Weather
It's 27 degrees here in Upstate NY with a lot of snow. It's a heat wave for us today. LOL.
Weather in NY
This coming week in Upstate NY it's going to be 95 and possibly above. It should get a little warmer in Lake George, I would think...possibly? It's always a lot of fun in Lake George. When I was young, we went there very year on vacation for many years.
Squiters ain't as bad as the below 0 weather..sm
guess I just can't take the humidity and the heat though. I had been to VA beach and it seemed fine to me..not dirty or ugly..I liked it. The women there will steal your husbands if you ain't lookin' though...lost my husband, my home, and had to go through Isabel all alone. Came runnin' back home to WI as soon as divorce courts would allow. bad memories, I guess. some people like it...some people don't. I am one that don't. sorry. but I did love Shenandoah Valley...gorgeous area! Love the mountains!
Could it be cooler weather? - nm

Hello, how are you, nice weather - that's it.

bad weather in Atlanta
My sister lives there but they just got a lot of thunder and some rain, northeast of Atlanta. I hate to even hear the word. I hope it quietens there soon for you.
Are you WA state? I am and you just described our weather!
My kids keep asking me to put on the heater but I don't want to because this is when I'm supposed to be SAVING money on electricity. I wonder if the mountain snow is a record of latest lower-land snow? This year has been CRAZY weather!
It's been in the low 70's. Beautiful weather. Come on down!
xx
Weather was just too gorgeous today.
I went outside in a sleeveless shirt to decide how to dress to walk the dogs, and ended up tidying up the yard instead! Won't my neighbors be relieved, LOL.
Yes, the dogs eventually got their walk, but first I fed them. Sasha decided not to eat tonight ... until I explained that we'd go for a walk only after she ate. She ate it right up and then did her time-for-my-walk dance!
Hope this weather makes it up north soon.
It is hot upstate, definitely swim weather, sm
You tend to have cooler temps over there. Upstate and across the river, much warmer.
Hmmm, rather than warm weather, could it be
menopause? I don’t have the sweating during the night. As far as the weather, my grown daughter told me one time if she had been born where there was snow (as you are talking about) as soon as she grew up she would get outta there- it is just what you prefer. I have only been snowed in twice in the past say 15 years and that is fine with me. Oh, I do enjoy the soup and salad at Olive Garden- and eat without sweating.
Where do you live that it is snow weather?
It's been close to 90 almost all week here in central PA. My DH loves snow and is ready to move north.
could be a weather balloon; they were orange

LOL! If you don't like the weather in Georgia, just hang around SM
a while and it will change soon!
How's the weather in your neck of the woods?
Mid 70s here in the Northeast with bright warm sunshine! Woo Hoo ! It's a doozy of a day.
What is the weather, What is the price, size, etc. sm
I am freezing up here. Would love to be able to buy and not rent.
I don't bring my dog anywhere around food, unless it's nice weather and
the tables and chairs. It is allowed where I live. I have never seen anyone bring their dog into the grocery store unless it is an assist dog, I do bring my dog in her stroller into the mall and I have yet to have gotten kicked out over it. Children LOVE to look at my dog in the stroller. It is the type of stroller that has a screen on it so children can look and parents are not fearful that my dog would bite. My dog doesn't bite but it's an added precaution.
In comparison, my dog is friendly, is not a yapper, is well groomed, and potty trained. I have seen many, many children who are ill behaved, running around uncontrollably and I've several times passed by babies in strollers who smell like their diaper hasn't been changed in a week.
To the person who supposedly has the severe allergy, I say this...If you have such a severe allergy to dogs, then you most likely have severe allergies to a bunch of other stuff, too, and like the other poster said, you could just as easily be allergic to passing by the perfume counter as you would my 4 lb. chihuahua.
Lastly, to the OP, you need a lesson in manners. Even if you don't agree with the dog being in the store, you shouldn't have gotten ugly with the owner. She was minding her business, why didn't you just mind yours?
"Baghdad" update: crummy weather!
Our weekend in SF was unseasonably crummy - even for San Francisco! I was in Golden Gate Park on Sunday: Fog, drizzle, & wind. Bah!
I hear ya! I am waiting for at least sweater weather.
Doesn't look like it's coming soon.
Wow talk about extremes! What wacky weather! nm

