radu....good evening! Posting completely blind from work this evening. New laptop is working on external hard drive recovery the IT guy is helping me with...I can only work with his timing. He chose an hour ago and it looks to run 2 1/2 hours. LOL!

Are you drowning yet?

[radu]

That’s true.
The cold is hard enough to put up with but these wet systems that keep rolling through are the pits. I hope your snow has a chance to melt before this next system comes through over the weekend. We’ll most likely get snow out of this one .... looks like out luck has run out at last. :-(

...till they all come home....

[ConorMacNessa]

We're supposed to get an inch or two tomorrow late.

Remember our Troops...
...and pray for them.
At least 3 of our troops were
killed in Syria today
by a terrorist bomber
as they sat in a restaurant. 🙏🏼

[radu]

Everything posted just fine as far as I can see. Good job posting blind. LOL

Are the checks almost finished printing so y’all can get out of there at a decent hour?

Not drowning just yet but will get a good soaking this weekend, and probably some wintry ick as well.

Had a little shaker close by last night. A 2.8 struck only about 15 miles from here but we didn’t feel anything. The cats knew it though!

[radu]

We’ll get rain from tomorrow’s system. The one coming through over the weekend is supposed to give us some ice and snow though. I suppose that will give y’all another dose too. :-(

[mylife]

Its been going on a LONG time

[caww]

Dear Lord God,.....Please bring our troops home sooner rather than later...

and let their own military protect their people.....

In Jesus Name,

Amen

Evening, Kathy!

[luvie]

Amen, caww. They shouldn’t have even been there! I hope this gives the president the urgency to get them out of there quicker!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mooch....things warmed up today to almost 30. Streets are already wet. Not good for ice.

How are you managing with snow?
