Welcome Aboard

We would like to welcome you to Cathy and Chuck's blog. We try to make at least twice monthly entries but sometimes get lax and neglect our blog. BUT we try to make up for it with hopefully interesting and informative articles. Happy Reading

About Us

My photo
I'm Cathy, a 67 year old retired Navy wife. Spent 24 years as a Navy wife until my husband retired after 27 years of service. We traveled all over from Washington D.C., to Puerto Rico, St. Croix, St. Maartin, Martinique, Japan and Korea. We re-located to this beautiful state of TN from Central FL. We live in the mountains on 5 acres with our 10 cats (5 indoor). I'm Chuck, the Other Half of the equation. I'm a 68 y/o sailor at heart. While in the Navy I was a Cryptologic Tech (Intel type). My most memorable tours of duty were in Submarines (Scorpion, Skipjack, Triton & Ray), as Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Deputy Director National Security Agency (RADM C.F. Clark), and my last tour as Operations Chief at NSGA Homestead, Fl during Hurricane Andrew. It was a good time to retire. We have been looking for this home since 1965 and thank the good Lord that we're finally here.

SNOW

We are having some unusually cold and snowy weather. Its suppose to snow the next 3 days and we are going to have below 0 degree temps! Brrrrr! I hope it clears by Saturday as we have to drive the kids back to FL. We may have to leave sooner. Hoping tomorrow won't be bad. Just have to keep checking the weather. The grandaughters have to be back to school on Monday! They have exams to make up.

We took the oldest daughter to the airport yesterday to fly back to FL. Hopefully, she had a good time. Thats a 2 hour drive to Nashville. It was snowing when we left our house at 9:30 am and then the closer we got to Nashville, the snow stopped and it was sun shiney. We had left early just in case. She had to be there 1 and 1/2 hours before flight time. SHe got off ok and called us when she arrived in Tampa. On the way home we stopped in Cookeville youngest daughter and I got our hair cut. Then it was off to Penneys to exchange some Christmas gifts. They had some good clearance sales with 70% off! Then it was off to Sams club for our monthly shopping and then home. We got a couple of pizza's at Sams and oldest grandaughter had the oven preheated by the time we got home in 20 minutes we had the first pizza cooked. And enough left over for lunch today.

Well not alot going on. Will be housebound the next couple of days since temps are suppose to drop to zero. Its only 15 degrees now!
