Critterfixer Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 The forecast is calling for a half-inch of snow for us on Saturday night. There go the peaches this summer. Hopefully the blueberries have held off blooming. :glare: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Noooooooooooooo!! Not the peaches!! Hang in there, Blueberries! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 First they were saying less than an inch of snow (an inch here would be pretty significant) but now accuweather is saying 1-3". Go ahead and snicker and sigh in an exasperated manner, JJM. You've been through enough and have earned it. :D 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I feel kind of like a wimp complaining about snow, ice and cold when JJM is living out Snowbound. But I do so love a juicy peach in summer, and it irks me every time the stupid Southern winter returns in the spring to ruin the fruit crop. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) The dishes are done! Now, I'm gonna go brush my teeth, put my cozy Jammies on (soon it will be too warm for cozy Jammies) and go do some Latin and then immerse myself in Susan Branch's book about her escape to Martha's Vineyard. I love that book. I really do! Edited March 11, 2017 by KrissiK 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Good Morning! Renai and Junie, I hope you are asleep now! Dd18 has a callback today for the part of Belle (and probably others).

Junie Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I slept well last night, but I woke up early. Ds16 is taking the SAT this morning. It might end up being an interesting day here. As I was reading my devotions this morning. I mis-read the words of Amos. He was writing about the "desolate wilderness"; I thought at first that it said "chocolate wilderness." :lol: Oh what a difference a few letters make. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go ahead and snicker and sigh in an exasperated manner, JJM. You've been through enough and have earned it. :D Hmm, how does Accuweather do in your area? In these parts, I refer to it as "Inaccuweather." :glare: I feel kind of like a wimp complaining about snow, ice and cold when JJM is living out Snowbound. But I do so love a juicy peach in summer, and it irks me every time the stupid Southern winter returns in the spring to ruin the fruit crop. A minor correction: We are rapidly turning into Slush-n-Icebound. Which is worse. :glare: And the thought of no fresh peaches in the summer is tragic. :glare: (I don't have any trees, but there's plenty in the region.) Alex is a genius. He gets in from me. Slash totally agrees with me. :coolgleamA: I've been awake for the past three hours. This is getting old. Urgh. Last night after waking at 3:30, I actually went back to sleep. Which is good, because facing the day at 3:30 am is rather dark and dreary and makes for a long, grumpy day. :glare: The chance for snow has decreased dramatically, though accuweather says it's going to start snowing in 41 minutes. See "Inaccuweather," above. :glare: Hmm...I'm developing a theme. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I am back from working. They dropped our snow out of the forecast. Now it is just going to be miserably cold and dismally damp.

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 A FAFSA on medical billing offices who keep billing us twice. And adding late fees when they've already cashed our check.

I was trying to figure out why I was bothered so much by such requests and I think this is why.

I was trying to figure out why I was bothered so much by such requests and I think this is why. (This is regarding local discussions on social media regarding local politics.)Yes, this is dishonest. The only exception being if the person actually does agree, but does not have a way with words. I would be highly unwilling to speak out if I didn't believe what I was saying. Most of the time, I don't have the gumption to fight for what I do believe. Sent from my HTCD160LVW using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
