Its Sunday already?!?!?

WOW. Where does the weekend go? Its Sunday already and I will have to go back to work tomorrow. ugh. Yesterday, I spent most of the day on the couch. I did get out of jammies to go to dinner with my parents. But was right back in them once home again!

Today, I had to go to the store, Son seems to want to eat when he comes home from his dads. grumble. The weather here seems to be getting better and actually, I am surprised that these Nor'easters haven't been worse. Here is a picture I took at High Tide today:

These are the steps leading to the beach (we have beach at low tide). We have had white caps out there all weekend.

Here is a shot of the fury of the River. This is a picture taken by my step mother on a different day. Its a bit blurry because the window she was taking it through was covered in River Spray.



We don't worry about the river over-flowing its banks. My parents have lived here for 7 years and have only been flooded once and that was from the meadow behind our house. Seen here:

Again, this is an old picture, we didn't have any flooding this weekend from the storms.

I hope your weekend has been a safe, warm and dry one! I still have time to color my hair and get a nap in before Son comes home! Yay me!

  1. Woa! That's some serious looking weather! High and dry and safe and sound here in Michigan. We live in a condo on a lake, but no white caps or flooding.

  2. Where I live we have a stream to the North, and a river to the South, both are prone to flooding! So it gets a bit hectic around here at times, especially since I keep horses and they often need to be brought up to higher ground in the middle of the night!
    The week-end really is not long enough!

  4. Hi AMY!
    Thanks for commenting on Kansas Mediocrity!
    I like you spot, wish it was on wordpress, but then again that's just what I like.
    Your format is easier to comment on than many 'blogspots'.
    Jersey?
    I've been there once.
    Spent a week touring the NYC area.
    Wow, so many people. I guess I like small town Kansas.
    I'm glad I toured though. The WTC site and 'Strawberry Fields" both brought a chill and a tear to this old man!

  5. What a beautiful location for your home. It must be nice to be right on the river like that, even though storms and weather can cause challenges/ Good luck!
