I don't think that I'll get to the post office today. Plus it is supposed to rain this afternoon and probably tommorow. I hope not I have to get that water pump in. I'll try and get the nose of the truck inthe garage but it is a tight fit. The other stall is full of furniture that I have decide if I want to sell or keep. It may be cheaper in the long run to sell it then buy new stuff when I move.

Not always. It gets cold here but not for as long, and not as cold, as the northern and eastern Yankee states. I am thinking this will be our last chilly snap and then we are warm until November.

Hurricane season starts in June!
I'm sure that you did!!!

Ok I was starting to wonder if the cold would be following us to Texas.
It's funny because Brandon is saying that Alabama is the place to move to and all the Texas members are saying there, Brad even talked to me once about Missouri, but they get that white stuff and the cold that J-Land I don't want anymore.

Morning everyone!

Lisa- Dog get "winter itch" just like we do. If a topical cream dosn't work, you can give them a half of a Benadryl to help with the itch.
