Hi all.
Glad you are enjoying your mini vacation, Irene.
Went walking today. Twice. First around the park, then we went to downtown Frederick. It's fun, lots of odd little shops.0 -
Good morning....it's snowing here...that's a surprise!
Happy Sunday, everyone.0 -
Hi
I went out walking today and did 8.8K steps Plus 1 Cent, The temperature was 35 degrees Vs 32. The road and sidewalk conditions were good overall. I lost 2.5 pounds of what had to be water weight since yesterday morning.
The forecast yesterday was for Rain, Snow or a Mix depending on where You are in the Metropolitan area. We had a light drizzle yesterday and they had snow in northern NJ. The weather seems to have avoided the area where I am
I sliced up some of the Corned Beef yesterday and plan to use 2 ounces on a slice of Rye Cut in half with a touch of spicy brown Mustard for my mid morning snack. I will freeze much of the rest for use later. That should end up at 100 calories and a whopping 550g of Sodium
for the CB. I my also use Thousand Island Dressing instead of the Mustard, I can not decide which way to go and may not know until I actually do it. I'm off to vacuum seal some of the Corned Beef right now as a matter of fact.
Have a Great Sunday

Hi VixGood morning. Cloudy here and 36 with a high of 51 for today, 40% chance of rain.
Jo, my brother used to have an MG midget when I was in high school a zillion years ago. I remember he used to push it down the hill and jump in to get it started! It was a cool car, other than that. I guess he didn't want to pay to get it fixed! The club sounds like fun, have a great time.
One of the politicians got criticized for saying top of the morning when meeting with Irish diplomats. The news said it wasn't an Irish saying. It was in a lot of old movies!
Roger that sounds like some feast! I think our bodies get more sensitive as we get more accustomed to lighter food. I don't know what I'm going to do today to get some exercise.
We walked around the mall yesterday, and I found a organic food store. Good find! They have local produce and meats, and a good variety of more healthy processed foods.
Irene, hope you're enjoying your weekend in Browns Mill.
Happy Saturday, everyone.
I had a car that was somewhat like that. The generator was bad and the battery would run down to where we had to push start it to get home.
The Afternoon meal also left me craving more. Not a surprise I find that sweets have the effect on me.Joanne3366 wrote: »Roger-Hubby has an 1971 MG midget, that he has slowly been restoring.
Hi Joanne
I was wondering, I also wonder why the Midget did not occur to me ?
Have a Nice Day

Hi Again
How Nice that You did get out walking yesterday
Interesting in a way, It does confirm this mornings weather report that the Two Weather conditions went South and North of us instead of combining as they had originally thought they would. That is why My weather is looking really nice today.
Have a Good Sunday
Roger
BTW I just Vacuum Sealed and froze two 100 calorie serving of the Corned Beef and most of the left over Irish Soda Bread 0 -
Good morning, we had a awesome weekend hated to see it end.Yesterday we went and looked at pools we picked out one so now we have to get the permits for it they will build it in the back yard it is a round one and it is 21 feet around ,we were talking about getting a deck but Annie would have a hard time climbing up so we are getting stairs what is nice the stairs has a gate on it so no one can just get in it. I don't have to worry about Annie getting in when I am not outside with her the pool is deep so she will have to wear her safety vest . Well need to go to work hope you all have a great day0

Hi
I was out walking today and did 7.9K steps, The temperature was 35 degrees. The road and sidewalk conditions better overall, The Brook is running a little high from snow melt. I lost another 1 .25 pounds of what had to be mostly water weight since yesterday morning due to the amount of loss. One more pound to go to get back to my Friday Morning Pre St. Patrick's day meals.
I used 2 ounces of the Corned Beef between two 1/2 slices of Rye bread with Thousand Island Dressing yesterday for my mid morning snack. Nice and tasty too.
Have a Great Monday

Hi Irene
Interesting, They have safety vests for dogs, Something I had not though about.
You must have a large lot to put a 21 foot pool in it.
Today's high of 50 will be even nicer than Sunday and Sunday was a nice day.
Have a Nice Day

