Tomorrow Em and I will be gone all day...driving to Corpus Christi to look at the university. He’s delightful to live with. With each day he’s getting more playful and confident. He’s great at fetch. Our weather was below freezing then jumped to 90 degrees. Supposed to rain tomorrow. I wish we could take Charlie with to the university. But no dogs allowed in buildings.
The more You say about the way Charlie is reacting the more I am positive those people do not deserve a dog, What a Shame.
Good Luck with the Day away, However family comes first so good luck with him.
That is some wild weather, How do You dress for swings like that ?
Stay Safe and Dry

Hi JanGood morning!
The more you talk about Charlie, Val,the gladder I am he is not with those people!!
That weather sounds way crazy, much worse than ours!! Hope you and Em enjoy your day!! 
Love the Wesh cake chick. Happy thing she is, and interesting accent. I hear mostly Welsh guys with more brogue, though she has it too. Just different and interesting.
Marathon Day (church...)... I am beat. And with you about that time change. Just ridiculous
. I say split the difference and lets pretend that is the time!!
Be careful walking!!!! Yep, it is sure Monday, lol... ...Jan
I agree with You, Those are not people that should be near a dog. I do sort of wonder if it was only one or more of them that were the problem, sort of like it only takes one rotten apple to spoil the barrel full.
Those Welsh Cakes looked so good I posted before I ever watched that video
Please just leave it one or the other year round, drop the no longer needed time seasonal time changes.
Two more clocks to update the time on, I will need a stool to get to one or a short ladder where it hangs over the door to the dining room in the kitchen.
Have a Nice Day

A glorious morning!!
...You found a nickel!! Yay!!
Glad you are on the receiving side of some better weather!! It is raining here. Probably we will get around 2 inches between the week-end showers and today. I put my plants out.. I just could not stand it. In a week they will probably get carries to the wintering box and protected again. We will I am sure still have another bout with cold weather..
Wow, the tabs for my meds from Chewie were 66 dollars compared to 105 dollars. I may need to skip my loyalty to the vet and but from there..A friend said her vet matched the price for her. Hmmm...
The info on Chernobyl was interesting, though no surprise. I do not know how these officials live with themselves. A friend spent some time in Russia years ago and how sad his tails were of the reg. people living there. Crumbling factories, roads, machines with no one to fix them or no one who even remembered how to do it. These people feed them their own food they gathered for the guests. All they had. And most of it not fit for consumption. They as guests choked it down to not hurt these poor people's feelings.. So sad...
I am really behind doing now. It just does not feel the right time...So annoying. The only good part is when it willl stay lighter much longer ...
Just crazy!! Careful climbing..Not my favorite thing at all..esp. with lightbulbs, lol...

I chuckled when Roger asked how i dress for the huge temperature swings. I rarely leave the house...so i pretty much wear the same thing day in, day out. 🤣
I liked Texas A&M Corpus Christi. You are allowed to always be barefoot!!! (Reminds me of growing up in New Zealand...barefoot everywhere, including school. My teacher was even barefoot.

Hi
I'm back home from walking and no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 37 degrees. The forecast for a 5 day stretch of nice weather started this past Monday.
When I was walking this morning there was a intermittent wind that caused a wind chill and some wind noise.

I do not think we are past some days of freezing weather here for at least a Month and a Half.
Stay Dry. At least You have a wintering box.
I intend to try and get a price match from the cable company since I can get Cable, Fios and Satellite for TV and Internet.
I have seen TV specials on Chernobyl and the surrounding area. It seems that Radioactive animals have been spreading out into areas outside the containment area.The info on Chernobyl was interesting, though no surprise. I do not know how these officials live with themselves. A friend spent some time in Russia years ago and how sad his tails were of the reg. people living there.

The weird thing is that despite the Russian reputation that the Rockets to the space station work as do their Military Aircraft. I have heard that the average Russian Citizen carries a String bag in case they come across something to buy.
I suspect that You have run across news that starting at a future point a Passport will not be enough to get a traveler into the European Union.
I do my climbing like that when My brother is on hand, Just in case.

