    We went from brown to 1 foot of the white stuff. Today 52° with rain and thunderstorms, then down to a low of 15 tomorrow morning! :confused:

    Finished my CA-7 workers comp forms today. Took my pain meds, working on my 3rd mug of coffee.:)

    Submitted a manuscript to a publisher. Trying not to get my hopes up too much. I'm proud of myself regardless, though. I finished writing a full length novel, and I'm now working on the next one.

    slept while it was as warm as it is going to get, to avoid the cramps i'm starting to get in my legs, lying down at the coldest time of early morning.
    (the hvac does produce heat, it just doesn't throw it very fare into the rest of the room when the air outside is below freezing)

    Snow I can deal with but ice is a bitch which of course is exactly what we're expecting overnight in the form of freezing rain.

    You might want to consider buying a pair of those Boot traction anti slip crampons which stretch over your Footwear,

    I have no reason to, as I intend not to venture out at all, besides which we have no snow or freezing rain here, what we do have is fog and an outside temperature of + 7 o C.

    Sounds like themnax could use a pair, but yeah, at 44 F in dense fog a a nice wool sweater and a mac (a la Penny lane) should do the trick

    pumpkin pie for breakfast. bought one at the store yesterday.
    they didn't have any cool whip though. no snow this morning.
    the web is on its way, all nearly 400 failure modes of it.
    my dad thought power windows on a car were a needless failure mode.
    sure would have liked to have seen launch live for french guiana.
