I’m so glad that “Pit Bulls and Parolees” is back once again on The Animal Planet Channel. I wish that I had known about the show two years ago when it first came on, but I did see all of last years. There are a lot of re runs on that I’ve managed to see and I’ve been waiting for tonight’s episode to come on, so I’m off to Reality Show Land for the evening and keeping an eye on the weather channel as well. We are expecting a huge snow storm, but we will see how it turns out tomorrow.
First Snow of the Winter
I appreciate the guest post, Jamie Guy
While most people enjoy the warm summer months, which provide many outdoor recreational opportunities, I personally enjoy the winter months and am always very excited for the first snow of the winter. During the winter months, there are many fun activities that can keep people active. With the first snow of winter, I enjoy going to the local and play football with my friends. Playing football in the snow is a lot of fun because falling to the ground or being tackled is not nearly as painful.
Also, I enjoy the first snow of winter because it is a lot of fun for my dog. My dog enjoys playing in the snow and can remain active for hours at a time without being bored or running out energy. While the first snow of winter does create a lot of fun and great memories, it does wear me out after a long period of time. After playing in the snow for a few hours I enjoy going inside and relaxing by the fire while watching my satellite television.
Gift Suggestions
My youngest sister Becky has emailed me desperate for some gift suggestions for our eldest sister (Briannah) who moved away years ago to the great state of Maine. Becky and Briannah didn’t really get a chance to establish much of a relationsip due to the large gap in ages and then living so far apart, so Becky is stuck with trying to figure out what would be a good gift to send to Briannah. So I’ve been spending some time looking around at all the various sites that sell good quality shoe, since Briannah has always been a shoe freak.
I have ordered several items from Zappos.com in the past and have always been very happy with the experiences and the products that I’ve ordered. Cole Haan has always had some awesome shoes, clothing and accessories that I’ve enjoyed and I’m sure that our sister Briannah would appreciate and enjoy their Cole Haan Air Melanie Rain Boots since she is always complaining about the cold and wet weather that she deals with up in Maine. It makes me wonder why she moved to such a cold environment the way she carries on about the cold.
Anway, Zappos offers free shipping both ways and guarantees delivery before Christmas, so I hope that my suggestion will make both of my sisters happy for the up and coming Christmas holiday that will be here before you know it.
Check out these Cole Haan Air Melanie Root Boots, aren’t they awesome looking?

Supercell Thunderstorm Rolls at Sunset
This is a great photo that I ran across on Yahoo that really caught my attention and I wanted to post here. I wouldn’t want to be any where near this storm!

PowWow
I promised my niece that I would take her to a Pow Wow over the weekend, the same one that I took her to last year. It’s a 2 hour drive over several mountains, but worth the time and effort. We left early this year in order to get there nice and early, to get good seats. Took a cooler full of cold drinks, a soft blanket and a tent for shade. We learned our lesson last year and wanted to come prepared this year.
It was a blast, but the temperature was in the high 90’s and we really were very miserable, along with the other several hundred people that attended. It didn’t end until 6:00pm but by 2:30 most people had left due to the heat and we headed out early as well. This heat wave has been horrible. I mean it is only June for heaven’s sake, not mid August!
Next year if the weather isn’t decent we won’t be attending. I’ll be looking for a Pow Wow that is held inside where we will be nice and comfortable in a controlled environment.
OMG
It is very disturbing to keep hearing the reports of all the extreme weather conditions that just seem to keep happening over and over. This morning the news is that a 4.4 earthquake has hit right outside of Los Angeles, California. Will this madness ever end? Who ever pissed off Mother Nature really needs to make an apology and soon.
A Spring Cold
Think I’m coming down with a cold. My mother says it is a “Spring cold” I just know that I’m coughing, my nose is running and I feel like hell. What a way to start the week end. At least it is going to be a rainy weekend so that makes me feel better. I won’t be missing much.
Will It Snow Or Not, That It The Question
On the 25th we were expecting more snow, thank the good lord that we didn’t even see one single snow flake. But now the weatherman is indicating that tomorrow evening we will be slammed with another snow storm. You never know until it happens and I’m not too concerned with it all at this point.
Bring It On
The weather man says that will should be getting 3 to 5 inches of snow by tomorrow. We still have several inches still on the ground from the last snow storm. I’m so done with winter and can’t wait for spring. They say that the groundhog saw his shadow and that means that we have 6 more weeks of winter, arg…….
Just What We Need, More Snow
As if we really needed any more snow. Today we got four more inches of this horrible white stuff that has made our lives such a mess these past few weeks and darned if they are calling for more later on this week as well. I’m so sick of this and I just can’t wait for spring so that we can finally be rid of it all.
I’m sure that there will be plenty of flooded basements and roads washed out when we finally get warm enough weather to start melting all that has accumulated. Not something to look forward to at all.