I made corned beef and cabbage (no potatoes)... which really hit the spot.
I have to dress appropriately for the out the door temperatures as I wear shorts and a T-shirt all year and those would not work for at least 2/3 of the year.
I would think that going barefoot could lead to the spread of a foot fungus.
My brother asked me yesterday what I thought of having potatoes with the corned beef Sunday. I said no potatoes works for me, He then said Cabbage or Sprouts and Potatoes are the traditional way to have the Corned Beef.
Corned Beef and Cabbage should be a good meal to stay Keto and low calorie.
I wonder why Your Daughter was uninterested ? Safety is not to be underrated.

I will miss eating the Potatoes also, I lobe them Boiled, Baked, As French Fries or Home Fries however they are High Carb and Thus a forbidden fruit so to speak.
I like Egg Rolls, However they are calorie bombs due to the wrap and being deep fried. I could pick them up and discard the wrap but why bother as they would not be the same.
It sounded like a nice place to become educated so why ? Who knows.
Good Luck at the Doctors. I hope You get better rested for the rest of the week

Good morning,
My dr appt was kind of a bust..kind of not. He saw me too early though he said we could do it. (this is my colonoscopy dr.) I laughed and said it was a busy month especially for my daughter who drives me. So we opted to do it in July yearly. It worked out as I will not have to worry about her scheduling, and my prep will not be during income tax time. Worked for me!!
I have been bad and gotten off keto. I have gained 6 lbs and need to get back..all carbs and not good ones.
Just too many cheats and hard to stop as going to restaurants and eating keto gets tiring..as all the "good stuff is off limits, lol..I will get back on though..almost ready but I plan to have pasta Thursday first...
We have a cold spell coming on Friday, but it had been warm and in the 70's. Cloudy though...only one day of sun.
My yard needs attention. I need a day home, lol...When I get one, it is usually raining!!
Scary about those Boeing planes being grounded in the news!!

Hi
I'm back home from walking and no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 42 degrees. That made me happy as I could shed one layer while walking, that layer was a moderately heavy Sweatshirt. OTOH I was out with my brother doing some running around and I spied 3 corroded Pennies So I did find three cents yesterday late in the morning.
Before I forget Yesterday as I was sitting in the Living room eating my pre walk NS snack so as not to be putting coffee into a empty stomach I saw movement out of the corner of my eye and sure enough there was a Walking Appetite AKA Deer crossing the lawn. Then today on my way to pick up today's part Decaf and part regular coffee I had four of them crossing lawns ahead of me.

By to early as in time of day or that he had not reviewed the test ?
Speaking of taxes, How are Yours doing ?
Don't feel bad, Yesterday while running around We stopped at the ShopRite Grocery Store and I at junk from their hot food bar that was more than I should have eaten. It was so much what as the quantity I ate
0.11 of the Macaroni and Cheese, Not to bad there.
0.22 of a Chicken Chunks and with Noodles where I selected mostly Chicken and very few noodles, Not to bad either.
0.43 that was two Salisbury Steaks in a brown gravy, Bland too.
and last but not least 0.69 of BBQ Chicken Wings, too many and to much sauce.
Plus a container of Chicken Broccoli from the Chinese Take out counter in the store.
I hate myself for buying and eating the wings and Chinese The scale told me I was up 1.75 pounds from yesterday morning. I'm hoping that a lot of that is water weight and disappears as fast as it appeared.
There is only one effective trick for dealing with restaurants and that not so easy trick is to avoid them as if they would give You the plague
Rain in the forecast for Friday here and supposedly we will be hitting the 60s today.
I did not find that the grounding was scary, I thought it was a over reaction to be honest.
From Here I suspect a issue with maintanence.

GARA-BOKKA, Ethiopia (Reuters) - The Ethiopian Airlines plane that crashed killing 157 people was making a strange rattling noise and trailed smoke and debris as it swerved above a field of panicked cows before hitting earth, according to witnesses.
Half a dozen witnesses interviewed by Reuters in the farmland where the plane came down reported smoke billowing out behind, while four of them also described a loud sound.
BTW You likley will not see the trailing smoke part on news in the US.

