The storm rolled in this afternoon around 1 p.m. I didn’t even noticed it not til my coworkers were crowding the windows at work looking at the sky that turned day to midnight. Then the thunder said hello to us and followed by its friend, the lightning. Then the one that got me running to [...]
It’s summer, not officially yet, but I am already not into the weather. The temps have been so far warm in the shade and in the sun, it’s hot. Honestly, it has been quite okay so far with temps in the 50′s F in the mornings and on some nights we get free air-conditioning. With [...]
Happy Memorial day to all whatever that’s left of the day. It was a three-day weekend for me and it sure didn’t seem like three days. The days went by so fast. Yesterday, Sunday, several tornados hit the Midwest. There was one fatal touched down in Hugo, MN, which is about 55 miles north of [...]
My company has this fitness challenge which started today. I registered as a team to compete with 184 other teams within the company. How this works is you score 1 point for every 10 minutes of physical activity you do. Sex included, I wonder?? Anyways, I am glad I signed up coz I’m slacking in [...]
The first sign of spring for me is when the birds starts chirping in the morning, all day long. Then the warmer temps breeze right in to melt the darn snow. Whatever’s left of the snow is good to clean the boys’ up after their walk. They will be super dirty from the slush on [...]
Good Friday on March 21st. I thought I could call in because we will be snowed it. Dang, no such luck. It snowed over night but not that bad. About an inch or two. But then once I got to work at 6 a.m., it snowed harder, flakes were bigger. They were those wet snow [...]
It started with rain yesterday which turned to snow and more snow this morning. Those wet kind of snow where it sticks to everything. It made commute to work really shitty. It took me 25 minutes to get to work. Freeways were ploughed but still the falling snow was not fun for morning commuters. There were a [...]
The disgusting melted snow in the backyard. It is so muddy out there and at some parts of the yard with the melted snow, it’s almost ankle deep with water. Yuck!!!! Ugly thing….I want the snow to go real fast since it’s so gross and makes the boys dirty. It is getting old cleaning them [...]
Nice day today, blue skies in the morning and partly cloudy in the afternoon, but don’t be deceived by the beautiful sight out there. It was -14F when I left the office building this afternoon at 2:30 p.m. With the weather so damn cold today, guess what happened??? Yeppers, my car wouldn’t start no matter [...]
Don’t you hate it when you have a song that keeps playing and playing like an old broken record in your head since you open your eyes to face another gorgeous day with minus eighteen temperature with windchill of minus 45F? What is that song? It’s this song from Feist, 1-2-3-4. For some reason I cannot [...]
Like all Minnesotans will say, “If you don’t like the weather in Minnesota, wait 5 minutes.” Sure thing, the weekend and yesterday’s temps were just nice which was in the 40s, perfect for outdoor activities (for me at least). Snow were melting away – slush and water along the sidewalks and streets, tho there were still [...]
The weekend’s weather was bone chilling. The arctic blast the midwest with temperatures dipped down to minus 20F in the evenings with windchill of minus 45F. The snapshot below was Friday afternoon at 2:15 p.m. When I got home I took the boys for their walk. Like I told DB, it wasn’t that bad since [...]
Today is the first day of winter and there is snow flying furiously right now. It’s not those light one either, they are those heavy and wet. The temp this morning when we got up was 33 degrees F, and will continue to drop throughout the day. At least we will have fresh white snow [...]
The boys are getting their dose of fall allergies. It’s an every year thing. Spring and fall they will both itch like they have fleas on them. Ranger’s allergies are pretty much in control throughout spring and summer but the fall allergies really kicked some butt. His predisone is kicking in but because of the pollens, [...]
