Come see me in 20 years and we'll talk. (You'll be a shoo-in!) Keep up the innocent appearances and try to make everyone think you're sweet (you're doing great so far!). If you can cultivate a slightly dotty aura, even better. Don't rush it, though. Let it build over time. It's part of the 'never suspected' thing.
'dotty' is essential. the 'dotty' act, when executed properly, will ensure that whoever irritates you will never see the spork coming before it lands in their throat.
which the jerk at the service department found out yesterday.....
and it was a beautiful thing.

DH is FINALLY working on the snow blower. I got the parts he wanted on Tuesday. After he waited three weeks. Granted it was only three days since the neighbor told us where to get the parts, but still. Snow blower has not worked at all this season. We are supposed to get 6-10 tonight into tomorrow.

I saw the weather this morning, Richard...thought it was heading your way.
Today is cold, but no more snow.

The "nasty crap" (snow) is supposed to get here "around noon-ish". They went ahead and closed the schools... "just in case". I do like that about our county's school board. They'd rather close and it be a false alarm than NOT close and risk what happened to Atlanta earlier this year.

not sure what our final total was...on the deck it's about 10 inches deep, but that is due to drifting, since the winds were from the North, and the deck is on the north side of the house. it was swirling like crazy out there today on the deck!
the hubs says that he thinks we got about 5 inches. at least we didn't get the inch or so of ice and sleet last night!
They're calling for 3 - 6 inches south of us. I hope it stays south and doesn't come north! We were supposed to get 3 inches last week that turned out to only be a dusting, so I'm praying we're lucky again!

the hubs guestimates that we got about 5 inches. he's been outside with the snow thrower; i have kept my happy butt in the house, working on St. Patrick's day dinner.
Yay! Are we already on to complaining about summer weather? I'm in!
I hide away as much as I can to get through summer. I thank and bless my husband during the worst of the heat for insisting we install central air some 25 years ago! Reminds me I need to be on the lookout for a new-to-us dehumidifier at the auction since our old one gave up the ghost last year. The basement NEEDS it.
I was trying to put up my Outdoor easter decorations today. I hang a thousand freaking eggs in the trees in our front yard. But it was sooo cold out there like in the 40s with the wind blowing I was like "Forget this". I am going to have to wait till the sun comes out and it warms up to do that.
We had a total winter wonderland yesterday morning and it was almost 50 degrees yesterday afternoon! I went to visit my grandfather and while we were watching the noon news, the weatherman said the high was supposed to be fifty. My grandfather said, "Fifty?! It's snowing out there you idjit!" It almost made it, though!

I just want to share with you that we are getting up to the 30 degrees Celsius around here, it was hot this weekend. DH just took out the fan from storage.
