Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! 69 with an expected high of 92 and 0% chance of precipitation.
Need to get yesterday's cat bowls cleaned up and definitely need to get on that laundry of whites. Meeting a friend at IHoP for breakfast in a while.

Need to maybe wash whites and also need to get out to buy some kibble for the younger cats. Lilo and Oliver have plenty of their respective kibbles right now. I can pick up some more canned food for Oliver while out too, and if I time it right might even be able to pick up lunch for J if my memory is correct about Publix having Italian on the food bar on Wednesdays.
And I need to clean up yesterday's cat bowls and feed the cats.
Overnight lows are forecast to be in the 60s for the next week with reasonable high temperatures.
Yesterday we went to the local appliance store and bought a new leftover discounted floor model dryer. There was a Maytag that I would have been happy with for $20 lower in price. My brother did not like it as the controls were on the front which meant a flat top and my brother figured that he would be knocking things off of the top behind the dryer. There was a nice Speed Queen if pricey that I might have gone for, 5 year warranty on that one vs 1 year on the others.
I wish the Local Grocery Stores hot food bar had a pattern for what they put out. If so I have not figured out what it is
That looks interesting, I will know if I want to get one after viewing the Video later.parityanimal wrote: »What is Mr. Wolfe eating now?

Hi
I'm back home from walking and No Money found. The Temperature out the door was 68 degrees and semi comfortable. When I left the house it was dry outside and there is rain in the forecast.
While walking I saw one deer on the outbound leg and three on the return leg.
When my brother went out to mow he found a pile of fresh deer droppings and when I went to pick the Green Beans I could see where the Deer had eaten a fair amount of the leaves and even the tomatoes had stems missing. I did get some Green beans, Raspberries and Heirloom Cherry Tomatoes OTOH. I also got a case of itchy legs, I should have put on the long pants first

Need to fold the whites from yesterday's laundry and maybe even put them away! And, of course, need to clean up yesterday's cat bowls and feed the cats.
Still fighting this sinus infection, with good days and bad. I know it's still there because I can still taste it. Blech. It's not presenting as bacterial so I'm going with the assumption, so far, that it's viral so no antibiotics. If it continues too much longer, I may actually get a doctor's opinion.

I think I may take advantage of the Coupons from the Acme and pick up the 3+ pound 80% lean Hamburger at $2.88 a pound, The $2.77 pound of Butter, and maybe a Chock Full of Nuts 23 to 26 ounce coffee for $4.99. For this area these are good prices sadly. Then Monday I need to go to CostCo for some frozen vegetables as I have enough left to go into tomorrow.
It does not sound as if You are having much luck shaking that infection. Good Luck shaking it soon.

Hi ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »Hi...
quickie this morning. Ted coming out to mow lawn shortly. I've had my banana, and if I don't get into the kitchen soon, that may 'be' breakfast! Coffee is cold..
Today is Fred Rogers Day on Google home page...cute video clip. Worth a look/see.
I need to watch the Costco vid. again...I don't recall seeing anything I'd have questioned. I do know that a Costco employee told me about the asterisk years ago. Its a good hint worth knowing.
Roger you seem to suddenly be seeing an uptick of deer. Sorry about your garden, but glad you were still able to get some produce for yourself!
Cold Coffee makes me shudder, forget Iced COffee, My brother can drink it hot or cold.
I did not even have to go to Google to see it as it was shown on the TV news out of New York. Since I do not go to Google often I would likely have missed it.
The Deer are eating the leaves off of many things, Zucchini leaves, Tomato Leaves and much of the leaves from the Climbing beans. My brother explains it this way, He says that they are eating heavy to put on weight for the winter.
I'm guessing that the install went OK, I wish I could trust Apple and privacy issues, I have none for Google and Amazon especially the Voice interface devices and the Android O/S.Ed, hope you get your sinus' back on the 'good' side. Miserable headaches. I used to have them a lot when we moved to TN. Something there did not like my nose, and a lot of people had the same issues.
And, its now 3 hours later....kid showed up a bit ahead of schedule....yard now mowed, trimmed, early fall leaves blown out of driveway, and we sat and chatted after he washed his car. (I trimmed some Burfordii Holly while he washed his car.) Going to now fix my lunch, while the iPhone is installing the new operating system. Then it will be off to the gym, and when home again...kitchen stripping will commence!
So exciting...lol!!
Back later and do reading and watching...what he heck was Emmy doing??? Don't tell me...I'll watch that first!
Later...
What are You doing in the kitchen this time, I had thought You were done ?
The architecture fails make You wonder, what were they thinking.GardenKatGardens wrote: »Ok, just about all caught up on the video's...Roger, some of those 'architecture' fails are just enough to make you go head butt the wall several times....
Those dessert dairy free videos were delicious looking...I'd hate to think what the calorie counts were...or the fat percentages!!! There are several places out here that have vegan desserts..again you 'pay' for them in fat and calories, but for the occasional.......
Ted and I discussed his staying with me for a couple days if I have knee replacement surgery. He's very agreeable..I'm still on the fence. But this right knee is really giving me fits. Its inflamed..I can actually feel the heat if I put my hand on my knee, and mostly its also hurtful...so while the kid is taking his sabbatical I may take advantage of his help.
Finally did get to the gym...and had a nap as well this afternoon...kitchen is now cleaned up, have the step stool, and stripping will commence tomorrow a.m.. See you then!
Sugar free, Fat Free, and Dairy free often run to a higher calorie count to get the expected taste.
I will say this, Mom had both knees replaced and that restored her mobility. The Doctors suggested to her to get both done at the same time as they were both bad since it is painful from what I gather. With both being done she ended up in a rehab facility which worked out for her. The one knee did not get 100% better since she put it off to long so...
Good Luck

Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday! 71 with an expected high of 90 and 20% chance of precipitation.
There is a pool party supposed to happen this afternoon, but not at the usual location. It's at one of our alternate locations, not as spacious a venue, and there will not be burgers and dogs, but deli sandwiches instead. I do not have baked beans in the oven. Woke up with that darn sinus headache. It's a bit better now, and my breathing is pretty clear, at least when sitting upright, but that nasty taste is still at the back of my throat and I haven't prepared anything for the party. I'm not sure yet whether I'm going but I think it may be wiser to stay home and nap. J can go without me, and will go without me if I decide for sure to not go. He always helps keep things sorted out with the donations and all. I usually help with arranging the food, making sure everything has a serving utensil stuck in it, if it needs one, keeping an eye on the ice, etc. But I'm sure they can manage that without me.
I'm not sure if I would have made beans anyway, though I guess they would have been a decent side dish with deli sandwiches. I would still have time to make a a quick noodle dish if I decided to go. Or just bring nothing, as I have, on occasion done, when we had other things we had to do prior to a party.
J is not up yet, so I don't have to decide right now.
I did get that laundry folded and put away yesterday. Now I get to ponder the "regular" clothes, though that one is not critical as yet. In the summer I tend to wear gym shorts and a tee most of the time at home, and if I go anywhere that doesn't require long pants, just change to a pair of regular shorts and add a shirt, socks, and shoes.
So the "regular clothes" bin doesn't fill up so fast.
Need to get yesterday's cat bowls cleaned and feed the cats in a bit.

Hmm...
Bad Sinus headache would be a no go for me.
Cold Baked Beans like the homemade ones made starting with dried beans is pretty tasty, I do think a hot bean dish OTOH would not work with Deli, at least for me.
Side Dishes to me would be Potato Salad, Macaroni Salad, maybe a Olive mix or Cheese chunks
There is nothing worse than a dish with no utensil
Just curious, what type of Noodle Dish ?
Yesterday, Friday, The New Dryer arrived early and as I was out on the road delivering Sliced Metwurst, a type of sliced dried sausage, The one You typically see in a Italian Deli with what looks like white salt leaching onto the outside and a couple of sleeves of Ritz Crackers, A Unopened jar of Peanut Butter and the other two sleeves of crackers. That should be tasty and gets rid of temptation tooJ is not up yet, so I don't have to decide right now.
I did get that laundry folded and put away yesterday. Now I get to ponder the "regular" clothes, though that one is not critical as yet.

So the "regular clothes" bin doesn't fill up so fast.
Need to get yesterday's cat bowls cleaned and feed the cats in a bit.
Then I was in CVS looking for something my brother wanted when the cellphone went off that the Dryer delivery was already there and they could not find the Gas Shutoff. So home where I found the the shutoff and the dryer was installed. It has a feature we will likely never use. That would be a Shelf that clips into the Lint trap area to dry things like sneakers. Later I read the manual since this one is more complicated than the one it is replacing.
That is similar to myself, I wear a pair of black elastic waist shorts and T-Shirt and change into outdoor shorts or long pants with a belt and the same Pocket T-Shirt.

Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday! 67 with an expected high of 87 and 0% chance of precipitation.
J had a good time at the party yesterday and after he came back we had dinner at our favorite Thai restaurant. I spent the afternoon and early evening resting, some of it at the computer and some of it horizontally, with my nap buddy, Kiara.
For the moment I feel pretty decent but the day is early, and you know how that goes. After a decent night's sleep you might feel great for a while but it wears off.
I thought breakfast was going to be some of J's leftover pizza from Friday night but it seemed to have disappeared during the night and the pizza box was on the sofa with only a few crumbs in it. This was good as I didn't really want that for breakfast but didn't want it to go to waste either. I guess it might have gone to waist. But not mine!
Need to get yesterday's cat bowls cleaned up and feed the cats. The dishwasher is running now.
