Today's News and Weather Report

[la_samtyr]

Well, it turned cold. Meh. Today, I was able to pay some more bills so I am essentially caught up for now. Or at least until after the first of next month.

So, my aunt and uncle are having their auction Saturday. *sigh* I am really pissed for a lot of reasons but mostly because I won't be able to get hardly anything at all. Most of the stuff will go high, plus I'll probably be bidding against family for it anyway, so just... meh. Worst, some of the things I really wanted I know I won't be able to afford. The cousins will start coming in tomorrow (some are probably here tonight though), so I will probably be mostly offline until sometime Sunday.

Oh and did I mention the fast-moving snowstorm that is headed our way? Yeah. Just better and better, always.

Oh! Keep warm, stay safe inside!

All the best for the auction!

Thank you! I am at least staying warm. :)

Heh, thank you. I'm sure that it will be starting soon enough... :/

Yeah - we were hit with the snowstorm yesterday. I couldn't believe how much was coming down so fast! I think it's about 5-6" here in the cities. I shoveled as much as I could yesterday but then it snowed more. There's still most of the driveway to shovel.

Of course the temperature dropped to 0F.

Sorry about the auction & not being able to afford things. I was lucky enough to inherit a couple of antiques from relatives.

Stay warm!

I know, I saw that on tv weather reports. ::offers you hot cocoa, tea or coffee::t

It's not that I don't have things from her, it's just that they never gave *anything* away -- they "didn't want to play favorites." Which would be ok, I can understand that -- except that they *did* give things away through the years -- often I would hear about it after the fact. And now, there are only a few of the family who are going to be able to afford things at all. As for me, I am only hoping to get a few things since I won't get paid until "sometime after the first." Meh. Which means I won't be bidding on hardly anything, because the money I *do* has to cover bills (not luxuries, like these are.)

You already know I'm sick of snow. So I understand it is the last thing you want to hear about. Stay in if you can and curl up to a good movie.

I hope the auction goes alright. Try not to let it get you down. I know easier said than done.

*hugs*

Thanks hon! We both feel the same way about the snow I think. Heh. Just got done watching "Fellowship" on cable, too. :)

*hugs back*
