The Anchorage, Part 3

[Dreamer]

Morning all. Looks like we are in for a wild day here, its just about pitch black with thunder and lightning. Not a lot of wind right now and the rain is steady rather than heavy

 

[Miss B]

Sounds like a good day to stay inside.

 

[Dreamer]

yeah except that today is one of the days I have to be out

 

[Miss B]

Yuck!

 

[Dreamer]

Not so bad now, I no longer need lights on inside and the rain has stopped

 

[Terre]

So you can get your errands run without getting drenched now?

 

[Dreamer]

Lol no I had to do those this morning, all that's left to do is pick my boy up from school. Still I managed to avoid getting drenched

 

[Terre]

Good.

 

[Lorraine]

Good morning! Well, actually, rubbish morning! But forecast to clear as like Dreamer yesterday I'm to go out into it, booted, coated, hatted and with raindrops trickling down my neck...oh joy, I will live on a boat! There's an hour to go and I'm still in bed, loathe to leave the warm. But it's time to arise and face the day if I'm not to be flustered and flurried and late

 

[Terre]

I hope all goes well and not too uncomfortably Lorraine.

 

[Lorraine]

Hey there folks!

Had a brilliant day yesterday. The rain stopped just before I left the boat, I spent the afternoon with a dear friend, AND she cut my hair! So a catch-up and no longer looking like Shrek the Sheep...so many wins!

 

[Terre]

Sounds great.

 

[Miss B]

Hey Lorraine, good to see you here more often.

According to one of the calendars we have a new proverb has popped up in England :
Three phrases that sum up Christmas are: Peace on Earth, Goodwill to Men. and Batteries not Included

 

[Miss B]

Hmmmm, I always thought the third one applied all year 'round.

Goodmorning to you all! We have snow, well, just a teeny, tiny layer of it that has melted away almost allready. But still enough to declare code yellow
We're better with water when it's liquid I gues. It's the silliest thing. Storm blazing the land,...it's a bit windy. Rain pouring like it's a curtain you can't see through,...it's trickling a bit.
A millimeter of snow, code yellow

 

[Terre]

Almost that be here. LOL
An inch of snow means school opening delays.

 

[Lorraine]

After morning all! It's HOT down here...not Aussie hot nor California hot but NZ hot, 24C which is real warm for us. It's 'find the fans' warm and 'threaten to go for midnight swims' warm. It's 'so much sunshine I don't need a generator to run my computer' warm and 'sit in front of said computer all day cos the sun's shining' warm. I think summer has arrived. And my new genset sits on the back deck unneeded, while I sit in front of the computer having a swell time! Long may it last, it's helping the planet and saving me money at the same time

 

[Terre]

Good to see you, Lorraine.