Good morning!
Spent an hour in the bathroom with tornado warnings. It is getting to be a regular thing and tornado season starts in April. Luckily the tornado was radar indicated and did not touch down. It did do some property damage a little north and east of us. Mostly trees, a few roofs, and a cell tower but no one was hurt and damage was minimal, though I am sure scary. I need to bring in my plants for cold. We are sure mixed up weather wise!
What adorable puppies!! They are so cute. I love that there are more rescues, but just wish people could be more responsible. The intake of dogs here is just staggering, as I am sure it is everywhere. People.....
Taxes should be turned in today but I doubt I will make it. After that I just need to sign an extension. This always happens. I just have so much going on in March as well as procrastination...I never quite make it, lol...I keep getting closer to their deadline however. I am not sure other tax people have a deadline, but I do like who I use...so hate to switch.

if I said that handling the logistics of all those dogs would give me a headache would You believe me ?
Depending on the age of the computer is it worth fixing ? That would also depend on whether You have a good computer repair place nearby and I will admit to a prejudice against the Geek Squad having ended up fixing computer that they had touched first. For Software they depend on a Magic Disk, I say that based on previous experiences. Hardware They are not as good with if it goes beyond replacing a failed hard disk and even then they always expected the customer to supply recovery media. The above is in the past since I stopped fixing computers at the end of October of 2012.
Either way good luck with the computer.
BTW could You use Your phone with a online tax company such as Turbo Tax ?
I think if it were me I would be in court, just in case.
The program has been a problem since January, Yikes. At least it is finally being shut down.
To bad it took this long, Part of being a good boss is listening as I see it.
Have a Good Day

I suspect that is a weakness of the radar systems they can show where better than if the Tornado has touched down. The Cell tower is not the one Your phone uses ?
Why would taxes need to be turned in now and not until April 15 ?
When I was working I had more than one accountant as a customer and it seemed to be their MO to file for lots of extensions. Which is strange to me as when You file for an extension You need to pay any taxes that will be due. If only a refund than it is simpler.
What is wrong with Procrastination, I deny that is a problem as a card carrying member of the Procrastination group
Good Luck with the Keto, I am staring to have a craving for Chinese. Unfortunately lots of the tasty are high carb So What to do ?
Congratulations

Good morning!
Yep, the radar shows winds aloft. Actually you can see a debris ball even on my computer radar. I think when the meteorologist puts on their reflectivity they can often see it better and with experience they can often tell. sometimes I think it is hard depending on how the winds are blowing. I was better at the older software when you could just see the hooks better. We lived in La. and I could spend the extra time outside watching before the weather people announced it or the sirens blew. I still take these warnings very seriously in Al. because they are so unpredictable here. The last few come over my house, where they used to usually be north and south. I am not so fond of this new pattern. I actually got some pillows this time...after that crazy EF -4 hit a few weeks ago. The cell tower that was downed was not mine. It was the same storm but had traveled about 20 miles from me.
My tax people like stuff turned in by March 15. They guarantee filing before April 15. After March 15, they just have an extension filed in case they are not done by April 15th. I assume they do a lot of taxes..Mine are simple, but I do not understand taxes and dividends especially from stock so I have someone do it. They charge the same as Turbo tax which confused me when last I used it. A question from my stocks left me paying either zero or 3 thousand. I went with the zero, (as the year before..could have been wrong..
) but I usually pay around 3 thousand now. I assume it is the difference from what I pull out of those funds which is counted as taxable income. I pay tax now when I pull it out so it is slightly better at tax time.. But Uncle Sam gets a huge chunk nonetheless.I hate it..

Goid luck with the weather to both of you! I love the uneventful weather here. Roger- I completely hate Geeksquad and Bedt Buy...but i needed a quick solution. Bought new computer and they are pulling stuff off the dead one. Today’s issue was they changed the phone number on my account to my work number. We all know how non-permanent that is. Literally 10 calls to get that fixed. I think it’s fixed but we’ll see.
Charlie is curled up on my lap. Love this little dude. Next Sunday we’re going to Austin to meet a potential adopter. Had extensive emails with her and I think this will be a great fit. She might beed me to keep him till next month because she’s about to move. That’s fine by me.
Oh...that boss wasn’t listening. He didn’t understand the plan. And now it’s a mess (bigger). I had nightmares last night about him. All night. I feel horrid today.1 -

Hi
I'm back home from walking and no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 34 degrees. The walking was fine as there is no breeze blowing
The weather forecast is saying that there is a chance of flakes for Monday, If I was and I am not a betting man I would bet that there are none tomorrow.
Something I saw on the Cable News Channel this morning.

