    Cloudy here today, too. Sun peeked through once but it must have been a mistake because it didn't stay.

    Good Saturday morning all. Currently 0°C and overcast. Off to skating this morning and then maybe a bit of shopping. Then home to clean up the kitchen and dining room ... all this baking and wrapping has left the place in disarray. Have a great day all :)

    Good morning all. I am quickly getting over what I had, since hubby had Flu and Pneumonia he is still dragging and the throat culture results on daughter came in today and she has Strep along with Flu. We are still a plague house.

    Temp is close to 70 right now and I am so very tired of warm, muggy, sunny and dry. Rain prediction for tomorrow is anywhere between nothing and 1" which will bring the total rain on my garden up to between nothing and whatever.

    Good evening! It was cloudy here all day but no rain. It may be sunny here tomorrow and then rain on Monday. Lots of rain during this coming week. I'd like to see more sunshine.

    A good Saturday here--started out very foggy, but cleared up and the temperature got into the high 60's by mid-afternoon.
    We had 1/4" of rain yesterday, so I had to wait until afternoon to thin the turnips and pick lettuce. Otherwise, I would have bogged down in the garden!
    Dooley, I'm with you--more sunshine would be welcome. And Toni, I do hope you get rain--not a torrential downpour, but just a good, soaking, all day rain.

    Good Sunday morning all. Currently 1°C and overcast. The snow is starting to melt and so it is good packing snow and hard to walk through. I'm off in a while to pick up my son from school for the holidays...Yay! I feel like I haven't seen him in a very long time! Have a great day all :)

    No sun yet today. This morning there was misty rain and fog. The temp is to get up to 54 but some sun would be nice as tomorrow there is a 60% chance of rain. I hope wherever you are that the weather is sunny. wannabe

    Good morning all. Overcast and getting warmer here, the forecast rain has gone around my area once again. We did get a light sprinkle just before noon but there are 3 inches of fallen leaves on my garden so you can guess how much of that really benefits of the roots of anything.

    Wannabe, we average 234 days of sunshine a year, please don't wish more on me, I don't think I could stand more. ;)

    Good Monday morning all. Currently 1°C and overcast with fog. Dog was overly excited to see my son on his return yesterday ... she hasn't seen him in over a month! I didn't think she would be that excited ... she's really MY girl but I guess she missed part of her pack. Wrapping to do today and making a list of the final things to buy this week ... only 10 days until Christmas! Have a great day all :)

    Good night, Netty! Where did the year go. I can't believe it is already Christmas time.

    :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: I have bought only one gift this year... I think I am all done, now. I just have to await its arrival in the mailbox or ups truck and that is it. Yipee! maybe I will get inspired to purchase something more, but probably not. Everybody will get $$$cash.

    Cleaning is calling. The vacuum is out and the steps and family room need finished and the bathroom needs a swipe. Have a good day, all.

    Happy Monday morning. Back to work even though this cold isn't completely gone. But at least I'm able to leave the recliner! :D
    Today is gonna be a warm one... temps expect to be in the UPPER 70s!
    Bet that'll really confuse the plants. :eek:

    Good morning all, well that rain event was a 'washout' only got 1/4th of an inch while other places got 1/2+ but I don't think anyone in the area got the downpour some talking heads were predicting. We do have some more seasonal temps coming over this next week so maybe that will help my holiday spirit show it's jolly face.

    Wrapping presents this morning, will be baking cinnamon bread for early Christmas with Randy's family next Sunday later this week.
    All the batteries in our strings of LED lights around the Yule logs have died so I need to replace those, won't burn the real candles until the Sunday night for the Solstice.

    Good morning all! The birds are really flocking around the feeders this mornings. We have Blue Tits, Goldfinches, Bullfinches, House Sparrows, Robins, Wrens and White Wagtails. Love watching them all from the kitchen window :) Promised heavy rain in the afternoon.

    Have a top Tuesday all!

    Good Tuesday morning all. Currently 0°c with thick fog and rain starting. Not a very nice day. Hoping to get some housework done today. Yesterday, I sat down with my morning coffee to try and find out some info for my daughters boyfriends family tree. Next thing I knew it was 4pm! :rolleyes: Cleaning to do today, and some wrapping and then MAYBE I'll allow myself to do some more genealogy. Have a great day all :)
