It's a New Year, January Coffee, Tea and miscelanous stuff

[Russ T Chambers]

Made it through my first-ever surgery yesterday.  Waited 'til I turned 71 to get it over with.  Minor sinus operation, But it still managed to take up 7 hrs.  (2hrs prep, 1 hr. delay, 1 hr. actual surgery and two hrs. recovery).  Now I've got about a month wait for the dental implant anchors, then another month or so for the dentures.

THEN IT'S STEAK TIME!!!!!!!!!

19 degrees with a windchill of 12 degrees,Supposed to get a Nor'Easter Sunday night into Monday morning,8-12 inches of the evil white stuff.

Snowed here some today, not a lot on the ground but had snowflakes as big as the ones we made in 1st grade.

I'm having the best time since covid reared its ugly side...
The Trail Ride is a great time the weather BEEE UU TTT Ful, Temps in the 60's, not a cloud in the sky 


I have the Museum represented with a small sampling display; attendees are very receptive.
I'm having fond flashbacks memories back to the rides I use to do. Camping last night was wonderful.

I met and had great conversations with quite a few good folks. The photos are at the Friday midday, Burgers & such lunch break
There were about 100 riders Friday, the big day is Today with a bonfire & BBQ tonight, Live music and Line Dancing.
It's gonna be a hoot.

Shoveled about 4"-5" of snow off the drive. Fingers are stabbing needles as they warm up again.  (And yes, I was wearing gloves. Not the warmest pair I own, so learned a lesson.)
Sipping stout hot tea with honey now.

Today I'm gonna make a big pot of chicken and vegetable soup from scratch. May even bake some powder biscuits to go with. Now that the driveway is cleared it's an indoor leisure Winter Saturday.
Everyone take care.

[DeaconKC]

Good morning, coffee's hot and ready, help yourselves. 40 here right now, raining and temps dropping, supposed to get 1-6 inches of the white stuff by tomorrow. Getting to church will be interesting as we have quite a slope on our entry! Major, that looks great, enjoy!

[DeaconKC]

This sums it up

Shoveled about 4"-5" of snow off the drive.

Being banned from that activity does not hurt my feelings one bit, other things I do miss, oh and not only did John get the sidewalk done he cleaned off the car and salted the steps.   $50 dollars a month no matter what including mowing, trimming and such, if he thinks he didn't do enough he finds stuff to do, if it snows a lot though I feel guilty and give him extra.   Nope, not a kid, just an old hippie with a good heart in more than one way.

Steak Banquet tonight, Blue Grass & Country bands, Line dancing, the trail ride has been FUN...
Hadn't had this much fun in some time.
Rode this morning about 7 miles, and then set up the Museum display @ 3PM for the party.

Weather is to turn rough in the morning, with rain squalls & storms ahead of the cold front, I spoke to several who are pulling out tonight. I packed it in at 8PM and got home a bit ago....

[DeaconKC]

Well, it's down to 31 here now and shifting from sleet to snow. Y'all stay warm and safe.

[Major E A Sterner]

4 degrees and dropping, Nor'Easter on its way.Y'all stay warm.

[Major 2]

35 years of Wedded bliss, today....Amazed SHE has put up with me all these years; D

The front is here, and it's raining, we are getting into the mid -30's tomorrow morning.
That is far cry from what you Pards are seeing, but its chilly for this flatland, sand in shoe region.

Stay warm

Congrats.

Decided to stay home this morning. Don't need to infect anyone at church with this cold.

'Tis -4 and overcast. "Cloudy. A chance of snow showers in the morning  then snow showers likely in the afternoon. Little or no snow accumulation. Highs in the lower 20s. Southwest wind 5 to 10 mph. Chance of snow 60 percent."

Good morning, getting ready for Church. 30 here and sunny, the predicted 1-6" of snow turned out to be a light dusting when done. Major congrats and Slim get well quickly.

[The Trinity Kid]

Morning all.

It's a balmy 25 degrees and sunny here. It's supposed to be that way through the next week, with a couple brief excursions above freezing. Then it's going to get cold they say. They don't know how cold, but February is the coldest month here, so I'm expecting below zero.

On the docket today, I have refrigerator cleaning, carpet vacuuming, and dinner making. I got a corned beef roast last night that I'm going to cook up and make sandwiches with. Though I probably will make some potatoes with it. I don't have any cabbage though.
