        Happy New Year, Porch Peeps!

        It's 51 and sunny! Wahoo! After a rainy New Year's Eve, it's nice to see the sun and the bonus warmer temps. Thought I'd take the opportunity to run the pump and get some of the water off the pool cover before it freezes up again.

        Last night was nice. We had our celebration at a friend's and then I took our most "senior" member home after we watched the ball drop on TV. Her daughter had dropped her off.

        It is amazing how quickly the holidays come and go. I'll miss all the bright lights in the neighborhood. I already see my next-door neighbor's tree out for pick up. Mine is artificial and will remain up for a while until I get the urge to start taking it down.

        Cheers for a healthy 2019! N.

          Good morning, Our Front Porchers!

          It's the 2nd of January and I'm still battling a cold and throat problems. But I've been improving slowly and feel well enough to return to work today. Anyway, it's 28 degrees here, but they say it feels like 21.  Furnace has been roaring all night.  So I know it's super cold out.  Plus, although we don't have snow yet, everything is frost covered. Not that I'm complaining at all cuz I'm just glad to see the new year! Hopefully, it'll be a better year for one and all.

           

          I hope that all of the Front Porchers are doing well today and wish each and every one the best in the year ahead!

            It's interesting to see all these pictures of snow.  None available from here.  We are the opposite, setting records for warmth.  Yesterday morning it was a low of 64.  That's our normal high temperature for a January day.  In addition we are having more rain, so it's muggy and feels more like a cool summer day.  I'm grateful that my heating bills will be lower this winter if it continues, but I hope we get some cold weather soon.  Otherwise our peach crops will be damaged.

              23* sleepless nights are a pita, slept with heating pad for minor injury or the upcoming storm for weekend.

               

              Today we warm to 40* and I was beginning to welcome the falling snowpack down to 18” from a high of 30”.

               

              Several cups of freshly brewed later it will be shovel out oil fill, and maybe sleep.

                Good morning, Front Porchers!

                It's 32 degrees, sunny, with no snow.  Yippee! I guess I'll  start my annual countdown to Spring.  Spring begins on March 20th.  So we've got 75 days til SPRING!!!  Not that I'm rushing it, but it's nice to have something to look forward to.   I'm still fighting this cold and so far it's kicked my butt pretty darn good.  Regardless, going to make the best of each day.

                 

                Hope the new year will be the best for all Our Front Porchers!

                  LydiaN586309,

                  Sorry to hear about your cold. Hope you are on the way to a recovery soon. I know I have had pneumonia twice. Just can't seem to get better. 

                  Frozenoem... I hope you got the package, my daughter had to mail it for me. The same daughter, Ashley, who purchased my dogs licenses in the wrong town. I will explain. I live in Shrewsbury Township, Eatontown zip code. Ashley went to Eatontown for the dog licenses. So, the pups will be licensed in 2 towns this year. But, my daughter Ashley tried. Happy national spaghetti Day to all!!!.

                          5* me thinks it’s getting colder, it was 8* when I arose -sheesh.

                           

                          2 feet due by Wednesday-yeesh.

                          I think I need backup wood, for the high winds later🤣.

                            Temp 50. Cloudy with peek-a-boo sun.  Rain expected later.  Snow after that. What a rollercoaster of weather today.  Stay warm and enjoy the day Front Porchers!  Only 71 days til Spring!

                              Well, I tried to take the Monte, the Pitbull to get her nails done today. I had to leave her overnight at my local ASPCA, she required sedation for nail cutting.  But, she will be back here sometime tomorrow. I think she really misses her owner, who was killed in action last week. Hope everyone is doing well and I hope you are safe. Nancy

                                  Morning 34* and snowing, been snowing since Tuesday afternoon.

                                   

                                  Don’t know amount, haven’t shoveled off roof yet. Best guess 2 1/2 feet+.

                                   

                                  My hint the picnic table in back yard was clear before the storms 2 came.

                                   

                                  Need to clean up after coffee, guess what may be coming snow or rain.
