Postal carriers 02/17/2021

            I have a quotation I would like to present to you during this wonderfully cool and snowy weather, "Neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet, nor hail shall keep the postmen from their appointed rounds"! do you have any idea what that means, or better yet, whom it is in reference too. It refers to the mail man and mail woman!

            We haven't seen ours for two days now, although I do not blame them. Getting out and driving when you don't have to is not a good idea. Maybe they need to take the snow, sleet, and hail out of the saying.

            Suggestion, "Rain shall not keep the post person from their appointed rounds, unless it is very heavy, then they can stay home and still get paid."

            Now let us look at photos; this first photo is of some odd-looking snow, on the Ford's ole swing. Each board has its snow piled up, with gaps in between the boards. The second photo shows that everything is larger in Texas. Yes, that icicle is as large as a tree, yep it is cold!

 



           The super large icicle photo is from a security camera, I am not allowed to go outside. 

            Today is Wednesday, February 17, 2021; we had a little freezing rain last night and early this morning, about ¼ inch of new ice. The roads were covered with snow yesterday, but they were drivable, now they have an additional covering of ice, STAY AT HOME DON'T DRIVE!

            We are supposed to get above freezing tomorrow. 😊

            I have not heard much about the virus during this cold period. Someone said when talking about the virus, it can't get much worse. They had not considered this freezing temps and power outages, it is worse! Now a safe distance can also mean, a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you.

Pray that this cold goes away soon!
