Good morning everyone Emergency rations with instant coffee and knäckebröd available in the break room. Over here -4 Celsius and still pretty dark. The coffee is dark too. Some poor guys in other parts of the country were apparently stuck in their cars for hours due to local heavy snowfall. It wasn't mentioned if the stuck drivers had emergency rations but those could have come in handy. Happy Saturday and be safe GameBoomers

Good Morning Ana, Copper, Mad, Beasong, connie, soot, hagatha, Draclvr Fogfighter and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew and a latte for Copper are ready and waiting! Hope you all stay safe and warm with all that stormy weather in Canada. We had over 1+ inches of soaking rain yesterday and a few showers are expected this morning. It is in the 30s right now...I'm not use to the cold...we have had such a mild fall this year...no frost on the ground yet and I have not seen my breath yet when out walking...thats how warm its been! Hope you all have a warm and safe weekend! Gerry

Greetings one and all, I hope you stay safe! We have storm Bert chucking down large quantities of rain and blowing quite a gale in some places, so flooding an fallen trees are disrupting most services, but we are in a relatively sheltered spot and can probably stay put until things improve, hoping not to lose power as a result of any tree damage to lines elsewhere... I know that in other parts of the British Isles people are suffering far more.
Life is what happens while you're making other plans.

Good Saturday morning! I had a message from a former member here, Rosaboobie, last night. She lives in northern Scotland and is getting hammered by snow, cold and rain. She sent me a picture of her little Jack Russell terrier who was almost buried in the snow!
Meeting the fam again at an oak fired pizza place this afternoon. Then it will be back to "normal" starting tomorrow! Then it will start all over with Thanksgiving and my two adult grandkids here for a week!
Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.

Good morning everyone,
Last night's storm didn't cause any power outages and it wasn't nearly as bad as expected, at least not here. I wonder if all of the vulnerable trees have already fallen? Anyway. it was a relief.
Have a great we!ekend
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Good to hear about Rosaboobie, Drac. I remember her well. Tell her I said hello. I am still on the "hope I don't lose power" list; the possibility is now Monday/Tuesday with buckets of rain. We had a lot of wind last night and some rain; fortunately we survived the wind. I will be glad when it's Wednesday, whatever the outcome, so that we can start to dry out. Take care, everyone!

Good Morning Lex, connie, soot, Draclvr, hagatha, Fogfighter, Marian, Mad, SpaceQ, and everyone! I've put on an extra pot of Wide Awake Double Dark Brew along with fresh brewed tea with so many visiting the Break Room! So much bad weather all over the world right now! Climate is changing everywhere. I hope everyone stays safe and doesn't lose power. There were some outages here, but I was one of the lucky ones and didn't lose power yesterday. it was very windy and raining yesterday so no walking...hope to walk today if the weather cooperates. Enjoy your day and be safe! Gerry

Good Sunday morning! Nice sunny warmish day here - going to be over 70 degrees F. Then rapidly plummeting to lows in the 20's at night later this week. Definitely cold for Thanksgiving here in the US on Thursday. We'll be doing two as usual this year. Our granddaughter and her husband were able to get leave from the Army for a few days, so we get to see them this year. Then we will do our own quiet Thanksgiving dinner for just the two of us on Saturday. I always look forward to cooking that meal - probably my favorite of the year!
Same here, soot! Running my robot vacuum in the living room to get all the cat and dog hair under the furniture and hand vacuuming the rest. You would think they would quite shedding once it gets cold!

Good Monday morning! Hope your week is off to a good start. Only thing on my agenda is a trip in town to get more expensive meds and cat food! Then off to the grocery store.
I'm going to be glad that we have several days of below freezing temps just to stop the cursed Asian Lady Beetles. I have piles of them everywhere, especially under the windows in this 100+ year old farmhouse. I vacuum them up every day, but they STINK! They aren't as bad this year as some others.
Love those pictures, Lex!

Good morning everyone.
It's a Pilates morning and then I need to do some more work in the garage, maybe put some more boxes down in the crawl space.
Have a great Monday!
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.
