Ended up getting slight frostbite and windburn on my face and neck from blowing snow Monday night....kids don't have school today due to the extreme windchill factor....-9* right now with a windchill of -35*

 

Got to find a face mask today so I can break up some drifts tonight

 

I've been taking advantage of the time off work

 

You need to be careful!

Watching the weather for Thursday night/Friday morning. If it looks as if the roads will ice over will head back to Burleson Thursday eve.

 

The boy starts his college courses offered through the high school next week.....the idiot forgot to tell us about the books he needs...my wife is pissed

 

Our little 6lbs of pure energy

 

Termites complaining because I went to get some firewood left from last year. It may get down to freezing tonight! In the 50's now but temp is dropping and it's windy.

 

Never got above zero today

 

Ahhh -- books were the ultimate "racket" when I was in college! Write the check at the bookstore for $50.00 over the amount and pocket the cash -- along with the new university sweatshirt you added to the order! Then at the end of the semester you sold the books back (never telling mom and dad) and pocketed that cash as well!

Working the whole "book game" kept me in beer money for the better part of the semester.....

 

 

 

16 this morning but at least the 20 mph wind has died down.

 

Alls I can say is I wish the Internet was what it is now when I was back in school

His books list average price was around $525 from the book store.... This is factoring in new, used, rentals

Did a lot of Internet searching and got his book list for $310 plus didn't have to pay state sales tax....

So I think I did pretty good

 

26 right now with a wind chill of 16...and I'm about 50 miles from the Gulf.
