Maybe that'll work, WRINC. But be sure to show her a picture of me wearing my new T-shirt that I'll put up soon's it arrives from my good buddy in China. I bet she'll love it.

Good morning everyone,
They're coming over for dinner and games tonight, Docputer, so nothing involving politics is allowed.
Saw a couple of snowflakes as it was getting dark last night. Their buddies have been slowly arriving since then, with more on the way.

We've got snow showers predicted for Thursday night, but I think it will melt upon arrival 'cause it's gonna be in the upper 30's.
Wife wants to go pick up the paneling at Lowes today. Once we get that and it's put up she can clean up my mess and decorate the porch for Christmas. I think she should wait until after Thanksgiving, but, My Garage, Her House.

Good morning everyone,
The snow we got, and inch or two, will likely stick around for a week or so. Still in the '20s.
Dinner was fun and the AZ husband won the Farkel game. What with so many interruptions, it took most of the evening to finish.

We got a dusting of snow, left a tad of snow on the windshield of the truck. But it's colder than a well diggers ankles out there. I hate the cold.
WRINC, all's well that ends well.

No snow in SanTONEyo, but it was chilly last night. I had to throw on another blanket to keep both balls....not that they are worth much anymore....SNIFF!
Anyway, hope you Yankees keep all yours.

I'm in the recliner with a sherpa throw blanket on me and watching Pittsburgh play Cleveland on a snowy night.

Good morning everyone,
It's currently +16°F here at Stalker Lake. I don't think it will reach you, Docputer.
Shopping needs to be done.

It's a balmy +39 here in Yankeeville, guessed to rise to a sweltering +45 in the foreseeable future.
We picked up the paneling for the front porch Wednesday and I'm gonna try to put it up today. Donated blood yesterday and didn't feel like doing anything yesterday.

Donated blood once when I was about sixteen or so...I think. AFTER they took the blood, they found out I'd had Malaria and they threw it away. Pretty damned stupid way of doing things, I thought, and I let them know about it. Now they don't want my blood because I'm older than moon rocks.
Suits me.
Got close to freezing last night. Sure hope my big moringa tree survived. Got a big lace-up cover for it coming from my good buddy in China, though. Hope it's here today or tomorrow.
Farkel on down the road, Doods.

Good morning everyone,
I used to donate blood when I was in the army. I tried to donate when I got home,
but they said I had antibodies for Hepatitis, so I can't donate anymore. My blood is O-, so it would be highly prized.

A buddy and I donated when I was in the Air Force at Abilene, Dyes AFB. We only donated because we got the rest of the day off, or the next day, I forget. Anyway when I got transferred to Little Rock I quit giving blood. But I started again when I was in Undercarriage Marketing at Caterpillar and kept on doing it. I'm working on 10 gallons now.
The grandson and I got all the drywall on the front porch done last night. Now I need to put the paneling up. This house is a tad crooked so I got to figure out how I'm going to do it. Also a bit of moisture showed up when the driving rain came from the west. I talked to the man I get advice and he told me to do exactly as I thought to do. Every once in a while I figger out the right way. I don't think I'll get to work on the porch today as the wife and I are going to do some errands for a woman who is disabled.

NOT a good morning.
Here I am up at 4 of the A and M with painful legs and an arm. Guess I'll try for another usually-unhelpful shot in the arm soon. The legs get a slathering of some doctor grease and a pair of socks for the time being, and I get a Tramadol and a half and a couple of heavy-duty Acetamenophens. Maybe I'll sleep for a while now...maybe not...but at least I won't feel quite so freaking bad.
Don't get this old guys. Go have more fun. Maybe you'll have a fun-time accident and get an "early out."
