Mornin all, leaving around noon today for the horse show, weather looks good for the drive.

[OffshoreRescue]

An inch doesnt scare me :rofl:


How's about 6 of em sound?

[Racegirl3]

8 is enough (:eek::D) and Im pretty sure we have more than that :ack2:

I called on of my girls and said I'll come to work if somebody wants to come get me..... or if my uncle shows up .. whichever comes first :sifone:


I think the weather guy got confused between the inch and the foot signs. Pretty sure we have a foot or so :leaving:

[Scarab KV]

Morn'n all. 7 above and I don't think we dropped below 0 lastnight...must be global warming.
Looks like you guys East of us are hav'n a blast....of snow that is. :biggrinjester:

Sorry I just can resist getting my diggs in

[DonziGirl]

We've actually been hit pretty hard with snow. Normally we don't get that much. Got about 5 inches yesterday. I had to be in Dayton for work and that sucked. An hour drive took me about 2. Overnight we got a lot of freezing rain and sleet and now snow. So we have a thick layer of ice topped with snow. My boss emailed us all and told us not to bother coming into work but to work from home.

I'm hoping none of my clients are at work either :D

5 inches? In Wisconsin we just use a broom for that kind of dusting, we don't get out the shovels until it's double digits:biggrinjester:

[ChiefApache]

Hi everyone, been gone for a while, my bad. Seems like everyone is doin well!

Are you guys in OH getting the snow yet? We are supposed to get a decent amount overnight then all day tomorrow.

Went skiing with a girl Sunday, 1st time for me in 15 years, I was impressed, I picked up right where I left off and did really well. Girl is coming off a bad relationship I guess and not ready for anything serious yet. That's cool with me, I'm in no hurry. Just thought you'd all like to know:drool5:

We're at 10" and counting....the radar shows we're due for several more inches before this stops.

Took me 2 hours to go 21 miles this morning. :boxing_smiley:

We're at Holiday Valley next weekend....come on over!

[DonziGirl]

Cincy isn't used to a lot of snow. Things pretty much shut down here with that much snow.

Chief - I'm hoping a lot of my northern clients didn't make it into work today :D

[ChiefApache]

Its the boots .... :p

At first I thought I read it's the boobs :_boobies::smilielol5::boobflash:.....ok, somebody had to say it!

[Cookee]

Hi Cooke good to hear from you, Skiing in France sounds wonderful, were the conditions good. How is the temperature in England, you probably gathered from reading some of the threads here that the States are have a record cold and ice year.

So are you having a big wedding.

We had 3 days and the weather on Sunday was blue skies and powder - fantastic!

England is cold and damp, we have had frost for the first time in 10 years where I live!

100 people for the wedding and a lot of disappointed people, but you can't invite everybody!

[ChiefApache]

I guarantee you it took them "hours" to get to work today.....really bad out there.

[Cookee]

Hey cookee ... I have a passport and Im not afraid to use it :D Wish I could crash your wedding.... hehe actually ... Id love to come watch you race.... that would be pretty cool too!



Hi Dawn - are you feeling better yet? I think I have sold the race boat to a guy in Greece, the deposit should get into my account in the next couple of days! May go for a classic boat - they did a Sunseeker Tomahawk (37') which I would like to race next in the longer distance racing that is becoming popular over here.

Crash the wedding? I'm sure I could find you a place if you turned up! XX

[Scarab KV]

Maybe if you get up before 10, you would know it was -2 on the way to work:biggrinjester:

It's these southern temps. Shouldn't you be digg'n horse doo doo or something in prep for the trip? :biggrinjester:

[Ms PatriYacht]

we had about an inch or so last night but it is still snowing now, we must have 15" total on the lawn, several of the neighbors have snow so high it's almost covering their mailboxes, I doubt we will see our lawn until mid March. I am really bumbed, our two large evergreens that flank our front door have so much snow packed and ice packed around them that branches are breaking. Yesterday I discovered large branches bent way over with huge mounds of ice weighing them down. With these temps and the amount of ice, there is no way that would melt on it's own for probably a month. I got some buckets of warm water melted most of the ice on the larger branches but that might have hurt them also. The problem is we have tons of icicles hanging down over them and they keep breaking off and piling up in the bushes, now that I realize what is happening I will keep knocking them down and try to move them away from the trees. My office is on the second floor and the roof line where the icicles are forming is right below the window where my desk is. The noise the icicles make when they fall is really loud and quite startling, both Kirby and I jump up each time a group of them go crashing down. We have never had this many icicles before. Someone said they form if your gutters have not been cleaned and our were not, we still had lots of leaves left on the trees when we got our first snowfall. I think a lot of people are going to lose expensive landscaping trees and shrubs this winter, to replace the evergreens by my front door will be at least $300.00 a piece. I am more fed up with this freezing weather and constant snow than I ever have been. I keep asking myself when I was younger and was getting transferred around how come I let them send me to MI, I mostly likely could have gone somewhere else. Now I am stuck here for who knows how long, with Ian at GM and not being able to sell our house, I am doomed.

