Good morning. About 32* outside but felt nice. Dig those 99 packs over in Minnesota. Have a good day. I am drinking the good coffee. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Stopping by to wish you a lovely Sunday.. I do hope you are doing well, and that you have an enjoyable day.. Take care and have a great week~~~ hugs, debijo
Good morning. Another weekend is in the books and we prepare for Monday. Last night I did a recovery on my computer as it has been running slow, among other things. I went back in time, about a month and that seemed to have cleared up most of my problems. Of course the war between Microsoft and this writer continues about their insistence on updating my computer. I have done a good job in resisting them. They have not been able to get a major update into my computer in almost a year. I did notice they got an update in about a month ago, but it was not major even though they considered it critical. In either case, as usual when doing these things, my Chrome browser would not open so I had to reinstall that. That of course is no problem. I did come across a problem I never had come across the floor. Not so much a problem as just an odd thing. The time on my computer was an hour off. I would imagine that is because I went to the other side of the date that we change our clocks. However, it was exactly opposite of what it should have been if that were the case. I assumed it would rectify itself this morning but it had not so I had to manually set it. It is not a big thing except I never had to do it before. But then again I probably never ran a recovery on my computer that close to the date of changing the clock. I did not go for my exercise this morning despite the temperature being balmy, about 35°. I'm trying to get rid of whatever the problem is that I believe is in my sinuses and I can't imagine that it is doing me any good to be out at 3:00 AM in the freezing cold with the dampness. I think if I can't shake this in another week I shall stop in at the express clinic at my grocery store and see if they can give me some medication. I try to do without medication if I can but this is annoying. I shall give this further thought. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet! A side note: I'm drinking the bad coffee.
Italian bread delivered to my house today from Milan Italy. Some people, quite a few actually, sit around and talk Italian while eating it
Wishing you a great weekend & hope all is well with you & yours. Know some are really freezing. Not too bad here even after the cold front came in . We started putting up some inside Christmas decorations & brought a bed downstairs for the wife to have when she has her knee replacement Tuesday. Might get the outside decorations up today while it's still warm but not turn them on yet. Throw another log on the fire & keep warm with a big hug.....George
Good morning Celtic Angel. Today is the day the people of Rome, and this writer, call THE IDES OF NOVEMBER. Movie Day is up in the air because of a leaking drain pipe on the kitchen sink. Will be a game time decision. Does not matter anyway as it is not a movie I am waiting in line to see. More on this at a later time, maybe. It is 28* at 4 this morning, pushing 41* for a high. Bring out the swim suits. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet.
Good morning. I did not go for my exercise this morning for various reasons. I did go outside to throw out some water and found that there was some snow on the ground. Nothing major. Just enough to be irritating. It actually is relatively warm this morning, about 25°. And I believe we are headed to go above freezing today. I still must have that problem with my sinus as I became somewhat dizzy or lightheaded yesterday. And immediately after, my teeth started to hurt. Not being accustomed to having problems, I really don't know how to handle it. I'm hoping it mysteriously disappears. The worst thing is it happened as I was preparing to return my item to Best Buy. I took no chances and took my quarterstaff along with me in case this was a case of vertigo like the one that attacked me last spring. I'm almost certain it is not because in that case it was debilitating. In either case, it eventually left. But of course like everything else, this is made worse by discovering my drainpipe on the sink is leaking. Naturally I do not feel like lying on the ground and fixing it. Since it is nothing major, I shall wait for a better time. In either case, I have previewed the weather conditions for the next ten days and they actually look reasonable for time of year. In other words, I do not see any single digit temperatures. I have not decided on an agenda for today as of yet. I have nothing mandatory until Saturday afternoon. Have a good day. Ciao for now a watch your wallet!
happy mid-week, we have snow and it's pretty cold out...the wild turkeys were visiting this morning when i was filling up the bird feeders. they don't even run from me anymore...hope your day is sunny and happy...mk
Happy HUMP DAY. It is another cold morning. Warmer than yesterday but the wind was atrocious. The good thing was there was no moisture in the air. Yesterday when I embarked on my journey, the windows in my house were frosted up. Not so this morning. When I went out to throw out the water, I knew there would be problems with the wind but I was determined not to fail as I did yesterday. I took a different route thinking it would be better but I think in the long run, it would have been better for me to take my regular route. In either case, to start out this morning I walked approximately 1 mile into the wind. However, I knew there would be relief on the way back so I was able to persevere. Everything went according to plan but I felt I was not going to reach my 3 miles unless I did some extra credit. So, I walked about 3/4 mile north knowing that it was going to be terrible coming back. I was correct but knowing that my journey would soon be ended, I was able to martyr myself for this brief period. Unfortunately when I arrived at my FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE, I discovered that the cold weather had affected some of my teeth. I ended up with a tooth ache for about an hour before I recovered. I feel fully recovered at the present time to dictate this communique with clarity. In either case, I'm not certain on my agenda for the rest of the day. Yesterday I found something that is not properly working in my car. Fortunately, so far, it only affects my ability to put gasoline into the car rapidly. I shall persevere without the expense of repairs at this time. If it affects the car in any other way, I shall climb on a chair and jump. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet! I'm drinking the good coffee this morning.
