Gross!
I have been chainsawing, cutting rootballs off of blown down trees so they don't soak up sap. We will deal with them later on in the year.

Good Morning,
It is 10:50am Friday morning and I am done with coffee. It is sun rain over here, humid and so uncomfortable. I trimmed my orange tree & Guava tree to their bare bones.....oh I am not love this weather at all....

Dreary here, but above freezing. We'll get a couple nice spring days next week, and then reality comes back. Reality will be: too cold and wet to want to work outside, but not cold enough to snow and therefore no skiing for hubby.

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.

I ended up staying home yesterday. The right side of my throat had started hurting about 2 days after I got back. It was pretty sore by Tuesday but I otherwise didn't feel too bad, still just a little tired but I chalked that off to residual jet lag. By Wednesday the soreness had migrated towards the center of my throat and the headache started at work. By yesterday morning, my whole throat was swollen and sore and I was exhausted. I napped most of the day and kept gargling with warm salt water and sipping hot homemade ginger tea and drinking ice cold ginger water. I feel much better this morning so I'm going to work today to make up for missing yesterday.
Luckily, my office is an old storage closet under the stairs so I can isolate from others pretty well. All will get fair warning to stay outside my office when they come for help.

@DobieLover, I'm sorry you're not well. I wish you could stay home, rest, pet your lovely dogs, and recuperate.


Lots of illness (mild and serious) going around. Hubby and I are well, but so many people we know are not.

Thanks for the hot coffee!
We have about 5 inches of snow already and coming down hard.
We really need the moisture!

That is how my DH's crud started... 3 days of sore throat and then it went into a respiratory illness. He still has it.
I hope you kick it soon!
Enjoy the day, Cafe!
I am going to go play in the snow.

I did that all day yesterday! I feel MUCH better now. I'm definitely over the hump.

Good Morning,

Glad to hear you are feeling better @DobieLover . Going from hot weather back to cold weather might be the caused of it.

Coffee is ready, and....yes...you guess it, that is if you did guess it... it rains, soaking wet ground and I was soaking wet in the rain letting my feather kids out. It the rain is heavy, the air would be cool, but it is light rain so it is humid and the consistent persistent rain is nasty. The north of my state is flooding,...I think of the insurance.. how it will work, we have so much flooding since last year that the insurance is so high, some did not get insurance for their houses.

Awhile back there was this business selling farm equipment in the outback town, it was raining so bad for days so he moved those trailer.etc.. to another place on higher ground thinking it will be saved from flooding. It was heavy rain for days and those he moved to the higher ground were flooded at well, his business facility was flooded. The insurance refused to cover those that moved to higher ground because they were not at his business place where they were insured equipment. So very sad.

I am going to a fancy animal store, they claim to have fancy chicken feed that chicken deserved. I asked them is the protein plant or meat? they told me plant..I don't know much about chicken feed, but what I encountered so far any plant base protein is soya bean by products, not so fancy after all. But I still want to go to see what else they have there...I love going to store for chickens, i care not about clothes/shoes whatever, but chickens..oh yes, my dearest chickens
