A cold morning and computer problem!

It was 25 degrees at my house this morning. I had to scrape ice off the windshield before I took Brittney to school. That does not happen very often. The sun is shinning and should warm up to 60 today and back to the 70s this weekend. I am trying this post from my tablet,the computer crashed. I still cannot comment on most blogs but I am reading those that I can and keeping up with you all. I hope to have the computers issues fixed soon.

Valentine weekend and my comments!

A very nice weekend! Friday night we went out to eat at a new restaurant in town. Their "Sweetheart" special was ribeye steak and choice of seafood with salad,baked potato and pie. Saturday was Grandmother-Granddaughter Day. Brittney and I went shopping,out to brunch and yogurt mountain! Sunday was lunch with oldest daughter,son-in-law and the 2 youngest grandsons then visiting some old cemeteries as we research ancestors. We topped the weekend off by going to Steak"n"Shake on the way home! I am having some computer problems,I can read the post but I am unable to comment on some of them 2 of them are Jack 69 and Diane at lavender dreams so please know that I am reading your post and hope to be able to comment soon!

What do you think ?

Oh my, yesterday was a terrible day for me. I went 8 hours without cable,internet or telephone. My husband had the car, my neighbors were all at work. I did not know what to do with myself. I could not watch my favorite t.v. show, check facebook, blog, play games on my tablet or talk on the telephone. I then realized something is very wrong with this. I had no idea that I was so dependent on these things. What did people do 100 years ago? Is life better now with these things,I am not really sure. I am considering taking a break from it all and see what happens.

2 Snow Days ! !

We had 2 snow days but we only had sleet in our neighborhood. Some of the neighborhood children had never seen snow and thought it was snowing,they were so excited and even made "snowmen" out of the sleet. I was sick with a stomach virus but managed to wrap a blanket around me and watch them from the porch. School is back in today and the ice and sleet has melted and we are supposed to be back in the 70's tomorrow. Our winter storm was exciting and short. I know that a lot of those in the North are having a hard time and my prayers go out to them. I am very thankful that we do not have it as bad.

We are having a " Snow Day" tomorrow in Florida

We may not get much snow but sleet and ice are in our forecast. Our schools are closed and emergency workers are called in. We are not accustomed to weather like this! This is a rare winter storm!

Snowing in Florida ?

Just heard from a friend that it is snowing in Pensacola, about 200 hundred miles from here. Our weather man says we have a chance to get some here next week. The neighborhood children are excited as well as some adults. I do remember it snowing in 1957. I was 4 years old, My Daddy and I made a snowman! The next time I remember was 1977 when my oldest daughter was a year old,I bundled her up and took her out to play in it. The next time was in 1990. We were in Dothan Alabama shopping about 100 miles from us. We heard on the radio that it was snowing at our house,so we hurried home,by the time we got home it had stopped but our lawn and porch were covered in a white blanket of snow,it was beautiful! It does not happen very often so I am hopeing that we do get some!

The Christmas decorations are down and I am ready for the New Year! I took things slowly putting things away,as I dd putting them up this year and it did make it all more enjoyable! We have had very cold weather for us in North Florida, as has everyone. We did not get any snow but we did have lots of icicles thanks to my hubby,the grandchildren,grandma and neighbors sure enjoyed it.The local newspaper even came out and photographed it!
