I "cheat" and give the birds plenty of extra feed ahead of the crappy weather so all I have to worry about is thawed water, which means half the amount of time involved. Our first winter out here taught me well!
So far, this winter, weather-wise, has felt like we're back in Middle TN again. It's been a nice break!
Had a nice V-Day dinner with doc! We had sauteed shrimp, steamed asparagus and saffron rice...all fixed by me!
He was glad to be home after his night away, for safety-sake. The heater didn't work very well there so he went to bed way early. Work will reimburse him and he said he'll find a bit nicer place if/when he does it again.
Even managed to finally get 2 of the 3 phone calls taken care of, before it got to dark.
Good day here,all in all and will call it a day here shortly. I'm watching an auction for the first 6 Foxfire books and it ends in the morning. Hope I get it but if not I'll just put in my Christmas request early and we'll get the whole set from Lehmans eventually.
Got 3 phone calls yesterday and didn't get back to anyone since the weather was crappy, we don't get cell phone signals in the camper. Just spent almost an hour and a half trying to get back to everyone and no such luck. Supposed to rain and possibly storm tomorrow so I'm sure they'll call back then! 
Any snow that is gone by the next day is a pretty good one. 
This is what I get for telling doc that I plan on cutting back spending money so we can start putting some back towards building materials for the cabin. 
I may just be good and set a few bucks back each week towards getting the complete set from Lehmans. Decisions, decisions...
