You know you're from the South when there's a chance for an inch of snow and they close everything!!

I know. Just wanted to let you know I was rolling with the Maxine video. Several years ago I purchased a calendar that was of Maxine. Maxine tells the facts in a comedic way. Laughter does the body so well;)I remember the snows from the late '70s and ''80s.! I hate driving in the stuff, but the black ice worries me the most especially with my children in the vehicle.

I got a country ham bone and will make some this week. Soak the beans first in baking soda to remove some of the wonder. You know why they stink? It is so that deaf people can enjoy them too. LOL

They must still be working on the internet and phone. Barely have the net and no phone at all.

Hello, folks. Had a very busy weekend .....sleeping. LOL. All that talk of ham hocks, hambone and beans has made me hungry. I can't have that stuff in the house because I wouldn't stop eating until it was gone, and with it, my fledgling diet. Hope everyone is well. I've got to catch up on the posts, will be back later.

Woke up at 11 pm with the phone working again and no one to call. LOL

Heck, you can call me if you want. LOL I do get a little bit stranger as the night wears on. Occasionally, I will get a call from one of my insomniac friends who knows my schedule. I never sleep through a night, haven't for the last several years. I just doze/sleep lightly, wake up and do something, then go back to bed for another night nap. When I was young, I could sleep like the dead, but as I get a little older (mind you, I didn't say old), sleep eludes me. Perhaps in my waning years, I try try to get in as much waking time as possible, because I know my years are growing short. Who knows. Sometimes, I believe that I do my best thinking in the deepest part of the night, just before the roosters crow to announce impending dawn.

Computer is very slow. Will try to post later.

Hazardous weather outlook issued for Louisville, snow possible by mid week

Two storm systems are expected to move through Louisville starting Monday which could bring as much as two inches of snow by Wednesday, the National Weather Service said.

The weather service issued a hazardous weather outlook Sunday for south-central Indiana and central Kentucky warning that the first storm system will likely hit the area late Monday with a mixture of rain and sleet. The high Monday is forecast to be about 43 degrees.

The second storm system will move through Louisville Tuesday night and will be accompanied by much colder air, the weather service said. Light to moderate snow is forecast with accumulations of between one and two inches by Wednesday morning.

The remainder of the week is expected to be clear with highs moving from the mid 40s Thursday to the low 60s by Saturday.

Those beans and hamhocks sound good. Might just plan on having some navy beans, hamhocks, iron skillet cornbread, and green onions. Maybe a chili day. Glad I don't really have to go anywhere if I don't want to. Usually on those days...I don't want to. lol

Seen the China earthquake in the news:

SW China Quake Destroys 700 Homes, Injures 30
A moderate earthquake struck southwest China on Sunday, causing hundreds of homes to collapse and injuring at least 30 people.

The earthquake bureau in Yunnan province, where the quake occurred, said three of the injured people were in serious condition.

The official Xinhua News Agency said the quake damaged 2,500 houses and caused 700 others to collapse.

About 55,000 people were affected by the quake, Xinhua said, citing Yunnan's Civil Affairs Department. Supplies were on their way to the quake-hit area, including 6,000 tents.

The magnitude-5.5 quake struck 51 kilometers (32 miles) from the city of Dali at a depth of 33 kilometers (20 miles), according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

About 34 aftershocks were recorded after the quake, Xinhua said.

That bad wreck made national news south of Elizabethtown (in betty's neck of the woods) and then the stories keep coming. Sad that family died when hit by the semi. I hope Blue, betty's hubby and any other truckers we know weren't involved or held up by that wreck. Wonder if that is where betty was saying is too curvy and if it is where they have had many wrecks.

Breaking: Country music star Kellie Pickler's drummer involved in serious I-65 accident

Breaking Entertainment News: The411withSherleneShanklin: I have been working on this story all morning long and now I can confirm that the drummer for country music star Kellie Pickler was involved in a serious accident in Kentucky.

The crash happened Saturday morning around 11:30 a.m. on the southbound side of Interstate 65 approximately three miles south of Glendale, KY.

Drummer Gregg Lohman was involved in a four vehicle crash injuring three people. I spoke with University of Louisville Hospital spokesman David McArthur and he confirms that they have a Gregg Lohman in their hospital and he's in serious condition. They could not confirm anything else with me at this time. We have been working with our sister station in Nashville and they have received confirmation from a close friend of Lohman that he was involved in the crash.

Lohman's accident is not the only accident that happened in that area on Saturday. Police say six members from Wisconsin family were killed and two injured when their SUV was rear-ended by a tractor-trailer. According to police, the first accident happened shortly after 11 A.M. Saturday morning in the northbound lanes of I-65 at the 83 mile marker. Police say the Wisconsin family in the SUV was from Marion, Wisconsin. They are identified as 62-year-old James Gollnow and his wife Barbara, 92-year-old Marion Champnise, 18-year-old Sarina Gollnow, 8-year-old Soledad Smith and 10-year-old Gabriel Zumiga. According to police, Soledad and Gabriel were foster children. The two survivors were also foster children. Police identified them as Hope Hoth, 15, and Aidian Ejnik, 12.

SKY11 was overhead both accidents Saturday. Click here for images.

Kentucky State Police Trooper Norman Chaffins says despite snow flurries, weather was not a factor in either crash. The driver of the tractor-trailer was not injured and was cooperating with police, Chaffins said. He was not identified. "He's obviously pretty torn up about everything," he said.

The southbound crash involved a tractor-trailer and three other vehicles and Chaffins said police were investigating whether rubbernecking was the cause.

I sleep really good for 4 hours, then wake up and drink coffee and do things for a couple hours then sleep a couple more hours and it does not matter whether it is night or day. Good thing I am retired and have no schedules to keep.
