Throw Back Thursday

The big news of the week, mum no longer has to wear that clunky old boot for her ankle. She has to wear a brace if she is outside, inside the house she is good to go, unless she is doing the dungeon stairs.
Phew, now I can chill and rest. The last two months have been exhausting!
Today's throw back? Winter weather woes with Derby.


Finally Friday

Friday, January 9, 2010


OK mum is laughing and grumbling at the weather guessers on TV. They got the snow totals all screwed up and the places that were supposed to get the most are getting the least and vice versa. They said for us 6-11 inches, we maybe got 4.

Now they are saying 6-8, but they don't say if this is TOTAL snow fall or IN ADDITION TO what we already have. Mum says they need to be specific, but then we might be able to pin them down on something!
This picture is from our big storm in December, but mum thought it was pretty to show. One thing that made mum happy is that when she got home she parked the metal monster out on the street. When she got out she realized that someone had already cleared out the snow from the driveway. So mum just had to put the garbage can away, it was empty, then drive the metal monster in to its room.

Oh, mum is getting her coat and boots on, the big truck came and finally picked up our recycling. Mum can get that thing out of the street now.

Oh yeah, I found a cute new little ginger kittie from the UK, Maximus Spittimus. If you haven't stopped by to say 'hi' yet, please do so.

Me I thinks I will just nap.


Happy Weekend one and all.

  1. The weather guessers never get it right and haven't improved over the years.
    They said we would get a cold hard winter, but so far it has been very wet and mild.
    Your mum must be so relieved to not have to wear that boot any more, Ducky. Now you will have to keep an eye on her to make sure she doesn't try overdoing things.

  2. Oh I'll bet your mum is so relieved! That snow made my dad shiver and get extra thankful that we're in the south.

  5. My broken finger bones were feeling achy this morning, and it's almost 2 years since. I've forgotten to exercise them, so I can only remind your mom to do everything the doc says to make her heal the best way possible!
