed. His modeling career may be over. We shall see.

Phew-y. The spots have been zapped.

Be glad this blog does not offer smell apps. Zapped flesh is not pleasant.

He had two different C types, but they were baby bad boys and probably won't return. Probably, but we will definitely keep a watch on them.

Over and out. Heading back to the Moho to have a lovely Monday...and watch the weather, especially in Mayberry where another storm is expected. Winter has gotten seriously annoying this year! Be careful.

Life is good, y'all!

Suddenly Sunday

How did that happen? Where has the week gone?

Time is flying. And so was wee Will and his friend yesterday. They both are little daredevils. Alex wanted no part of that action.

We've been fairly busy. Had a nice visit with Empress Bee, and dinner with the LWHS gang to welcome Christine home for awhile from Hawaii.



Loved meeting her own Will. He's a cutie. Uncle Dick also approves.

This morning's overcast will be gone by birthday celebration time this afternoon. Wade and birthday gal Ginger will be here later.

That's about it in paradise, where life is good, y'all! WYWH!

Thursday in paradise

We had a nice lunch out with Bill and Barbara on the intracoastal waterway yesterday and enjoyed watching all the boat traffic. And a couple of quick but hard rain showers. More liquid sunshine expected today.

So my Moho printer finally let me down yesterday. It was probably close to 10 years old, so it was time to retire it. You would think, but no, MM worked on it (unsuccessfully), so we checked out the local thrift store in search of one like it for parts...but no luck. Aw shucks.

I have a new wireless printer!

May the old printer RIP. We can print again. Hallelujah. Back in business.

It's the little things that keep me happy. And efficient.

How's your day?

We have a park board meeting in a few minutes, then I am off to the ATT store for a new SIM card for my iPad.

What is next to expire in the technology department, I wonder?

Despite these small aggravations, life is good, y'all!

Happy birthday, Amy!

She says it was 28 years ago, but it was a just a wee bit longer ago than that when I was in labor on this very day.  This gal was worth every labor pain I endured, and has been a blessing (mostly!) ever since. 

Happy birthday to our baby girl.  I know you are enjoying your birthday season.  Party on!  You just get better each year.

So what is going on in the land of sunshine, you ask?  Well, two kitties are sleeping slugs, my boyfriend has gone off to play Mechanic Man with friend Dickie B on the fancy car Dickie is restoring (I posted about it last month).  That March deadline for finishing it is rapidly approaching, so MM thought he would go see if he could help speed the work along.  He’s a keeper.

With MM gone, that leaves me car-less, so I am taking this day to (reluctantly) clean off my desk (yes, that goes on no matter where we are), and do the ever-boring laundry duty.

Excitement.  We haz it.

If you need me, you can find me outside on the patio reading in about 13 minutes.

Now that is labor I can easily handle (at my advanced age).

Have yourselves a ginger peachy day, y’all!  I sure will.

Rolling south!

Leaving fog behind; seeing a bit of sunshine ahead. Yippie. WPB, here we come.

Miles and smiles, y'all! And may the best team win today.

Ho hum Saturday

At least our kids are having fun:






We are tired of the rain:






But we are enjoying our evenings with the family and friends. Scott, Holly and the kids joined us for dinner, along with friends Tom and Dixie. The pork tenderloin I cooked all day in the crockpot was quite tasty.

A little Rummikub...a little shopping. We are managing entertaining ourselves. We hope we will eventually see real sunshine.

There was just enough food leftover to go back and finish it all up tonight and say our goodbyes to Don and Carolyn. We head south to WPB tomorrow. It's been fun, but we need to hit the road. Be warned--we will be back!

Be careful on slopes and sleds, kids...and stay warm.

Life is good, y'all!
