Good Morning CGs!

Hump day and I'm ready for the week to be over already....haha. Well, the snow didn't really let up until the middle of the night it looks like. Checked outside and the driveway/cars are covered again, but the streets have been plowed several times. Hopefully the ride to work won't be too bad, but I'm still leaving extra early just in case.

Well, I've gotta run, gonna try to clean up the driveway a little, take out the trash...blah blah blah.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Matthew

You're up early! The plow came last night, but I think I can barrel through it. If my son doesn't handle the shoveling chores, I'll deal with it later. It'll be nice to have a couple of short weeks after this one.

I haven't seen snow accumulate in east NC since early '01 nope. The winters are just as cold tho'; maybe it's too cold for snow. Where is Gore huh?

Does it seem like the GW rage is over? I bet I know what them frozen sea turtles think about it uh huh... Sure don't hear much about anymore...

Good Morning Gurus!

Still cold here. We don't have snow plows in our glorious little community. So the icy snow pack will be there for many days. Not usually below freezing for more than a day or two in my neck of the woods. So I am totally sick of seeing white stuff.

My last TV commercial shoot as a company man is today. I will attempt to edit it later today, and tear down my edit bay this afternoon. All the equipment goes home tonight. Then on Thursday, I disassemble my edit desk. It is the size of a small car, and nearly as heavy.

Fun times!

Enjoy your day everyone!

A very sad day here. I just finished burying our 11 year old border collie. No sign of any problems, in fact she was doing fine and playful as a puppy. Last night about 11 she suddenly collapsed and died. I was at work so my wife had the paramedics (fire station is only 1 mile away) come out, but there was nothing to be done for her. We are guessing a massive heart attack.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about your border collie! At least it sounds like she didn't suffer.

I know how tough that is, and especially at this time of year.

Thanks guys. She was indeed a great pet and friend. It was just so totally unexpected, but she did not suffer.
