I'm not looking forward to today's "snow event". DH and I are betting on which prediction is right. He says the one which calls for 5" and I say 10". Either way the wind is going to make it a mess.

In the Muskegon area we are looking at another 5" today and 3" tomorrow. And wind, and below zero chill. Just blew off another 6 inches of packed stuff. Clean for a minute.

Just to be different I'll add your two predictions and say 15" for ya'll.

Roosters- at a year old they either get hormones and nasty, or not. Every year there is a surplus of free roos, that no one wants to eat because they are too nice. Do yourself a huge favor and wait until you see one advertised on here you like. Less heartache for all involved and you get to be some roos saving grace. I saved my boy from auction, took 4-5 but this one is the one. Likes hugged and follows you for them!

Grrrr.... Think I dropped my debit card somewhere out in the snow in the driveway. Went go get some groceries tonight and went to swipe the card, wasn't in it spot in my wallet. looked high and low in my coat, my car for it, stopped in at the Wendy's where I last used it at their drive thru, and finally back home here to check the pants I was wearing yesterday. Not there. Hopefully, it s just under the snow somewhere. I called to cancel it, and I figure that I'll find in when the snow melts. Be easier to get a new one tomorrow.

that is a pain I would do the same

She doesn't plan to have kids...and were it just normal teen age angst and just us as her only parental influence... I could deal with that.

But her t mother was constantly, undermining everything we tried to do DD... we ended up taking custody because of vari

some times all you can do is your best, when there is an apposing side that only wants to be a wedge.........I have known people in this situation, some times much later in life the kids see what was going on some times they never do.
