    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and No Money found. The Temperature out the door was 50. The rain in the forecast for today has not yet arrived, It is due sometime this morning OTOH there was a light mist in the air.

    Good morning,

    Today I went to lunch with a friend for her investment dinner. It turned out to be a good thing as legally there are still some things I need to do I may not have thought about. So at least it was not a waste of time, especially as I could not eat the mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, fried chicken apple pie, ice cream and pecan pie. Dodged a bullet there. (unhappily!). I did have salad, pork roast and turnips. (nice buffet!) o:)
    Hi Jan
    What a surprise with all the High carb foods, Not really, they are quick and easy to prepare.

    Is the unhappily part the Turnips or did You use salad dressing ?

    Nothing wrong with free foods and learning something at the same time. The first thing that popped into my mind when You said Investment Dinner was that she was being invested into a position or something like the VFW or Knights of Columbus.
    We are expecting some storms during the nite. Hopefully not as bad as La., Miss., and Tenn are being hit. They look kind of wicked anyway on our new limited radar.

    I am supposed to meet a friend for lunch Tuesday if the weather has passed. That is about 20 miles away, so do not want to be driving in bad weather. Hopefully it will just be wet by then..

    I got phone calls from everyone I knew, so accomplished absolutely nothing at the house. It is kind of piling up a little. Just can not win. I am sure I would be missing these people and their various stories, but also love some peace and quiet! :#

    Interesting articles once again. You sure do find them!!

    Still trying to catch up on the humor!! Some real gems in there and got some good chuckles!!

    Have a great day!! ...Jan
    I miss hearing some of the stories Dad and his brothers used to tell from when they growing up :(

    As long as the house does not look like a hoarder lives there so what a little clutter is normal IMO.

    I may have mentioned that many of the news I link are things my brothers finds, I filter out the Political Stuff since most forums Politics are forbidden.

    Enjoy the latest humor

    Update on that school situation. Multiple witnesses stepped forward...it was not an assault. She consented, but lied to try to avoid getting in trouble with parents and school. The boy was expelled...his second time getting caught having sex during school. I hope she gets expelled for false police report!

    Hi!

    That is just awful Val. I was so innocent at 14, still riding my bike and skating. I would just hate dealing with any of that. So sad. Very troubling he might hold a grudge. Sure hope not!!

    Interesting articles, Roger. I did not miss hearing all the pre election mumbles and voting day mumbles. I can sure wait and read it for morning!!

    The unhappily part of my sentence was actually that I was not having those carbs, lol...I was not very clear!! LOL, just sorry!!

    Did well at the Chinese place. Going to a sandwich place Weds, but hoping to get a nice salad or rib eye. Really want the sandwich with bread..

    Our rain was a small line of weakening storms last nite. We lucked out.

    I can not believe--no change! Maybe the economy is worse than I thought!!

    Take care all!!...Jan :)

    Hi
    I'm home and did not walking as I decided to take a day off. The Temperature outside the door was 48 degrees. The rain forecast for yesterday arrived a little early, today is supposed to be better.

    I suspect that there will a deadlock in Washington due to the election results, I hope I am wrong and the the Democrat House and the Republican Senate find a way to work together.

    That is so sad.

    Hi Val
    Thanks for the offer, You remember correctly, I use a iPod Nano. I am not familiar with the shuffle, a little research is needed. If it plays everything shuffled around that would work for music, not so well with audiobooks. You offered it to Em ?

    I will be restarting the computer shortly, Norton wants a restart to apply a update.

    That is just sad for both of them. There should be some punishment for the false report I agree. Not to smart for the boy either, Does he end up as a registered sex offender now ?
    The Teenage Boy was lucky that witnesses came forward, it is easier to sit on the sidelines and do nothing.

    I would think something should have been done the 1st time that happened.

    Kid gloves for under 18s, He should be very careful since that is ending shortly from what You said.

    I hope Your daughter is handling this well.

    Hi Jan
    Times were different when I was that age too, many of the things kids get up to were nowhere to be found.

