It was 0400 when I woke up. It was 0500 when I posted. You're in a different time zone furball, as well as a different universe.

Mornin' all!

Up early here too. Been awake and out of bed since before 0400. Couldn't sleep.... Just did a few of the quiet chores around the house while everyone else slept.....

Another week of cold weather. Depending on whose weather station you look at its anywhere from -30* to -40* this morning. It's been over a week now since it was warmer than about -25*.


Keep the coffee hot!

Told y'all. Ding Dong!

Got sad news at church today, out Pastor is getting a promotion so that means he has to leave us. He's only been here about 3.5 years, only the second one we're ever had. As sad as I am for us I'm just as glad for him. He'll be a DS over 130 churches now. The last 2 DS's had to leave prematurely because of "personal issues". That district is getting a great guy and a better leader.
Sorry to hear about losing a Pastor. I seems like that happens and you were use to having them there. I'm sure the one that comes in will be able to bring the right stuff to your place.

It's good you're moving more and more. Take it easy to get the full affect.

Mad, good to see ya!!

I'm off folks, gotta catch a puddle jumper in the AM, off to lovely San Antonio... COME AND TAKE IT!!!

man I love that story...

Ya'll be good.


Yay! As long as I can find the pan, I'm all set. Have a safe trip to SA. Do you get to stay long to enjoy the city a little bit? Or strictly work, in and out? Either way, grab a good taco.

You're darn right, COME AND TAKE IT.

Growing up I was usually the token Hispanic in the group or one of the few. If we go by how/where I was raised, I should be Czech/German/Pol

Moral of the story is....look out for the woman....cause the guy may beat you up but the woman will kill you



Women fight dirty DH says he scared of me (calls me a "mexican redneck"). Apparently I have the "best" tendencies and attitudes of both worlds Chris Johnson, be afraid, be very afraid (I was born in CC and bounced around Karnes Co, Bee, and Nueces and SA in college).

Yup.

Early morning, can't get back to sleep. Lights are on, so is the brew. Don't be the last in or there will be nothing left for you.
I think it's the girl thing where you have to find THE dress. Takes forever

He DOESN'T like us, but it's never stopped him from coming around. I think he LIKES to dislike us but doesn't like to TELL us he doesn't like us. His dislike for telling us he doesn't like us is only marginalized by his dislike of us in the first place.

Yes! Exactly!

But now we have to ponder the ramifications of someone with needy tendencies to the very people he dislikes so much.

And how does this make you feel?
