It's a hard freeze with most of the mud puddles containing a skim layer of ice. We get this maybe 7-10 days a year and this is one of those days. The grass is crunchy and everyone has there thick winter coats out. Hope yall have a great day and for goodness sakes, keep warm!” 5:22:35 AM 2/06/07 “Good morning, I worked night shift tonight so I am almost ready to go to bed myself. The temps during the last two days were in the 80's. Last night I sat on the porch at 3am and it was a beautiful 64 degrees, tonight it's cooler, 48 degrees. Hope everyone has a wonderful day!” 5:29:10 AM 2/06/07 Hugs. “Good morning. 51°F./11°C. in Melbourne, Florida. Today is the last day of this winter blast. Highs will return to the 70's tomorrow. I just need to spend my winters in the Rep. of Panama or someplace else, where it stays warm Ha! Once there I would likely climb up in the mountains to play in the snow. Have a great day.” 7:03:28 AM 2/06/07 “YES! We got the day off school today! WOOT! Have a good one and stay warm!” 7:20:14 AM 2/06/07 “-22 last night, -17 right now; looks like we're headed for a warm cell. I started doing my taxes yesterday. This will be the tax year from hell because of all the different property things I've been involved in. It's fun learning new things, so this should really be a hoot.” 7:49:27 AM 2/06/07 “Mornin' Frost on my windshield this mornin'.” 7:57:40 AM 2/06/07 “Another snow day for us too! Which is good, because G is not feeling well, and I feel absolutely awful today. This is the first time I've felt seriously like throwing up. I thought I was getting over this stage, but I guess not. Think we're gonna go meet with our kitchen lady today and finalize our design. We made our first official kitchen purchase last night - a faucet! We got quite a deal on it. Stay warm, and stay healthy everyone!” 9:44:04 AM 2/06/07 “DIdn't Abby get an Easy Bake Oven for her birthday? They're being recalled! http://www.cnn.com/2007/HEALTH/02/06/toy.oven.recall.ap/index.html” 9:46:30 AM 2/06/07 “yikes.” 10:00:35 AM 2/06/07 “Woke up to 20F on Keel Mtn in North Alabama. When I went to Starbucks across the street this morning, I had to wear a friggin jacket. What is this world coming to? I mean, this is Alabama dang it !” 10:09:39 AM 2/06/07 “I have to take my outdoor cats to the shelter today, since I can't take them with me. I'm extremely unhappy about it.” 10:10:30 AM 2/06/07 “Blah... Be happy knowing that you are being responsible and doing the right thing. Sorry to hear the news though.” 11:02:36 AM 2/06/07 “(I'm starting to understand why treebait threatened me about implying the cat lady tag) I'm sorry you can't take them all, treebait. last edited: 2/06/07 11:06:57 AM” 11:04:23 AM 2/06/07 “Thanks for the link SG. The easy bake we bought looks so much a microwave that Emma calls it her Easy Bake Microwave. Sounds like we have a different model.” 11:21:04 AM 2/06/07 “Tree, sorry you have to do that. :(” 11:46:09 AM 2/06/07 “Sorry to hear about that tb.” 11:55:19 AM 2/06/07 “Thank you SG. I've already called for the back-ordered part that will make it all safe again. Treebait, here's hoping there's a home for each of them. That's a hard thing to do.” 1:09:27 PM 2/06/07 “It's gone from an iffy morning to a completely #&%!$ty afternoon. The place I was going to take the cats doesn't do rescues because of their investors getting angry. The animal shelter downtown has distemper going through their ac system so no cats at all are making it out alive. Also, all black cats are put down immediately anyways because of superstitions, as are all black kittens. No exceptions. Our humane society here is now a no kill facility, but they're usually full and overflow guess where? Downtown to the animal shelter. One of the people I spoke with recommended putting ads in the newspaper for the cats. This is just terrible.” 1:42:21 PM 2/06/07 “Sounds worse than terrible -- The situation with black kittens is positively Medieval.” 1:48:50 PM 2/06/07 “Kill all black cats regardless? I don't even like kitties and think that's ridiculous. I guess in their experience they don't get adopted. What a shame.” 2:03:05 PM 2/06/07 “It looks like it will snow in the mountains...but then again it has looked that way almost every day and no snow yet (below 5000)” 2:05:26 PM 2/06/07 “Dang it treebait, that sucks.” 2:09:43 PM 2/06/07 “Or they think if they ARE adopted, some freaks will get hold of them(?) I've heard of places where they won't adopt the black cats out anytime near Halloween for that reason, supposedly.... but to put them all down, automatically?? The whole situation is just horrible. Good luck Treebait!” 2:12:27 PM 2/06/07 “I've called afew rescue organizations around here. Had to leave messages at every single one, so now I'm waiting for callbacks. Whoever will take them is getting a good-sized monetary donation.” 4:01:02 PM 2/06/07 “A quick hug and hello from Lower Alabama ...where it has been really cold...but a wonderful warm day today!!!!!” 4:04:40 PM 2/06/07 Hugs. “Good morning. 