Stop pouring water on the trees, though. This year you would have had icicles clean gutter or no. I think that we have about the same total ice snow mix out there... my bushes and trees are taking a beating. We haven't seen pavement in a long time.

[Racegirl3]

Hey Cookee - I feel great.... dont sound so good .. kinda have that deep raspy thing going on ....

We all made it into work ... rearranged all the closings for today so we'll be heading home early. My plumber guy called to see if my uncle had plowed my drive yet ... since he hasnt, my plumber is going to take his snow blower over and play. I told him he didnt have to ... guess he wants to. Said he needs the excuse to get out of his house and away from his woman (my ex mother in law) :D

County is at a level 2 now.. Just talked to one of our customers whose in Denver. He called us wimps. I said noooooo ... its just a good excuse to go home .....no arguing with that :sifone:

[Scarab KV]

.. kinda have that deep raspy thing going on :sifone:

Puurrrrrr :D

[Ms PatriYacht]

I was calling and calling our office in Louisville, no answer I finally got one of the owners on her cell phone, she said they have had an extremely bad ice storm and no one could get anywhere so the office is shut down.

Barb where is that ski hill you are going to.

[Racegirl3]

Courthouses are closed, banks are closing at 2 .... so ... so are we :D I had said we'd close at 1 and at 12:59 the sun came out and it stopped snowing :boxing_smiley: Its started up again so we're leaving. Its blowin like a sum***** :eek:

Holiday Valley is in Ellicottville NY. They have over 4 feet of snow up there.

Hell ya! Angie is doing her best to talk me into rescheduling our Vegas trip that we didnt do last year. She has to use her ticket before March 27 :D You know I talk big but if somebody dropped $4000 in my bank account Id pay bills .... well .... ok .. Id probably still do a Vegas trip but it would be a really really cheap Vegas trip .... and then Id pay bills :biggrinjester:

[fund razor]

If somebody dropped 4 grand in my bank account, the boat would eat it.

[Racegirl3]

Howdy - Had an interesting journey coming to work today. They have the alley plowed just wide enough for the cars to get thru but then when you get to where the alley and the street intersect, the piles of snow make it nearly impossible to turn into the street so I stayed in the alley for 4 blocks til it ended and I had to turn :D Made it but Im not sure if I'll make it back. Hopefully they will have removed some of the snow before lunch .... or ... I'll start in the alley at the other end then its only a block to my house :sifone:

[Scarab KV]

Morn'n all. We're in the teens today and the sun doesn't set until 5:02. Things are look'n up :D

Hey Cookee - I feel great.... dont sound so good .. kinda have that deep raspy thing going on ....



Mmmmmmmmmmm!

Does anyone know Winter Park? Coming over on the 15th February with some disabled kids from England and just wondered if anyone knew the place as I haven't been before. I will probably be a bit busy, but we may get to sneak off if there is something worth doing apart from skiing of course!

Been 15 years since I skied Winter Park last. I'm sure a lot has changed. We use to do all three...Winter Park, Mary Jane and Vesquez. When we weren't skiing we were clubbing....don't think that's gonna be on your agenda though. Unless that's what ya meant by sneak'n away:sifone:

[DonziGirl]

Roads here were still bad. it took me about 2 hours to get into work this morning. The city ought to be ashamed of themselves for the snow removal

[Racegirl3]

Speaking of clubbing ...... I love my friends:kiss: Angie just sent me an email.... She booked me a flight to Vegas :eek: I'll pay her back but it may be in installments :D Now the rest of the girls want to go too! How much fun would that be!!! I've never been to Vegas .... plans include: drinking, dancing, gambling, and crashing a wedding :sifone:

Anybody else freezing their a$$ off? Just walked the dogs with a turtle neck sweater, hooded sweatshirt and winter coat and frooze! Damn it cold:(

[JJ Apache]

I didn't gamble in vegas (house wins), but I did in San Diego (well on a reservation anyways) and played nickle slots for an hour and came out with $95. Started with $20. Still waiting for my PENNIES to grow up.