Astronomer says aliens might zap black holes with lasers to travel the galaxy
The idea is a futuristic upgrade of a technique NASA has used for decades.
I wore a similar hat while walking today with the exception that the hat band says "Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Hello JanGood morning!
Yep, the radar shows winds aloft. Actually you can see a debris ball even on my computer radar. I think when the meteorologist puts on their reflectivity they can often see it better and with experience they can often tell. sometimes I think it is hard depending on how the winds are blowing. I was better at the older software when you could just see the hooks better. We lived in La. and I could spend the extra time outside watching before the weather people announced it or the sirens blew. I still take these warnings very seriously in Al. because they are so unpredictable here. The last few come over my house, where they used to usually be north and south. I am not so fond of this new pattern. I actually got some pillows this time...after that crazy EF -4 hit a few weeks ago. The cell tower that was downed was not mine. It was the same storm but had traveled about 20 miles from me.
That would be scary to me where the last few passed over the house. They are so unpredictable everywhere. You do not want to be anywhere near an EF 4
I'm not sure what older software You mean, would that be software the looks at info from weather sites ? Computer radar ?
That makes sense once You explain it that they want things by the 15th of March. Since my return is very simple I can use the free TurboTax website and they E-File both state and Federal income tax forms.My tax people like stuff turned in by March 15. They guarantee filing before April 15. After March 15, they just have an extension filed in case they are not done by April 15th. I assume they do a lot of taxes..Mine are simple, but I do not understand taxes and dividends especially from stock so I have someone do it. They charge the same as Turbo tax which confused me when last I used it. A question from my stocks left me paying either zero or 3 thousand. I went with the zero, (as the year before..could have been wrong.. ) but I usually pay around 3 thousand now. I assume it is the difference from what I pull out of those funds which is counted as taxable income. I pay tax now when I pull it out so it is slightly better at tax time.. But Uncle Sam gets a huge chunk nonetheless.I hate it.. I try to make it on just my social pay and AF retirement, but it rarely covers enough for extra large vet bills, car and house insurance and the like. I have tried to economize.

I did have a question when the money went into the funds was it a tax deferred until withdrawal retirement fund ? If the taxes were paid on the money that went in then as I understand it only the interest would be taxable ?
I had held onto my landline until Verizon turned it off as a part of their plan to get a toe in the door with their Fios service which has Phone, TV and Internet available. That is when I went with the cheapest plan on Consumer Cellular. BTW did You get a Senior Discount from them ?
How so is the Church Expensive ? I have spent way to much on Takeout foods and eating out too
I do not recall the Local Chinese Buffets having Chicken Skewers, hmm. OTOH the one especially has lots of different seafood, not that I eat seafood. That one has Roast Beef, Roast Ham sliced to order. Strangely enough around here they also have slices of Pizza, French Fries and other non Chinese foodsWhen I do the Chinese buffet I always do chicken skewers, some crab, broccoli, shrimp, chicken wings, green beans, ribs, and maybe some fruit, several times. I shake off the sauce as much as I can. I skip the egg rolls, wontons, rice and low mein..all my favorite of course!! Good luck!!
Watch the wind..we are having it, too!! ...Jan
That is a smart way to go Avoiding those Calorie bombs knows as egg rolls, wontons, rice and low mein
I hope to eat well today, Mainly Fresh cooked Corned Beef and Cabbage and avoid the starchy foods my brother wants to also have such as boiled Potatoes and Irish Soda Bread to name two of them, Wish me luck
Have a Nice Holiday Dinner

Part of my issue with the Geek Squad is that I do not trust them to not look at what the pull off or store it safely, It is hard to pull things off without at a minimum looking at the names of the files.
How in the heck did they even get Your work number and then change it, At a minimum they should have room in their software for a primary and a secondary number or as my old Cell phone names them Mobile, Home, Work 1, work 2.
Good Luck with the adoption, I see You would not mind holding onto Charlie somewhat longer.
You really need to shift to another department if possible where You work. A bigger mess, Yikes now what did he do, make changes without thinking them trough ?
I hope You have a Good Day today and have a nice St. Patrick's Day meal to relax with.
Roger
