According to all sources [NWS, local news etc] there is going to be a snow storm here tomorrow on Sunday, with snow down to 4000'. Oh goody. I get to drive my super bouncy 4x4 again. Of course, it could be worse. I could have NO truck and be stuck. So, I bounce up and down my dirt road in the snow and mud most of the winter.
When friends ask, "Are you going to be here 'such and such". I answer, "God willing, and the creek don't rise", and I'm NOT kidding.
Pray that God keeps me and my 'fur babies' safe till the weather clears for the season.
Thank you. God bless all.

Will, my friend and helper, came to bingo with me. He was lucky and won a game. Which is great, he only comes once a month or so. Way to go, Will.
I, on the other hand, only got close or "on" [1 away] practically every game. Getting on is like a cardiovascular workout. Your heart just pounds, thinking, "I got it, I'm gonna win".
After bingo, Will and I went to church. We had a wonderful visit with friends. We were able to take communion. The service was fascinating. We had so much to talk about, we stayed afterwards chatting with the Pastor for 2-1/2 hours!
Then, I had to stop on the way home to switch from my car to my truck. Goody. It has been raining and snowing. With the promise of more. I really hate getting stuck on the mountain in my car, with my 4x4 down the hill. So, I would rather have my truck up here and not need it, than to have my car up here and get 2 ft. of snow.
Will, Kati [my Service Dog] and I, bounced up the hill in my truck with overload springs. Picture springs that are way too tight. No spring effect.
We all made it home with our joints still in place and all of our teeth. lol.

Today I went to the Seniors center to play bingo [supports Meals on Wheels]. I didn't win, but my friends did. I had a lot of fun. I got "on" [1 away] almost every game, and some games I was on up to 7 times! Really thought I had it a couple times, but that's what makes it fun.
Kati, my service dog, was finally able to come with me. She was stuck at home for 3 weeks, because of the snow. The ride in my 4x4 pick-up is REALLY rough, and it makes her very sore. She is after all 11 years old. She was soooo excited to go, and everyone was happy to see her.
I was able to go to church today, yeah! It was a very good service and it was good to see my friends there.
The snow and ice is gone. The rain melted it, so I was able to bring my car home. I keep it at 3000', at a friends house 3 miles down the hill from me. In the winter, I keep either my car or my 4x4 pick-up at their house. I switch off as needed. It's kinda funny. In bad weather, I drive the truck down to my car- switch, then switch on the way home. It does get old, so I'm happy to have my car home and not need to switch for now.
