Checking in on my fellow Lemmings 👋

Hope everyone is staying warm and safe out there. I’m planning on doing a grocery store run today but I’m already hearing about mild precipitation and ice patches out there 😕

Guess I’ll play the by ear shortly. Sounds like after today we might all be holed up until Wednesday at least…

Good vibes to everyone out there and stay safe and for the love of everything holy please: ERCOT - HOLD THE LINE

Went on vacation to Norway. Came back to Texas last night. It's currently colder here than it was in the arctic circle last week.

Should’ve brought some of their “warmth” back with you lol

It's cold but fine here in Hurst. Power on, home nice and cozy roads clear.

Good to know about the roads! Stay cozy friend

Things are still looking good up here in Denton. I just got back from taking my dogs for a walk and the only ice I saw was from people who left their sprinklers on. And I'm finally starting to get feeling back in my face.

You brave soul. Currently layering up to venture out soon but the dogs will just have to settle for the backyard until this weather is tolerable. This cold influx has also apparently amped up my dogs potential arthritis- so having to take extra care of her while I monitor.

One of my dogs is half husky, so she absolutely loves this weather. She's been doing zoomies every time I let her out. The old is a GSD, but she's chunky enough that the cold doesn't bother her.

I had a pup who developed bad hips as she got older. Cosequin helped her a lot, but it's more of a daily thing that helps overtime. Hopefully, yours gets through the next few days without pain.

My heating was out from yesterday morning until this afternoon, so that was fun. Broke out ye olde space heater and bundled up. No other problems so far.

Just did a store run in Richardson. Roads are absolutely fine but good grief is it cold! Both stores were well stocked with food thank goodness.

Good in east Dallas. We had a little power flicker which made me nervous but otherwise it’s just so damned cold.
