Coffee anyone ?

I'm thankful for my two beautiful soon-to-be children and my wonderful wife, feels like we never left the "honeymoon stage." I'm thankful for a beautiful property I can call my own and the journey to self sufficiency. And most importantly, I'm thankful for life. Happy Thanksgiving. God bless.

Here it is -- black Friday. Never more than leftover eating day for me. To keep the tradition going, I had a big slice of pumpkin pie with my coffee! . So good!! My DD said yesterday that was her plans for breakfast today, also. She had to be at work at 5 today, hr earlier than normal....so 3am get up. . Sorry.

A little overcast, has been some very light rain....supposed to move out in couple hours with sunshine behind. I can deal with that. I'm not rushing out there now. Everyone is fine.

Better go empty the dishwasher! At least it's all clean.

Still snowing.

Up until Wednesday we had had just an inch or 2 of snow... then several days later an inch or 2 more....so very little shoveling...no plowing.... good and relaxing.

Wednesday night it started and it still isn't done.

We had over a foot yesterday at Thanksgiving....

So maybe another foot today.....

Kid #3 is doing all of the plowing with the new bobcat and it makes me antsy.... never had him plowing before... not sure if he is doing everything I want done....guess I need to figure out how to run the thing.

Blast all.... I miss the truck!!!!

Kid #3 the mechanic?? Trust him, he'll do a good job!

I couldn't do that snow -- especially knowing it's just the start of several months of it! 3 days of it on the ground here is too much. . It's 27 outside this morning and those are Jan/Feb temps! Maybe I slept thru Dec!?? At only 60 inside I was quick to up the heat. Gotta take the cold off. I don't like it! These temps are like -20 below norm.

With that update on misery, you can bet I'm drinking HOT coffee.. Fresh pot, help yourself. Even some pumpkin pie left if you're hungry. I'll bundle up and do chores shortly...beyond that, it's an inside morning. When it warms to 40ish, I'll reevaluate.

I’m sitting in bed, nice and warm with a cup of coffee on my makeshift nightstand-a bucket- at my new to me house. Going to get some more painting done this morning. It’s 37 in Lindale but only 45 here. This part of East Texas has mosquitoes on warm winter days, if that tells you anything. LOL There is Southeast Texas, that goes to the Gulf coast. There is Northeast Texas, that goes up to Arkansas and Deep East Texas, which is in between. I’m in Deep East Texas. High of 55 today and 90% rain. Going to my sister’s this afternoon, spend the night, then go home in the morning. Y’all have a great rest of the weekend!

45° here and sunny. Hubby made more coffee. We are going to take down some more trees and do a burn pile today. Probably have hotdogs for dinner and s'mores for dessert. Have a good day everyone!

Is that close to the Big Thicket? Or us the Big Thicket more south?

I always thought east Texas looked very much like Louisiana.