Yep, but you'll have to wait till next week:)

[Racegirl3]

My daughter thought about being a vegetarian but when I only cooked one meal (eat it or dont) she decided she'd rather eat what I cooked than cook her own :D


Got to the office this morning to find half ... ok more like a 1/3 .. of the floor soaked. We have huge windows in the front and side and the seal around the top of one of the windows is leaking. Already made arrangements to have it fixed and have a steam cleaner on the way to soak up the water. Happy Friday :D Suns out :sifone:

[Ms PatriYacht]

morning, another day in paradise:( more snow, tomorrow night one of my friends is having a tobogganing party, we have a place near hear called the Fridge where they have built special hills with tracks. Then we all go back to her house for chili. Should be fun. I am thinking about going cross country skiing on Sunday it will be our first day above freezing in almost a month, so I might as well get out and enjoy the warmth:rolleyes:



Cooke Winter Park is in the heart of Summit county, there are a ton of ski resorts within 30 miles. Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Copper, Keystone, A Basin. I have skied most of those places, but I have not skied Winter Park, a few years ago I was at Breckenridge and one of my friends left to meet some family at WP, she is a good skier and said she really like the mountain, so you should be able to get some skiing in right there. I will be in Utah when you are in CO. I am assuming you will be a ski guide for the kids, what type of handicaps do they mostly have. I am always amazed by the blind skiers, it has to take some guts and trust in your guide to ski when you can not see.

Speaking about being blind, last night at the gym a guy that I have seen there for years came in with a cane and I asked him if he had knee or hip replacement surgery, he said no I am now blind. He said he had a brain tumor about a year ago and something went wrong during his surgery and he became blind. So sad how life can just change so quickly.

[Ms PatriYacht]

so what's on everyones agenda for the weekend.

[CROWN MAN]

Morning all, Well My son has been doing some dirt bike racing. Last Monday he went to motor x school. I think created a monster.

[CROWN MAN]

Listen to the teach:26:

[CROWN MAN]

Time to do some work, to pay for all this.

Anyone need laser engraved name badges ?????????

[Scarab KV]

Use to love skiing that area, all though Vail was a little too Hollywood for me. WP is really nice. Last time out we took the series of three lifts all the way to the top and worked it hard comming down...took 27 minutes. Sure miss that kind of skiing. Lori isn't a winter activity person, so haven't been out in a few years. :(

Come to think of it, I was up when you posted this morn'n. Fell asleep in the recliner last night, woke up at 3:30 and went to bed.:biggrinjester:

Kind of nice to sleep normal hours since I came off the road. A lot of the distrbutors that I delivered to had middle of the night hours. Would have a 2 or 3am drop at one, drive across town and crawl back in bed for a couple hours for a 6 or 7. Lot of broken up sleep.

What happens in Vegas...stays in Vegas!

Ah yes!!!

I'm heading to Vegas tomorrow AM for a long Superbowl weekend.

Leave 8AM, arrive 11AM. Fly back Tuesday 12PM, get home 8PM (time zone thing) and staying at the Imperial Palace (middle of town but not the Wynn).

All for $398 including tax, transfers, etc!! Economy is the chitter sure makes weekends fun!

$100 for McFaddan's all you can drink/eat for the game is a bargain as well. Last year couldn't touch the place without "bottle service" starting around $300 a person without food.

Have fun Mark, this will be one of the first years in a long time that no one I know is having a party, but that's OK I don't really watch the game anyway, in fact I don't even know who is playing.

Sunday looks like it could turn out to be a fun day, x county in the middle of the day and a chick flick with a friend in the late afternoon, she wanted me to come by for some wine first and I suggested we just bring it to the movies, she couldn't believe it. I always smuggle a cocktail or two into the movies, does anyone else do that?? I feel like I am single, every Saturday, Sunday and most evenings Ian is in the garage working on something. I can't remember if I told you that he has been rebuilding air compressors, phase converters and other stuff like that, he sells it on Craig's list or ebay. I am not sure if we are making any money because everyday UPS delivers something else to the house. I am glad he is industrious but it gets kind of boring with him always in the garage.

Sunday looks like it could turn out to be a fun day, x county in the middle of the day and a chick flick with a friend in the late afternoon, she wanted me to come by for some wine first and I suggested we just bring it to the movies, she couldn't believe it. I always smuggle a cocktail or two into the movies, does anyone else do that?? I feel like I am single, every Saturday, Sunday and most evenings Ian is in the garage working on something. I can't remember if I told you that he has been rebuilding air compressors, phase converters and other stuff like that, he sells it on Craig's list or ebay. I am not sure if we are making any money because everyday UPS delivers something else to the house. I am glad he is industrious but it gets kind of boring with him always in the garage.
Anything and everything my purse will hold.

