The highlights of my day were laundry, dishes, and cooking, and that sounds about as exciting as it was. I did finish the book I was reading.
I made a creamy potato/hamburger soup that wasn't bad...
Hope you're feeling better and better, Joe, and have a good weekend.
Stars, it's good to get a refund for the car insurance. Everything helps.
We are having "abundant sunshine" according to...
My late BiL was an insurance claims adjuster and would sometimes go work in areas where there had been storms and such because the insurance companies were overwhelmed and would pay $$$ for extra...
I'm so glad you have power again, Tweety. Blessings on your friend with all this to cope with.
And glad that you're healing, J22. Good that your MiL is home.
Joe, there may be something to...
Going back to Halloween chex mix... sounds good. I like candy corn, too.
Our lab manager keeps track of celebration days... like, today was National Dessert Day so he brought a bunch of sweets....
Sorry to have been avoidant, again. I was pretty tired after traveling and of course there was a lot of catching up to do at work. I've been icing my feet and knees since they are especially achy...
Thinking of you and your friend and his cat, Tweety.
On this last day of the conference I skipped out a little early and went to the San Diego Zoo. My feet and knees are complaining but it was a...
Yes, the pictures from the path of Helene are awful. Tweety, hoping you don't get the big storm surge and all stays safe.
We had a good meeting today. I guess I really do find this stuff...
My brother is fed up with living on the Gulf Coast but I doubt he's moving anywhere.
Gosh, Stars, I was just grumbling to myself about my forced removal from my daily routines. Not that I miss...
Ouch, J22!
Tweety, a new car can be fun but the circumstances weren't ideal.
We were delayed in Phoenix over an hour due to fog in San Diego but should be on our way again
dianah, glad the kitty seems to be on the mend. I think the pumpkin chili sounds really good. Not sure my guys would be willing to try it (especially Hubs). Might try it alongside a pot of standard...
I'm sorry, Stars. How frustrating!
At least you can know you took the high road and inquired about stepdaughter's safety.
President Carter is 100 years old today. I voted for him in the...
Joe, my work day yesterday was a real "Monday" as well. Was able to get more done today.
Yay for bowling wins!
I went ahead and got my flu shot today since I thought I should get it before...
For the few years that we would go to Port St. Lucie over Spring break, where the in-laws had a place in a 55-and-over community, I looked forward to going to Florida in early April. Indiana was still...
Hooray for having power back on. And air conditioning!
So Hubs decided yesterday to start getting boxes relocated as we were supposedly going to do during my week off. These were boxes of...
The building to the left was a hotel back in the early days. It started as a railroad town pre-statehood in the Indian Territory. Just across the river was the Oklahoma
Stars, there is a caboose downtown in my little town. One of our neighbors when I was growing up --and good friends of my parents -- worked for the railroad for many years and somehow acquired the...
Tweety, I'm sorry your trip had to be canned but glad you are safe. My BIL once slid off the road in his car during a flash flood and the car was totaled due to being flooded. Hopefully insurance will...
Yes, stay safe all in the path of the storm!
The boys just got back from a movie. It was a really pretty day. I sat outside after supper for a bit until the mosquitoes drove me in.
Our...
It is indeed always something. Especially with cats and cars!
Hubs was up to his elbows under the hood of the Jeep when I got home and he wanted to finish what he was doing so he didn't go to...
Yes, when Gma comes into the kitchen when I'm cooking/cleaning I think she probably thinks she should help. She used to ask if there was anything she could do but she is beyond that now. And of course...
