Good morning All!
ihope everybody is traveling safely. Last night about 10:00 PM-ish, CHP and CalTrans shut I-5 again due to conditions and poor drivers. Please be prepared to spend the night in a snowed in pass or don’t go. You may not need the supplies to stay over night, but if you do, YOU DO !

We went down to Foster City yesterday afternoon to celebrate a birthday. Kinda spritzing all the way down. Later; after dark the weather actually seemed better on the way home. Almost no rain; although it was wet and windy right at our house.

Hello FTE Friends , Family & Foe, had to get down to the Registrar office to re register , the state is at it again , they put me as a No Party Preference, even though 06 to 2010 I was in a party , just a heads up , double check your voting Status .
gota love the rain , looks like some great snow pack with more on the way, even though we will be paying more for water , still nice that we’re getting something .
other than watching it rain , it’s put me out of work , two weeks now, it’s ok because I know it’s the calm before the storm , hopefully the storm don’t last too long .
other than that , won’t be long untill the Fat man tries to climb down the Chimney , speaking of fat man and chimneys , I better sweep mine , haven't done it in a while.

I've been a card-carrying Decline to State as long as I can remember. Gotta watch those parties; they go switching things around and before you know it, you are voting for a Martian, or worse.

Well if you are getting sun today, then we should get it tomorrow. Can't wait, need some sunny time to get the rest of my daughter's stuff out of my apartment. Her boyfriend is a no show as always when it comes to moving "their" stuff.

Tempting as it may sound, especially since they owe me $675, and have not made an attempt to pay any of it back, and there is a 55" Samsung TV worth $1,000 in the lot as well as a vintage Gary Fisher titanium bike also reputedly worth $1,000, I can't bring myself to do that. Neither of them have a job, and one is in rehab, the other waiting for an open bed. So, I will just have to move it all myself. The part that makes me mad is that the boyfriend has told me twice he would come over and help, but hasn't. And the day before the Fresno County inspection, when the apartment looked like a hoarder's house, he was here all day and did not move a single thing. Hannah, myself and Dojyena did the work. All because he and Hannah had a fight...

My sister-in-law's ex-husband, who re-married a woman who tragically died from cancer around 20 years ago asked to store her stuff in the barn. Her kids (not from the ex-husband) were supposed to come get the stuff. Well, that was 20 years ago, and the stuff is still there. At some point you have to ask yourself "Are they going to come and get it or not?"

Sounds to me like they don't want it. I doubt I will wait that long, considering I have the gate code, and padlock combination to get into their storage. However, it looks like I will be moving it myself. Once done, I will never again say yes to "can we keep our stuff at your place?"
