Good morning early folk. Although up at 4 am to take care of my dog who needs his meds, I needed coffee first. So I could have caught Lili.

My hard work to get 7 hours or more of continuous sleep is out the window with the dog and his meds schedule. I am now on a course of 6 core hours with naps during the day. Not ideal until I talk to the Vet.

Sounds like a fun evening!

‘Twas fun for sure. They are the best people and we have similar tastes in music. Neighbors wife’s dad passed a few mos ago and my mom passed too. So whiskey was drunk to remember those who passed, blaring music was played and moshing commenced!!!!

I just started checking on this for my state. I also need to renew my passport as it's expired. I'm planning a trip to see family in March. I can still fly with my regular WA DL.

It was a process, bit not too bad. Get that passport renewed!!! Greylag is gonna be soooooo surprised!

Up for a bit but hoping to go back soon. Quick your catch up of the thread revealed our dear @Lilianna23 doing her own ketchup. So glad she's feeling better!

I will let go others and helping our friends across the pond weathered the recent storms well. We hope to see them visit us on the thread again soon with out Tales of Horror and whoa.

You almost caught me last night, B2! I just couldn't stay awake long enough!

Sleep well!

Your devotion is commendable be too. I hope I review of your efforts combined with some input from the vet result in a positive outcome here for everyone.

You're not completely naked! You have boots on!

(Of course I looked! )

The snow was cold!!

Up, kinda running, not caught up. Fixin'ta pack it and load it to hit the road. There's fuel in the truck. Kitten is in the dark, but that won't last long.


I made extra coffee for drivin'.


Hasta esta tarde . . . .

One can get botulism from potatoes???

OK. I just looked it up. Seems baking potatoes in foil and leaving the foil on as they cool can reawaken spores. This article also referenced your church picnic:

The botulism was from home-canned potatoes.

It was awful

Most southerners have no idea how to manage cold!

I think we become acclimated to the climate we live in after time. I used to laugh at my daughter when she would come back to PA and say how cold it was. She lived down here for years. Now I find myself feeling the cold temps that up north I would have thought as not so bad. Humidity level has an effect too. I pulled out boxes with my lined jeans, turtlenecks and fleece line shirts and jackets.

I guess only 1 dies.... but a whole bunch sick...... it was hell

Me too. We picked almost 10 gallons this year. Only cleaned up 1/4 of what was there. Did 8 gallons by myself the year before.

I have them in smoothies for breakfast (along with apples, carrots, celery, broccoli, etc...). Apples and berries give enough flavor the veggies sort of disappear. It tastes sweeter than it really is. (But don't tell my taste buds that!)

Assuming you freeze what you don’t eat?? We usually have enough frozen blueberries to last us throughout the year. (We do eat a lot - in our breakfast most mornings)

 

[Wonderer67]

I swear we need to have a swap.... like I will bring fresh apples you bring a pile of blackberries someone ( lilianna) bakes something wat makes gravy etc... and we share ....wouldn't that be a good idea?

Too bad we all live in different states

I think this year we should all get together in person. Serious!

At least for the US… you and RJ are probably the most central!

Im not sayin, I’m Just sayin!

I did too..... hahahahaha

BuT...did you zoom in??????

Good for you, girl! NOBODY should be sitting if one person is working flat out! I hated that when I was working staff. If I was charge, I'd make those sitting around go help. If I was staff, I'd loudly ask for help!

" she didn't ask.for.help" excuse used to make me.so.mad.....

Wel my questions are have you seen here? Did she get lunch? Can't you see she is stressed? Observation is our thing..... you can't read a situation or you don't want too.....

 

[Wonderer67]

Nice! One question... was the Bigfoot Forest Pose deliberate?

BINGO!

It was the Bigfoot pose.

 

[Missk_2022]

Why were you up! I hope you've gone back to sleep! I'm headed there soon!

I feel back asleep..but up again......ugh

 

[Wonderer67]

Go with bare minimum. Let him fuck himself!

This is sound advice.

When people are dicks. I got not time or use for them. And when it’s at work? They’ll get nothing but bare minimum.

Be careful our wat..... let us know when you get home......

We need to have a reunion!!

Yeah me too....

This was a last ditch effort... i don't want unpleasantness.... my prayer worked... let's hope we keep in step with it

 

[Wonderer67]

I love cherries. During the season, I buy so much! Part of them get eaten fresh. Some go into the freezer. I don't make jam but I do make my own cherry pie filling. It goes into tons of things!

That sound delish!!!

I think we should rent a big house somewhere like Gatlinburg or at the beach that sleeps as many people as we need...... trial by fire.

 

[Wonderer67]

I have finally caught up! I'm feeling MUCH better! Today was the first day I have felt good at all. I decided to take my girl to Costco. She's now my Service Dog and I wanted to give her exposure to more people in a busy environment. I'm planning a trip to visit family in March. She's coming with me.

She rides in a pouch that I wear. She does really well around others and is friendly and quiet. Still, I'm having some anticipatory anxiety about our trip. If anyone has ideas or suggestions, I'd welcome them.

I hope you all have a lovely Saturday. Those of you in the snow zones (both north AND south!) be careful when out and about. Those of you across the pond, I hope you didn't have too much damage from the storm.

So glad you’re feeling better Lil.

Sounds like you have a nice day planned!

Awww sorry. B2. Hugs brother.

I know how important sleep is for you, so I know this is def a wrinkle in your routine….

Safe travels brother!!

Glad it’s not as cold as your trip a few days ago.

Even the. Utter cold wasn’t too bad after a day or two.

Then yesterday was 30! I just wore a flannel shirt and felt warm!

I remember those days. The worst cold I was in was in Denver CO at Lowry AFB going to tech school. The place ran 24 7 and we had to march to school. I don't know the acutal temps anymore but some guys got frost bite and after that we could just walk to classes.
