We were supposed to hit record 50's/60's and have thunderstorms and wind all week. It has been 50-ish (WONDERFUL!) but the rains only just started- finally! (I love rain!) I can't wait to get off in 2 hours from my graveyard shift, drive home in the downpour, and snuggle-up under my blankie & quilt w/ my two kitties to the sounds of the wind whippin' the rain against the side of my building all day long! I love gettin' all cozy & comfy with my furry critters in this kind of weather... And they luv it too (Or at least they just submit quietly, knowin' full well they ain't got a choice in the matter... Hee-Hee!)

I love the rain too! I woke up last night to the rain pouring on my roof and it was music to my ears. I even like to play in the rain when the weather is warmer. :)

Yes, it rained today and got up to almost 50. I shaved the beard today too! I think we probably lost 3-4 inches of snow, but it is really foggy here now lol..

It rained all day today in Chicago and it was crisp and there was diffidently a chill. I didn't even bother to dry my hair-or blow dry it or straighten it. Just wore it natural, curly that is. Cookie :)

My goodness the WIND! Last night I thought our house was being taken off to OZ! We slept in the basement because the huge trees around our house where shaking so violently we were afraid they would fall on the house. Luckily this morning the only damage was lots of fallen branches to clean up. Our heavy metal and glass table that stays outside was turned upside down.

We got some crazy winds last night and they gave a tornado watch til 8pm. Jon and I went to Sams Club over on the OH side which is about 40 miles there and 40 back for me. The wind was blowing the car so bad it was hard to hold the car on the road and I came up on one tree across the road. Everything under the sun was in the roads from roofing/siding to garbage cans. We really should have stayed in.
I did get some nice things at Sams. They had 10 pounds of yukon gold potatoes for $4.19 Here is town you pay that for 3 pounds of them. Jon got me some Valentines candy and I loaded up on spring mix salad, baby spinach, olive oil, garlic and cherry/grape tomatoes. I stopped at Walmart and got some fresh basil. I think some bruschetta sounds good for today. Im going to get some sort of Italian cheese today for a spinach pasta dish I want to make. I also picked up capers for a puttanesca recipe I want to try. I def have a taste for Italian food right now lol.
