Joe, we had a crazy amount of snow in December and brutal cold and then January was more like early spring. I'd love a hot summer!

Happy Groundhog Day, ya'll puppy

We should all watch Groundhog Day...I will never forget the first time hubby saw that movie he watched it 3 times back to back.

It be fair and bright here, so according to the rhyme, winter will be back. But since winter never really made it here this year, can it really come back?

Joe, that dog joke is terrible....makes me sad wink

Ana, I'm always crabby when someone wakes me. You can have our hot summer. It will last 9 months. lol

Gerry, I'm heading to the coffee. Thanks.

Connie, Biscuits and Gravy joy

Gail, hope your day is fantastic.

Today is START to put up the new fence day. Wish me luck! 11 panels, 10 metal post holders to hammer in, 87 feet of various state of rotting neighbor's fencing to remove and somehow find a way to 'stack' it on his property or make a neat pile. Gonna be not fun, but it will all be over soon and I can sit back and admire my handiwork. I figure 2 weeks max to finish, because my neighbor who is helping me a TON has a hurt back and doesn't feel up to par and we can only get about 1 hour's work done per day. Feel bad for him, but he's doing well and I couldn't do this alone. woozy

How was your day, Space?

We are off to Bible Study. Son is home sick so he can keep an ear out for thunderstorms and dog sit if necessary.

Wow! We got FOUR of the 8 foot fence panels in place today. I'm amazed. For some reason, we both managed to fight through our various back problems and things went better than I anticipated. AND because of all the recent rains, the hammering in of those 2 foot long metal fence post holders, was sooooo easy. Went right in without hardly breaking a sweat. I'm really happy. We finished the day by me taking him out for a nice fish dinner at Long John Silver's. Tasted really good since I had forgotten to eat lunch. Geez. When do I ever forget to eat? duh