45°F. in Melbournd, Florida, going to 72°F. today. The sun is up and shining brightly in a clear, blue sky. The damp, gray, winter sky has cleared the area. It's a beautiful day for almost any activity. Try to get out there. And gee, you sure look good this morning. Time for the Resource Cafe. Enjoy your day.” 6:53:01 AM 2/07/07 “Treebait I'm sorry to hear about your trouble. Poor kitties. Morning all.” 7:01:18 AM 2/07/07 “I've already dropped my car off off at the dealership for some much needed maintenance, so I'm carless for most of the day. That should help me get some stuff done around here. HPM's supposedly getting internet hookup and the washer and dryer delivered and installed today. Fun times there. I haven't had instant oatmeal in a long time. I've been making the real stuff. So this morning I'm using up instant oatmeal I found in the pantry that wasn't past its expiration date. This stuff is gluey nasty. I definitely prefer the real thing. Laurel doesn't seem to care either way. She's just mad because I got her up really early to get my car to the dealership by 7 am.” 7:03:45 AM 2/07/07 “I would be grumpy too. ;-) Mornin'” 7:42:34 AM 2/07/07 “Morning. I hate the instant stuff too. I gotta have the old fashioned stuff! Not that it would fill me up today, I've eaten 4 times in 4 hours. Lunch is still 2 hours away. Hope I make it. Weather is about the same here, but most schools are in session today. Good thing, because I lost out on making $150 this week. I was hoping for a 2-hour delay this morning, but that didn't happen. Rest of the week is supposed to get warmer. Happy Black History Month!” 8:21:28 AM 2/07/07 “-22 today. Winter continues. The heater dude should arrive tomorrow and start installing my wood stove and furnace. I've got a good bit of dry oak stacked about, but not enough to last until the thaw. High fat meals just come naturally this time of year; not a good thing:(” 8:51:12 AM 2/07/07 “The sun is out here in north Alabama. The temp is milder than yesterday and I had a pleasant walk across the street to get coffee. No meetings today on my schedule...wtf?? Maybe I can shut my office door and surf the web all day??? HHhmmm???” 10:06:07 AM 2/07/07 “It's beautiful here! We got about 4" of snow and it's in the teens but the sun is shining today. The snow is that nice, dry squeeky powder that is just great for everything but snowballs. the roads are a mess though. Jackasses in the ditches everywhere! This was the first real snow I've driven my Toyota Yaris in and the little thing is like a tank.” 11:23:02 AM 2/07/07 “TGIT?” 6:44:43 AM 2/08/07 “Morning! What is everyone staying in bed today? Well, I am now in a cast up to my knee for two weeks to start. My foot is sprained in two places, has nerve damage, is fractured, and it got hit so darn hard the marrow is swollen. Our big trip next month is off, we have plane tickets and everything. I can't work and have lost exactly $122.oo since being casted yesterday. This just sucks! Could be worse right.....like a cast to the hip or something? Okay, that's my official complaint right there. If you guys see too many more tell me to shut it. So, nothing going on today except sitting around. Maybe I'll try and figure out if I can drive with this enormous thing on my foot, or with my left foot. Wish me luck!” 6:50:02 AM 2/08/07 “What the hell, Sass?” 6:59:46 AM 2/08/07 “That cast would not keep you from the trip I am taking....Florida and the Bahamas...you need to make injury trips and injury-free trips...always have a back up beach.” 7:00:49 AM 2/08/07 “sorry to hear about your broken foot Sass since trouble comes in threes I wonder who the next TTer will be to break a bone - first Chili now Sassafras next ...” 7:12:29 AM 2/08/07 “It's a long story Wolfeyes. It involves a twenty-something guy, a three foot long log and spinning. Maybe a back-up beach is a good idea. I could definately get my bikini on over this dumb hunka fiberglass. I need to take a look see and figure out where Frontier flies.” 7:15:42 AM 2/08/07 “crap! Here's hoping for a speedy recovery! (in the meantime, I'm keeping a low profile -- don't want to be #3!)” 7:24:35 AM 2/08/07 “It's a long story Wolfeyes. It involves a twenty-something guy, a three foot long log and spinning. Um....3 feet long!!!!!!!! Spinning!? I don't even wanna know...just keep checking Frontier's beaches and make the best of the cast along.” 7:28:42 AM 2/08/07 “So Wolfeyes, do I understand you correctly? You want me to come along on vacation with you and S can stay home? ;) heehee, I kinda made the log part sound nasty didn't I? I should write porn. last edited: 2/08/07 7:30:52 AM” 7:29:09 AM 2/08/07 “Sorry Sass. Can't think of anything smart or funny to say without coffee, just "sorry". TGIT = Thank Got It's Tilt? That lad has a healthy ego (VBG). The stove dude should be here in about an hour to begin installing ductwork. Maybe in a week I can start burning wood instead of that damn pricey propane. Stay safe everyone (since HOI put a curse on us).” 7:32:22 AM 2/08/07 “Um, no, Sass. You cannot come along...this is a honeymoon kinda thing...LMAO! And yes, you should write porn...spice this place up a bit!” 7:34:59 AM 2/08/07 “Oh come on, it migt be fun and give me material.” 7:36:33 AM 2/08/07 “Well, here ya go then.  ”7:37:51 AM 2/08/07 “Oh no, I feel awful for you. So the Grand Canyon is off? I don't know what to say. What can I do?” 7:39:10 AM 2/08/07 “Mornin' DANG, Sass!!!!!! last edited: 2/08/07 7:46:19 AM” 7:44:44 AM 2/08/07 “It's ok...she is looking for a beach now where she can kick her cast up, make Birch run back and forth to the bar for those fruity drinks and she is going to write porn. And Birch can FINALLY wear his thong! last edited: 2/08/07 7:58:09 AM” 7:57:10 AM 2/08/07 “Sounds like they need to go to the Hedonism club in Jamaica.” 8:01:20 AM 2/08/07 Jump to Page << prev