[JJ Apache]

OMG! Looking at my news stations W S, and breaking news said cops were dispatched to a Jr. high for a stabbing!!!! One child off in ambulance. News at 5:00..........

[Scarab KV]

4 days in New Orleans in Oct was less than $400 w/non-stop round trip & a Holiday Inn 1 street off the middle of Bourbon Street.

:biggrinjester:

You could offer to send me to New Orleans for free and still wouldn't go. I don't get the attraction.

Have fun in Vegas. I was suppose to be there Mon-Thu for a tradeshow but cancelled due to other priorities at work. Not a problem with that....I get to Vegas 2 to 3 times a year on business as it is.

[ChiefApache]

Not a lot going on this weekend and happy about that. Brought some work home that I need to do, catch up on my DVR shows, and just take it easy.

[Racegirl3]

The son mentioned to his grandma last weekend that he needed new pants so she gave me money yesterday and said take him shopping. I said you can take him shopping and she gave me 10 reasons why she couldnt :rolleyes: So ... looks like Im takin the boy over to Mansfield today. Ye ha. Its 2 degrees out ...

Morn'n all. Gonna be a balmy 35 today. Two days in a row over freezing.:)

[Racegirl3]

Looks like you got up a few hours after I went to bed :D It was a hair after 4 when I finally went to bed last night..... not that I accomplished anything in staying up :rolleyes:

So I think I might have to shovel my roof today :D The roof over the back of the house has about a foot of snow on top of it.... just doesnt seem like its a good thing. Normally, we get snow and it melts before we get more snow. This is the first year in a long time that the snow has kept piling up without melting away inbetween. Temps are supposed to drop again next week and I keep hearing rumors about another big storm..... Not sure my roof can hold another foot of snow:eek: Preventive maintenance:sifone:

We're into that magical 5th year of a start up and the numbers are up dramaticly with the new location, which is good. Far from what we were use to when I was still on the road though.

Crawled back in the window and laid down on the kids bed ... my head was pounding ... guess that means the blood pressure was a bit up huh :eek: Son said it was Gods way of reminding me Im old :ack2::leaving:

[Racegirl3]

Sooooo cleaned off the rest of the back of the house roof ... and discovered I have a new issue :rolleyes: The downspout on the main roof is so full of ice that its starting to come down... AND it doesnt go anywhere.... not because of the ice but because there is NO spouting leading DOWN :ack2: It just ends on the side roof .... thats flat .... so the water just lays there. I wonder if there was a piece to it at some point and it blew off or something. Anyway .... I'll add that to my list of things to do :leaving:

AT&T changed something with our e-mails this last summer, so if someone sent alot of pictures the system would time out and resent all the emails over again which would cause it to time out again which would send all the emails over again..... so I could get 3-400 emails daily of which 20 were resent 15 times. They say we change something, which we didn't, later they found the problem on their end.

it's the OPA race awards dinner, seems like a big group gonna be there.

Last night I went to see Spamalot, it was the touring company for the Broadway play.
It was a Monty Python spoff on the Holy Grail, it was pretty good. Richard Chamberlin (aka Dr Kildare) played the lead, he is 75!! he still looked and sounded pretty good. A friend of mine had free tickets and she could not go, of course Ian did not want to leave the garage, so I took one of my girfriends and we had a nice time. Our seats were awesome only about 12 rows from the front and close to the middle. Free tickets are great, these shows are selling for over $100.00, no way the show was worth that.

I knew Adam and Beth we're going. Have we met you?

Scott & Sonya had talked about it, but don't know for certain if they're going or not, haven't talked about it lately.

Roger & Steph are going, I think McConnell's going too last we knew.

Hotels are great but I highly recommend staying at a condo in Truman Annex. Its walkin distance to everything and since its still off season, they arent too expensive. You can get big ones and small ones depending on how many people you want to share with :D

Yup its the OPA awards deal and my team, Cleveland Construction, won the high points championship. Granted, I didnt make it to many races but they still include me :biggrinjester:

Donzi ... Im not sure how long it will take. My guy called me last night after I had left and I have a call into him today so ... fingers crossed. It would be so cool to get this done. I'd close it tomorrow if Flagstar says I can :sifone:

Every tree in Kentucky is broken from the ice storm, just entering Tennesse

[Racegirl3]

OMG.... My guy just called and he said .. you arent gonna believe this. He called to tell me he needed the contract scanned in emailed to him and then as soon as he has the attorney's fees from the attorney, he can submit it to Fannie Mae but you know how attorneys are so who knows how long it will take. Anyway, while he was listening to my message, he got the email from the attorney with the info he needed from him so he can submit everything to Fannie Mae now and I should have an answer this afternoon!!

