    Monday January 13th 2025

    tmb, I didn't mean to 'thumb's up" the subject matter of your post, just acknowledging your post. I'm sorry your snowy roof is bailing out of holding the heat in your cabin. The leak in the...

    Just the same as with a car problem, the mechanic looks at it and the car doesn't do what it was doing, to make you notice the problem in the first place. But, BiL fiddled with the taps and said he...

    Today we start the day with a leaking faucet in the upstairs bathroom. I used to be able to get the slow drip shut off by giving the cold water tap an extra push, but this morning that did nothing to...

    I forgot to mention that I discovered why the laptop's battery was low.....I DID plug in on the laptop, but forgot that the main plug had to go into the outlet (I had unplugged it to plug in the...

    I can't say good morning because the big hand and the little hand are both straight up at 12 noon. Nannie was still in bed when I went down to the kitchen to get my "first cup" of coffee. I could use...

    I went out to the mailbox at 9:15 PM, and the cement driveway had the potential to be a little more slippery, but it wasn't a 'scary' walk to the mailbox. But don't you dare step on the grass, because...

    Welp, the report on-line said the Winter weather would get here by 4 PM, and by golly it is 4 PM and now there is a (very) light snow a'fallin'. This is the first snow we've had here in THREE YEARS;...

    Had the laptop plugged in all night, but the battery shows it is down by half. Huh! Guess I'd better plug it back in, pronto! I have to get dressed and run out to the store before Nannie gets up. Hope...

    Here's a surprise.......I sent BiL a text and said Chatty CG was 45 minutes late, and if he was thinking about bringing CG's check over here (which he usually does on Thursday afternoons) to be sure...

    Joe, my plan for 2025 ....🤔? It is simplicity personified: merely to not implode. I don't need to write that down; I just need to grit my teeth and hang on to my watch because it's too late for my...

    SiL brought some supper for us when she came back with Nannie; homemade mixed fresh steamed vegetables and some rib-eye steak that was really quite tough. Maybe you had to be here but it was...

    I did actually get some stuff done: vac'd the den, the kitchen, front hall, stairs to the third level, and half of my room. I HAD TO vacuum the carpet by the bedside because.......ugh, I spilled half...

    Speaking of mice eating wires.....years ago in YANKEE magazine was a very well- written and funny/scary poem,....about an invasion of chipmunks in the Winter, chewing on car wires, and how you could...

    44 degrees and raining. SiL called and texted me at 8:30 AM, to let her in the back door; I didn't get up earlier to do so. Fortunately it didn't take me long to fall back to sleep. And Momo didn't...

    UGH! Nannie just wanted to get up to the bathroom again....the third time in 20 minutes. I told her 'we' were not going to go through what we did the other night, with her telling me NINE times she...

    What's all this with vomiting cats? Is there something 'going around' or is it the cats' ages, or what? I hope they all get better and stay better! No more cat-puke; I have spoken!! Ya know, a...

    Woke up at 8:30, took my meds and went back to sleep for a couple of hours, and then VOILA, my hips and knees felt much better when I got up again. I love how the meds work! Had some coffee and...

    Friday January 3rd 2024

    I woke up at 6:45 AM and decided to get up and unlock the doors for SiL to come in without having to text me to get up and let her in (even though she has a key). I found Nannie sitting in her chair...
