Was so bored (or tired--body hasn't adjusted yet) that I fell asleep about 5 this afternoon. Failed open at 1 am, can't get back to sleep.
Just as well, the snow is coming down pretty hard here and I'll have to start blowing it out about 3:30-4 am in order to get to work on time--yes, I get to work today, racist company I work for not recognizing MLK Day. Already at least 5-6 inches on the ground, forecast calling for another 4-6 more by the afternoon.
Coffee will be my friend until 4 this afternoon. After that, who knows?

Another foggy morning with no sunshine predicted. At least we've had several days above freezing and most of the snow is gone.
-
Sun is trying to break through, with a predicted high of 50!
Everyone has the day off here, except for the girl child who has dance at 2:30...her director figured everyone had off from school, what a great time for extra rehearsal time! Of course, she let everyone know last night at 6 about the change in schedule. :hammer:
Not exciting plans today, although since it's warmer, I might take the boys out and play catch...start warming their arms up for baseball season!
-
9 inches so far. Another 4-6 predicted.
-
Foggy this morning. Foggy, foggy, foggy. At least its warm.
Didn't sleep for shit... damn noisy neighbors.

Today we are supposed to be upper 60's, and then tomorrow low 70's, and then rain and colder at the end of the week. I just know this isn't the last of the winter, and I hate this up and down, because it confuses the plants, and gets my equilibrium out of whack. And here I was getting ready for winter.
Oh yeah. Geaux Saints!
-
50's today and sunshine! Finally...
-
I have to go, yet again, to the VFW. The cleanup crew for the minor flooding we had will be there, as well as the estimator. In the interim, "The Invaders", an old 60s sci-fi show is on the SyFy channel...... :) I hope that the SyFy channel continues this trend.

I doubt it. SyFy likes to come up with original yet crappy progamming.
Be willing to bet you'll see "Avatar the series" by September.
Am I the only one who thinks that movie is just a supped up version of the smurfs?

It an analogy of how the Imperialist American Dogs treat other countries. :whatever:

True, but reruns from the 60s are cool. I was just talking about that a couple of weeks ago. Lost in Space, The Invaders, etc. How many times can one watch SG1, SG Atlantis, etc without burning out on them (I like both of those shows, immensely) They could sure lose those stupid assed Ghost Hunters and the like.

I've never seen these ****in "hunters" ever catch a ghost. That show is more fiction than science.
I like the old scifi shows but SyFy goes back and forth between them, their lousy original progamming, and reruns of Seaquest.

Going to be in the uppper 50's today, the sun has finally burned off the wicked fog we had this morning.
I'm dragging the other half with me to the projects....on MLK Day....to do an interior shoot. He's thrilled. :uhsure:
Meeting up with another client to get some paperwork done for extending her listings....tough to get occupied rentals sold - even when the prices are low - in "difficult" areas of town.
Looking out from my office window at the horse farm that's up beyond the road behind us....their grass has greened up in the last few days. All the rain Saturday, yesterday and last night...plus the warmer temperatures will be enough to mess with the plants. Since it's going to be "warm" all week....the temps will probably bring up the daffodils...so they can bloom and show their happy sunny heads...and get sleet/snow/ice on them... :bawl:

I'm bummed I missed BSG: The Plan when it was on this month and it's not on Comcast On Demand. Hopefully, SyFy will rerun it . . .
Cloudy today but it's supposed to hit 50. Traffic light due to the holiday; husband and son home together today -- hope there's no blood spilled! Lately the 2 of them have been butting heads non-stop!

If you're on broadband, I found a couple of places that you can watch "BSG, The Plan" from online for free.

It's in the mid-30s here now, and there was 2" or so of new, wet snow this morning. Most of it is melting. But, I just saw on FNC a blurb about the storms hitting California now. 6" of rain. In the Sierra Nevadas, at least 24"+ of snow. That'll be here by the end of the week.
-
6" of rain in the Left Coast - any threats of mudslides yet?
-
Happy Day Dr. King!!!!

I think the first season of Sanctuary was better, but I still like it.

Back from the interior shoot.....a block off MLK Blvd and 2 blocks from Magnolia.... :uhsure:
House was interesting...besides the fact that it was falling apart.
First floor had a LR, DR, kitchen, eating area, a gutted bath - not even a floor just the joists, 2 other rooms. One of the rooms had some religious bulletins and prayers tacked onto the wall. Both the extra rooms had new brushed stainless doorknobs....without locks.
Second floor had a bath, 3 brs, an extra room off of one bedroom, and stairs to the 3rd floor in one br. Each room had the new doorknobs like downstairs again without locks.
Third floor.....fake stone walls, mirrorred tiles all along one sloped ceiling, a fake stone bar, and a sink in a fake stone bench and shag carpet. :o :o :o
After hours bar and hooker rooms? :clueless:
I didn't go into the basement, just kind of angled the camera down and clicked.
I love my job.... :lmao:

Oh deb I bet you do!!!! A hundred years ago (Ahem) I used to work for a mortgage servicing company. I had to process all of the inspection reports along with photos. We did all of the REO's and foreclosures. Man, what a hoot! The things you find in houses......one guy was so pissed about his foreclosure that he gutted the house down to the studs and then put a chainlink fence all the way around it about 6ins from the brick. And all I can say is that people are freaks! And nasty. EWWWW the pictures I've seen!!

Yeah.....nasty just doesn't cover it sometimes.
This one had been trashed out already.
I had one years ago with beer bottles.....and used condoms.....all over the place.
I don't clean them up....thank God.

Yeah, the guys who went out to the properties used to gross us girls in the office out!!!

I go in jeans, t-shirt or sweatshirt, and either sneakers or thick-soled flipflops.
I have been known to take my clothes off in the garage and take them straight to the washing machine....just in case any little "critters" jumped on them....
I carry a large container of Purell and paper towels in the car, too....

Why not just wear a hazmat suit.

It was a beautiful Monday in Denton. Spent the long weekend with my girlfriend, got a new tattoo today and now I'm getting ready for school to start tomorrow.

I have been in some that I wish I had one!
You would not believe how some people live....or what some will do to a house they are leaving.

Hey Deb. You might not want to wear flip flops. But, then again, you might not be as clumsy as I am either. Flip Flops are just not an option for me when the safety of my feet is a concern.

I am a prize-winning klutz....really sad. Family and friends make fun of me, because I am just getting worse as I get older. Runnin' Buddy told me at Walmart the other day when I pulled a case of pop down cock-eyed onto my bicep that I was a hazard to myself. No..the top box on the stack was about a foot and a half above my head!!
Anymore, M always goes with me to do interiors....I don't ever do them by myself anymore as other agents have found squatters in houses, there may be animals - I did one that I know had snakes, :o and some are just not structurally sound.
He's gripes at me every time I wear them, but sometimes....I just have to spray them with 409 and wash off. I have a pair of thick-soled Kenneth Cole's that I've had for at least 5 years (I love them!) that I usually wear. The bottoms are flat, and the insoles are molded...so I can walk in them for a long time. I don't wear the flipflops I get at Walmart.
