Here it comes again!

Okay, I know I'm looking like a broken record here, but this is the coldest, snowiest November I can remember! And you can see from the forecast, it ain't gonna get no better! We are currently under a winter storm warning. They say we'll get 3 inches today, 4 tonight and another 1 tomorrow. Looks like I'll be getting the snow blower out for the first time this year. YUCK!
So today I'll stay inside, (I've already cleaned the Salon this morning) and clean house. It does need it. Craig will do his usual bookwork, and make a Swiss Steak dinner with mashed potatoes and marinated Asparagus.
And go ahead Ken, Mark, John, Phillip, Patti, Randy, Sis, and any other warm weather readers, go ahead and gloat over our weather misfortunes. I can take it!

What was I thinking!

On Thanksgiving Day morning, we had our coffee, read the paper, and looked through all the ads for the day after. Since we work on Fridays, we never get the chance to go our and shop the day after Thanksgiving. And usually, we never see anything worth getting up for that early for anyway. But I noticed in the Staples ad they were
selling a 8 gig flash drive, normally
$44.99 for only $12.99.
They also had blank DVDs ,
normally $26.99 for only $4.95.
And Staples was opening at 6 am.
I had to be to work at 7:30, so
I thought I'd swing by there
on my way to work and pick them up.
I got there Friday morning at 6:45.
The parking lot was jammed!
I thought they all must
be at the Walmart next door.
I walk in and the 6 checkout lanes snaked
half way back through the store!
This is a office supply store!
What were all these people buying?
Is ink jet paper the new Christmas must have?
I thought I'll never get out in time for
work with these lines, so I turned and left.
I mean the 2 items I wanted normally go on
sale for half price, So I'd only be saving about $20
on the 2. Definitely not worth standing in line for an hour.
And I'll probably find them on sale about that price
before Christmas with the way retailers are cutting prices this year anyway. Do any of you do this crazy Black Friday shopping?
I certainly won't again!

funny friday

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I did, I'm stuffed!
While the Turkey was cooking, and since I didn't want to watch the Lions (now 0-12) play, I went out and put away the deck furniture, and the grill and umbrella. Also got the rest of the leaves off the valleys on the roof. We are ready for winter.

Now it's back to work for me, so on with our ff.........





Why Some Men Have Dogs And Not Wives:


1. The later you are, the more excited your dogs are to see you.

2. Dogs don't notice if you call them by another dog's name.

3. Dogs like it if you leave a lot of things on the floor.

4. A dog's parents never visit.

5. You never have to wait for a dog; they're ready to go 24 hours a day.

6. Dogs find you amusing when you're drunk.

7. Dogs like to go hunting and fishing.

8. A dog will not wake you up at night to ask, If I died, would you get another dog??

9. If a dog has babies, you can put an ad in the paper and give them away.

10. A dog will let you put a studded collar on it without calling you a pervert.

11. If a dog smells another dog on you, they don't get mad. They just think it's interesting.


12. Dogs like to ride in the back of a pickup truck.



And last, but not least:



13. If a dog leaves, it won't take half of your stuff!

Have a great weekend!

Happy Thanksgiving

From Craig and I, Happy Thanksgiving!

yep! still cold

Good morning! Another snowy morning here. Only about an inch of snow on the ground. Made it to Muskegon and back. Roads got real messy as we got closer to Muskegon. Funny how they never send the plows out till way into the storm. It took a half hour to go 10 miles. They got around 2-3 inches. But we made it safe. Gave Mom a haircut, and took her out to Applebees for lunch, and then to the VFW for drinks. Had a nice visit. By the time we headed home, the snow had let up, and the roads were salted.
Today we'll probably take it easy, for tomorrow I've got a 12 hour day since we're off Thursday.
That's all I got for now!