Someone is up and at it nice and early...
American Chocolate Week, I think I may actually celebrate that with 80 calories of Dark Chocolate. I seem to remember that Dark Chocolate is good for a person compared to Milk Chocolate or White Chocolate
Have a Pleasant Day despite having to Take Your Husband for a Shot

Good morning;
I have been cleaning and updating my book list in my computer. I skyped with my son and daughter-in-law this morning also. They are going to Copenhagen for 4 days.
Vix-Wow that is a lot of stuff going on this week...I think American Chocolate Week is my favorite.
Irene-Does the pool have a vinyl liner? Be careful that Annie doesn't make a hole in the liner with her claws.
Roger-congrats on taking off the St. Patty's day weight. I wish I could say the same. I have been struggling for the past few days. I got up determined to start fresh today, so far so good.
Enjoy your day.0 -
Hi all!
Chocolate day, and World Sparrow day are my favorites.
Good for you for getting your walk in, Roger.
Jo, your son and daughter-in-law sound like they are taking advantage of the nearness of other countries. Copenhagen must be very interesting. Norway just got first place for happiest country this year, but Denmark is still up there.
My car wouldn't start this morning! Luckily we have 2 cars, so were able to get my husband to his appointment. When we got home, I called our insurance and someone came over and jump-started the car, which I drove immediately in for service. So I am without a car for a day or 2. There were other things that needed to be done, so I asked them to fix it all (that's why it will take so long...and they don't have someone in today to do all of it.) I also felt pretty lucky that this happened while I was home and not stranded somewhere.0 -
Good morning, Jo I am pretty sure all liners are vinyl but not sure I have to look at the folder we have we have options so we need to go over them ,we need to get our paper work first for the permit and then we will go over the details on our paper that we got we have a lot of different choices. I have been getting my steps in and it sure was hot in work yesterday time to bring out the summer clothes. Vix I like your list the chocolate sounds good I have a couple of more weeks before I can have any I gave it up for lent. Jo sounds like a nice vacation your son is going to have. Roger i figured it wouldn't take you long to loose the weight great job on getting right back on track.0

Hi
I was out walking today and did 7.7K steps, The temperature was 43 degrees. I lost another 2 pounds of what had to be mostly water weight since yesterday morning due to the amount of loss. Now I am One pound under my Friday Morning Pre St. Patrick's day meals weight, Whee
I'll be brief, I need to work up a shopping list of groceries for my brother to take with him. So far I have a Cooked Turkey breast Half, Some Frozen Green & Yellow Beans with Carrots, Bananas and some Light & Fit Greek Yogurt and some fresh Baby Carrots.
Then Later today I'll work on digitizing some more of the 78RPM records, Yesterday I did one Album of them and some Audio cassettes.
Have a Great Tuesday

Hi Joanne
I wish I had a Book List, OTOH if I buy used books at the Library I do not worry when the occasional duplicate creeps in.
I have managed by going 100% NS Plan starting Saturday morning. That is what works for me.
Today so far is a 100 Calorie Protein Shake, Banana and to finish breakfast shortly a NS Frozen Cinnamon Roll.
Cheers

Hi Vix
If my Brothers truck did not start I would be blocked in the driveway with it in the way
Is it just the battery or is it the Alternator?
I have a family card off of my Brothers AAA account.
It is handy to have two cars.

Thanks for the kind words

Good morning.
Irene, good for you for getting all your steps in. I didn't do much yesterday.
Roger, good going on getting back to pre-celebration weight and losing an extra pound! WTG! Even with this crazy diet I'm on, so far I've only gotten down to pre-Christmas weight, and am maintaining. I think I will start losing slowly once my body starts healing more.
Thanks for keeping the humor coming!
Car....Luckily it was just the battery. I have Geico....they're really good about getting someone there fast. My car, however, needs a lot of repairs. Lots of leaking underneath, so they're going to fix all that today. It's 15 years old and over 200,000 miles, lots of parts just wear out. I think with the fixes, it will last a few more years. I like my car and not really looking to get a new one. Skipping clay group today, besides my car being in the shop, most of the others are busy or incapacitated today. No sense borrowing a car to be there by myself. Will find something else to do.
Have a great day, everyone.

