Saturday looks like it will be another fun weather day for me NOT! Once again it seems my house will be near the rain/ice /snow line It's hard to make plans if you don't even know if you'll be able to leave your house. Even harder in my case because my dh is on the list to be in on Saturday, he may or may not have mandatory time so I'm going to pack a bag for him tomorrow just in case he has to go in Friday and stay until the roads are clear He was originally supposed to have a 3 day weekend this week He swapped out with somebody who needs this weekend to Christmas shop

We are supposed to get another blast of snow Saturday. I am not happy about that, I was hoping to get out and do some shopping. Maybe Sunday will be okay.

Out for me tonight. My baked potato is done, and I'm craving carbs.....I will address this after Christmas!

James is now wearing a ring from a girl at school made it

Oh my!

 

[ajrwdwgirl]

Good night first concert is about to begin soon

Hope the concert went well!

But...but....if it's 100, you can't crawl in bed with a heated mattress cover and snuggle up in the blankets with a good book!

Thank god--finally, the voice of reason here! Take that, @StarWarsGirl !!

 

[MinnieM123]

Who turned on the wind? It's so bad I can only get out walk about a mile and then need to run back inside. Walk, come in warm up and repeat is not my idea of fun. @MinnieM123 SEEK HELP IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So why not just snuggle up with your honey? That should warm you up!

 

[MinnieM123]

Hmmm...
I can hear the bells just fine on my desktop here at the office.

Are you serenading your colleagues with holiday tunes?

I don't know, they are showing the temperatures bottoming out on Sunday and being the coldest day yet!

 

[MinnieM123]

Not a major problem, but, I'm having trouble finding anything to complain about this morning, other then my still numb mouth, so it seemed like a good target.

Well, we certainly wouldn't want to deprive you of something to complain about!

Hope your mouth feels better soon. Sometimes they give you pain medicine to use for the first day or two--just depends on how easily the tooth comes out, and if it's a molar, canine incisor, or one of the smaller front teeth..

 

[MinnieM123]

May I suggest you string some popcorn and hang some candy canes? Perhaps a few popcorn ball ornaments and a string of fruitloop for color?

That should get Jack in the Christmas Spirit.

It would never make it past the kitchen to the tree! And he loves his food--really gets his face into it and then "wears" his meal around for a while until he realizes he looks stupid.

No, you lay across the side of the pool with your book, and then later, you go for a swim.

My dog hates anything put on him. He thinks he's handsome enough -- no embellishment needed!

We have a warm up to the teens on Friday and Saturday just for some snow and then back into the negatives on Sunday. Next week looks like the balmy 20's.

I like both pumpkin and pecan but I've never had them together. Too me I don't know how that would go together, but a lot of weird stuff goes together sometimes.

I never had that combo either. I suggest we stop by @Songbird76 's house tomorrow, and she can give each of us a slice. A glass of milk with that would also go nicely!

 

[MinnieM123]

We have a feels like temperature of -13 and when the dog came in she was prancing weird. Her little paws got a little frozen. I felt bad for her, so I'm sure she was thinking what that little dalmatian in your picture was thinking.

Do they make booties for a little dog? We had booties for my previous dog, and she hated them! HA! She'd try to shake them off, bite them off, anything to get them off her paws! Other dogs don't mind them at all. It also protects their paws from the salt on the road.

Yah I agree, Figgy is extreme.

Sounds good to me!

Kapono does have boots, but she usually wears them on walks not to go do her business outside. She doesn't really like the boots but I like that they protect her paws. Maybe she will wisen up and not go to the far end of the yard to potty. But she is a little OCD and must do certain things a certain way all the time so she will go to the far end of the yard everytime.

Yup, time to break out the thermals. It always amazes me when I see people walking along on a really frigid day--and not dressed properly for it. (I love cold, but dress in layers for it.) I saw a teenage boy walking up to the high school, and he had on long shorts and a light hoodie, sneakers (no socks) and no gloves. The temperature was around 10 degrees that morning. He looked like he was really suffering, but probably thought it wasn't cool to bundle up like the Michelin Man!

They like their space and privacy. No different than us--we shut the door to the bathroom, right?

Then why does she follow me into the bathroom?
