It’s Christmas’ eve, the sun is out early in the morning. The streets are covered with snow. The wind is howling from every directions and the cold is biting me alive.
-
Perfect set up this year as xmas and new years both on friday.
but pandemic eff it all up. Could of been a 2 weeks vacation for me and destination might be mn for the snow.
We talking about pre pandamic, party started on thurs through sunday, back to back weekends.
Now, it is all about solo mission, dodging people and self isolation if we wanted to survive. My vaccine order is in and I'm ready to get my shot(s). Besides that, I'm solo fishing in a bit. Nothing else to do ya know? Catching fish and bragging about it in your facebook group, yeah that.
End of the month, bills getting payed and more checks than bills are coming in for me. I just need to survive till Jan 1st 2021 to see them checks though. Just one more week to go. At least I got something positive to look forward to. O0
-
Yesterday’s little snow and wind was brutal. Whiteout conditions pretty much all afternoon into the Wednesday evening. Today, sunny but cold, 0 degrees. We’ll see if we’ll go hang out with the in-laws later. Merry Christmas and stay safe my friend.
-
So far so good, been busy passing out gifts/gift cards and Merry Christmas/thank you cards to my staff but it's all done now.
Agree with Duma that if it weren't for the pandemic these two upcoming major "Friday" holidays would be a lot better...We would be traveling somewhere for sure. But at least we're all healthy so that's a blessing.
Merry Christmas everyone! O0

I can't go fishing anymore.
-
I can't go fishing anymore.
dude, don't say "anymore"
you act like you lost both arms so you can't fish no more
happy holidays to all
-
It has been foggy for the last few days. And now, snowing. We’re expecting between 5”-9” for today and tomorrow. With the wind gust of 3MPH.
Be careful and drive safely.
Hope it’s better wherever you are .

So far so good. I say, any morning you step out of bed is a good day already. Thanks for asking. Cold morning, 12 degrees. Think I might run to the gas station for a cup of coffee. Have a good day my Friend.
-
I was not able to go fishing in the cold.
I'll be fishing again soon.

Freaking cold every day now. Cars are spinning off the roads like it’s the norm.
-
They say the colder it is, the better ice-fishing will be.
But I don't fish on ice.
So, I still can't go fishing yet.

If I'm missing out on half a year to do the stuff I like motorcycling and other outdoor activities due to that kind of interference, I'm out...Will not live in places like that unless I really have to.. ;D ;D ;D
For those that actually like it, more power to you.. O0

Been living up here in the mid-west since 1988. You just forgot about time. Sure, it gets cold in the winter months but, eh, don't mind it too much. Since, I'm still here.
-
I think I'll be able to fish in open water soon.

Today's high was 76 and drove to work with targa top off and now it's windy. NC bipolar weather.

So-so.
-
Snow storm cause an ugly condition today for most Minnesotans. Some areas are expecting 11 inches. Around the twin cities should be between 7-9.
Missing NC weather.

That's probably why I've never considered living in MN, WI and other areas of the frozen tundra..
Even in California, had an opportunity to live in Tahoe years ago but turned it down because of the winter weather there..
-

Yes, salavon the winter away. Might suggest some lum vong classes for extracurricula r activity to the other half. Too much activities, not enough time.

Dafuq!?!? You don't know how? My homie makes some good duck with blood. His wife is an even better cook. One time she made some bomb azz kapoon at my request.
-
Lucky you! Enjoy!
Don’t consume too much of the blood. Once in a while should be okay.
-
Shoveled some snow yesterday on the driveway and the sidewalk.
It wasn't so bad. The snow wasn't that thick and there was no ice or anything hardening.
But I can't go jogging in the park this morning. Why? It's not plowed yet.
-
It’s ccccold today!
-
-4, my Siri tells me.
Okay. Maybe that's another reason for not jogging in the park.
-
I'm traveling so my day is GRAND! O0

