Whee....finally Friday! Yes, I do believe the god, Thor, is set to make some noise here in TN tonight; big thunderstorms in the forecast. Have a safe and happy day!

Then rejoice that the Odinson will display his mastery over the storm for you Sister. He is the Protector of Midgard so he will bring you no harm.

Today is Frigga's Day, the last day of the work week, so indeed a time for celebration! On to the weekend!

Thank You, Browncoat1....we had much lightening and thunder last night and it looks like a day-long rain today which should make all my new plantings very happy. I do like a rainy day for reading and napping and I've been working hard enough to 'earn' one! Happy Saturday.

SISTER

Monday, April 29, 2013 1:01 PM

Big Suck. At least the rain has 'paused' for now.

BROWNCOAT1

Monday, April 29, 2013 2:53 PM

Rain here today and cool. Garden needs the rain so I will forego complaining about not being able to ride today.

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Stunningly beautiful morning...still too wet to do much in the garden; but at least it's a 'spring' this year! Happy day everyone!

SISTER

Beltane! Make it a good one.

SISTER

Thursday, May 2, 2013 12:55 PM

We're looking at a Friday Eve, troops! Now, here in TN it's supposed to rain all weekend...but that's okay...lots to do inside the house. Loving this cool spring weather.

BROWNCOAT1

Thursday, May 2, 2013 1:18 PM

Happy Thor's Day troops! Never too soon to celebrate the upcoming weekend!

Friday, in all it's glory. Looks like it's gonna be another wet weekend in TN; but that's okay...no alarm clocks, Iron Man 3...Game of Thrones...I can handle that.

SISTER

Saturday, May 4, 2013 2:00 PM

Yep...thinking about building an ark. I guess 'April Showers' are a month late this year.

SISTER

Sunday, May 5, 2013 3:14 PM

A cool and cloudy Cinco de Mayo here in TN; at least the rain stopped for a bit.

NVGHOSTRIDER

Monday, May 6, 2013 7:51 AM

Can't rain all the time

SISTER

Monday, May 6, 2013 1:43 PM

You're RIGHT, Nvghostrider!! Finally stopped...front field is a lake, side yard a river, but the sun is out.

BROWNCOAT1

Monday, May 6, 2013 5:44 PM

Supposed to rain the next couple of days here, so no saddle time at least the first half the week.

Had a good weekend. Bachelor party for a friend Friday night. Wedding and reception Saturday. Relaxed Sunday. No one got arrested. I call it a win.

I think that Tennessee was somehow transported to Seattle this week, not that that's a bad thing. I just need a few sunny, dry days to get my gardens done! Happy Hump day Eve.

SISTER

Wednesday, May 8, 2013 12:31 PM

We're humped

SISTER

Thursday, May 9, 2013 5:31 PM

Good weather means I'm outdoors working on the yard/gardens...just battling a second delivery of 100 bags of mulch! Happy Friday Eve!

SISTER

Friday, May 10, 2013 1:16 PM

Well, it's raining again; but it's FRIDAY so I'll take that as a win!

You must be getting what they are forecasting for us tomorrow afternoon. Sunny, warm, and a bit humid here today. Still makes for great riding weather!

Happy Frigga's Day all!

Well, it's big suck; but I got so much done this weekend...I'm still happy about that.

SISTER

Tuesday, May 14, 2013 12:49 PM

I would love it if this weather continued for another month! nice, cool mornings; getting lots of outdoor work done and I'll bet that Browncoat1 has been putting in lots of seat time!

I have this week. Rained a good portion of last week. Nice and cool at night and in the mornings so I can keep the AC off at home. Ride back and forth to work so I can enjoy some two wheeled wind therapy. Supposed to get pretty hot Thursday if the forecast is to be believed. Should crack 90 degrees. They are calling for thunderstorms here Friday and Saturday, so I figure you are looking at rain Thursday and Friday Sister.

Looking forward to D*C coming up in a few months. Seems like it is almost here again! Most likely only make it down for Friday night, the parade Saturday, hit the dealer rooms, and pull out of ATL Saturday evening.

Ah, I envy you...would LOVE to get to D*C; unfortunately budget is busted by need to replace entire house heating and cooling systems. However, I am glad you're getting some knees in the breeze! The weather here in TN is also heating up; so I'm doing a lot outside in the mornings; tonight it's the new Star Trek movie at the drive-in!!
Have a good day, all!

BROWNCOAT1

Wednesday, May 15, 2013 1:24 PM

Ugh. Sorry to hear about the HVAC problems Sister. Not a cheap fix. Hope you have it squared away in time for the summer heat.

