When I got up this morning, the first thing I did was look outside. I wasn't sure what I'd see, but it was just raining and the walks just looked wet. Around 11:00am it changed. Ice started forming on the limbs and power lines.  By 12:30pm we had a 10th of an inch of ice.  As the temperature went up this afternoon to 38° it changed over to just rain. One good thing about the rain … we don't have to shovel it out of the way.

After I heard the local weather advisory, I sent a text message to my 2 daughters that work in town to let them know what was going on outside and of course Mommy had to remind them to be very careful driving home.  Lisa answered back to remind me they were at the funeral. Her husband's sister passed away last Friday.

My husband teases me but I'm not ashamed of the fact that I'm a fan of The Young and the Restless.  I saw the very first episode in 1973 while I was a stay-at-home mother of 3 yr old twins. I remember I had put them down for a nap and turned on the TV. I watched the news then this new program came on. I watched it and I've been watching ever since. This is their 40th anniversary! Oh my!

For supper I fixed a hamburger-rice casserole and some baby peas. Hubby likes it. I'd rather have had a salad but no lettuce in the house. 

Headline News:

"Department of Homeland Security has started releasing hundreds of illegal immigrants held in local jails;  blaming the Administration's automatic budget cuts.  A spokesman for one county sheriff in Arizona told Fox News that ICE officials have plans to release a total of nearly 10,000 illegal immigrants."

This sequester is all just a ploy to try to get us to think it's because we have less money than before. We don't. Obama's administration is just spending that much more! 

Well, going to call it a night. Hope you had a good day.

Take care.

God bless