Good morning Celtic Angel. A cold morning in my backyard. I knew what the forecast was going to be and I had hopes of being able to complete my exercise this morning. I went out to throw out the water and it was cold. I decided to go out for my walk. I decided not to take my regular route in case I became too cold to continue. I wanted to remain within a mile of my house. So I basically stayed in the area. I completed approximately one and a half miles, maybe a little less before losing the battle to the evil of the weather. Even after making the decision of discontinuing my walk, before going back into the house, I contemplated continuing my torture, however, I decided it to give up. The temperature is 7° F with a windchill of - 7°. For this time of the year, this is unusual. I used to walk to work when it would be - 20°and snowing, but that would be January. In either case, I only complain about this situation for medicinal purposes. I am planning on going to the grocery store today. I shall wait for daybreak for that to come. Maybe a stop before at church. Always good to double up on that kind of situation. I can't wait for Thursday when the temperature shall hit 32°. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. Diffuser
Good morning. Cold morning. 19* with windchill of 6*. I thought it was going to be slippery out with the snow showers last night but it was cold enough the snow did not adhere and it blew away. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Happy Sunday. It is 33* at 4 in the morning, but seems cooler. Unfortunately, this will be the high for today, and tomorrow........... we shall reach 9* on Monday night. In 5 billion years, I shall not have to worry of this as the Earth will be inside the sun. I shall have to keep the motorcycle in the garage then or the paint will be damaged. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Happy Saturday. Off to a good start with my exercise walk today. Even did some extra credit. Felt nice out at 31* only because of the temps of late. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet.
Happy weekend to you & think it's going to be a cold one. Getting our plants protected this weekend as it might freeze here Mon. & Tues. Enjoy your day & do whatever you like while you can.....George
Good morning. It is MOVE DAY. I think I am going to go, however, I am showing some cowardice because of the weather. It is 10° F, however it says it feels like 4° F. I personally do not know because I did not have any water to throw out this morning. The good news is it is going to be 33°. Bring out the sunscreen and head to the beach. Actually, the movie I am thinking of seeing is somewhat long, about 2 1/2 hours. I also do not recognize people who are in the movie. I have screened a preview and it looks like it is going to be in alright movie. I shall take it under consideration as I still have four and a half hours from the time of this communique. And of course with the cold weather one feels like one is coming down with a minor cold. Probably somewhere between my imagination and reality. If I were to have a dental appointment right now, I would probably be imagining I'm flat on my back on my deathbed. In either case I shall move forward and hopefully persevere. At 4:00 AM, I had the courage to look out the window, and I have noticed my car is full frost. Proper terminology: humbug! Of course that means that if I decide to go somewhere, I shall have to go out to warm up the car so that the windshield defrosts. I remember many days when I used to go to work driving down the road with my head out of the window because of the windshield being frosted. Of course, if I wait till later, the windshield shall clear automatically. Needless to say, because of the weather conditions, I have not scheduled any events for local establishments tonight. There is some doubt on whether the motorcycle shall be activated again this year. People in my neighborhood and been trying to console me that the ice and snow shall leave, but I do not believe that. There was too much water in the snow for this writer to consider some kind of miracle of the ground becoming clear again. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Cold out. 15* with wind chill of 7*. Next week colder. My bike will not make it out this weekend for social events. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Happy hump day to you. A beautiful day here & waiting for the cool front to come in but not like some of you have. Had a trash truck at the school crossing turn the corner & the dump door was not secured & dumped a bunch of trash & garbage. He stopped ,called for a cleanup crew but what a mess with the people coming to school & traffic. Love smelling garbage & diesel smoke in the mornings. Hope your week is doing good so take care with a big hug.......George
Yesterday, I bought a pizza from the grocery store. This does not happen often because of the limitations of my freezer. When I do purchase one, it is almost always with the intent of imminent use. This might sound overly dramatic but it is something a lot of people live with every day of my life. In either case, my intent always...... is to take it home, cook it and eat half. Instead, once again, I lost control and ate the whole thing. Woe is me!
Good morning. Expecting snow today. Saw some ice this morning. The air has the feel of snow coming.
Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on the snow. I am the sunlight on the ripened grain. I am the gentle Autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry: I am not there, I did not die.
Good morning. It is good to get the weekend finished. We now get back to the real world where there are no problems. When I went out for my exercise this morning, I was met with balmy weather. I think about 39°. Of course the problem is, it is not going to get much warmer than that the rest of the day. I think they're calling for a top temperature of 40°. Using my education in math and science, I have come to the conclusion that is only a difference of 1°. In either case, it is going to get a lot colder the rest of the week. Speaking of the rest of the week, I wonder how many people realize that today is the birthday of Will Rogers. I believe it is 140 for him. In either case, I still have not made it to the grocery store which I was planning on going on Saturday. Thus, I am planning on going today. Of course I have the leeway of tomorrow. There is nothing radical I have to get so it shall be a game time decision. I may also have to stop at my local financial institution for something. They were supposed to return my phone call last week and that was never accomplished. Of course I could make the necessary arrangements online but I would sooner have a conversation with a personal banker and ask for some ridiculous interest rate so that they can bargain with me and still give me nothing. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Dropping in to wish you a lovely Sunday, hope all is well, and your weather isn't too cold. Weather here has been great the last couple of days, sunny and around 70. Just perfect for getting out and doing last minute things before Winter sets in, and getting the leaves raked up. Funny I don't have any trees in my yard but I always end up with leaves, seems the wind likes to blow them my way lol.. Anyway, you take care, enjoy your day and have a great week~~~ hugs, debijo
Good morning. Went out this morning and 29* but now wind and seemed pretty nice. Later this week, 19* and that will not feel nice. Got up too early this morning due to the new time in my backyard. Agenda for today: NOTHING. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet. Drinking the good coffee this morning.
