    Tonight's dinner was all experimental, in a sense.

    We had never ordered Mexican food delivery before.

    We had never eaten at Los Rancheros.

    We had never used Doordash.com as a delivery service.

    Despite Mexican not really being optimal for food delivery, the food was satisfactory. I could have made, possibly, a better choice for J's vegetarian combo, but he said it was all right. My combo of an enchilada, a tamale, beans, and rice, was quite decent.

    The chips and salsa were very good.

    So we may eat from there again, and we may use Doordash.com again. Delivery was very prompt.

    Howdy y'all. It's scintillating Sunday! 45 out there now with an expected high of only 48 and 40% chance of PM showers.

    Today we'll try again to see if the vet can get Lilo to donate any urine for testing. They open at 1:00 and I hope to be there when they open.

    Might need to get on some laundry, but I'll check on that. I think it may be able to wait until tomorrow.

    Hi
    I did more walking this Morning. The temperature this morning was 26 on the porch and 29 on the cable channel. Just like yesterday as I was walking I could feel the cold through my sweatshirt under my Hoodie and my nose felt the cold too.
    The Weather forecast for Friday for a overnight low in the 20s for overnight cold was correct and records for overnight temperatures were broken Friday Morning :(
    There was another record low broken in at least one area this morning according to teh weather forecast I saw.

    Texting While Crossing The Street? It Could Cost You
    November 8, 2017 10:48 PM
    Hmmm. Interesting article on the frozen lion cub. Not sure how much credence to give that though, considering it's the Daily Star.

    I wonder why it took them so long to develop the old Nazi luxury resort. It seems that the site would have been done over long ago Perhaps they were trying to keep it intact for historical value, even though it had never actually been completed or used.

    Any time any space debris falls to earth I wonder where it's going to land and whether it's going to cause any serious damage. I'm kind of surprised we haven't developed some sort of method of destroying these things before they plunge to earth, at least breaking them up into tiny bits that will burn up on re-entry.

    I may have to browse all the Netflix codes to see how precise they get and whether I can find old favorites that way more easily.

    Texting while crossing the street does sound dangerous. Many people don't seem to be capable of walking and texting at the same time anyway, much less doing it while crossing a busy street!
    Hi Ed
    FWIW I had seen speculation that they might be able to clone Mammoths from the ones found frozen in the Tundra in Siberia.

    From what I have seen on the History channel there seem to be lots of Hitler's Infrastructure left in Europe. Including the Autobahn :)

    Bits of Space Debris have fallen to earth in the past, I suspect that it will continue to happen too.

    As a Netflix Subscriber I found that article interesting and thought I would share.

    There have been people hit while walking on the train tracks and crossing the street here in NJ...

    I'm not a fan of Mexican, OTOH Doordash is now available in this area and had wondered how good a job they do. I have thought of trying it with the Thai place.

    Good Morning! Brrrrrrrr! I think if the wind would stop it wouldn't be half bad out there?
    So far the temp has only come up to 44...not gonna be a sunny day at the beach here today.

    Just reheated my coffee mug, and pulled the ingredients out of the refrigerator and pantry to make a nice pot of vegan gravy...and a hot baked (microwaved) potato sounds to me like the beginnings of a hot breakfast. I've already eaten my morning banana :)

    Not sure what's on my agenda today. Obviously nothing urgent! Maybe some laundry? My original idea from yesterday was blowing leaves, but..at the rate the wind is blowing it would be silly to even try.

    Something is giving me issues...Facebook isn't loading...and then I was going to watch the surprising junk TV things that actually did work, and finally gave up. Email, this web site, my banking etc are all behaving nicely So it appears maybe its just video? Great. All I need is computer problems...might have to just go back to bed!?

    Later... (hunger wins)
    Hi Valerie
    The wind makes it worse for me, I can see it happening for You. I hope Your house is not drafty :)

    I have thought about doing Laundry today, OTOH Manana works for me too :)

    Yeah Ed, I've done that several times. Yesterday all day I couldn't load notifications...however when I woke about 3:30a. today it worked beautifully....and then this morning about 9:30 or so, no loading again. Been the same pretty much all day. I decided to skip back-up this morning just incase it is a 'whyrus' or something on my end. Didn't want to save a corrupt copy. If that makes any sense.
    As I think back, fb has been kinda cranky for a about 10 days, cuz I had Ted look at it last weekend. And of course it worked beautifully and he thinks I'm nuts. Oh well!
    Some of my email came up saying no content...yet if I looked at it on my phone, the message was there... just crazy nuts.

    Oh, the 'whyrus' is the phonetic of a former Doc's 'virus'...same guy always also had a 'pea-ill' for everything.

    I think I'm going to take a shower to warm up. I already raised the heat...still cold. :( gonna be a long long winter.

    That would have been my first suggestion, quite often a reboot does seem to fix things.

    Can You go back in time to before You started having problems with Facebook ?

    I hope You are wrong about it being a long long winter.

    Thank You for the Whyrus explanation...

    Hi
    I did was walking this Morning. The temperature this morning was 39 on the porch and 41 on the cable channel. The Weather forecast for scattered showers was in error as the weather radar showed rain over much of NJ and it did rain on me while I was walking.

    Hi Again
    While I was out walking I stopped at the local grocery store and picked up a sleeve of garlic for my brother and some 99 cent four once packs of Turkey and Ham @ 40 calories a slice to use in my midmorning snacks.

    I tried to add this to the message above and MFP would not let me save the changes :(

    We have our local Orchid Society meeting tonight and will be bringing in some donated plants from a friend, to auction off.

    I need to finish yesterday's laundry.

    And feed the cats, before they eat me.

    Hi,
    Was here this morning, read a good bit of the articles...then went to be tested for my new hearing aids. Expensive little dudes! Are you sitting down? $2100.00 each. Thank goodness I only have 2 ears. Now, I will have to say there are cheaper ones. But you get what you pay for. These mate up with my iPhone thru bluetooth, and I will have a LOT of control over how I hear.
    So, with all that in mind, I went out and blew leaves for nearly 3 hours, am now in eating my dinner, and about to throw a load of dirty clothes in the washer, and if that isn't enough, I'm going to Upgrade my MacOS...it can do that by itself while I sleep. :) And I will sleep well tonite! And tomorrow I will be back outside working on still more leaves. Most leaves are out of the trees. I was able to get about a quarter of them blown from the front yard to the side yard. Those still need to be blown into the woods. And I'll do the same with the other quarter of the front yard.

    So if you don't hear from me for a day or two, the Upgrade has not gone well...OR my arm and shoulder are too sore to type.!!!! LOL!

    Later, she said muttering 'hope, hope, hope'

    Howdy y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! 43 out there now with an expected high of 59 and no chance of rain.

    I need to fold some clothes, feed me, feed the cats, and clear the sink.

    Possibly a grocery trip and hopefully a nap!

    Hi
    I did was walking this Morning. The temperature this morning was 29 on the porch and 31 on the cable channel. I got a late start today due to sleeping late :)

    My sole plans for today is a trip to the Dollar Store for a Quart or two of UHT Milk to put on the shelf and some Greeting Cards for a Birthday and Christmas, FWIW they sell at a 2 for $1.

    No Links today :(

    Have a Great Tuesday

    It would not be the first time cats did that, OTOH I think you need to be one of the no longer with us.