Putting cold weather to good use.
This morning I made home-made chicken stock in my pressure cooker. It's now been strained and is sitting on the back steps in a metal pot. It's only 18 degrees outside, so it shouldn't take long for the fat to come to the top and solidify, which is something I usually have to do overnight in the fridge. I should be having some nice soup for dinner or late afternoon snack today!
We have very changeable weather, lots of extremes.
It can be blazing hot and humid in the summer, and well below freezing in the winter. I'm also a backpacker and am very used to hiking and sleeping in the winter woods, down on the ground with snow all around. I love that, but I'm always prepared for it. At home, I keep the thermostat at 62 during the daytime when I'm home alone. I wear fleece pants and wool sweaters and vests, and I'm usually comfortable. It's 18 outside today, but my heater hasn't come on once except for the morning wake-up when it automatically goes up to 70 for an hour or so. At 3:00 it'll kick up to 68 until 10:00 p.m., and then we sleep through the night back at 62. I couldn't do that if DH were home during the day. He likes the house much warmer than I do.
My office is next to the kitchen, so I'm keeping the chill down by making soup and baking bread today. I get up for a break, knead the dough, let it rise. It's about ready to bake now. Yum!
I'm enjoying this, but I'm sure glad it won't last here for more than a few days.... I hope.
Stay warm!
Normal wear for warm weather is
cutoffs and a T shirt, cold is sweats OR my flannel PJs.
You have fresh peas, too, in that cool northern weather of yours? :) nm

I'm starting to hate this southern weather, seriously. It was in the 90s this week. I don't kn
keep my tanks out. The other night I went to bed in sweats and woke up drenched in sweat. EGAD!!
I used to live in Upstate NY/VT and I miss those winters something terrible. Don't go on and on and on about how lucky I have it, because believe me, I MISS THOSE WEATHERS!! I owned my own John Deere snowblowers and LOVED every minute of it. I loved being snowed indoors. I loved making snow angels. I loved actually being able to eat soup and not sweat like a hog.
I miss it, miss it, miss it. I'm really beginning to resent my husband who has never left the south. I fell in love with him and we've never left. He won't even go up there to visit. He'd live in the Miami keys if it weren't for me. I haven't seen snow in 10 years! Please, someone send some my way.................
South AL is where I live - look up Orange Beach..
Schools have people across the county monitoring weather sm
to assess delays and closings. If there was legitimate fog, the school would be aware of it.
If it wasn't excused, it likely was A) not significant enough to cause any major delay or B) nonexistent.
Think, people.
What part of country, mild, cold weather or?
Do not remember seeing what part of the country you live in. Florida as compared to Michigan, I think makes some difference.
The weather has been HORRIBLE just about everywhere his Winter!!! Mother Nature Angry! :-(.....nm

We eat out mostly at the local pub.
We're lucky to have a real neighborhood Irish pub, and we like to meet up with friends there, listen to music, have a beer and a sandwich. It probably costs us about $30 for two of us. Since we're nearly empty-nesters, it's just DH and I who go out. Big, fancy dinners are usually just for birthdays or anniversaries.
When we're just too tired to cook, then it's "fend for yourself night" . My sons know how to cook. DH not so much. But he can make a sandwich, and there's usually something leftover that he can make. My youngest son is a good cook, and if I ask him he'll usually make dinner for all of us when I'm just too tired to bother.
Also, a Crockpot is a marvelous thing! I love it. A little planning and effort, and dinner is in the pot cooking all day and ready for dinner time.
Do you have a local library?
Cheaper to check them out and return after writing great recipes. Just a thought.... 
The local car lot commercials
One in particular where the guy is huge and obnoxious and shouts his way through the whole commercial about his cars. Why do they have to shout??? 
local webcams
These are all so very neat! Thanks. How do I find my own town webcam? Thanks.

