No.. snow and rain. Apparently wind as well.. I left my garbage can sitting behind my car last night.. wind somehow took the lid straight back onto my car.. completely shattered the glass . I put an inflatable pool, plastic, and salt bags to try to protect from the snow and rain. I have to drive it like this to the dealer- (with window out.. not with the inflatable pool lol)
Maybe this is a sign that I should clean my garage so I can actually park in there???

Years ago I saw a post that went somewhat like....

Garage: The place where people store worthless crap so their $30,000 vehicles x 2 could live outdoors.

An eye opener. I had a 3 car garage. Minimum 2 cars fit. Sometime 3.

 

[Gabe1]

Yeah I would have rather had water inside the garage again. Not the car. Oh well.

Feel the pain. Had a tree branch hit my truck during this summer tornado. Not pretty.

My dad brought a cold home and gave it to me. Just what I wanted. To be sick again. Not!

Afrin and my sinus rinse have done wonders for my ability to breathe through my nose again, though.

I wish for you your own place soon. Your loved ones share too much.

Oh my Gosh! Yes! I just started Snap Chat, thanks to someone I follow headed to WDW, and mentioned he would be posting there. Imagine my DD's surprise, when she got a friend request from her Mom. I have been on FB for years, but I have to say, I can't stand Snap Chat! I think I am going to delete it, after I torment my DD for a bit. And then, I think I should try Instagram. She will be so pleases to get another friend request from me.

Giggle. You have a mean streak. I've yet to even attempt to friend my adult kids on their social media accounts I'd feel like a stalker. Mind you they equally have never requested a friend or follow from me. A mutual hands off thing.

Looking at that photo I realize that my child lives in a perpetual state of “needs a haircut”.

And 12 more glorious days of winter -- enjoy, everybody!

Hey Mother Nature

 

[Figgy1]

So do you just ram a straw into that adult juice box?

Ask a silly question

 

[Figgy1]

Nothing wrong with your Malibu. No car payment.

Now that I can't breathe through my nose, I'm realizing that breathing through your nose is something too many of us take for granted. I mean, I truly miss the days of breathing through my nose. It will be a wonderful experience when that feeling returns.

Sympathy like. GWS xoxo

I'm a fan of Mucinex (the one kept behind the pharmacist counter that you have to sign for version) Also The cold and Allergy version of Advil that is also signed for at the pharmacist desk. Beyond that nothing much works for me over the counter.

^^^^^This I have some in a box for emergencies. The only problem is they expire before they run out

 

[Figgy1]

I still plan on re-reading this and taking notes. I also need some advice to a 'conversation' will be forthcoming.

Anytime. I think I did a rather good job of meal and drink planning for that one if I say so myself

 

[Figgy1]

I found a video that explains how we do rope drop. Hope it helps with planning ps it's pretty much the same for all the parks

 

[Figgy1]

As of now the boys have a half day going in late. We'll see if that works Desperate times and all that

Thank you, so far so good. I plan on going to sleep early tonight.


I am not an IT person by any stretch, but I am proficient with computer programs and definitely know PowerPoint.. I’m not allowed to help him though.. I’m allowed to give “minimal assistance”, but he is required to do it on his own for the most part.


Is that a CX-5? If so..I love that vehicle! It’s what we drove to Florida. I’m one of the few people who prefer driving a sedan on a daily basis, or else I would have bought that in a heartbeat...absolutely love how it drove. Cargo space was great too.

Did you manage to get to bed early last night? I had some sort of stomach bug yesterday, so I went to bed early...still feeling a bit meh, but not as bad as yesterday...I think the sleep helped.
What does "Minimal assistance" even mean? All DH did for the kids was teach them the commands. They had to do it all themselves, and they told him what he wanted and he told them how to do it, but it was all their own work. DD especially fell in love with PowerPoint. She does it for fun now. She just made one to remind DH of how much fun we had in WDW to convince him we need to go back. I don't know if there's a way to post something like that here or not, but it was really cute.

The good news is the snow storm finally stopped its clockwise rotating around the lake and pushed over Lake Michigan. About Time! The bad news is we have been sending it Eastward for the last several days. Sorry.

Oh, we got it last night and it's still coming down (6-7 inches so far . . . heavy, wet snow). Just finished shoveling front steps. I'll walk to a bus stop in a little while and just wait for whatever bus driver decides to show up today and attempt to drive during this! HA! It's going to be a long commute into work, that's for sure. Not bothering with the driveway with the concrete snow boulders from the plows--I'll let hubby sleep. He knows I like walking in the snow, so no big surprise when he wakes up and I'm gone.

 

[MinnieM123]

So has Jack figured out how to open the new garbage can yet?

I'm rooting for you Jack!!!

No, he hasn't, but he finds other ways to get into mischief. It's his mission in life to try to get over on us.
