This morning it looked funny with all the plants moved into the greenhouse.
Plants Moved
All the lemon and lime trees had been sitting here under the trees but we moved them all into the greenhouse yesterday afternoon.
Lights
Vince had set up lights for the air conditioner guys who were working after dark. They’re still out there but I’m going to move them back into the shop.
Residue
It looks like something got shredded but that’s the residue from the insulation that was blown into the attic yesterday. I tried raking it up but it’s so windy, it’s just blowing everywhere so, for now . . I’ll just pretend it’s snow! 🙂
The other day on Facebook, a friend from when we lived in Kentucky asked me if I ever miss the snow and yes, I do. I miss those first couple of snows when it’s clean and white and pretty. I don’t miss lots of snow and having to keep the driveway plowed or shoveled. I don’t miss trying to keep the chickens’ water from staying frozen, or making several trips an hour to the chicken coop to get eggs before they freeze. It’s a toss up for me as to which I dislike most: months of 110°+ or the snow. It seems that in MO, which is probably the only place we’d ever go if we left Texas, they have some pretty hot, dry summers too . . not quite as long as we have; but they definitely have way more harsh winters, as well as more chances of severe weather so for now, I’m pretty happy to be in Texas. No place is perfect but our little spot here is about as perfect as it’s ever going to get for us.

I miss the snow too – dont miss the mud or slush or ice!!! I didnt even mind the shoveling – well, not too much. The time we had to hand shovel out the alley so my husband could get to work (I couldnt go to work even tho they said they would send someone to pick me up because we couldnt get the kids to the babysitter) – that was rough – but especially so because just as we got within a foot of the end a neighbor came thru with his little plow and said he would have done it for us! we lived on a snow route so our street was amongst the first plowed – but they didnt do the alleys!
Now my husband says he does not miss the snow – but he didnt even do most of the shoveling! LOL

What?!?! MO has colder weather than TX? Now you tell me…we just bought tickets for MO for Christmas. Guess we’d better pull out the warmer clothing before we go and make certain it is ready to wear.
We lived in NH for five winters. We’d shovel out our double long driveway all the way to the street, then the snowplow would come through and leave a two foot high berm across the end of our driveway. I don’t miss that!
