You might be lucky. I don't think the worst of the winds will arrive until later in the day tomorrow.

The aches are prolly due to the change in pressure as the 'Storm' approaches ....

Morning all.
its bright blue clear skies and the sun is out, light new dusting of snow overnight but nothing that is gonna stop us if we want to go out.
Certainly a lot less so far this year than previous and the wood shed is looking remarkable full for this time of year.

Morning all.
Not a bad looking day for the one before the big winds.
Apparently, today I am to paint a section of wall recently uncovered since the fencing was done and a large trellis was removed.
Such fun. But first Coffee & Breakfast.

Diverted to the MIL's to replace her broken washing line.
Apparently her own actual son doesn't rise to such challenges.
Shame the tethered end is inside a large flipping bramble-bush.
All done though and the old crone is happy, and so is the wife.
My hands are ripped to pieces, despite the gauntlets.
I swear that stuff "reaches out" to snag you.
