    There are several cities around the country that realize that Columbus was not the first one here, and that he was not all the good things he was cracked up to be. Heroes with clay feet.

    Hi All
    I had sad news yesterday. Shirl from the 100+ message thread who currently posted in it here and for quite a while in the old NutriSystems Forum thread has passed away.

    Obit from here:
    http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/news-herald/obituary.aspx?n=shirley-m-petrasko-bitsko&pid=176090020&fhid=2424

    I'm not feeling like posting today

    Hi Vix
    So true, I noticed that trees are starting to change colors. The Early ones are a nice bright Red. The One thing I miss due to the laws that forbid it is the smell of burning leaves. That smell always signaled Fall to me.

    Cheers

    I used to love the smell of burning leaves....yeah, they don't let you do that anywhere any more. I like the crispness in the air too. :)

    Hi Vix
    On the good side, I think it is anyway :)
    I was out to Walmart this morning and Picked up a inexpensive Digital Camera ($29 + tax) to carry with me when walking so I can take pictures of Halloween decorations and other interesting things.

    No choice on the, burning leaves darn it. The air has been crisp however.

    Have a Nice Day

    Always good to have a camera, Roger. I just use my phone now for quick pix.

    Hi Vix
    Links here to some pictures I took earlier, I did put them in the 50s thread, I included them here is anyone else is interested. I did a Quick edit on them, I had to load image editing software to get some of them straight, Oops :)

    Since there is no camera in my phone a $29 camera works for me. It sure ate up a 16Gb SD card when I had it set to 14.1 Megapixels. The 16Gb only held 4 at that resolution :( so I changed it during the walk to 8Mp.

    Cheers

    Good morning....cool pix, Roger. :) Even chillier this morning, but supposed to warm up a bit the rest of the week. I have some things to do around the house and need to go food shopping today. Only supposed to go into the high 40s today...ha, not used to it yet and feels really cold at 31!

    Hi Vix
    I hope this weather is not a indicator of the winter ahead.

    I am not used to this either. I was wearing double gloves and Earmuffs and the fingers were cold. maybe tomorrow I'll try a third layer of gloves :)

    Cheers

    Good morning!
    Frosty again here, supposed to get to the 50s today, then warmer til next weekend. We did go for a walk yesterday, but I put on a jacket, hat, scarf, and gloves! Was a bit chilly in the woods.
    Enjoy your day. :)

    Hi Vix
    We are supposed to warm up nicely starting Tuesday too. I have been thinking of getting a Hoodie to keep my neck warm during the winter. I wore earmuffs Yesterday & today so the ears were OK at least.

    Cheers

    Hoodies are good under a jacket because they fill up the space between your jacket and where a hat would be...if it's really cold, you can wear a hoodie and a hat! haha....looks funny, but warm. :smiley:

    Hi Kel
    The cars had frost on them yesterday too. Lucky I was not planning on going anywhere. In My Case I would have wasted a lot of gas letting it defrost by warming up.

    Good News regarding the lack of spots.

    Have a Nice Day at Work

    what are you making in clay class this time vix? :)

    i've been trying out all the frozen food that i managed to swash in my freezer when it showed up last week (BEFORE my shelf stable box - that will never happen again lol). so far i can't say that i've found anything i WOULDN'T order again :) have a few i want to see if i can cram a few extras in on though ;) LOL

    hope you're both having a great week :) have a wonderful weekend if i fall off the face of the earth again prior :)

    Good morning all!
    Kel, so good to see you back. :)
    Lynmar....hope you're ok!
    I've just been making little things in clay class...a spoon holder, some candle holders, some ornaments. I made a couple of small pumpkin candle holders for Halloween. I put them on a little table on my porch. They look cute. I need to find another good project. :)
    Off to painting class this morning.
    Enjoy your day, everyone.

    Hi Kel
    I think You would like the frozen Desserts sampler. Most of it is good and some is lower calorie such as the Orange Cream Bar @ 90 calories and the Reformulated Fudge bar @ 100 Calories.

    Don't fall of the edge of the earth You could get hurt :)
    BTW did You Know there is a flat earth society? http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/cms/
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_flat_Earth_societies
    Based on his conclusions derived from the Bedford Level experiment, Rowbotham published a 16-page pamphlet, Zetetic Astronomy, which he later expanded into a 430-page book, Earth Not a Globe, in which the Earth is a flat disc centred at the North Pole and bounded along its southern edge by a wall of ice (Antarctica), with the Sun and Moon 3,000 miles (4,800 km) and the "cosmos" 3,100 miles (5,000 km) above Earth.

    Cheers

    Hi
    A Cornucopia would work for this time of year, I need to get into the basement and bring up the Ceramic Pumpkin from on top of the old wardrobe down there that holds some clothes too. That Pumpkin is one Mom did years ago and fired in my brothers kiln when he had it. Eventually it was donated to a good cause.

    Cheers

    Hey Roger :) i upgraded this past shipment to the "uniquely yours" or whatever lets me pick frozen items now too so lots of new stuff to try and attempt to fit in the apartment freezer lol. so far so good.... wish they had a few other "stuffed chicken" options for dinner, i've always like that kind of stuff. match it up with my loaded taters from lunch and a bunch of veggies and viola! dinner LOL.

    trying to do better about eating every few hours (when i actually feel hungry anyways)

    hope you both have a wonderful weekend!!!!! :smiley:
