Going to the game! Timing worked out that I was already in NJ for my mom’s bd. #BAONPDX

@RoseHarding I have never heard of an organization that does this but try posting on your local buy nothing or neighborhood group and I'm sure someone would take you up on that.

Looking for 1 Thorns GA ticket for 5/11 to bring my friend’s mom with us to the game. She’s visiting for Mother’s Day. #baonpdx

Ummmm #baonpdx

Trying to finish my taxes and of course Oregon says I have to download my own 1099-G this year and their website is down.

@steeple3k @agilyx I thought I read they are accepting it until 3/24. There is a fb post about it somewhere.

Well, crap. @Agilyx is no longer accepting rigid Styrofoam for recycling. I'd been saving pieces at home for a while, and then pulled a bunch out of the stuff we dropped off at the dump from the Fanladen/Warehouse. Does anyone know where else it can be recycled?

@VannahRain @ymmayer In my experience most dentists just want to get you fixed up and aren’t going to give any grief. But it’s natural to have this worry.

Is it the perfect texture for running? It’s been 10 years since that viral moment in the Portland snow oregonlive.com/trending/2024/…

Props to the people on my block for getting their sidewalks cleared today. our dogs really appreciated being able to go do a walk. We did 3 blocks and ended up walking in the street for the rest of it.

My dog just went out to potty and I saw the trees are very iced up now and winds are picking up so that's great.

My mail carrier delivered mail today for the first time this week. She said if you don't clear your stairs she's not delivering your mail. Glad I spent 20 min this morning clearing the ice from the sidewalks and stairs.

@steeple3k The first time I took my car to the Audi dealer here they exclaimed at all the salt damage. When my bro visited recently he noticed how good all the old cars look.

A big reason to not salt roads is the damage it does to cars. In 1998 I drove my 1980 car to college near Boston. It got more rust in those 3 winters than it had in the previous 18 years. Fuck salt on the roads.

@mikegcoleman After reading that article I did wonder if it was you and checked your account.

I must find him and destroy him.

@steeple3k So far I've only heard one person walk by and it was a man with yaktrax. Ella wanted to know what the h*ck that noise was.

@lorene I might have... I didn't GPS track my walk this morning and don't recall my exact route

There's still a little bit of freezing rain this morning. This is my arm after an hour walking around in my neighborhood. Everything is covered in ice, it would be impossible to get anywhere without traction devices.

Here is your reminder to put your wiper blades up and grind the coffee (if you have a way to make coffee in an outage) before the ice storm. We forgot to grind the coffee last weekend but thankfully I could plug the grinder into the Jackery.

@steeple3k Where is that?

This appears to be what took out power in my neighborhood. 1st photo is a screenshot from Google maps, 2nd I took yesterday.

Time to get busy recharging the Jackery, lights and power banks because there’s another wind warning for the next couple of days.

@ScottyRayJ @steeple3k South side of the golf course has their power back and it went out the same time as ours so hopefully it’s back soon.

Power is out in Roseway....
