Hi
I'm back home from walking and once again no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 14 degrees, It was still cold outside.

Hi ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »Good Morning!
Is my computer playing games with me? I don't see a Feb 1 from Ed??
Roger I read several of the articles. May have to ban you from posting things from the UK..LOL!!! I loved this line:
"No wonder most cat owners are doolally." From the comment section of the article about Toxoplasmosis. So I have a new trait to explore....Doolally!! Made me laugh out loud!
Doing laundry right now is a breeze, start washer add detergent to the water as it fills, throw in the clothes and I may, or may not catch the rinse cycle for my Downy...(I have Costco Dryer Sheets as back ups) Ted takes dry clothes to my room, and tosses them on the bed, and sometime before I go to sleep in the evening things get folded or hung. Easy Peasy!
I am feeling MUCH better today! Both my leg, and my shoulder. I just have to remind myself not to over do...
I've also become a near pro at wrapping Ace bandage on my leg! I've fumbled with that process in the past, so I now count that as a new skill.
Ok, Computer announced its eleven o'clock, and I have paperwork to fill out....
Later...
I had noticed Ed's absence too...
No Fabric Softener or Dryer sheets for me. I am not a fan of the scent and I know it bothers my brother and TBH they come out of the dryer soft enough for me.
I am happy to hear that You are feeling much better, May that trend continue.
There is no doubt in my mind that the British look at some things differently than we do.
The news links my brother finds from there seem to do a much better coverage of Our and Global news the the news networks here do.
I had problems in the past with the Ace Bandages too, not so much wrapping them around the Knee as keeping them in place as the day went on.
Our local TV news, non network covered the Jenga playing robot and had video of the robot making a couple of moves. To go with the Robot theme here is this one:GardenKatGardens wrote: »For giggles...
Came from my CNN news feed! Finally something share worthy.
The robots are coming
They really are taking over. They're cleaning our houses, stocking grocery shelves and parking cars at the airport. And now they're beating us at Jenga.
Hope your day goes well.

TBH I find the AI robots a bit scary, mostly as to the impact they will have on employment.
The robots are not coming, they're here
Have a Good Day

Howdy all y'all! It's satisfying Saturday! 16C/61F with an expected high of 19C/66F and 0% chance of precipitation.
I have been up for ages but distracted by all the usual stuff.
Need to clean up yesterday's food bowls and it's nearly time to figure out lunch. An afternoon nap would be lovely too.

Here is a quick question for both of You, How much of a problem is the Super Bowl AKA stupor bowl causing in Atlanta ? I saw news articles reporting that there was a shortage of Limos and that There is a problem with Drones.

I can't really say how badly the game is affecting us here in the northeast burbs. I presume major issues further in though. I never even try to go anywhere far from home on big game weekends if I can help it.0

Good Morning!
It's going to be nicely warm outdoors today, but there will also be rain. I'm betting the roof of the Mercedes Benz Stadium will be closed.

Howdy all y'all. It's magnificent Monday! 3C/38F with an expected high of 18C/64F and 20% chance of precipitation.
Need to clean up yesterday's food bowls and feed the felines. Dishwasher is running now so after a while I will be putting dishes away.
A good example of how much I care about football would be that I don't know who won the Super Bowl. I would be much more interested in a Superb Owl.

We are headed into a short stretch of nice weather and above average temperatures here in NJ, Whee.
Hmm..., 1 garlic clove, tsp cumin, tsp thyme, tbsp cayenne pepper are something I do not use. Usually meatballs here have Italian Breadcrumbs, Egg as a binder, and a little onion.parityanimal wrote: »This Colorful Bunch Makes Something Really Awesome Meatballs
That does remind me that there was a coupon in the ShopRite circular for 80% lean Ground Beef in the family size package for $1.99. According to the Meat department person my Brother talked to they are having trouble keeping up with the demand. My brother had to wait in line to get a package and when he got one off of the newest tray and turned back from putting it in the cart there was only one left. They Grind 80 pounds at a time and package it in 3 pound packages. The one he picked up is already in the oven baking after having been formed into Hamburger Patties. I may run out Tuesday and use a second coupon on the key tag I use and get another one for the freezer being somewhat of a cheapskate. Also a Coupon for $2.99 one pound package of Oscar Mayer bacon, A good price too.

I sort of wonder how much it added to the cost to have closable roofs on these stadiums and what the Maintenance costs are per year.
At least You will not be lonely
Poor Ted doing that for Your Cat, Litter Box duty, Yup that would be the worst job.
I hope all Your chores went easily.
I see that Your hopes were dashed by the Patriots
Good Luck finding the car with only the features You want, dealers tend to load them with high profit margin features.
