Thoughts While ShavingWinter arrives tomorrow (Wednesday, December 21st) according to the calendar … Forecast indicates a small chance of rain today, after 4 p.m. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 48, windy and a 20% chance of rain. Tonight, a 50% chance of rain after 3 a.m. Wednesday, rain likely, mainly before 7 a.m. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 47, windy with gusts as high as 17 mph and a 60% chance of rain. No chance to clean up our yard … at least I have an excuse. High temp Friday, near 60 and windy. Low Friday night near 21 … brrrr cold and more of the same thru Christmas Day … Plan accordingly.

34 degrees at 5 a.m. today … Bundle up and go shopping…

Don’t know about you, but I may need to check vehicles to make sure they are safe … Not sure when the forecast has been for so much cold, windy weather for our area … Santa may need some heat in his sleigh … and a warm beverage…

Monday night football score … Green Bay Packers 24, LA Rams 12. Last year’s NFL champ eliminated, Packers’ win keeps their playoff hopes alive.

Larrell Murchison was on the Rams ‘inactive’ list. The Elizabethtown native was claimed on waivers about a week ago. He was cut from the Titans team a week or so ago.

I am thankful for a warm place to live … Remember some places we lived as share-croppers … a single trash heater, heated by wood, all the house … and 3 grown, or near grown males in one regular size bed … I am among men most richly blessed … Many neighbors were dealing with the same type situation … Not complaining, thankful … Check on your neighbors, just make sure all is well.
