Coffee anyone ?

[Mini Horses]

I'm on my second cup and feeling some anxiety for you! This backing up close date isn't helpful in this case. Yep, pack and sort when you unpack.

At least I have better weather here. It's 66 right now, rain coming and warmer. Then, overnight....drops to low 30s, possible flakes will arrive. No accumulation on warm ground. Geesh.... You don't know how to dress. The winds are about 30mph out there right now.

My truck suddenly has a "front end" issue! Yesterday big shimmy, need to go to a mechanic for some explanation. A gremlin infestation? I suspect something "broke lose" and needs to be found at once. Don't need this!

Better have more coffee....gonna be one of those days.....yep!

Morning all this house isn't meant for extreme tempatures. My room as always is the warmest so the kids beds in here with me so i know they are warm. The rest of house with heaters on,full blasts and high heat are only 60 so feels chilly I don't know if they were colder before the Sun cane up,or not. I am back in bed cuddling with baby while the oven heata up.i am,not a fan of winter.

We loaded up yesterday, will load the freezer and my bed this morning, then hit the trail for Groveton. Closing got pushed back a few days, the appraiser didn't turn in his report yet. Things are moving along, house is practically empty. I have my recliner, chest of drawers (got to have clothes) and lots of little things I have to ferry down to Groveton. Plus still lots of outside stuff, dogs and sheep. Have to get pens up for sheep and dogs so I can move them. Won't move them until I'm completely cleared out of the house. That shouldn't take long, but have to have fence and pens to put them in. LOL

Another tire and a couple bushings, adjustments, fixed the truck. . Overcast, cool and breezy but good. Chores done. 5 eggs already. Good girls! Two days at home . Maybe I will shop for a phone today -- maybe. Still fighting that. So many other things to do.

Watched an interesting garden program during morning coffee. Of course that stimulated the planting hormones! Seeds are now in my focus...again. I need to start plants.

Oops got a redundant ^. Still don’t have power. Abbot says power grid performed perfectly and all problems are because of local providers. He may lose some votes in this county. We did fine as did animals. More later.

Saturday afternoon it still was. I could hear trees snapping and ice falling. It’s beautiful with the sun sparkling. A slight breeze makes the coated branches sound like tiny bells. Then the winds picks up, the tiny bells go straight to angry, clacking hiss. There’s a loud pop/groan and a transformer explodes. You are out of winter wonderland and back to reading apologetic texts from the power company. Time to sell hubs on that generator.

Weatherwise it's ok here. Soon to be 32 out and going to low 40s. The winds have slacked to a strong breeze -- better! There's a rain event coming up from south along coast, so rain tomorrow, then steady warming to our "normal" low 50s for this time of year. Normal sounds good but not when it's the average of a 30 day and a 70 day.

News here in VA has report of shootings in TX! Someone took out a family, then self. What's with all the guns to resolve issues....what happened to fist fights?! Plus shootings here, locally, into cars, injuring people. So not necessary.

Sun is out beautifully. Need to go out there soon.
