It was freakin cold till I got moving. Sides, the dog had to go for a walk, I don't like piles on the carpet.

Odd sight of the day-
The Uptights at the HOA are having the grass on the main road PAINTED FREAKIN GREEN! :shock: WTF?

Plus, its April.

She'll say she hates snow, then she'd be out there making snow angels.

Undisputed fact:
I like to see snowfall. I even like to go outside in it.
But I do in fact hate snow. Because that means it is COLD!
And I don't do snow angels- that means you get cold AND wet.
Same reason I don't deal with snowmen.
I spent spring break last year in the frozen Tundra called the Northeast.
I rolled my big snowball for the base.
Rolled another one.
Second one collapsed the first one
I learned a new four syllable curse word
And vowed to stay FAR away from winter from then on.

So this spring break I am going to Chattanooga!

That means you are paying too much in HOA fees.

Something strange is going on.....

But I am NOT complaining!

I like it WARM! The warmer the better- I wish I lived in the tropics!

PS- I turned down my gas water heat from (No BS here) VERY HOT to comfortable. What do I have the water heater for dummies? Comfortable is aka pee warm.

I turned down the water heater for awhile, but decided that I missed my super hot showers and the dishwasher did'nt seem to do as good of a job....

And this one: Proving people go nuts when the weather gets cold.

It's in Texas! Today is sunny and 70! Took Stang on a 60 mile round trip shopping spree just to drive her. I didn't need a thing!
Gotta luv it... 33 at night and 74 in the day. <_<

I need to do one of those "shopping" trips...at least just take the loop 820 around.

Yard of the Month in January?

I've heard it all.

"My, what beautiful brown, dead grass you have there! The leafless tress are a nice touch, and look how well pruned they are!"

I got no trees yet This is a burn and build development. You get a house and the five bushes the builder plants- its up to you to make it NOT suck.


I mean I planted about 100 bulbs and some baby trees.
And pruned my other shrubs
and moved some stuff to where I wanted it.

Another beautiful day in Bama!


Hows the weather in PA? Brian will be up there all next week- if it snows 3 feet, maybe he will appreciate our lovely southern weather.


You with gas heat- what do you keep your thermostats on?
