Ugh- Weather

What makes a Texan (yes that’s what we are now) unhappy? Rainy/Cold Days!  What makes a Texan upset?  Several rainy/cold days in a row!  What really ticks off a Texan? Two weeks of rainy, cold days!!

OK, I know there are a lot of people who have it worse. My family finally got power back after 8 days. But they are up north where these rotten things happen. We are in Texas, we’re suppose to have sunny skies, warm temperature's, light breezes. Afternoons spent riding bikes, strolling down our streets to talk with friends, sitting under the awning with a cold beverage. NOT – having sweat shirts a daily dress code,  the fireplace going constantly,  having rain hung by the door. No this is just not right. And let me ask you this, have you ever been basically trapped in 400 sq. ft.. for two solid weeks. Trust me it’s not pleasant.

We did have a nice Christmas Dinner with friends. 004

This is at David and Linda’s home. David promised to send me a picture of all of us but so far I haven’t received it.  hint- hint David

Saturday morning we went out for breakfast at Rene’s again. Seems to have turned into a regular weekly thing.

Today we are going out for a early dinner with 12 others then we’ll be home early before all the idiots get on the road. Our biggest worry on New Years Eve is listening to the guns being shot up in the air. Not a warm fuzzy feeling wondering where they will come down at. This rain might have one good side effect and that’s keeping these people inside.

So that’s about it. I have one more picture to share. This is of Pepper and it pretty much sums up what we all feel about this rain.

Everyone out there have a Happy New Year and please be safe
