Good morning, Vagabonds. I spent yesterday swimming (the pool was colder than usual) and organizing and decluttering my apartment as no one has lived here for 7 months.
Good morning Vagabonds..Well now, there’s a little blue in the sky this AM. (very little).Watched a couple Scrooge movies so far. Think I’ll watch the “A Muppet Christmas Carol” to night..By the way, who plays Scrooge in this movie..Do have fun..ttfn
Mark………….Michael CainMark again……….The day that will live in infamy!
MINUS 20.0 this morning, and a high of minus 7 yesterday!!! Cold wave will break soon!!!
At 6:00 a.m. yesterday morn, in Great Falls, MT (85 miles north of us), it was MINUS 26………at the same time, it was MINUS 20 at the South Pole!!!!!! (although it is summer at the South Pole right now……..)
Mark, we love to watch various “Christmas Carol” movies at this time of year. While they are all the same basic story, the characterizations and screenplays are all so different. My favorite has to be “Scrooge” from 1951. Does anyone remember who played Ebeneezer in that one?I have seen productions starring the aforementioned Michael Caine, Patrick Stewart, George C Scott, Alan Young, Bill Murray and even Susan Lucci.
It is currently 43 at 8:45 AM. It got down below freezing last night, and the forecast is for a bit of snow here today.
Good morning Vagabonds..Still dark and around 20 outside..Jan, another name to add to your list of Scrooges is Jim Carrey, and I noticed you did not mention Alastair Sim who played Scrooge twice, once In a 1951 movie, then in 1971 he was the voice of Scrooge in an animated TV show..Some totally trivial trivia..Several years ago I saw on PBS a reading of “A Christmas Carol” by Martin Sheen and James Earl Jones (bet you can’t guess who read the Scrooge parts).How’s the weather in Texas. ;-)Take it easy David..Have fun everybody..ttfn
Good morning, Vagabonds. My project for this week is to organize my walk-in closet and either get rid of stuff I don’t need or put the stuff I do need but not for a long time in my storage box. I want my walk-in closet to be a walk-in closet again.
Had no snow yesterday, just cold and windy. Today in the 30’s with a storm coming tonight into tomorrow morning. As we live near the coast we are only supposed to get a coating to one inch of snow, then turn to rain. I hope not as my wife has an appointment at 9:30 for a mammogram and a bone density scan. If we’re late, we’re late.
Well……..it’s warming up………only got down to minus 8.1 during the night! I don’t need to tell you, but……it is COLD!!! This is the coldest we’ve had it since we moved here in 2006! Glad it will get up to the 30’s by Wednesday!

Good morning Vagabonds.
Raining this morning with a chance of a coating of snow, then melting.
Be good every one and stay warm this weekend.
