Good snowy morning, actually goes from snow, to sleet, to a mix. They say it should stop in about an hour and the temps go up to 37. it's just below freezing right now. The sanding trucks just rolled through, and they just announced a little while ago that schools are now closed. They could have gone with a 2 hour delay. Ridiculous.

I fed the cats, 1 was on the back deck, 2 were on the front porch, and Tiger was in the window well of the cellar on the side of the house. I guess she slept there all night. She wouldn't move so I brought her food dish to her. Talk about spoiled, lol

I didn't hear any cats fighting overnight, and no meowing so Goosie is settling in nicely. She found the litter box on her own yesterday, which was the only thing I was worried about. Her mama was on the front porch last night all by herself, so I brought her in just to see that her baby was safe and okay in here. I don't think she cared, she wanted right back out.
The little one is quick. I opened the front door to feed the ones on the porch (the inside ones were in the kitchen eating), and before I knew it, she snuck right by me and went on the porch. She tried to eat out of mama's dish so I was able to grab her and bring her back in, but I got a good scratch on my hand trying to do it. I have to remember to be very careful with the doors until she's more used to being in.

Summer has to drive her husband back to Cincinnati today, where he will most likely be for the next 3 weeks. I don't know how she can stand to keep making that long drive. Every time she does, she ends up with a flare up when she gets back and spends 2 days in bed.

I need to take the trash down but I'm waiting for it to warm up a little bit. Right now it's big fat snowflakes, and the radio said 1-2", but unless we're going to get 2 inches in the next hour or so, that's not going to happen, which is fine by me.

Have a good day

Dear Snowysmom please do take time for yourself and you do likewise, dear Lynn.

Floor update God-willing to come later.

Lynn Thank you for taking such good care of the kitties. The little kitty seems right at home in house.

Good morning. It is 30 here now with temps going to the mid 30s. We only got 2 inches of snow but then it turned to rain and freezing rain. I would rather have the snow. Jeff's area near Boston only got rain. It is icy and a little bit of a coating out in my driveway and walkway. I will have to put down some ice melt so I can take out the trash. I organized the stocking stuffers yesterday and wrapped a few gifts. I probably have too much candy as usual but I do have 8 stockings to fill.

Have a good day.

We only got rain down my way as well, @Snowysmom - which I do appreciate, since I have somewhere to be later this morning.

I've been doing the indoor Christmas decorating in pieces, and I'm almost done (except for the tree, of course, which will be a family thing.)

Today I'm helping out a friend with a kids' storytime and then later decorating a different tree for a charity event with some other ladies from the lodge. - We do it every year and then go out to dinner after, so I'm looking forward to it.

Good morning, 31 now going to 37. We got light snow early yesterday morning, which turned to freezing rain, which turned back to snow and amounted to about 1/2". It was all melted by 1 pm, which is fine by me. I took the trash down to the street after it ended.

The kitten is so funny. She's following the youngest of my 4 around like a puppy. Whatever he does, she does. She finally let me pick her up and hold her last night. Snuggled down and started purring. I woke up this morning to find all of the toys from the little plastic bin scattered all over the kitchen floor, so they obviously had a good time overnight. She's got the tiniest little squeaky meow.

I just got out my little Hydrosteam carpet cleaner and did a few spots. One of them ate something that didn't agree with them and of course they vomited it out on the living room carpet. All cleaned up now, along with a couple of other little spots I found.

When Don was in the hospital the last time, I started a small cross stitch sampler for my friend in CO. My eyes aren't what they used to be, and I couldn't concentrate enough while sitting in his room. I got it out the other day and started working on it. If it's not finished by the time I mail her Christmas gifts, it will be for her birthday in February..

I still haven't heard from Dave which is unusual. He doesn't know I took the framing off the steps, so I would think he would call and say he would come and get them off.

Laundry is in the washer. Going to do a quick clean of the bathrooms and call it done for chores. I have programs I want to watch ---if anyone wants a good Netflix one, All Her Fault was one of those that keep you guessing who dunnit right until the end.

Have a good day

Please stat warm and safe all of you especially in snowy areas.

Dear Snowysmom, you fill all stocking with faith and love. The surprises sound fun to add.

Dear PollyannaMom, thank you for helping to decorate the tree for charity. I would enjoy being part of that.

Dear Lynn, thank you indeed for your kitty care. I hope Dave is okay. Doesn't sound like him from the person you have shared with us for so long. I certainly hope all your home tasks get done.

Happy Wednesday everyone. I will check back later.
