Exhausted, but back. Will share news by PM in the next day or two when I'm more rested. The news could have been better & could have been worse. Those of you who are on my FB can see the updates I posted there. It's going to be a long haul ahead of us still. I'm deliberately being vague here because I don't want to to discuss this in detail on a public forum. Suffice it to say that this will not be the last rough patch but hopefully there won't be too many!
The dogs & cats were sure glad to see me! The rabbit is mad at me and went in his corner, ROFL. He's ticked that I've been gone and let me know it. The birds just don't care...so long as they have food!
I barely beat the ice home. It was misting and hovering about freezing for the last couple of hours. I was worried it would get nasty on the roads before I made it in. The snow in the yard has an ice crust on it from the stuff coming down this evening. Thankfully, the road temp was a degree or two warmer so it didn't ice over!
