Not even close. We lost ALL of it in the last big warm-up. Haven't got but 6 or 8 inches since, an' I ain't plowed it much either because we keep gettin' it. Maybe tomorrow I'll go out an' clean it all up.

Oh c'mon. They didn't HAVE snowplows back then, they were still rollin' it with horses!

Well they won't give me a real office, so...

Got the brakes all done in the International today. Jus' waitin' for the paint to dry on the rims now. No rush, I ain't takin' it out in the slippery stuff anyhow. It's the first vehicle I've ever owned that ain't got 4WD, so it stays in the barn when it's nasty, an' yes, it IS nice! I like bein' able to do that!

Hat, you get your errands done? Or are ya still tryin' to figger out how to start the truck with the other hand?

The evenin' coffee is served.

Night Shift checking in........alls quiet about the post......it has to be quiet....its all frozen...

Claude, the only wood I got out of the ice storms was green willow, and from what I am hearing, it wont burn well even after it cures.. how is it for carving on? I got a bunch if you want it...actually we dont use the stove on teh coldest nights, 'cause The BOSS wants to let her dogs inside on the porch where teh stove is, and if i use it, it gets too hot out there for them..

Suppossed to warm up this weekend!!!! yea!!!!! into the 50's!!!yea!!!!!then a major snow-storm and record cold next week.....booooooo

Well, coffee is on, donuts are corralled for teh night and I brought in a couple rolls of plain ol' Charmin for the less adventurous types....
Y'all sleep tight, see ya in the morning!

Cold morning, but its slowly getting better, 20* better than yesterday actually!
Took tonight off, got to take the BOSS to dinner and dancing and then we are driving out to Salina for a Foundation Quarter Horse Registry meeting tomorrow... gonna see about hosting a show this June here in the local area...right now the closest one is a two hour drive away.

Well, I ought to go do somethign constructive... maybe run soem paper clipes though the shredder or something....

See yall later!

Bbbbad mental picture there Claude. Good morning to those who are up, those who will be later and those that are frozen in place and have no choice as to whether they are up or down.Hey Claude, you've got to start getting new donuts, the rats ate the centers out of the dumpster variety again.
