Morning all. Need to get moving. Only working a half day. Have a meeting that I am hoping will be productive.

I have a 6am appointment to get my taxes done, at least that job will be done. Yesterday I left work about mid day and came home and took a nap. I had reached the point of exhaustion and felt like I wasn't even sure I could walk. Was feeling better but then Mom called and she had soiled all her pants yesterday so I picked up some more pants at the house and went out and visited and picked up the laundry. Laundry is ready to go back today after work. Still tired today but not that bone numbing exhaustion that I was feeling yesterday.

Good Morning Kids! We've got a major storm heading our way tonight, so we're going to stock up on groceries. The weatherman is having a fit, because the winds here will hit at least 50-60 mph. That's nothing, being from the Midwest, but apparently here they close the bridges, and go into a panic...

Hello Everyone --
I NEED CAFFEINE. To I will take a very large cup to go.
The weather is beyond sucky here and I just need the pick up. Wondering how many rivers will flood during this whopper.

Good morning everyone. Yucky here too. 44* and drizzle. Possibly 2" of rain expected.

We've got a tornado watch now, until Midnight. The power flickered once, and the storm hasn't even gotten here yet. We did pick up some food from the grocery store that would be easy to eat, just in case we lose power. They don't do anything in a hurry down here, so if the power goes down, I expect it will stay down for awhile.

Good Morning Kids! Well, except for the power flickering several times, (and taking my computer down once), we got through the storm just fine. Happy Friday!

Today is my self declared day off from Mom. I did end up having to make a phone call to her which I didn't want to do. She will be released from the care facility early Thursday morning. Her post-op appointment is also Thursday morning. After that I will take her home. She is doing good they just want to do some more stair training before setting her free. I was going to go to the coast today and check out the king tide and enjoy lunch at my favorite seafood restaurant. The forecast is for 90% chance of rain and wind gusts up to 40mph. That didn't sound like a fun day to me so I'm staying home.

Hello peeps! Busy's windy day came here after it hit her town -- did some tree damage, but not much else. Miserable day yesterday but really nice today. Did my usual stuff this a.m., plus got a new watch battery. Running a load of laundry at the moment, perusing new competition opportunities and freelance stuff.

Good Morning Kids! NancysSummerSip , there was some damage West of us, but closer to the ocean there really wasn't any problem, to speak of. I've been tackling paperwork the last couple of days, which is why I haven't been on here much. Still got more to work on...

I was at the farmer's market and got quite a workout hauling my finds back to the car. I got bananas, mushrooms, corn, Brussels sprouts and peppers. The sprouts are for tomorrow's dinner (roasted) and DH loves the bananas from this particular stand. The shroons and peppers are going to be used with some leftover green beans for a pork and fried rice for tonight. I will shuck the corn and freeze for later use. I also got bagels, a semolina loaf and honey from my favorite honey dude. I know what you're thinking. But he's thin as a rail, missing most of his teeth and butt-ugly. He cultivates great bees and produces wonderful honey, though.

NancysSummerSip great breakfast. Pancakes with fruit sounds like a winner today. I am finally starting to feel semi-human again. I slept in yesterday, had a nap yesterday morning, and then slept 12 hours last night. I didn't go see Mom, if she really needed something she could call. My brother has been pretty consistent in visiting also. Time for some breakfast and then get laundry started. I will go see Mom this afternoon.

Good Morning Kids! We're doing t.v. church today. We found out the flu is going around our congregation, and I'm not willing to walk into a group who might be carrying it, anymore than I'd walk into a roomful of people with corona virus. Thanks for brunch, NancysSummerSip!

OK, peeps...the oven is cleaned up and I pulled a bucket of weeds while I was out there, including the ones in my garden patch. I won't plant for another month, in case we've got cold weather still out there. I also shucked a field's worth of corn for the freezer. Still have one load of laundry left and the kitchen floor to wash later.

Good Morning Kids! The sun is shining, and it's a beautiful Monday morning. However, it's supposed to be hotter than normal later this week, and we just might make another heat record. Hello global warming!

Yipee!!! Another morning of dense freezing fog. At least now the sun is starting to come up by the time I get close to work town so you see more than 5 feet in front of the car. I decided to take all of Thursday off instead of just the morning. With getting Mom checked out of the care facility and to the doctors afterwards both of us will probably need a nap.

Good Morning Kids! I've been up & doing stuff for awhile, I just forgot to check in. We've got sun right now, but there will be rain moving in later. Bluerobin, I have no doubt that Crabby is watching over you.

Can one of you please send all your rain in our direction. We have a serious rain deficit this year and I see drought conditions coming back (like don't wash your car, penalties for higher water use, increased water rates, etc.).
Oh and when we have enough water those rates never go down again. They go up because the "have to make sure they cover their overhead"
