Thursday, ............just after noon....

The noontime 'air raid' siren/noon whistle just went off about 5 minutes ago. Can't hear it from home but it's loud and clear downtown at the office. I'm listening to XM, of course, and listening to My Friend Irma. They don't have many episodes of this show but I haven't heard this episode in quite a while. The actress that plays Irma sounds very much like a girl I used to know, and even has her logic! You have to know the show, but as written and played, she must have been one of the early really ditsy blond characters.

Not much going on, it's been spring like and much of the snow has evaporated as the temps climbed. EVERYTHING is getting green very fast! Although just about 60 right now, a couple of days ago was practically a heat wave with temps getting into low 70's! I'm guessing no more sticking snow until next fall now! When your body gets used to those much cooler temps a sudden rise like this can seem so hot and like 90 instead of 70. Here at the office the maintenance guy said he can't turn down or off the building heat so in the afternoons I'm already running my window A/C unit because it climbs to about 80 because heat rises and we're on the second floor.

Laura has been calling as grand baby Tyler has been pretty sick for much of a week. For a while it was thought he may have Pneumonia, now it is the Flu and Strep Throat instead. He's only 3! He's feeling better today according to Laura and by his next appointment on Monday, if it is the Flu, he should be feeling a lot better. We're hoping he'll be better really soon.

Sandy and Erik both ran a 5 K run last weekend in the L.A. area. We've very proud of them both, they both finished and were only about 7 minutes apart time wise. She's still working and teaching and taking lots of photos. They're giving up with the management of the apartment they've been living at for the last few years. Constant rate increases, lack of maintenance support, they've had it and are planning to move by the end of May.

Sean and Brandy are doing fine and just cruising along.

Today Stacy is at a meeting with her boss down in Coeur D' Alene. She drove the truck, I drove the Solstice today!

That's the update today! Tad

February 1st

Just as with the last post I wrote, Stacy is again down in Boise for meetings. This time two days of different types that she was wrangled into going for when the supervisor didn't want to go. These are some high end "department head" meetings and state wide commissioners from the state are there too. Stacy does feel a little out of place but she should do well in any event. It was winter again over the weekend, we woke up on Saturday to a light snow. It wasn't sticking then and it snowed all day without any staying on the ground. Overnight into Sunday it got cold enough and started to stay. Got almost two inches and it snowed all day yesterday too. Actually it was nice. Stacy had to drive over to Spokane (2- 1/2 hours away) for her flight to Boise and when she called she said it was slow going much of the way towards Coeur d' Alene then the snow became rain from before that area on. It is usually colder here than Sandpoint (because of the large lake there), and S...

Just an update

It is getting more like fall to winter now in our area. All the weather forecasts give the possible snow levels and altitudes in the recordings. The temps have been in the low 50's for the past week which is the normal temp range. It has warmed up at night to the low thirties from the low twenties of last week and earlier this week. Next week it's forecasting only low to mid forties! For the high temps! In looking at photos and the older blogs, last October 27th, 2009, was the first snow of the season back then. Will it snow around the same time this year? Stacy and I are both off work next week because our daughter Laura and her son, the only grand kid so far, will be flying out this Sunday for a weeks visit. Stacy and I are really looking forward to the visit. Last time Laura was here was in the summer of 2006 for a couple of weeks. Quite a lot has changed in her little family since then! And Tyler is 4 years old now so he might do more than sleep or cry as he did last visit!...

Its Fall again!

Although the date this says 'posted' is from a while back, I'm online to type about theses photos and get this posted for you to see today, October 12th! I'd uploaded these and the next post couple of photos fully intending to get right back to it in a day or so, it just didn't happen like that. Stacy's father took a trip to California to visit family out there and since he was gone (he's getting back tomorrow night) we've been very busy working at home as well as stuff going on at work. So it's been busy, busy, busy! Stacy left this morning to fly to Boise for meetings (again!) and will be back late tomorrow too. On to these photos; top one is actually on our property, just out back in the forest. The fern was just going yellow to gold then, on this fall morning, it is really golden and rust browns now just a couple of weeks later. Middle photo is a road a little over a mile away in the early evening that I liked with the late day sun on the Aspen ...