Got invitation for nYE parties but I'll cancelled myself this year. I know it will be a no mask house party.
If they cancelled fireworks, they know it is still not safe.
If it clears up and open roads to reno this weekend, both sunshine days, I might head to the snow for some snowboarding activities. Gonna be a zoo up there with the holiday and good sunny weather plus the big time snow that we been having. O0
-
Temperature is rising again. No snow in the immediate forecast. This winter is warmer than other past winters, even though it is colder than other seasons in the year.
-
Christmas was in the mid 70's for NC and NYE was in the 60's.
-
Back to work on Monday. Light day only half staff as half are taking this monday off while the other half took the previous friday off.
No work, nothing to do so hunting on PH for a good argument going on here. :2funny:
-
morning all,
so far so good. another cold morning, -11 degrees atm. all those cancun packages or warm weather climates are starting to look very enticing right about now. but, oh well, have a good day and tgif.
-
I'm still in a good mood despite this up and down temperature.
-
Today’s temperature was so good, I went out and jogged in the woods for an hour.
-
You can’t be serious man lol
-
The temperature or the jog?
You can’t be serious man lol
-
The jog in that temperature lol
-
I can be. I just don't want to be. ;D ;D

Not so bad today. +3.

It’s ugly out today. Drive safe Minnesotans!

Tried jogging today but the snow was so thick, way high up, couldn't quite lift my feet over them.
-
70 today in NC ;D
I sure miss the Queen City.

And we're back at 50's again. That NC bipolar weather :2funny:

Correction, low 40's. Daa'aam it's cold.

What do you missed about the Queen City? What is your recommendation to see and to eat around there as I will be traveling there in the near future?
-

There’s not much to see as a visitor, for the local everyone are different in what they like to do and eat.
You should try the claypot at Lan Vang and dim sum on Central. As for sightseeing, NASCAR hall of fame, Botanical garden, and Crowders mountain.
-

I couldn't live in MN. I don't know how you can do it. I hate snow.

Yes, we are all different in what we like to do and eat. Is Lan Vang a Hmong restaurant, Vang is a dead giveaway? Appreciate the feedback, will visit Crowders Mountain from your list.
-
No, it’s Vietnamese. You’re welcome:
-
We're in our 30s today. I would jog outside if the snow wasn't still kind of thick.
Oh, well. I can wait till spring.
-
80 today and no snow :2funny:
-
Looks like spring is here already with all these slushes around town.
But how come I don't see any robin yet?
-
Cloudy day(s) in the neighborhood. Looks like we might get rain since it’s too warm for snow. Yay! :toothy2:
-
Rain will thaw out the piles of snow we still have around.
Then the robins can come out after that.
-
Reporter, please, don’t kill them robins ;D
-
It's a beautiful day and will be heading out to a birthday celebration then to a funeral.
-
Who the hell works on a saturday? Well this Saturday I do.
No market to kill time
No PH being active to kill time although I'm hunting for someone to kill time with
Currently drinking coffee and eating a bowl of dry cocoa puff cereal and browsing the interweb to look for something to do. Oh and I'll keep my eyes on the latest new about the war and sanctions. Whatever they say there will be valuable due come monday when trading begins again. O0
-
You know me, Proudlao. I hunt but I don't hunt illegally. Robins are not to be hunted no matter what season. I'm thinking of going to Oklahoma where robins are not protected and shoot one down to taste though. I don't know what robins taste like.
The funny thing is just yesterday I heard two cardinals singing already. I was telling my relatives that spring is finally here, because "these birds give better signals than robins do." But this morning, the birds were silenced out.
Damn! Had to shovel for 40 minutes. When will my jogging trail clear up?
Reporter, please, don’t kill them robins ;D
-
Must be a very twisted day to have both a birth and funeral day on the same day.
I'd would attend the funeral first. Then that sadness can be absorbed in by the birthday party.
It's a beautiful day and will be heading out to a birthday celebration then to a funeral.
-
Another beautiful day of mid 70s.
-
Birds chirping woke me up 2day.
-
The temperature was 34 this morning, so I thought I would go out and run. Turned out, the park trails were still icy and my feet were slipping away from the center. So, it was quite a challenge.
I heard not just cardinals but robins singing now.
-
Yeah, took this photo and Chicago still has a little bit of snow left:
(https://i.imgur.com/gDk82jH.jpg)
-
This is not a good time anything yet.
-
But the locals said, temps are pretty mild for this time of the year there especially by the Great Lakes.. ???:
(https://i.imgur.com/cf3RlCo.jpg)
-
Yesterday’s rain melted and washed off the remaining amount of snow we had that had been piling up.
That was hopeful.
But, damn, more snow just fell down onto our surfaces again this morning.
Good thing it’s not big enough to require shoveling.
-
The flurries! So thick and huge!
-
But no snow coming down this time of year is going to last more than a few hours.
I'm going to run again tomorrow.
-
Still a bit of wind to chill up the morning. But that makes a good run on the trail and up the hills back to the truck each time.
-
This morning was extremely chilly, much like the middle of this past winter.
But this afternoon was quite a relief: 30 degrees with a wind speed of just 10 mph.
-
Bipolar NC weather got cold again brrrrrrr :idiot2:
-
This morning went back to that winter cold again but the wind flies only at 4 mph. So, the cold isn't slicing anything off.
-
Can’t wait for the wind to completely die out.
So ready to do yard work.
-