Hi Again
Yesterday I was over 11K by days end...
I would say that was not bad being back to before the Christmas, New Years and possibly St. Patrick's day feasts
TBH whether or not to fix a leak sort of depends on what it is too. Slow Oil Leaks I would not be worried. Coolant or Transmission and Power Steering Fluid it would depend on cost vs how often I had to replenish them.
As an example Our mechanic told my brother that considering the cost to fix his seeping oil leak it wasn't worth it.
I kept my last car from 1988 until a couple of years ago. I would likely still be driving it if the rusting had not become terminal
Not going to Clay class makes sense to me.
Have a Nice Day

Update:
I suspect I shall hit a roadblock today as there are two Sweet Potato bread baking in the oven. It was either use up the over baked amount of the Sweet Potatoes or eat too much of them or Throw them out and Both my Brother and I hate wasting good food like that. Even if they are home grown from the garden
We should end up Giving at least on of them away and I know my Brother will eat the lions share. I will have one slice hot from the oven most likely with butter melting into them.
FWIW
Some of the Old 78 RPM records I did Yesterday are over 100 years old (1916) and marked from the factory at $1.75 which was a large amount of money 100 years ago. Some of them are even Single Sided with the back side being flat
Have a Nice Day

FWIW I just pulled the Sweet Potato Bread and they smell delicious. I expect they will taste delicious too as I licked the beater and it was tasty uncooked 0

Good afternoon;
I have an old box of 78's around somewhere.
Roger-That sweet potato bread sounds good, have a bite or me.
Vix-You were lucky that you were not out somewhere when your car wouldn't start. I hope your car get fixed quickly and doesn't cost a fortune.
Irene-Working up a sweat at work will burn calories. Good luck with the pool.
After having 3 days off, work was tiring. I am ready for a nap.
Have a good day. 0 -
Hi all.
Sweet potato bread sounds delicious. I've never had that...but probably like pumpkin bread?
I know I was lucky to get stuck at home. I knew about all the leaks and just decided to have them fixed while they had the car. It won't be finished until tomorrow, and it is costing a fortune, but still much less than buying another car. I'm not really excited about any of the new cars now. The transmission fluid was leaking and it needed a new line from the steering, and a few other leaking parts that I can't remember, a new battery, flushing the coolant system which was also leaking. I'm sure they had to take a bunch of things apart. My husband used goo gone to get rid of the big multicolored puddles in the garage that were under my car. I'm looking forward to getting it back. Didn't realize how much I would miss just being able to get out whenever I felt like. I missed a meeting tonight. I was going to borrow my husband's car, but he couldn't find his registration! Lucky he hasn't been stopped. He got a temporary one on-line, but it was too late for me to make the meeting. Oh, well.0 -

Hi Joanne
I actually have lots of 78s around. Many of which I remember from when I was a kid. This would be one of them. I think My copy of this one sounded a bit better IMO.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIct9kr0QBo
If I said the Sweet Potato bread tasted like a Sweet Potato Pie in bread form and I had a feeling that it would taste real nice with Whipped Cream as well as butter. TBH not a surprise once I thought about it. The Recipe includes pretty much the same ingredients a the Sweet Potato Pie filling and crust with the Baking powder and Baking Soda to make it rise like bread.
If anyone want a copy of the recipe I'll hit my brother up for it.
Have a Nice Day

Hi Vix
I would say that is likely as the Sweet Potato Pie tastes a lot like Pumpkin Pie.
It sounds like it was time to have it repaired
If I said from the advertisements I see on the TV for cars these days and the ahem, so called features.
That is one of the reasons my brother bought the F150 he did. It is a more or less plain version without all the junk that litters new cars. He did not want something that You do not need a key to start and unlock. The cars that unlock with a press of a button on the key fob have been figured out so that crooks can open them with a inexpensive device.
Sorry about your missed meeting.
Have a Good Day

Good morning!
Went swimming this a.m.
Roger, I would surely be tempted with the goodies at your house. I was able to have a piece of my 86% chocolate last night. It was really nice having a treat.
Sunny and cool here.
Have a great day, everyone.0
