Something About Nothing ... #12

[macraven]

Went out to order an oak cart for the kitchen

Temp at 56 but the high today this afternoon will be 61

Dressed as it was winter

lol


Never in my life would have thought to spend my last years in Georgia
But better here than living in the north as weather there was not my favorite

 

[tink1957]

Hey mac...it was 30 here this morning

Hope everyone had a great day

Knock knock Halloween is tomorrow.





House keeping and laundry done today. Have the candy bars ready for the Trick or Treaters.

Have my Halloween dessert table ready for party tomorrow. Will have to take another pick when the treats are on it tomorrow.

Good evening everyone. I think I am ready for Halloween. I have no idea how many kids we will get. I have to admit, it’s not my favorite holiday. I don’t like all of the gory, creepy, scary stuff. However, I love seeing the little kids dressed up in their costumes.

Squirlz - I love your garage. I would like to have screens for mine. Maybe someday.

Wagman - Congrats on the region championship.

Keisha - A snowflake? Too soon!

Lynne - Black Friday? Nooo! Six years of working retail have made me extremely allergic to that day. Three years ago I started planning a anti-black Friday day. I try to find different activities that will keep us away from the mall and other stores. I need to start thinking about want to do this year.

Chuckers - I’ve decided to ignore the engine light and hope for the best. On Friday I’m taking the car in for an oil change and state inspection. Love the Biblical countdown.


Living in the Atlanta area was always fun in the winter. I remember when I was a kid we would all go crazy att he sight of snow. Not so fun as an adult. I can remember leaving work on day just as snow started falling. It was coming down in pretty, large flakes. Well, it seems pretty until my normally 20 minute commute turned into an hour and a half. Now I just stay home when it snows.

If a decent chance of snow could happen, I see the reports on the local tv channels that schools are closed the next day

99% of the time, no snow

Not having snow/salting equipment here like they have in the north is my guess of the advanced school closing

No way I go out as my area has ridges and mountains
Since the roads aren't salted, I stay home

I drove in snow and ice up north but salting the roads begins before the snow falls and streets are plowed continuously
Never worried about driving up north unless it was a sleet/ice storm

... Hello homies.

anyone here?

Yes, it's Tuesday, the last day of October, and Halloween. That deserves a wahoo and a taco.

It's clear and cold. Just right for trick or treating. Golden sunrise to start this day where I can almost see my breath. Yep, sweater weather.

Have a bootiful day homies!

 

[Chuckers]

Happy Tuesday and Happy Halloween All!

Because of the freak storm we had here Sunday night, half of my town is without electricity... Halloween had been postponed to Friday! Which is good for me, because I work on Friday and I didn't have candy anyway
So, tonight I can play Super Mario Odyssey in peace!

Can't argue with conventional wisdom that those reared in the south don't know how to drive in the snow. One of those things you learn via hands' on exposure.

Nobody is good when there's ice on the road (it's almost always the over-confident peeps with a big-SUV or pickup truck who think they have super powers).

Yesterday had to stop for a flock of turkeys crossing the road in front of me, short distance later a big deer got creamed by car in front of me. Change in weather has them in an uproar, well that & the hunters.

Will warm up to the low 40's today here, need to dig for my work boots for yard. It's a marsh from all the rain, better than snow!

Good day all

Keisha...so, glad you added the second part...I get so tired of northerners that live around here spouting off about "you people, around here, don't know how to drive in the snow" in such a condescending manner. I feel 'obligating' to let them know that I drive just fine in the snow...but, we hardly get snow around here...we get plenty of ice, and nobody drives good on that stuff. Some want to argue the point, but most agree and move on.

Happy Howl'o'ween!!! to all and to all a creep filled night!!!

 

[Chuckers]

It's not that southerner's don't know how to drive in the snow, it's more that the cities don't know what to DO with the snow on the roads. That's why Atlanta got SO bad a few years ago. I don't really blame the city because stocking up for a northern snowstorm just doesn't make sense. It's expensive and its money just sitting around waiting for that one storm every 5 years to happen.

 

[PoohIsHome]

It was Thursday, someone flung a merry go round, I fell off and now it's Tuesday.

Happy Halloween, homies!!

17 days until we escape the madness!!

Happy Halloween all took out the good decorations this am. Will brace winds later to set up strobes & put up caution tape.

Dh working tonight Bribed #2 DS with a steak to come & keep me safe from the ghouls Not to mention hauling back in the fancy stuff.

We get van loads from a small city about 5 miles away where they don't have Halloween due to ahem crime issues. Don't mind handing out goodies to all kids. It's the adults sans costume thrusting a pillow case at me who give me pause

Still have remnants of the weekends turkeys, made my yearly meatloaf lol, a cake & banana bread always get that urge when it gets cold.

Oh my goodness! That has been my diet today.......lol.......I packaged up a load of stuff to take to the church hall earlier and still had loads left.......I’ve been eating things I wouldn’t normally eat.......and rediscovered how much I like Mars bars....... Kyle and Tom are enjoying it too though........

I’m sure the kids you get will love your candy and your decorations too.......hope the wind doesn’t cause any damage........

You had me with your lovely food description till you mentioned banana bread I file that alongside carrot cake and trifle as desserts of the devil........ I’m sure yours is lovely though



First glass of wine has been enjoyed..........all blinds closed and even the fancy drapes have been pulled tonight........I refuse to look outside in case someone thinks it funny to wear a white mask and stand outside.........I know you can’t get around our property without the gate being open........ but, hey......gates don’t stop the boogeyman......

Have a great Halloween...........

Yay, a kindred spirit. I don’t really know what trifle is though.
