Today's News and Weather Report

[la_samtyr]

Yesterday, it snowed. And we had freezing drizzle with it. *sigh* Luckily I take the idea of putting in supplies very seriously. SO I was prepared for it to be worse -- which may or may not happen as winter is far from over. But at least I have plenty of food for the furkids, and a nice stock of bottled water.

So today, I looked out at the snow, saw how cold it was and decided to wait until later (aka noon-ish) before I tried to do any shoveling. I wasn't looking forward to trying to push my gate open either since it only swings out (the grade is just a hair wrong for it to swing in) and I do not need to be wrecking my back or other sensitive parts of my anatomy (in other words, everything lol) by doing something stupid.

Luckily, one of the local farmers swung by with his tractor to take care of the driveway and also my gate/sidewalk. :) He refused my offer to pay, so I will be donating that money to his church and/or the youth group he works with.

Which, in a roundabout way, brings us to the question: Just how Mayberry-ish is my town? The answer is simple: Very. (I will save further explanations for another post. ;)

Ok, time for me to return to hibernation mode! Ttyl!
