    Morning old people. Woke up to 33*, supposed to get to 41* today. Supposed to get snow tonight with temperatures at 27*. Long as we don't lose power I'll just sit inside and watch it snow. Y'all have a safe and blessed day.

    Good morning Older people, can you believe... a morning temp. of 21F! In Central Wis. that's good. Looking at the rest of the day.. 32F for a high, incredible! I will be enjoying such weather in the comfort of my dump truck, listening to the tunes, Oldies of course. Everybody have a great day!

    That's a shame, I feel I guess sorry for you. You can jump in the 4Runner and get away from that, not long you could be by Big Bear! Have a day.

    Annual primary care doctor appointment on Monday, he hasn’t asked for some fasting bloodwork, he usually does. I have asked about it online, today I will make a phone call, it’s Thursday right, doc appointment on Monday o_O

    Heading into work soon. 11°. We're installing a refrigeration system for a walk-in cooler at a Mary Jane operation. Everyone is high on it opening this year.

    Maybe to keep the hash brownies fresh??? Haha! It's a full grow and sell place. They are doing it up right. Going to have heavy security I know that.

    They sell you brownies that give you the munchies so you buy more brownies, sounds like a good business model :yes:

    Greetings and good AM everybody! We're starting out at 8° this morning and heading to a sunny 30° later today. I could see a cooler at the Weed Shop, most of them around here sell "infused" beverages, so right next to the brownies you can grab yourself a drink o_O The 4R enjoyed its bath and is now ready for another round of snow (this weekend & next week)! Y'all have a very fine day and keep them B/Ps in check! ENJOY

    (snicker!) I see what you did there. :)

    Good morning, oldsters! It's barely 32° here this morning, with a predicted high temp of 34°. I'm really getting spoiled by the heated seats and heated steering wheel.

    We've had Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, a good freeze, and a couple of good snows. I'm done with it now. Let's get back to warm weather and summer fun.

    Got the "your key battery needs to be replaced” notice today. It’s a few months over 3 years old. Is that normal? I don’t remember ever having to change a key fob battery for my vehicles before. My last one, a silverado was 9 years old when we departed.

    Fasting bloodwork sucks! I've told the doc different times.."if you need a fasting blood sample make sure it's necessary, because the one habit I have is eating good food!" Good luck on the appt.

    That's different, my fasting blood draws always say you can have coffee or water, no juices or food. Anyway, give 'em hell!

    Good morning people of the older generation, I'm starting to think the ground hog may be a little off, not certain but the barrage of nice weather this week is nice. The young fellas I work for took full advantage of the 'nice' weather, 350 miles in the dump truck and never left the county! Oh well, I signed up for that.. I guess. Have a great day everybody.

    Not too much happening in my small speck in the world...still cold and will be in the Arctic Deep Freeze later today and a bit more snow tomorrow. Granddaughter's birthday this weekend. That'll be fun and a decent ride to my daughter's place. Cheers y'all and be sure to ENJOY!

    I hate getting blood work done, I have rolling veins and usually get stuck 2 - 3 times before they get a vein. Sometimes I get lucky and only get 1 stick.
