Frosty Friday Cafe, 08 Feb 13

Hi MC – stay safe. You can take the wormhole here – no money needed to hang out and play board games! No big plans for the weekend here, except for shoveling out when the storm is over. This better not be another Sandy.

Good morning!! It’s about 25 degrees here right now. I just took the garbage up and fed the birdies. 🙂

I had two cats in my yard. The next door neighbor’s cute little female, Mia was chasing another dk. grey fluffy cat around everywhere! When I drove up the hill with the bags, I interrupted the chase and he got away. LOL Also, saw Mr. handsome Pileated way up high chopping holes in a tree.:)

The dnow is coming down just a little right now.

Glad Tommy has you Joan. A full tummy thru the storm will help a lot.

Commune, I fell asleep once during a lecture in class…only problem was, I was doing the lecturing.

Best wishes for all those hunkering down with this storm. I wouldn’t want to be in Boston right now. Always thought that would be a big city I could exist in.

Paw up waves from pretty newly snow clad Brewtown. Yay, it has stopped & now a pt sunny AM but only +24. Shoveled for kits/birds, mailman this AM. Little Otto showed up this AM for his noms, yay! Put alot out yest eve & saw black cat as I was shoveling. Hoping Gabby got some noms too. Bird feeders are presently filled too. The side streets are still 1/2 plowed in my ‘hood. Walk to work/back today w/more snow kp when I get home from nite’s fall. Sipping Tiramisu, yum grabbing a choco chip bagel & back I go! Waves with wishes for all to stay safe & warm indoors on Northern side & keep cool on Souther side!

Haha funny comment on glasses Joan…Agree, Commune…have some fun in next meeting!

Liam – always liked that name for a cat…

Hi Kilroy and JK!

Hope everyone in the areas with ice and and nor’easter snows stay safe, keep your power, and that all stays well for you.

We lived near the North Shore area of New Jersey during the blizzrd of 1978. That one was actually a series of heavy snow storms over two weeks, culminating in the final HUGE storm. I shoveled more snow in 10 days than I have the entire rest of my life, including the record blizzard of 1982 here in St. Louis. To hear the weather forecasts that the Northeast is going to be hammered as badly or worse than in 1978 is chilling (no pun intended), especially given how many people still don’t have secure homes after hurricane Sandy.

Yesterday was non-stop light rain, often not much more than drizzle, here. When I was in the store late afternoon, some woman ahead of me in the checkout line, a total stranger, was carping about the rain. She turned and insisted on knowing how awful I thought it was. Sorry, but we are still in a drought deficit here with water wells gone dry that supply water to some towns and the rivers at record low levels. If we don’t get rain LOTS of rain in the next few months we will be critically short of drinking water this summer. I managed to keep it polite but when she pushed for an answer I told her just that. Here we are dangerously short of water, other areas are about to be plastered with a blizzard, and she is complaining about some drizzle that didn’t even need an umbrella. *rolls eyes*

Aw, that’s nice to have furry fun at the office on a Friday.

Yikes, Gini! Stay inside and snuggle with the cats (and Mike) 🙂 They’re talking about 2 feet here, which is bad enough. I don’t really remember the ’78 storm, although I assume we got a snow day(s).

Marnet, I’ll bet you were more polite than I would have been, sheesh. Some people can’t see past their own noses.

Enjoy your goggie fun today, JK!

Those in the path of the storm – stay safe ! Sending positve energies wrapped in warmth to all.

No big plans this weekend MC… other than continuing to chip away at the thinset/mortar left behind when I removed tiles. Getting ready for new tile. Oh, and seeing a new hairdressor to have some fun covering the ‘platinum’ hairs. 😉

Zounds, Kilroy, that’s some big time cuteness. Thank you for the link as well as the COA warning!

Hi 2P!
