Good morning Debby! What are you up to today?

Hey there DMC, sorry to almost overlook your greeting...I wasn't quite awake the last time I was on here.

I'll be headed off to the pro shop in a bit. It's been pretty slow lately so if that holds true today, we're going to close early and drive to my cousin's in Laramie (about an hour away). She has some "stuff" she wants to get rid of and DH is hoping for some tools.

What's up with you today?
 
As little as possible, Debby! Seems like it takes all weekend to recover from the early morning schedule during the week.

You got any big plans?

Trying to be quiet - everyone else is still asleep, or at least not stirring yet. I'm hearing generators firing up in the neighborhood. We lost power yesterday evening, no idea when it'll come back on. "Generator etiquette" dictates that you shut them down at night so everyone can sleep, and don't fire them up until at least 7 in the morning. Did a quick walk around assessment; no real damage, just a lot of mess on our place.

A real pain, BL, but being safe and sound is all that counts
 
Safe we are, and sound of body (if not exactly of mind!) And very, very grateful that it is no worse than it is. The power has come back on, and the water in the horse paddocks is beginning to recede. It's gonna be a while, though a sunny, breezy day like this will definitely help. They are saying that this is hurricane Floyd all over again, plus a little. After Floyd, Wilmington was functionally an island - all of the roads out of here were flooded and impassable. My mother lives near Goldsboro (roughly an hour inland), I talked with her this morning. They have power, but have been urged not to try to go anywhere for at least the next two or three days, as the rivers are rising and a lot of roads are not safe. My folks are on relatively high ground, so as long as they stay home, they probably will be fine. Mom said they measured about 8" (20 cm) of rain in their back yard, but they live in one of those odd spots that seem to be dry when everyone else is soaked. The official measurement near Goldsboro is almost double that, and all that water has to go somewhere.

Just 24 (full capacity) :hide  - i set them a few days ago. Most should be sex linked, which will facilitate the dispatching of the little fellas
