More rain for us in Northern California. How's the weather where you are?

It was supposed to rain last night, but it waited until this morning--at least at my house. I'm happy, because it means I don't have to worry about my balcony snow peas, not to mention the ones at the preschool and Kaiser. Heh.
Some of the kids' snow peas ARE coming up now. In a week or to we'll transfer them from the Dixie cups to the planter beds.
How the weather where you are? I hope we have at least one or two snows this Winter up on Mt. Diablo, so we can drive up there and make little snow men. I can't see Mt. Diablo right now (clouds), but it's cold outside, so it could be snowing above 3500 feet or so.

Our forty days of rain have slacked off a bit. But it was really cold today for eastern NC...35 F!

@TheHorse 35 is real cold for here, too! I actually put on a jacket. (I love to buy coats, I just don't like wearing them.)

@1creekgirl I have my "California" Winter coat and my "real" Winter coat. Here, I never take my "real" Winter coat out of the closet.

Was sunny yesterday, no rain. I woke up early today so I could give Danie a walk. The moment we came back home it started raining only for a minute and it stopped. Sunny again now.

@TheHorse Yep but our weather is way much warmer than Florida.

@toniganzon That's my impression. My friend from there gets "SAD," even though it never really gets cold here.

Hello, Horse. We were burned out of Paradise and now live in Santa Fe with my son. It snowed yesterday, but just cloudy today. Oh, P.S. I just got a really nice mahogany Ibanez guitar. I just love it So easy to play and such a great tone. Wish I'd gotten one a long time ago

@TheHorse yes there are a lot of artists and galleries here. I'd visited once since Devin moved here and loved it. I had thought I might move here when my folks were gone, didn't expect to come here this abruptly, especially with my 98 year old mother, but here we are. I'm glad at least your friends' guest house was okay, and their animals. I do hope they are able to rebuild.

I was wondering what happened to you. My friends Howie and Carol (she ran that consignment store on the main drag--it's gone) lost their house but not their guest house. Their horses, kitties and even chickens survived. I may go up there and help them rebuild later this Winter. Santa Fe is a prettty cool town, isn't it? Is it still pretty "artsy fartsy"?

@CinnamonGrl We shall see what happens up in Pleasure...I mean...Paradise (did you get the joke? Or rather, are you following The joke?). Is your mom doing OK?

@xander6464 I have the thing fueled up. Can you guarantee some decent snow for snow man building? I'm kind of "frugal." I'm a Social Services worker, you know.

I would not mind snow if I could go visit it that easy. We are cold and snow covered.

@TheHorse We usually start getting a fair break in March. This has been an easy winter so far.

@wolfgirl569 I worry that more and more Winters will be "easy" as the years progress. Will more "Russians" and "Asians" come across the straits, as they did 11,000 years ago, and populate America?

@TheHorse well I hope so because tonight is another brisk night so hopefully by the end of the week the cold spell will again be over.

Today started with a cloud covered day which I enjoyed walking to the library from the bus stop. Now being here for a few hours I peaked out the big glass windows, and see that blue skies returned. Weather report says till Thurs or Fri sunny with light breezes...but then we are going to have rain...so far not heavy rains.

@oahuwriter I thought Matthew 6 was about giving to the needy in secret, so we're not like the people who proclaim to be Christian, but may or may not be.

Hoping the weather behaves and no disaster occurs, Jesus, thank you. Read in Mathew 1-6 to depend on Jesus for safer weather and weather protection. We need rain for water, but too much can be so devastating. Take care and stay dry and safe, pal!

It's cold but no snow. We had snow Saturday but it was the good kind: it didn't impact the roads, and it was gone by evening.