    I did read the unhappily as meaning a different thing :wink:

    Congratulations on doing well at a Chinese eatery, that is a tough thing to do. A nice Steak and Salad would be good.

    BTW someone posted this elsewhere so I am passing it on.

    Em plays music on her iPhone, so doesn’t want thie Shuffle. The boy will not be prosecuted, so no legal issues. I’m livid that the girl would make a false accusation to save herself. The boy’s first known offense was last year, with a freshman...that girl has hated Em since 4th grade...we had hoped they’d get expelled then, but they didn’t. That encounter was caught on security cameras! I don’t know if this one is on tape or not.

    Hello!!

    We got about 1 inch of rain today. I moved in all my plants I could to prepare for some low 40's Sat. and a freeze next week.They are much happier outside, so I hope they do okay.

    I was good at the sports bar we went to for lunch. Skipped the breads and sandwiches and ordered a Mediterranean salad which was really good, lettuce, olives, feta cheese, cucumbers, tomato and onion. It did hit the spot. My veggies taste extra good, I guess due to no sugar for me. It allows the natural sugar of the veggie to really taste good!

    I think I am actually home Thursday and Friday, at least during the day. Looking forward to that!!

    That keto recipe looked good. I have seen him somewhere before. Probably from facebook and a keto site.

    Yep, an even more divided Congress... :|

    Val, just unreal about that kid. They do tend to not take care of a problem till it becomes a too much bigger problem, sometimes. I am amazed at people. Em does not look the kind of person someone should be hating for so many years..what is wrong with people?

    That is why I like animals...people not so much at times!

    Take care! Unusual for you to take a day off, Roger!! Hope you are not coming down with something!!

    Have a good Thursday!!...Jan PS...too many calories for supper..should have checked, lol...

    Hi Val
    that is the difference between myself and younger people. All I want my phone to do is make and receive phone calls, No playing video, no sound playing, No Video or still images :smiley:

    I wonder why the girl hates em ?

    Your comment about tape makes me wonder, I suspect that most security systems are now digital. I used to assemble custom multi channel digital systems for customers. Even the news broadcasts call it taping :wink:

    I think I might have a use for the shuffle, Thanks for the offer. If You send it can I reimburse You for the shipping cost ?

    Have a Good Day

    I have Posted more Humor, Enjoy

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and No Money found. The Temperature out the door was 35. Wednesday and Thursday were both dry days, now we appear to be having two wet days with a possibility of Thunderstorms in the Evening. and raining Saturday Morning :(

    Yesterday I took advantage of the nice warm day and went to the ShopRite grocery store and redeemed our $400 over a period of time for the free ShopRite Turkey up to 22 pounds. Since I found one that was 22.10 pounds I did have to pay the tiny extra for the .10 pound :smiley:
    We saved $32.78 plus the 15 cents I paid if I am reading the receipt right. We both figured get the biggest we could get in the free 18 to 22 pound turkey to have plenty of leftovers.
    It now resides in the basement Freezer alongside my NS foods and other items. Next Item to be purchased for Thanksgiving will be my Brother Buying Fresh Cranberries for Homemade Cranberry Sauce, Bread Stuffing Mix, Potatoes, Celery, Black Olives, Sweet Gherkins and Carrots to go on a relish Dish. To be followed by Whipping Cream and Pumpkin Pie ingredients.

    Hi Jan
    It is mostly cloudy outside and I expect it to get worse as the day progresses due to the weather forecast.
    Wednesday and Thursday were really nice, Today and tomorrow since since today's rain extends into the daytime morning hours not so much. Yesterday I actually had the front door onto the closed in porch open getting some fresh air through the jalousie window or louvre window used in the porch.

    I hope they taste good, Mine arrive today, If they taste OK I may spring for these to try too.

    Miracle Noodle Gluten Free Ready to Eat Meals, Variety Pack, 4

    Vietnamese Chicken Soup - a Miracle Noodle family favorite
    Preparation:

    1. In a 3 quart saucepan, bring chicken stock to a boil over medium-high heat. Add garlic, ginger and cardamom and let simmer for 10 minutes.

