Anty Jennie, Momma has always thotted one of the trabesties of translating the HP books to the movies was that all the great secondary character stories - like Neville's - gotted lefted out. 'Zactly. I love the movies, but they are so abridged that I tell everyone to PLEASE read the books, there is so much more of value in them.

That is a nice story, Miss Kathy

Good morning and thank you for the birthday wishes. Summer spent the weekend with our greyhound friend Lex and has been invited back for play dates since they had such a  good time together. It was glorious to have a change of scenery and I've been reminded that even tho we're still quarantining, it doesn't mean I have to sit in my house. I will be taking Summer for longer walks and  going for more car rides with her. Have a wonderful day everyone!

Hello my Friendlies!

Probly at least partly sunning today, then mostly sunning tamarrow.  Momma mite get some of the branches moved around more better so we can get to all our potty places.  The yard doods are spsosed to come this week, but she bets it will be next week till they can get to us.

OK.  I gots some pics of the storm and the afters.

This is when it was still just starting on Thirdsday nite.  It was mostly snow then cause the freezing rainings were the next day.

This is us looking at the sound of a car crash out on the hiway during last outs!!!!  It was alreaddy slikkery!

20210211_224318 by Greysmom6, on Flickr

This is early on Friedday.  The rainings would come down eether as little tiny ice pellets or likwid rainings that freezed rite away.  

20210212_163526 by Greysmom6, on Flickr

All day Friedday and then on Satidday it just kept raining pellets or getting more icings.  This is the two great big Camellias in frunt of our house (from inside, obveeyussly!  ) and they are bended over clear to the ground by the wayte of the ice.  They are still all bended over now even affer the ice has melted!!!  Momma thinks they mite looze them and that makes her sad cause they been here as long as they lived here.

20210213_081737 by Greysmom6, on Flickr

This is the pom tree.  You can see how much icing is all over it.  Oddly enuff, it bounced rite back affer the ice melted with no problems!

20210213_165802 by Greysmom6, on Flickr

This one is kinda hard to see.  It's all the ice that falled off the frunt trees during the melting, bringing all the branches with it.  It looked like a ice maker went crazy and barfed pieces of ice all over!!!!

20210215_131208 by Greysmom6, on Flickr

This is the back yard affer everything stopped falling.  It was kinda scary that morning, cause there'd be a big crash, then it sounded like a avalanche as the ice falled off on the roof.  We gots, maybe, 6 or 7 really big (like, 8 inches acrosst) limbs from the trees down, and lots and lots of smaller branches.  Including this one that falled and stuck rite in the ground!!!!

Oh Nancy...I'm so glad the Gua Sha & Accupuncture seems to have made a difference.  Hopefully it along with the new meds are the answer 

    AndiPants      That is a lot of ice for an almost tropical climate like yours!   Sure hope you get your furnace fixed soon.

I remember our '98 ice storm like it was yesterday... the sounds of hundreds of huge tree limbs snap-snap-snapping under the weight.  Horrifying! 

   Summer...  Expert roaching!

Yes please Jerilyn... I too would like to see a photo of Lilas pendant  

We are dug our from yesterdays snow and will now enjoy some + temperatures for a few days. 

And...Widget and a couple other horses at his barn are starting to shed

Ms. Lucy, doez guys need a swift kick in da pants. So do Ms. Ducky's shed guys. 

[Jenbo]

Good morning everyone! We're getting our carports painted today though it will likely take another 18 months before the entire complex has been painted. Most of the buildings are cream with dark green trim - very 80's - and the update will be dark cream buildings with white trim. We have a lot of just plain dirt patches too and we're hoping we can convince everyone to buy one bag of the same type of rocks to help with landscaping. Fingers crossed!

 

Hi ebereewun! how goes it? ebereewun staying warm and helfy? We sure hope so, habs a great day!

[greysmom]

Hello my Friendlies!

Sposed to be mostly sunnings today with just some hi cloudings coming and going.  But it is very foggy so far, so no sunnings at all this morning!  Plus also, it's very cold so the roads are kinda icy.

Miss Ivy, it sounds like *everybody* got torchoored at the vetamarian!!!!     Sorry you gots tonhave anuther dentill.   

GO MISS LOOSY!!!!

Miss Ducky!!  What's going on NAOWWWWW!????????

Mister Gino, are you sleeping in the living room all nite long??

Miss Wiki is getting her pakkige!  Sometime!

Miss Jenn had a nice birfday trip in the snowings!  Miss Summer made new friendlies!

Let's see....  Oh!  Momma had a sergery consult for her cats-in-her-eyes sergery yesserday affernoon.  The sergeon docter said they could probly do both eyes at the same time and correct her vision mostly - all for no extra munnies!  She was very essited about that!  Her eyes right now are -12.50 (Very near sighted.  Very very near sighted!) and he thinks they can get them to -1 or -1.5.  She would only hafta wear glasses to drive maybe.  She is very essited about that.  Very.  Essited.   

The yard clean up doods are sposed to be coming today.  Sometime.  We'll see if and when they show up!  Flizzie and Lilly would like to be able to run around and play chase again without jumping over logs and branches!  

Wishings for a wonderful Windsday for all my Friendlies!

Later Gaters!

For the first time since the heavy rain on Saturday (I think), I went into the shed to get the lawn mower. Saw a small puddle on the floor. Knot dog pee. Interior of the shed is unfinished (and will remain that way) and I could where water had been along the edge of that wall. There had been no standing water in the yard. Dr Ducky felt up over the window from the inside and there was water all along the upper part of the top of it, directly above the puddle on the floor. 

I noticed some manufacturer's drain holes inside the bottom slide track, which did no good for water getting in from higher up. Unless it's the roof I think not may just be that the window wasn't seated right.

So we look over to the other window. No drain holes along that bottom slide track. Track is full of water. Detective Ducky discovers that this window had been put in upside down.

Once again sloppy work by the initial installer. Another chore for the better/smarter installer, George, to fix on Friday. Hopefully it won't rain since they also have to paint a top coat for the whole shed, fix/replace the door/door frame, and now seal a leak and flip a window over. George looks a cross between Gordon Ramsey and Pig Pen from Charlie Brown, but he knows his stuff and he doesn't scream.

Didn't we have the That **** Won't Fly Consulting Company for Sherrie when she had her house built?  Maybe we need to resurrect it.

[Potomacpupsmom]

Ducky, that kind of incompetence is unbelievable.  I hope you informed the company of these recent findings.