Yard work? You wanna mow my 2 acres? I'll give you some 30ft+ bamboo.
-
It's a bit warmer this morning but with a strong wind.
I walked by a lady who was walking her dog. "I saw some mice on the grass. You can see life now. It's still ..."
I cut her off and said "chilly, a bit cold, yes. But I also saw some squirrels hopping around."
"You can tell nature knows it's time," she said.
"Right."
-

I'll give you all the bamboo. It's been growing for 20+ years. I'll have to chop them down in the future.

Too bad I’m not there anymore. I would have brought my entire clan for your bamboo.

Bad road conditions this morning. I was nervous on 694.
-
Surprised!
Snow on again.
This makes it so hard to play in the park.
-
My day is going great and my nights will be back to normal. YEAY!!!!! I feel like doing a happy dance!!!
-
Surprised!
Snow on again.
This makes it so hard to play in the park.
We will have to wait another month lol

It had better not make record by going into May!
-
2 departments left early and I'm still here at work. On my 4th 30min break :'(
-
The snow that fell yesterday hasn't melted.
-
Two Americans were jogging over the snow in the cold this morning: one man and one woman.
-

Were they White "Americans", Black Americans, Asian Americans and to be more specific Hmong Americans since it's in your neck of the woods?? ???
Just wondering...

Got my work evaluation and it was exceeds expectations except one. Boss believes I could do more as lead and wants me as a lead. I respectfully declined his offer. I ain't trying to work and stress out. I've seen what leads go through. Hakuna matata is my life's motto 8)
-
In Hmong vernacular, when we say “American”, thss as t automatically means Whites. Sometimes even White Germans who aren’t known to be so ardd Ed referred to as Mericsns, too. So are Norwegians and English. Etc. All Whites.

If you’re good at it. You should reconsider. It comes with pay and rewarding feelings.
-
Can't go fishing or hunting if you take that job and always have to start early and end late and work in weekends and OT and even running the whole department.

Windy and chilly. Few people were out at the park this morning.
Can't wait for the afternoon sun to bring in some low heat.
-
I’m ready to smell fresh cut grass!
-
Chillax-sing on the front porch and waiting for my package to arrive. :D
-
I'm ready to go out and jog in the park twice a day.
-
This strong wind with the chalky flakes makes it so hard to workout outside.
-
Where is spring? Where are my green grass?
-
How’s your day?
It’s my Friday, so it’s excellent! O0
-
The wind continues to be strong, whistling around the fences.
-
I hate pollen. It's all over my car.
-
No, it's not still winter. It's just spring snow we're getting.
-
Sure happy it’s Friday. Hope for a much better weather tomorrow.
Enjoy your weekend everyone!
-
A bit nicer today. It's in the low 30s.
-
It’s snowing again today. >:( I love the snow but I’m so ready for warmer weather.

Incessant drips from the cloudy sky above. This kind of rain is very stubborn and refuses to end. Not good for anything outside at all.
-
Currently recovering from a friend's wedding this past weekend.
-
Powerful wind this morning. A good excuse not to go places.
-
This weeks seems to drag but excited to mow the lawn tomorrow! It’s about time!
-
A tree fell onto my walking trail after last night's storm. So, I moved the tree and pulled out a vine to tie it up onto another nearby tree. That cleared up the trail.
-
The wind and rain in this state is no joke.
Beautiful foggy morning today.
-
There's more green out there this morning.
-
My grass is starting to look good too... O0
Therefore, my day is going well (both personally and on PH)...business as usual.. O0 O0

Nice sunny day. I think I'll go buy a Daniel Defense M4V7 Pro.

It has been a beautiful week, can’t wait for the weekend.