    2. Drain the water out of the package, rinse the noodles in cool water for 10-15 seconds (the konjac plant aroma is normal and will go away fully in the next step). Put in boiling water for 2 minutes. Then dry the noodles by placing in a non-oiled pan on medium heat until dry. Divide noodles into two bowls.

    3. Add chicken to stock and let cook for 5 minutes (until completely cooked).

    4. Pour soup into bowls over the noodles. Divide bean sprouts between two soup bowls then top each serving with half the scallions and chili sauce.

    5. Garnish bowls with a slice of lime and chopped cilantro.

    Ingredients
    3 cups organic reduced sodium chicken stock
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 tsp minced ginger
    1/4 tsp cardamom
    (1) 7oz bag of Miracle Noodle Angel Hair Noodles
    1 boneless, skinless chicken breast sliced crosswise into 1/8 slices
    1 cup bean sprouts
    2 scallions, sliced into 1/4 inch pieces
    1 tsp chili sauce (optional)
    1/2 lime, cut in half
    1/4 cup chopped cilantro
    1/3 cup of mushrooms-any variety (optional)
    1 thinly slice chili pepper with seeds removed (optional)


    I fell like I can experiment now that I have essentially reduced my credit cards down to where I can pay them off every month and all that I need to pay is some recurring charges and whatever I try to see if I like it :wink:

    Sneaky Calories is a understatement, I hope putting the meal in first works.

    Lucky baby to be sure.

    Forgot to answer why that girl who had sex at school has hated my kid since 4th grade...that girl is a manipulative drama queen and my kid called her out on it, and doesn’t play into it. That scenario her been consistent for 6 years so far! Lol.
    Those are two things that are on my dislike list also. I doubt that girl will ever change, I pity anyone who she dates or marries.

    Thank You for the Answer

    Morning!

    My noodles and a grow light come in on Sat. That recipe above looks really good too. I have practically no indoor light, so I plan to pile all my philodendrons on the piano for the winter and put up the grow light. Hopefully they will be happy little campers!!

    I have lost no more weight but I have lost more inches. I can live with that. I have had one or two little things not strict keto, but have pretty much adhered to it. I like the energy and clear head and not too many cravings. Every now and then though! I almost stopped for a Big Mac and was going to ditch the bun, but I knew I had food at home I should eat just to be economical. I liked I had the thought and fortitude to ditch that bun if needed, lol...

    What a mess of the voting in Fla. Good grief!! The wildfire pictures from Cal. were just awful. It affects so many, and just at the holidays. Though no time is good losing everything. Do we realize how many people are displaced in the country right now...aside from the usual which is bad enough. So grateful for my little acre!

    Well, my plants are ready for the weather coming. Still need to do a little outside, but there is a light rain at the moment..and I am rather slow!! May May has chased things and barked and played so she is snuggled in her bed.

    I am going to move my plants and then contemplate where all the pictures are going to have to go that were on the piano. Have you noticed work is never done, lol!! :#

    Take care all!! Have a good week end!! ...Jan :)

    I posted more humor a few seconds ago

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and No Money found. The Temperature out the door was 44. The rain in the forecast for Friday afternoon arrived, It did move out earlier than forecast. We hit 100% precip Friday too, I do not now if it rained into Saturday as the rain appeared to have ended early before 10PM Friday despite the earlier forecast that showed it going into Saturday morning. Better for me, it was only wet and even the trees did not drip on me while walking. I did take care not to step into puddles and tried to avoid walking through wet leaves on the sidewalks. Two reasons for that, I hate wet feet and I would not want to step on an uneven surface or a hidden branch under the leaves.

    The Halloween decorations are gone and I have started seeing Christmas lights this week.

    Hi Jan
    Mine arrived yesterday, I was a little surprised by the weight and that the foods were in a cardboard box inside the amazon box along with a potato peeler I ordered. Be careful opening the foods box, I was surprised that they are in plastic bags with water in the bag too. You would not want to slice those bags opening the box they are in.

