THE GREAT SEAL OF OAK RIDGE TENNESSEE

Thursday, February 3, 2022 Rain Rain Rain 52 Degrees 4:56 p.m.

The weatherman said it was going to rain through Friday morning, with the rain turning to snow or hail Friday morning early. That is when the cold front is going to arrive. I am not complaining as so many people are having tons of snow and ice, power outages and all kinds of weather problems. Here, we are doing well and I am very thankful. There is an ice storm due to hit someplace in Indiana or Kentucky and farther up the east coast. My heart goes out to those people.

It has been a quiet day here. With the rain only Tina has gone out and that was to go to work. She said that it wasn’t raining when she left. It is raining now so will be when she get off.

Yesterday was Groundhog day. He saw his shadow so we will have 6 more weeks of winter. That is what the calendar says also. This week we have “celebrated Chinese New Year, Groundhog Day and coming up is Constitution Day in Mexico. Also my oldest son’s birthday. The big 60. He is working his way towards becoming a member of A.A.R.P.!

A busy week for the first week in February!

There have been two major fires in empty buildings in Knoxville, set by unauthorized people making their home there and setting warming fires during these cold winder days and nights. The fire marshal said that this happens a lot but this time it was a major building that was vacant. There are plenty of places the homeless can go to escape the weather and have hot meals and places to sleep, etc. so they should give up their drugs and take advantage of them.

Other then Milo begging for an early dinner, there isn’t much going on around here. A couple of dogs have been walked, their masters with umbrellas and the dogs without and don’t seem to care. I think they just like getting out and getting some exercise and fresh air.

Have a great rest of your day. Make it a great day full of cheerfulness, kindness, and fun. And productivity.

Blessings