Holy cow! Its approved!!!!:sifone:

[DonziGirl]

Woo hoo!!! That's great news Dawn! Time to celebrate :)

Cooke Winter Park is in the heart of Summit county, there are a ton of ski resorts within 30 miles. Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Copper, Keystone, A Basin. I have skied most of those places, but I have not skied Winter Park, a few years ago I was at Breckenridge and one of my friends left to meet some family at WP, she is a good skier and said she really like the mountain, so you should be able to get some skiing in right there. I will be in Utah when you are in CO. I am assuming you will be a ski guide for the kids, what type of handicaps do they mostly have. I am always amazed by the blind skiers, it has to take some guts and trust in your guide to ski when you can not see.



Thanks for that - we are really just minders for the kids, Winter Park is the US centre for disabled skiing so they have great professional instructors who are trained for it - my kid (the one I'm looking after) has only one leg and some internal problems, but he plays basketball and is very athletic so holding him back will be the problem!

Looking forward to it!

Chevy transverse V-6 by any chance?

[dwtinc]

GM anything had intake leaks

[Racegirl3]

Oh ya ... I know. I researched it all 5 years ago when we changed it back then. It wasnt that hard to do and didnt take that long but since I know longer have a garage ... well ... that will make it more interesting anyway:ack2:

How bad is it leaking? If its just a seep I wouldn't worry much about it.

[Scarab KV]

Congrats on the house Dawn:D

No spots on the driveway yet :D It will be a while before I can do anything away but I'll probably call my buddy who just did my brakes and let him do it at his house. I'll see if he will let me help tho :sifone:

[HiZ]

Wheew, congrats

[fund razor]

Sounds very reliefish, Dawn. I have a house that I have been kind of sitting on for years and it is a huge drain. I wish that I had, or could sell it. Even if it was a no-equity cashed deal. Just to walk away.... would be ok at this point. It was a great house and great memories and all that.... but everything changes. You gotta score this as a win in this market. Congrats.

[BBB725]

Yeahaa, Florida, but it's 36

I know. It is. Kinda reminds me of when I got divorced. Its what I want. Its the right thing. But there still is a part thats .... I dont know.... feels like I failed. Huge change... Its been my house since I was 10. Thats when my Grandmother died and I told my dad and uncles that they couldnt sell it cuz it was mine. Told the daughter earlier that its sold. She cried. I cried. Its weird. But its all good. Life changes. Life goes on.

Angie called earlier to tell me she found out today that one of my customers, he's a sweetheart, one of the nicest guys around, his wife tried to kill herself last week. I cant even imagine. They are in their 60s. They were just in the office 2 weeks ago cuz he needed help on some investment paperwork. His wife was acting ... strange ... but I figured she was just having a bad day. I had no idea.....

My selling the house is nothing compared to what he is dealing with... My heart breaks for him:(

[BBB725]

South of Orlando and it's warmed up to 40

[HiZ]

Yeahaa, Florida, but it's 36

[BBB725]

Just got in and it's 46 degrees:(

[fund razor]

[Madpoodle]

[Scarab KV]

Just got in and it's 46 degrees:(

40 degrees warmer then my trip into work.:(
How was the ride down?

[Racegirl3]

-9 here earlier .... its up to -1 now :leaving:

I have had good news today already tho. When I pulled my file yesterday, I noticed that my legal description was marked "conditional, new survey required for next transfer" which means I would have to have my place resurveyed before we can close:eek: So I faxed it to our tax map dept with a note that said HELP - save me and they did. We made a few changes and now they will accept it so no new survey for me :D

[Sea-Dated]

Supposed to be in the upper 60's to mid 70's here for about the next 5 days. Maybe spring is getting closer......

[Scarab KV]

We're gonna see low 40s for the next few days:)

How was the ride down?

Mornin, the trip down was boring and Miki drove twice which really helped with sleep. Wayne did you ever go over to Watoma after that tornado went thru? It was along time ago but all the trees were broken off about 15 feet above the ground that's what Kentucky was like every tree was broken, just incredible.

[BBB725]

We're gonna see low 40s for the next few days:)

It's 8:30 and your posting already?:biggrinjester:
