12/16/24 - Donuts and Spring in December

Snow is almost all gone here, we have had warmer temps the last few days, in the 30s, no sun, but....snow is all gone. well, about 85% gone. Lot of green grass showing. Heck, 35 at 6:30 a.m. Had a restless night, kept waking up, and now have been wake since 4 a.m. Tis odd.......sky so bright then, and by 6:, pitch dark. Am guessing the moon is probably the reason. Probably in it's full moon phase, or close to it. Still cloudy and overcast. Supposed to snow, but with these kinds of temps, more likely rain. Everything very wet out, all the green grass is showing. Hope you are having better luck with the weather.
 
Morning all..... the BEAST had another weird night last night..... this morning around 6:30 he raced off the bed barking his fool head off. HB heard it too, sounded like someone was knocking on the front door.... no one was found but we were all awake. I was able to get back to sleep unlike the boys....
good for you rf... it's your day off, after giving it up for many times you do deserve to say no when you need a day off.
sunny day here, chilly but sunny, I'll take it.

Good Monday to all....
 
It has been pouring all day, 45, degrees, and as I have said before, glad to have the rain. Tomorrow will be warmer and then temps drop again.

rf: Good for you, taking care of yourself and not saying yes for a change. You have spoiled your workplace, they expect a lot of you.

Poirot: Hope you don't get too much rain.

Muzza: Sorry you probably won't have a white Christmas.

Robin: With THE BEAST, you don't need an alarm clock!

Everyone enjoy your day.

Rain and thunderstorms early this morning so no walk. It was 64 at 6. It's cloudy and 63 now.
It will be a little cooler tomorrow.

I got wet working at church this morning. Last week, they changed the security on the doors.
They had a keypad and you put in your own number in. Now it's something different, but a lot
of people weren't told an everyone had a hard time going in and out. Hopefully, they can
figure out something for me since you enter using an app on your smartphone and I don't
have one. I suggested maybe key if a card can't be used. The maintenance men have keys.
The internet was still off when I was there this morning.

I cleaned more of my bathroom after lunch. I'll finish tomorrow. Since I don't have Bible
homework, I can do other things in the afternoons for a couple of weeks.

rf, I'm glad you told the place no. I hope you're having a good day off.

Poirot, last night was the first night for the full moon.

robin, was it windy this morning? I was at church and thought someone kept knocking on the
front doors. I finally realized it was the wind rattling the doors.

Wilde Woman, I hope you're almost caught up on the rain.

I hope everyone has a good rest of the day.
 
Boy, sure is gloomy out, not even the moon shows up, so cloudy. And just 3 p.m. Tis wet everywhere, (snow melt & no sun to quickly dry it up) But it might have rained some during the night, not much, if it did. Or fine snow that melts when it gets down to the ground. LOL

Many of the neighbors here don't seem to be home (no lights on in the evening). And usually by now Christmas cards are arriving daily, at least l or two..........All last week, there was one!!! Don't know if folks just have not begun sending, (like me) or if it is something many are quitting doing. I do know I have lost a lot of my relatives who sent cards.......and then so many send internet cards. I do like to get them in the mail, but understand with postage constantly rising, not easy for folks like it used to be.

Am sure you all are getting decorations up, & the tree.....if you do that this time of year. Mine are up, but cards remain, plus the bills. LOL Take care........
 
Most of the people I used to exchange cards with have quit. I have too, except for the 3-5 people who still send them to me. Had intended to get those off last week but was sick so haven't yet.

Poirot, I think the moon was full a couple of nights ago. You still have green grass after the deep freeze and all that snow?

Kat, it's too bad life is getting more complicated for people who don't have smart phones (or in my case, have them but don't know how to use them). I hope you can use a key. Should be able to, since the maintenance men do.

Yesterday I thought I was well on my way to recovery but this morning I felt worse. Not in the awful pain but congestion and overall. I decided to go see the doctor, just to make sure my chest was okay. I was hoping he could tell me whether I'm contagious or not but he couldn't. He did test me for Covid and Flu, both negative. I think I'm too far along for anything like that to show up anyway.
 
I was late getting my cards out this year. I'll be sending more tomorrow and local
ones hopefully, Wed.

OC, I'm sorry your still feeling ill. I'm glad you went to doctor to get checked out.

rf, good luck with cleaning your trailer.
