    Hi
    I went walking today. It was around A nice day when I left and warming rapidly. Today is supposed to be in the upper 50s to 60 for a high temperature :) Tomorrows forecast is for rain. I got a later start than usual due to the change to Daylight Saving Time.

    I just realized I missed posting earlier and now I have no time :)
    I will have to update and respond to Your Questions tomorrow.

    Have a Good Sunday Evening

    Hi
    I'm back for a few minutes while I have a little time waiting for my brother :)

    My Daffodils are not even near ready yet, I can just see the tips of the flower buds peeping out of the soil.

    Have a Good Evening

    Good morning!
    Roger, I think we have several types of daffodils....some are blooming, some are only leaves at the moment. :)
    Yucky weekly forcast for walking!
    Hope you have a good day. :)

    Hi Vix
    I agree regarding the forecast, That is why I am here right now instead of outside walking. I even made Coffee.
    What a difference the brand makes in them too, Mine only takes a few minutes, my Brothers cheapo one takes 20 minutes to brew
    a pot of coffee :) I started mine after his and his was still brewing when I filled my thermos and came in here.

    I was looking out the living room window and watched a squirrel digging in the mulch under the window.
    I do not know what it was looking for as I did not see it find anything.

    I am hoping the rest of the week is better weather-wise

    Hi
    Here it is Friday and almost palm Sunday.

    FWIW I delayed my order again, now it should close to changes on the 27th, Easter Sunday
    unless I look in the cupboard and Freezer and decide I should delay it even more.

    Have a Rally Nice Day

    Hi Roger,
    Seems like you're doing well switching to maintenance...good for you!
    I'm stuck again (maintaining 20-30 pounds over where I want to be!) I have the last of the pain med to take tonight, hoping maybe that was holding me back.
    We're supposed to get a little snow Sunday.
    Have plans tomorrow to meet up with friends at a winery. Not exactly on plan, but I'm sure it will be lots of fun.
    Hiya Lynmar and Kel....hope you're both ok and doing something fun!
    Have a good day, everyone. :)

    Hi Vix
    I did put in for my goal bear as I am between what the internet shows as goal and what my doctor says is good.
    I am hoping to lose a little more OTOH if not I am OK where I am at. I can now walk easily, go up & down the
    stairs to the basement without having to do one step at a time and being out of breath.
    I can now shop at Walmart for many clothing items and not have to go to the Big & Tall store :) So I am happy.
    It took me over two years to get here and now to be sure to stay here.

    I still have another NutriSystem order coming up that I have been pushing back.
    I just realized I had some older NutriSystem snacks I overlooked,
    9 days of the Pound Cake, Chocolate Cake, Chocolate Brownie and Carrot Cake They are just past their use by date,
    Being cheap I will be eating them as I am sure they are OK as they are just past the use by date.
    So now I need to push back my delivery even further due to finding them, having plenty of
    Breakfast, Lunch & Dinners and now Snacks as I found a bunch of others at the same time. OOPS!

    Enjoy You visit

    Hi
    What a Nice looking day outside, Just working on capturing Record Albums and Videos today.
    Then Converting the Videos and Authoring them for DVDs.

    When walking I see that the Spring Bulbs are blooming and some of the flowering trees are in bloom, including the Tulip Trees.
    Have a Great Day

    Hi Roger, it was cold and gray this morning, but the sun came out, and it warmed up a bit. I did some more work on my clay pitcher...the bottom didn't hold, so I reworked it. Will see how it looks next week. Also made a sort of odd bird house. If they don't crack, I will put them in the kiln to bisque next week. We keep busy, don't we. :)
    Have a good night. :)

    Hi Vix
    Our Tuesday and Today were/are good. Odd in what way? FWIW I did not know You could rework clay creations?
    Busy is good, I think.

    Have a great Day

    As long as the clay hasn't been fired, you can rework it....sometimes it will fix and sometimes, it'll just crack again. I don't know why. I know it shrinks as it dries. I try to get the parts that need repairing pretty damp, and then hope for the best.
    The new birdhouse I'm making is a sort of round flat bottomed house with a roof that peaks, but comes down on all sides....it looks sort of like a jungle hut. ;)
    I think busy is good.
    Have a good night...hope you sleep better.

    Hi Vix
    Thank You for the information. The Birdhouse design sounds interesting, Are You planning to paint it like a Jungle Hut too?

    Yup, Spring is sprung!

    Have a Good Day

    I'm not really sure how I'm going to paint it yet. I know I'll try for something bright and cheerful. :)

    Hi Vix
    I am now off to the backyard to help my brother plant the several varieties of onion plants
    that the mailman delivered last night.
    I am still waiting for the delivery of the Blackberry & Raspberry plants that were ordered at the same time :)

    Have a Great Weekend

    That sounds great Roger...love berries. :) (and onions are good too!)
    I think the only edible plant we have so far is the mint I planted last year. I will probably pick up some herbs, in a few weeks. They are easier to grow because I can just keep them in pots.
    Have a Happy Easter. Hope the bunny is good to you. :)

    Hi Vix
    I like Your Picture :)

    My brother ordered Yellow, Red and White onions.

    Fresh Mint right off of the plant smells s good if You crush a little of it.
    We used to have it growing all over the yard and now it seems to be completely gone :(

    Have a Great Easter

    Windy, but warmer here today.
    Will be going to Charleston next week, so may miss the snow here, or will be driving to the airport in snow. :*

    Hi Vix
    Today is 13 degrees cooler than yesterday. That made it much more comfortable under the Rain gear than it was yesterday
    when it was near 70 when I went outside walking.

    Later overnight into Sunday they are talking high wind warnings with wind gusts up to 60 MPH.

    Good Luck on Your trip
    Roger

    Thanks, Roger. It'll be nice to get away for a little while.
    Sounds like great walking weather today. Have a good night and a wonderful Sunday. :)

    Hi Vix
    Well I was woken up last night slightly after midnight by loud Thunder, Then later on I could hear the wind picking up :)
    Here is a shortened repeat of a post I did in another message.
    It is really windy today, Wind Chill is somewhat bitter too, I wore my ersatz wind breaker the Lightweight rain jacket:)
    When walking into the Wind it slowed me to a crawl until it would drop off for a minute or two. 8300+ Steps today.

    Hopefully Your weather is better than mine.

    Have a Really Good Sunday
    Roger