SISTER

Friday, May 17, 2013 12:42 PM

FRIDAY. Looks like we'll be getting some rain. But it's FRIDAY so I don't care!

BROWNCOAT1

Friday, May 17, 2013 12:58 PM

Calling for rain today and all weekend, but I don't care so long as I don't have to be at work. Helluva long week. Ugh.

Wife gets back tonight so I count it as a win.

Bye-bye Big Suck, hello hump-day eve.

BROWNCOAT1

Tuesday, May 21, 2013 1:43 PM

Ugh. Rain every day for the past 6 days. Not constant, but enough to keep it wet and too unpredictable to ride. Can't wait for dry weather. Ready to have sunny, warm days to be in the saddle.

Got my veggie garden going yesterday...despite a brief thunderstorm; feeling pretty good about it, too!

BROWNCOAT1

Wednesday, May 22, 2013 5:05 PM

Good news on the veggie garden. The wife type started ours a few weeks ago. Growing pretty well with all the rain we've had of late. Hot today, but might get some rain later this afternoon. Said screw it and decided to chance it by riding anyway.

Anyone have big plans for the Memorial Day weekend?

Props for the "Crow" quote!

Had a good weekend. Kind of quiet with the kids gone, but gave the wife type and I time to relax, get a few things done around the homestead and spend some time together.

Hope everyone had a good Memorial Day and took a moment to thank those that sacrificed all for us to enjoy our freedom.

Short work week makes the All Father's Day all that much better. Weather is nice, riding the bike every day, and the crap storm at work finally seems to be settling.

Hope you all have a fantastic day today. Skol!

Had the same issue. Seems to have been sporadic problems of late. Hopefully they are behind us.

Frigga's Day! Friday to the non Pagan. Took it's sweet time getting here despite being a short week. Beautiful weather. Wife has a yard sale planned tomorrow. Should be an interesting weekend. LOL

Big rains here; nothing like the midwest, of course. Means I don't have to water the garden.

Normally we'd call this Big Suck...but just for today, how about 'June the Turd"?

I'm okay with it.

Hot this weekend. Humid hot, like Atlanta at D*C time. Heck of a weekend for a yard sale, but we held it any way. Had to clear out some stuff to organize and get some coin. Good amount of the remaining items went to the Pet Refuge as a donation for their yard sale next weekend.

Hope everyone has a great week!

BROWNCOAT1

Tuesday, June 4, 2013 1:01 PM

Tyr's Day! Big Suck in the rear view.

Rained last night making it cool enough for a jacket on the bike this morning. Any day in the saddle is a good day though.

Rain into torrential rains in North Carolina Friday when traveling. Rained pretty hard here yesterday and last night, but sunny and humid now. Should have a couple of days I can ride prior to the storms moving in Thursday.

Thursday, June 13, 2013 1:36 PM

To quote the Wicked Witch, 'I'm melting'...100 degrees...humidity....ugh. At least it's Friday Eve and I do have A/c.

BROWNCOAT1

Thursday, June 13, 2013 2:53 PM

Hot and humid the last couple of days. Supposed to hit 95 today and we are bracing for this storm the news and weather folks have been hyping like Chicken Little for the last 48 hours. Hopefully it will blow over.

Glad to hear the AC is working Sister. Here's to hoping you stay cool all summer long.

I'm hoping the storms skipped you, Browncoat1; we had a 25 second downpour that did little but add to the humid factor. At least it's better today...and it's a FRIDAY! Hoping to see 'Man of Steel' this weekend.

BROWNCOAT1

Friday, June 14, 2013 1:42 PM

Storm hit hard, but not as bad as some so called "experts" were calling for. We did get pretty high winds, gusting up to 50 mph, some heavy rain for about 45 minutes, then it just faded to light showers for another couple of hours. It did drive up the humidity, but it broke the heat as we are only supposed to get up to low 80s today.

Three days of rain, it was supposed to be clear today, and SURPRISE 40% chance of afternoon thunderstorms! Can the rain please stop? I feel like I have moved to Seattle or something.

Hope everyone is having a good week!

And did it ever suck. Power went out in our building @ 11am due to a blown transformer. 93 degrees, high humidity, sun beating on the building, no windows that opened, 1,200 employees, and an employer that wouldn't close if it were the zombie apocalypse made for one hot, crappy day.

Luckily they got power restored last night so things are better today. It is Post Big Suck so it should be downhill from here, right?
