Mrs.J

Doing quite well. How are you doing? Not quite ready for the snow here. But it is getting close to that time.

Just took the trash out and it is snowing!

In between the light flickers got this pizza made.

The wind just kicked up big time, and the lights are flickering. And rain is coming in too.

Just spent the last half hour building a turtle platform. The younger Miss J has a 9" long Red Eared slider, got it from a friend who no longer could take care of it. Anyways she is a big turtle and her current set up was not working for baskin. Got a piece of plexi made some cuts, drilled some holes and she added some river rocks for traction. She is installing it now. Our house is a darn zoo!

I have the Davis Vantage Vue but it is an older model. There was someone on here that got a new one recently that is everything contained in a cylinder housing. Forget what the name of it was. And I know the area you are in. I used to drive that stretch of road over from MD to get to Round Hill, VA until we moved my daughters pony south of Lovettesville.

So Mr. J was unable to find chicken legs at our local Co-op when doing shopping last week. And he forgot to move them to another stores list, so no chicken legs that I needed for dinner. But wait! The Recipe queen has pulled a fast one and came up with a substitute. He did get a couple packs of Boneless skinless thighs as they were a managers special and were being sold half off. I had just thrown them in the freezer to use at sometime. Also have an extra pack of bacon on hand and some chicken scratch... so came up with bacon wrapped chicken thighs for dinner tonight. It's like pantry raider meets the freezer! Stay tuned for my ad lib meal.

Who wants COOKIES!!!!

So far 2.16” since yesterday

1.76" over here in Frederick. We have been getting dumped on for the past 30 min.

Found a new ramen recipe.

Doing good. Had a mental health break out there. Lucked out with fantastic weather for late October. Love your photos above!

Last night on Chincoteague for a much needed mental health break. Rented a house on the Bay on the Northern end of the island. Have enjoyed some nice warm weather. Some beautiful sunsets and skies on fire. Finished off the week with a brought in shellfish feast of which there was nothing left.

Out vacationing on Chincoteague this week. Thanks to online schooling we can do a get away in October. And renting a house to stay distanced. After the fog burned off around noon turned into a an absolutely beautiful day for October 20th. Headed out to the beach around 3. Never thought it would be near 70 on Assateague. The Miss J's were wading in the ocean and we took a nice long walk up the beach. Thought we were going to get a nice sunset but the marine layer rolled on in. We are on the bay side up the neck.

So I am late to the game and have never done this before. But besides my love of cooking I also have a piece of paper that says I can charge more for my art. The youngest Miss J asked me to do Inktober with her this year. First day prompt was Fish.

Sun back out over here. 78/76 it really did not cool off at all after all the rain. Currently sitting at .46".

I can say my area while currently under rain missed out on the super big stuff.

81/76 here with thunder. My area seems to be in a dry slot for now. Opened the back door and OMG so muggy.

That Tornado warned storm is to my East. Storm coming over from VA to my west is warned.

It would be nice to get at least a decent storm. Would help me justify the stabbing eye ball pain I had all day yesterday from pressure in my head.

Had a quick passing shower sun starting to come back now.

Completely covered in thick clouds over here now. No sun coming through.

77/74 here with sun powering through the cloud deck. Tropical feeling out.

Had a cell go up to my north came through here with blowing rain and some thunder and lightning. Got .22" in about 5 min as it moved out pretty quick to my south.

Yep it is. Dry over here all day. Still under the watch but really not expecting anything. All to the East today. Will turn on my Thunderstorm Pandora station and fade to sleep.
