Weather Recovery and Raisins

By on January 7th, 2008 in Just Saying ...

It was partly cloudy today, a nice respite from the weekend’s weather. Lots of wind and rain, with much snow in the mountains. No wind damage at my house, although my mother-in-law’s house had a tree slowly lean into it, causing a bit of damage to the roof overhang, but not into the house. Bent the railing on the deck, but it could have been worse.

Found out that a nephew living in Fernley NV dodged a bullet when the irrigation canal broke, flooding a large subdivision. The flood waters stopped only one house away from them. They were able to help others in the neighborhood. Flood insurance is not something you would think you would need in Nevada.

Spent a bit of time trying to move a database from one SQL server to another. It’s rather large, so did a SQL backup to a local file. The next step is to try to copy the backup file to the other server. Using a mapped drive didn’t work, so will be trying a remote desktop connection tomorrow.

And at home, I am enjoying the oatmeal raisin cookies my wife made for me yesterday. They are my favorite, and healthy, AFAIK.
