He does not even do internet, and hates his new Android phone (too complicated for him).

Lol just got spectrum back again. Up down, up down. I'm not laughing at accidents, but rather instructions in case I leave home. I'm looking forward to local news, if spectrum can stay up long enough. Started baking chocolate chip cookies. Happen to have one pkg at home. Thinking better bake them now while I got power. I'll wish later I had. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a great deli (Marco’s) up on Maple Road that made the best muffulettas. That is one thing I miss about going up there. He only stayed there a few years before moving to the warmer climate in California. I grew up very near there, by the intersection of Klein and Hopkins. I went to school at Maple East Elementary, about a mile down the road from Marco’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We picked Valentine's Day because our relatives were coming from Texas and NJ. It was also President Lincoln's birthday so it gave them a 3 day weekend. I also always wanted either rubies or emerals in my wedding ring. My birthstone is diamond and Mike's is ruby. So the red and white theme went along with the date. A few pictures. Not the best quality taking a picture of an old photo with my phone. Here is my handsome hubby. A very nice looking couple 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems someone at the dfw control tower has to physically climb down with a wooden ruler and measure the snow. Are you kidding me lol. Last time was 7 or 8 pm, 10 degrees, and 25 mph, and they hadnt had a reading from dfw since. Looks like a couple of inches, maybe 4 or 5? Hope your power comes back on soon! That is the worst when you loss heat (worst than losing AC IMO). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All garage doors have to have an emergency release, there is a pull cord hanging, it is typically red or orange. Pull that cord and it disengages the automatic track. You can then pull the door up manually. Once you have power back, you just have to push the door back until you feel it reengage, you can do it! just like if you ever get locked in the trunk of your car, they have a safety release too (at least some cars do). For years I use to joke about trying it out, then one day I did when I was a bit buzzed on wine. requires you to trust your partner won't leave you there if it doesn't work. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems my gas furnace doesnt run without electricity. Brrrrr. My hands are freezing. I packed up crack of dawn to drive to my parents, forgetting my garage door is electric. Trapped like a rat. Just now can get the garage door open. It's a balmy 10 degrees outside. I need some florida. Gas furnaces can't work without electricity as it is needed to run circulators or blowers depending on your system as well as power vents. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
