    The weather sure does change a lot in OH from -1 to 65 that's quite a jump. You must be going crazy with all the ice and stuff on the road and car windshields that's the only thing I hate about winter is the ice on the windows of the cars.

    We have/had snow. LOTS of snow. We beat our record form last year already, and last year was our biggest winter in years, like 30 years. BUT yesterday we had rain all day and then alittle snow last nite. So there is only
    about a foot or 2 left. Which is OK, because now we have room for the next batch

    That's cool I love white Christmases. A couple years ago I went up to my cabin in northern Ca and I had my first white christmas it was awesome it wasn't much but it was fun running around in it.

    I know what you mean where I live we had a record rain fall and its been really cold. Its hard to believe that people are still saying that global warming is still coming (I think its part of the earths cycle) when its been one of the coldest winters in along time. Thanks

    Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas whether it was wearing coats and mittens or Jimmy Buffet attire.... flip flops, shorts and a tee! Life is great. I believe I had more fun decorating my golf cart with string lights and being in our neighborhood's golf cart parade Christmas Eve more than anything else I have done. Even my yorkie Stimpy, didn't overly fuss about having to wear his Santa hat with antlers. He looked like the Grinch's pooch. He was adorable. My fridge and cabinets are now empty and my guest have departed! Life is good. J/K Now to the planning stages of rolling in the new year and my birthday!

    I had an awesome christmas didn't get much but I didn't care because as long as I was spending it with my family that's all that mattered.

    Wowsers Ray..... 17! That is an exciting age, your whole life just ahead of you. Sometimes I wish I could roll back the decades and keep the lessons I have hard learned in life. But my instincts tell me that I am right where I should be.


    Oh yes..... always be careful for what you wish for, sometimes you will get it!

    Here's the Stimpers! He looks more like a rabid rabbit with antlers! Lol He normally is not so unkempt looking, but he was having entirely too much fun as he too had presents under the tree and well he knew it!

    merry be-lated christmas guys.

    I do hope you all ate & drank far to much. They had to roll me out of the house thats for sure & it starts all over again in 24hrs.

    sorry havn't been around guys, i took a rather unexpected leave due to the financial crunch with the asian markets affecting our markets.
    Because of your $$ sector meltdowns, we thought asian markets would act as the buffer. Turns out we were wrong.
    So with the most paid leave accrued, worst case sitch i was asked to use some of it up.

    so holiday it was at the bottom end of the world!
    Looks the same really, just colder...lol

    anyways, ive a truck load of work i have to complete. I'll check back in after the festive season is over.
    have fun & stay safe you guys!

    I know it is an exciting year just to be 16 right now I'm a sophomore at school doing good I past all my finals in school and am doing great not all As though but doing the best of my ability. And while I'm working on school Im starting my first ever school sport wrestling and having the time of my life. Last year wasn't the funnest year for me during my freshman year I had some bad teachers that didn't teach me the right stuff but that's why I'm trying to make this year and more years to come the best I can. Sometimes like you I could go back fix my mistakes and start over than I think that its better I learn from my mistakes and don't do them again and those mistakes is what makes me me.

    Your dog looks so cute and looks like hes having fun. I'm sure he enjoyed his presents I normally get presents for my dogs but with me not having a job right now I had no money for them so I just gave them a big hug and some ham from my plate. lol
