Today got up to about 50 and partly cloudy, alittle on the breezy side but they predict 60's for the weekend,, Went to Wallyworld today, had to do a few things while I was out.. Walked down to Walgreens then back and get afew things.. (course I had to stop at my favorite eatery, say, "hi' to a few people) Then it was back home where I didn't really feel like doing anything, so I just kinda laid around the rest of the day watching 'Youtube'!. Got a package from a friend of mine from down  in Fla. it arrived a few days after Valentine's day, I got a card inside saying,  "This is your  Christmas,  New Year and Valentine's Day gift" (lol) but what was really great was I just bought a few things from 'Amazon' just two days before so when I got back, (I went to Walllyworld on that day too) I seen three packages sitting in-front of my door!. (kinda felt like Xmas) Yesterday got up to about 40 but the wind made it alittle cooler out, we had off 'n' on snow showers, but they only lasted like ten seconds !. I walked up, had to get a refill on my prescription then on my way back, I stopped at Subway and had a salad that was  sandwiched in-between a subroll with ham and mayo!.. (lol)

Last few days have been pretty nice, blue skies (or mostly blue) comfortable day time highs for this time of year, no rain, I think yesterday got all the way up to 60!. Last Thursday I went to Wallyworld, got one of those cameras to take a few pictures of the old town here gonna send'm to a friend of mine down there in Fla..... (just sittin here blogging waiting on my couch to be delivered).....Today and tomorrow they predict rain, so I suppose it's a good day to watch the few movies I got from the library..(and wait for my couch)..I try to make it a practice now to check out the library and see what new dvds they got in, I prolly already saved about $12.. Someone told me about the movie, 'Judy' (Renee Zellweger) about the life of Judy Garland, which really wasn't exactly (ME) and 'Fighting with my Family' (Dwayne Johnson, Nick Frost) which was (Me)!. So yeah, I think I'll do that, just watch some movies/videos!!.... (and wait for my couch)

The last few days have been pretty chilly, I think Thurs. high was like 19 and yesterday was I guess middle 20's, they predict a gradual warming thru early part of this week, with little to no rain.. Yesterday I went to Wallyworld, I had to get a few things.. Bought myself a little round table for my, 'Medieval Room' just trying to figure out now what all too put on it, I bought a plate from Amazon and utensils and a chalice and while I was in Wallyworld I got a piece of fabric that would make a good placemat, I just need another piece or two to kinda fill up the table..

Blog post: Feb. 12

Well, it started out this morning with a lite lite rain, then later on in the afternoon it stopped, then it started up again but a rain/snow mix and that lasted about an hr. producing maybe a quarter inch.. I think it got up to about 35-ish.. Really didn't have any reason to go out today so I didn't, just stayed in and watched videos on Youtube/Facebook, etc. Then before I knew it, it was 6:00 and I had to find something for supper!.. Sunny skies are predicted for tomorrow or atleast partly sunny skies, which is good because I have an eye appointment..

32 This morning with sunny skies and lite lite breeze.. Had to walk down to the store  and get a few things, so as I left and was walkin up the road alittle ways and I just decided to stop at the local dumpster and see if there was anything worth taking.. (the guy who works out of the local store that just makes shelves, any and all kinds, said I could use his dumpster) So I'm looking in the dumpster, there's alot of shelf wood and boxes, but I never expected a cat to jump out!. I walked up to it, next thing you know I hear, like, mice scurrying in a box and next thing I see was a cat jumping out!. I gotta say it kinda elevated my heart rate alittle!. (there's some nice pieces of wood in there though) Then afterwards I walked down, got what I needed, then walked back!. Came back another way though, stayed out alittle longer, enjoyed the day!.

About 32 upon waking up this morning, and off 'n' on clouds all day, today probably got up to about 45.. Had to walk down and get bread, it's much better than pancakes, although pancakes are good for a hamsamitch/oven roasted turkey maybe a lite coat of mayo. just make sure you thaw those cakes out first!. So I walked down to Casey's to get bread, then on the way back, I stopped in a little antique shop and flea market, got myself a little table, (for my Medieval Room) and stayed there awhile and visited then walked down and stopped in Another antique shop and flea market but didn't buy anything!. Stayed for a bit then walked to the library 'n' got some dvd's........Then home!. Where I seen my table standing in front of my door, it wasn't to heavy but enough to were i'd probably be alittle out of breath after 2  1/2 blocks if I would've carried it, so the lady drove it over and dropped it off (just glad she stopped the car)!.

Went to Wallyworld this morning, (my weekly outing) didn't really have to get much, I did manage to spend money!. There was some snow left from yesterday, we got maybe an 1"-1.5".. I had to walk down the store yesterday and get something, there was light snow blowing in my face, (wind was out of the north, actually more like a light breeze.....kinda liked it) I like walking in snow, if you need a weapon you can bend down and get a handfull of the cold stuff and almost instantly you got a semi-hard rock that's made from really cold iced-up rain water that's alittle hard, but not to hard and if you squeeze really hard with your hand, you can break-it and.... (Well It's a snowball plain 'n' simple....a snowball!!..) I got back from Wallyworld around 3 and I was pretty much to tired to do anything, just put the groceries away and plopped down in the chair!.. It was a nice day here, the high here prolly got to around 40, clear, light breeze..

Blog post: Feb.4

The last few days have been very nice, ever since my last post on Jan.29 it's been gradually warming, yesterday and today were in the 70's with clear to partly cloudy skies but tomorrow they predict rain and the next day they predict snow!. (which I have no problem with) Sunday was the Super Bowl, the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49er's , it was a really close game all 4 quarters, there was a lot of good commercials too, my favorite was the one with Bill Murray!. This is the first city that I know of to shoot fireworks and celebrate after their team won!. So today is the next day (Feb.4) and right now it's about 35 and breezy and overcast, the radar shows stuff moving, but nothing right close by.. (it's 1 now so I would look for it around supper time maybe 5:30-6) Two days ago was, 'Groundhog Day' it appears there will be an early Spring..  Punxsutawney Phil, did not see it's shadow, (I know some of you would appreciate that) but here, I've been seeing, 'Robins' which are also a sign of 'Spring' ever since 'Thanksgiving' and as my Bro. would say, "Spring is 6 weeks away"!
Okayyy so, I just went out to check the mail, (no mail) and it was lightly drizzling out.....SO, I think I have to find a new 'radar'!.
