I was really hopeful for getting out of town this weekend 😞

Three day weekend, but it’s just not going to happen. Monday looks increasingly like snow, and Saturday will be bitterly cold. I mean I can work with the cold, but I think with highs in the single digits on Saturday, especially up north, it ain’t going to happen. I had a vision, but the weather seems to have taken it off the table. Winter just is tough for plans out of town. But I can stay home or go out to Five Rivers, and that won’t cost much money. I was so hoping for hot tenting, having a big ol’ fire, maybe shooting some guns, later on drinking some beer, burning up some of that scrap paper that is filling up the waste basket at home.

At least not so cold today, I was able to turn down the heat. 🌡 But I am going to have to watch out for ice on the sidewalks with the warmer weather. The predicted sun is nice, but I almost feel like the meteorologists are too optimistic. I’m thinking more clouds will dominate. But only 26 degrees tonight, which is nice for a change, gives the heat a break. Almost 40 come Thursday, which will help with the ice. ❄️ Almost the ice can be worse then the snow, I don’t want to slip and fall again.