    No lost weight but lost inches is a good thing to me that means fat being replaced by muscle.

    If stopping at McDonalds I would have gotten something like a double 1/4 pounder if they are still selling that. A big Mac although tasty is not good due to the three buns and special sauce. Even better that the Burger would be a Grilled Chicken and not breaded Chicken sandwich and ditch the bun.

    The Voting in Georgia appears to be just as bad, The person on the losing side by a small number of votes For the Governor is not giving up and that may end up with an automatic runoff election dragging out the suspense.

    California appears to be suffering a lot of serious fires this year, My brother has wondered out loud if someone is setting them.

    I have noticed that no matter what You do there is always something else waiting it's turn.

    Good Luck with that Grow Light

    Good morning,

    People are hanging onto their change, or do not have any! :# Plastic taking over?

    I should get my boxes today! Looking forward to it! Thank you for the warning! I will be careful opening it!!

    It is downright cold and damp here. Tonite gets colder and damper. All the way to Fla. Tough for recovery efforts;

    Not accomplishing as much as possible, but I am guessing it will wait on me! :D

    Priorities, I have to play with May May!!

    Good you are extra careful with the wet ground and leaves! They can be slippery little suckers and hid a multitude of things!!

    I would be bring that judge up on charges if I could. Childish and dangerous. People are crazy!!

    Do not work too hard!! Stay warm!!

    More humor has been posted FWIW

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and No Money found. The Temperature out the door was 30 degrees. Yesterdays wind is gone and it was not bad outside while walking.

    Last night was the first night of the season I left the heat running instead of turning it off upon retiring and back on after rising. From the weather forecast I think it will now be running 24 - 7 until spring.

    Yesterday I took a Stainless Steel pan, melted some butter in it and tossed in some Dried Sweet Corn left from last years crop, one it was done popping, a Dish with a paper towel for the grease AKA melted Butter, Salted to taste and a nice crunchy treat if likely not super low calorie. When I say popped I do not mean they pop like Popcorn they pop back up to slightly larger that the original kernel. I do have to keep the lid on so as not to get splattered with stings and is messy.

    Hi Jan
    I had not thought about that, it could be due in part to people using Credit or debit cards especially if they have one with rewards.

    I was hoping You would see the warning in time, I would hate to have You slice them open when You opened the Box.

    I am trying to decide. do I want to try the "Rice" in chicken broth with a sliced up carrot from the garden, yes I have been leaving them in the ground until I plan to use them as they will stay real fresh that way. Or try the "Rice in Cream of Mushroom or have my brother pick up a can of Cream of Chicken / Cream of Turkey.

    There are people still trying to recover from Super-storm Sandy's damage and that was in 2012, so sad. I hope Florida is luckier.

    That judge sounded like a petty minded person to me. I lost so Bleep You Texas is what came to mind.

    Have a Nice Day

    Hi. Was busy all yesterday with Rescue activities...today (Sunday), I'm working.

    Good morning!

    Some interesting stories above! 50 some % of kids on assistance sure seems like something is wrong. However, I also have to say, considering what I bring in a year, I think I am taxed way too much. I pay more now then when I was working and seem to be awfully penalized for putting away money and then using it. I would have done better to pay the taxes while working, instead of waiting while I am retired. of course, that is just me...

    Yes, I am assuming it will take 10 years or more to recover, and somethings are just lost for good.

    Glad you warned me on those noodles! Mine came in a box barely big enough for the bags, and that was the only box. The tape was holding it somewhat as there was a small gap in the top, but it was taped securely. I might have got one cut for sure, lol. Plan to try one Monday!

    We got to see the sun 2 days in a row!! Hallelujah! Almost did not recognize it, lol!

    That was a great turkey you scored for free by the way!! :)

    I trimmed bushes and trees yesterday, and can actually move though I am stiff. I was rather excited, but pooped!! Some parts of me sure felt older than the last time I did it!

    Val, you are so good to do the rescues when you work so hard! That is dedication!! <3

    Take care all!! ...Jan B)
