Nineteen degrees overnight — brrrr. Sheet day; ugh, i love when it’s done, but those darn flannel sheets are a bear to work with, they stick to everything. And so many layers in winter; sheet, electric blankie, fat comforter; UGH. Been trying to wean the ferals off DST, but their tummies just don’t want to adjust. And i was late because of sheet day. They were noisily, meowing/growling at me while pacing the front porch. The handsome black tom thought getting into the house was the better part of valor; he was wrong. 😄 Chuck made chicken fried steak with mashed… Read more »

Yummy, one of my favorite meals that Chuck made.😘
Poor pets they don’t get the time change. I take it slow in increments of time. I have to adjust myself too, keep saying ‘ well it really is 5 o’clock before they changed it.
Changing sheets if not fun I agree!🥴
@Beryl –
Did you see this in the November 9th SPO Newsletter? It was information related to your question about why feeding Deer is paused for a period of time.

I think I figured out which flight Ardy is on. If I’m tracking the correct flight on flightaware.com using my iPad Pro it departed Sacramento, CA 4 minutes early at 4:56am PST with an ETA in Denver, CO on time around 8:30am MST.
If I tracked the correct flight, Ardy s plane safely arrived in Denver at 8:11am MST (per flightaware.com).
I wonder what time Ardy’s flight from Denver to Tucson is scheduled to depart?
I made it home!!!! At 1:30 in the afternoon yesterday
Yay 🙏🏻❤️
Good Morning! Sunny and 39 only going up to 48 with breezy conditions (10 to 20 mph with higher gusts). We have a Freeze Warning for tonight with the low forecast to be 27 🥶
Today will be laundry day.
Prayers for Ardy to have safe and timely flights today 🙏🏻
Good morning Kathy,
We are both having the ‘cold event’ it sounds like. It will be in the low 30’s in the mornings through Wednesday it looks like.
Pam said she is flying out at 5am from CA, I pray all goes well for her traveling today.🙏
Yes, I had read Pam’s update in the basement about Ardy’s flights today. Since it’s now around 4:35 AM in CA I am hoping and praying her flight to Denver is on time. I don’t know what time her Denver flight is scheduled to depart.
We have not heard from Ardy here, so I guess we do not know her flight plans.
She messages on messenger !
Hi Beryl
Have there been any updates from Ardy on messenger regarding her flight from Denver to Tucson? I don’t use that.
Good morning, I woke just after 11pm with a booming thunder and the rain started. It did not rain long but this front brought in the cold, a freeze warning is out for tomorrow morning. It is 53 here now so not cold yet. Yesterday was a gorgeous day, we decided to go to Surfside Beach. I love this public beach, most are so controlled by the condos and hotels all on the beaches now. From Nov.1st to the end of February you can park free at this beach and you can bring you dog. We had fun walking the… Read more »
Shark on the beach….
Wow!!😂
😱😂
Hi Jenn
Yes, Surfside Beach is a favorite of mine. I haven’t been there in over 20 years but I’m glad to know it’s still a nice public beach minus all of the condos and hotels like some of the other beaches.
That is fun to know you have been there Kathy. This is the time of year I love going to the beach, not the crowds to deal with and walking in the sand on these Fall days is perfect to me.🤗
I always preferred this time of year as well to visit the beach. Two other beaches that I hope are still not commercialized are Garden City, SC and Sunset Beach, NC.
Good Monday morning.
Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam.
A cool and wet morning just been for the paper in a heavy storm and more to come today.
The rest of the week is not looking any better either.
Still above average temp though which is a plus.
Could be seeing some colder stuff in the following week.
A high of 54F today,
Hope you all had a restful Sunday.😀😘
Good morning Ice,
Happy you were able to get your paper with the bad weather.
Too bad it is going to be rainy for the week.
Hi Jenn.
Would have loved to have been on that beach yesterday.
The one good thing is the high temp’s for the time of year.
Saves the CH boiler from firing up too often.😀😘
It seems crazy it was so warm the past 3 days, just like summer, then this sudden cold snap but I did so enjoy the past few days summer like weather.😊
Walking on a beach to me is pure joy. Danny loving it meeting people and doggies.
Hi Ice
I had a very restful Sunday and I hope you did too 😘
I’m glad you made it safely back home after driving in the heavy storm to get your paper 🙂
Hi Karthy.
I always make Sunday my special rest day.
Still raining as I type, just looks so miserable outside.🙄😘
Hello…a quiet afternoon here…no caregiver so DH is at his dad’s…my sister and mom went out of town, not sure when she’ll be back here..might see if DH wants to go out to eat when he gets home but maybe he’ll be tired or have things to do. Yesterday and last night was cold and rainy, today is grey and windy…
