December Thaw?!? Huh???

Should that read, "January Thaw". That's when we usually get a thaw, but not in this case.

I woke up this morning (early by our standards: 8:00a.m.) to find fog, VERY warm (48°) and wet conditions outside. I felt like I should go out and sunbathe or something, it was so warm....but, that wasn't gonna happen!!!


Rizzo took off and was not seen for a few minutes, but I knew he wasn't too far. I think he felt the need to get out and pee on EVERY tree in the neighborhood while he had the chance. The only problem with warm weather in the winter(especially with lots of snow like we have) is fog, lots of mud, and flooding. We could get 1-2" of rain today. The snow pack will be completely gone in a few hours, I'm sure.

The melted snow will have nowhere to go because the ground is frozen. We are under a Flood Watch. It's raining and thundering. We just lost power for a minute. You would think since I have a husband that works for the power company that we would have power 24-7. YEAH RIGHT!!!! I don't think so. We are always losing power. That's another story, though. It's not his fault, he's only a mechanic, not the guy that actually keeps the power on!!!

Going shopping today. We have to get supplies for the kitchen project. Cabinets will here on Dec. 30th. Yikes..I guess we better get busy!

Starting last night, the temps were up to 60°. They are still that high, but now we are supposed to be getting the bad thunderstorms and tons of rain. They are also calling for it to be very windy with some big wind gusts. And until 7pm tonight, we are under a tornado warning. YIKES!!! This is not winter weather...we are suddenly in March and April.
