ok, I'll complain for you Bubbles. we had the freezing rain and light snow which of course practically shut the city of Houston down. We froze for two days but like you, it is sunny and in the 60's today. They did a decent job of sanding the roads but still, there were many accidents, mostly pick-up trucks and 4 wheelers who think they are invincible in this kind of weather. And pile ups of course. The airport was shut down for 2-1/2 hrs because someone forgot to sand the exit roads. Cars piled up and clogged the roads. They sent out two guys with 5 gallon buckets of sand to fix it. Fortunately, I missed the fun and games by an hour.

My outdoor plant covers got rain soaked then froze into rock-hard tents. I'm afraid to look underneath! But I am so happy to report that the greenhouse and garage plants stayed warm and will be able to fill on the void outside while everything else grows up again. This worry is killing me! I think I'll find a cave and hibernate! Grumbling
