Hello everyone,

New week new thread & I thought I’d take us back to January for a few weeks LOL
We are in the middle of some crazy big snowstorm, started around 11 am & it’s still going on at 6 pm. It changed over to an icy rain for a while this afternoon then back to snow. Getting around tomorrow should be nearly impossible.

I hope everyone is safe & warm & doing OK.
Have a great night!

Good morning everyone and how are we doing today then? Hope all is well. I see it is the big inauguration day over there wish you all the very best I hope you get a better deal than we got. It's interesting to see the names that will be on the podium with him there is certainly a lot of money behind that from what I was reading as well he has over 200 executive orders to sign up today as well. It's interesting that he is talking about deportation for criminal elements who are in the country illegally and he has got a massive acceptance vote for that irrespected or Creed colour or race the trouble is you don't know what to believe in the media. Julie's Dad he's in the chapel of rest at the moment so we're going to see him tonight full stop went down to the house this morning and got rid of lots and lots of cardboard old boxes and everything that we're in the loft don't ask why but they kept the boxes too we'll start hope everywhere is doing well

hey all,
yep, got my black arm band for today's event on Martin Luther King day. What a conflict of ideas. Mick, you're right, lots of money behind the new old guy. How to buy a presidency 101.

Otherwise... a crisp morning here, not much snow yesterday here but it looks like the northern neighbors got a little snow. Fun to watch football in the snow, from my nice warm living room!

Good evening friends,

Woke up to a brisk 10 degrees this morning, wow! They’re calling for 6 degrees tomorrow, Lol
Our neighbor plowed the driveway for us, grateful even though we didn’t have to go anywhere. Wr didn’t get as much as predicted, 3 or 4” or so but it’s pretty frozen now.

Mick, you & Julie have gotten a lot done with Dad’s house already. I remember his grandparents house being filled with empty boxes too, funny.
Now that we know hell has truly frozen over & have Trump back in the WH I guess we just wait & see what he blows up first. This whole thing is a true embarrassment for those of us with a lick of sense.

Sam, I can just imagine MLK wondering what is wrong with people these days. If Trump truly wants to deport people he should start with Musk who indeed bought the election. I hate his smug little face. Glad you didn’t get clobbered with snow. Stay inside & watch football haha!!

Hello to everyone else & wishing a safe & warm night for all!

MAE ALL...I did have to go out over the weekend a couple of times, man it was cold out there. Our warmer weather is arriving today but I heard that it won't actually appear until after sunset. What's with that! At least I won't wake up to a frozen car.

Lav...thanks for kicking off the thread this week. Sorry to hear about the snow and then turning into icy rain is the worst. Sounds like our arctic deepfreeze has caught up to you. Glad you didn't have to go anywhere today. Not much you can do about Trump, hopefully he won't get too crazy.

Mick...I think that's funny Lav talking about Julie's Dad's grandparents and their empty boxes in the attic. It does sound like you've made a good start at clearing out the house. I also heard people voted for Trump on his promise to get rid of illegal immigrants. All I think is be careful what you wish for.

Sam...we haven't had that much snow here this winter, some are worried about the lack of ground moisture and the upcoming fire season. If we're not freezing we're on fire. It is fun to watch them play football in the snow. Haha

Things are back to normal at work with facility renters figuring all the rules apply to everyone else but them. Registration for kindergarteners opened at the schools last week so the crunch is on for people looking for childcare at the centre. They also figure the rules don't apply to them. At least the day went by fast.

Have a good night all...PPQP
