I’m surprised your job hasn’t driven you to drink! LOL!
I knew you’d be up late last night but that was later than I thought it would be. I see “lights out” not long after you hit the recliner tonight. :-)

We didn’t get all that much rain yesterday, fortunately, and today was SUNNY. More rain coming in this weekend though. :-(

Good evening, radu, and thanks for the tunes.

Just got an email...my computer is in!! Too tired tonight, but tomorrow I will go talk to them and find out about them transferring the old to the new. d:o)

I’m going home!

[radu]

WOOHOO!! New computer’s in! Bet you’re looking forward to having that at last!

At least you should be able to get home easily enough since the streets don’t look too bad this evening.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Home safe and sound and fed, sitting in the lounger with my blankie.

It was so nice to leave work and it wasn’t dark yet. Dark before I got home, but I’m ready for some more light. Roads were good. Single digits by midnight and possible snow this weekend. Need duck food this weekend.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...any getting out weather? Penny well rested?

[radu]

Howdy, LUV.

Yes, it was a good enough day even though it was grocery day. LOL! The best part was that there was BRIGHT SUNSHINE! WOOHOO!

Hope you had a good day.

[luvie]

Hey, that’s awesome that there was some sunshine there. Must have made grocery shopping a bit more tolerable, huh.

It was here, too and it’s supposed to be 80!! tomorrow. NOT ready for that! Not at all!

How’s Miss Moogly feeling?