You're right - this sure is addicting! Ha! How fun! Here are a couple I have found that are fairly close to me.

I sent my sister a note in a bottle - hope she finds it.
I went to a local store
called Fred's Beds and caught our Simmons on sale. I think the set was only $900. I was thrilled.
Contact your local ACO....
Call your local animal control officer, or if you don't know the contact info for them, the police should. It's their job to calmly address the situation. It's not fair to you to listen to this poor animal all day long. I would also mention that you fear for not only the animals safety, but also your own. I'm sure it is on record anyway from the prior incident but wouldn't hurt to bring it up again. I would definitely not approach the people one-on-one, especially given their past behavior.
I'm sorry you're going through this. 
how about a donation to your local
animal shelter or the HSUS in her name.
the last few times I was in our local
all the people working the windows were pushing the 'forever' stamps, telling everyone about the rate increase coming and you should buy some now before it goes up again. One postal worker even told one of the customers if she lost the stamps for 5 years and then found them she'd be able to use em.
Personally, we snail mail so few things in our house these days that when I bought 3 books I figured they will probably last us about 5 years.
Local veterinarians...sm
Ask your local vet offices if they have a bulletin board for flyers. And maybe pet grooming places?
we had a local company that came out to
maybe you just had a bad customer service rep?
I'm 4' 11" and our local Captain D's has taken to
dispenser nailed to the wall above the drink counter. I can't ever reach it. It's a minor inconvienece for me but what about people in a wheelchair?? I refuse to patronize that particular restaraunt and have written a complaint to the company but of course nobody cares.
Local library? (sm)
I actually used to be a book junkie, but since the economic times have gotten so...interesting, and they charge an arm and a leg just for a paperback these days, I have started checking stuff out from the library. I almost won't buy a book these days. Just is not worth it to pay those prices.
Anyhow, off my soapbox. If you have a library nearby they should have most of the books. Charlaine Harris is the author, and she has several other series, as well.

ask your local pharmacist. where I am it was
over the counter RID. but there is probably something new by now - that was 15 yrs ago.
You need to find out from your local
law enforcement if there is a leash law there where you live. If there is a leash law you could get the owner of that dog in trouble.
Is he local to your area?
I've never been in this situation, but if he's newly widowed, perhaps a casserole and a card would be more practical for him than a plant or flowers?
If he's not in your immediate area, maybe you could send him some type of food/snack basket.
I don't know why I keep thinking in the direction of food. I guess I assume being newly widowed and apparently elderly, he might not be in a suitable frame of mind to take care of his nutritional needs. There are so many heartbreaking stories of an elderly spouse passing, and the one left behind simply stops taking care of their own needs and pass shortly thereafter.
I'm not good at dealing with situations involving death, so maybe my suggestions totally suck and someone will have some better advice.
I hope your niece is holding up okay.
Look in your local telephone book..

Well, because the company that has me on file is local, all I can do is sm
forward you to this legitimate website http://www.volition.com/mysteryUSA1.html
You will have to do a lot of legwork and contact the BBB, but it's worth it. Some are national, some are local. I am in south GA. So unless you are local, I can only forward you to this website. Good luck!
Well I complained to newspapers, local TV
station, Fox Network and told them they had lost one viewer even for events such as the Super Bowl if they had no more morals than that. I wrote the publishing company so if a lot of people did that, perhaps it had some bearing, but I suspect there is more to it than just public outcry against the network and publisher.
Is there a local park with tables to have it at?

Local news stations
often have a person who gets on the side of a consumer with a problem. Funny how putting the company on the news gets them to resolve issues quickly.
If you try to handle it yourself by taking stuff, the law won't be on your side no matter what.
