A spring teaser day with highs in the low to mid 60’s, lots of sunshine, and a bit breezy. It will turn cold and nasty again but it was a nice day.

We had an okay day at the store with sales. Not real busy with customers but Joyce and I were busy doing store organization stuff and working on some of that big donation.

A break from mother nature with lots of sunshine and highs in the low 40’s most of the day. Clouds have rolled in late this afternoon but I don’t thing we are supposed to get any precipitation.

We had a busy day at the store. Mostly out of town folks. Had a few nice donations to work on. We did make over $100.00 so a good day after a slow week due to the weather.

Light snow began to fall around 7 this morning. It’s been snowing all day but no accumulation except a little covering on the grass. May get some more tonight. Temps are to drop down into the single digits and we will have those wonderful gusting winds again.

Thanks to DOT here the roads were just wet. I opened the store at regular time. One of our regular customers showed up about half an hour later with a nice donation for me to work on.

Joyce came in at 1:00. We changed out the window and the front table. Had a few customers come in this afternoon.

Sunny but chilly today with blustery winds. Highs in the mid 30’s. We had just a dusting of snow over night and lows were back down into the teens.

The roads were well salted when I left for the gym this morning. Wendy and Donna got here around 11:30 then we left for Elkin for a road trip today instead of crafting. We had lunch at Jersey Mike’s then hit the Dollar Tree and Ollie’s. Picked up a few crafting supplies for myself and to put in the she shed supplies to share with others.

It was warmer down the mountain. We got back home around 3 pm.

For all of Bob’s readers, I have fixed the problem on Bob’s site.

Wet and cold today with highs in the low 40’s.

Despite the nasty weather we still had a good day at the store. Both yesterday and today we made over $100.00 which is good for this time of year.

Calm before the next storm. Today dawned sunny and warm with highs expected to be in the low 50’s. It rained hard over night and with the warm temperatures not a trace of ice to be seen. I only have a couple of big branches down in the back that I will get to at some point.

More nasty/bad weather is expected to move in for the weekend.

I went to the gym and the grocery store to be pick the usual weekly supplies. Household ods and ends this afternoon.

Instead of being snowed in I am iced in. Freezing stuff started falling early yesterday morning. It was supposed to be some snow with freezing rain and sleet bur so far all we have had is freezing stuff. About half an inch to an inch with more to come this afternoon.

So I have been in since Monday. I have everything I need and no where I have to be so all is well. Hopefully things will warm up by tomorrow and start melting this mess.

Sunny today and warm with highs in the low 50’s.

We had a good day at the store. Steady all day and did over $100.00. Had several donations come in to work on as well.

I went to Donna’s after work for dinner. She made eggplant parm with a side of baked pasta. Yum. Got to play with the dogs for awhile, too.
