The official Status update thread #227. Lets see what 2022 has in store for us

[Jaybird1980]

Have you been outside yet? I can't even walk out the door....the entire sidewalk and driveway are a sheet of ice. Hubby hates salt on the sidewalk because it eats up the concrete. He saw me sprinkling it and about had a cow. I told him it was either the sidewalk or huge medical bills when I fall and break my neck. I'll go out in a bit and see I can get the ice to scrape up and get it all off of there.

Really. Mine just has ice where it puddles and where it was before.

The cat slid the entire length of the sidewalk this morning from the house to the garage and then about wiped out going through the cat door into the garage. She was not impressed.

I have the "concrete safe ice melt" but he doesn't believe there is such a thing.

I'm picturing my Amazon delivery if it comes tomorrow...the UPS truck may not be able to stop until it hits a building if they come flying up the drive like they normally do.

Oooh, that would not be good.

The semi's for across the street have been sliding by the drive, since the road is still covered in ice.

I am surprised. Just let the boys try a little bit of the beans and they liked them!

I had the HF version. It was loud as a fighter jet.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Howdy ancjr!

Oh yeah, the bigger they're the louder they're.

Wait till they get that cornbread.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Wait till they get that cornbread.

Hopefully they'll like it. They saw me putting the jalapenos in it, but I don't know if they'll remember. It isn't really spicy though. And with the brown sugar it's a little sweet so they might like it.

I've been doing that at our driveway for the past week. When I got home yesterday, I almost missed the garage door opening.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Mmmm... good beans. Bryson didn't like the cornbread but Brydon ate his I think.

Howdy all I've been out and about with no issues.

CKW took the daughter and 15 year old out for a girl's day of shopping and Dairy Queen and LaHacienda for lunch.
Glad the roads are clear.

The roads are fine, but I'm glad to be home.
