Good morning.
Hi Roger, sounds like a good walk this a.m.
Hi Irene.
Jo, you've been keeping busy! Sounds like a lot of fun things. What is at the Dr. Suess museum?
No plans yet for today. Seems kind of chilly, but may go for a walk later.
Happy Wednesday, everyone.
Today was a good day while walking as it was not to cold. I am not liking the sound of the weather that the forecast indicates will be moving in later in the day Friday, Wind and Rain, Yuck
Have a Good Day

Hi Irene.
Hi Roger.
We have been busy. On Saturday we went to the Head of the Charles Regatta. It turned out to be a beautiful day. Sunday we went to a vegan food fest, my daughter is Vegetarian.
I ate some pretty interesting things, not all of them good. Monday we went to New Hampshire to the Holderness Science Center. We saw animals and hiked through their trails.
Tuesday we went to the new MGM casino in Springfield, MA. I allotted myself $20 to gamble with and came home with $18.00, not bad for 2 hours. We then went to the Dr. Suess Museum
and took some pictures. We have no plans today so far.
My car is in the shop getting fixed, so my daughter has been my chauffeur. She goes back to work tomorrow, so I will probably be stuck in the house for a few days. No problem, as there is always plenty to do around the house.
Have a great day!
I think I forgot to wish You a Happy Birthday, so here is a belated Birthday Wish.
That is the way I like the Irish Soda Bread too.
A Vegan Food Fest does not meet my definition of festival food. As I see it a food Festival should have things like Zeppoles, Grilled Sausage Sandwiches, Meat on a stick, Funnel Cakes and more.
The Charles Regatta sounds like a boat race ?
Only losing $2 is not to bad and more or less sounds like the $2 is the casino margin built into the games. I have also heard in the past that as regards Slot Machines that the closer to the door the lower the chance of wining, That is based on being in Las Vegas in the past.
Good Luck getting the car back, I am guessing that will be the body work from the accident.
Have a Nice Day

good morning, we didn't walk this morning Annie's paw is still sore hopefully this afternoon I can take her out I will see she is still limping so I will play it by ear no big plans for today I do have some house work to do but I want Annie to stay off her paw as much as possible I know it sounds like a great excuse. take care everyone0

Hello,
Went to art class this morning. Started a new painting (a cardinal). Then went for a walk in the park.
Irene, hope Annie's paw gets better quickly.
Roger good that you keep up the walking.
Hi Jo, it's nice to be off work, even if you are stuck at home.
I've got so much to do at home, it always seems to get ahead of me.
Hope everyone is having a good day.0 -
Good morning;
Irene-I hope Annie's paw is better soon.
Yesterday I put away some more of the outdoor stuff. I still have a few plants that I will store in the shed until next spring. I like to put them in the shed, so the pots won't crack during the cold and snow.
Roger-The body work on my car is from the accident. I will call them today and see what the status is on my car.
Hi Vix.
I had a surprise visit from my nephew last night. He was in the area and stopped by. I hadn't seen him in a while so it was nice to catch up.
Nothing planned for today, but I am sure I will find something to do.
Have a great day.0 -

Hopefully there is no damage to Annie that will need more than some rest.
I doubt that I will be going out Saturday if the weather forecasts are accurate as to heavy rain and high wind.
Good Luck

Interesting, a Cardinal sounds like it will be a pretty painting. As regards art, I draw a great Stick Figure
While walking I am seeing more intricate Halloween decorations daily. I have a three different colored LED light to put inside the Ceramic Pumpkin for Halloween Day, the rapid cycling of the LEDs should let Trick or Treaters know we are open for business. They are really bright too.
I just need to get the ambition to do some cleaning.

We are in a holding pattern waiting for the killing frost to get the Dahlias and Figs, Then it will be dig the Dahlias and pack them away for the winter in a cool location and Protect the Fig Trees against the wind and snow.
It sounds as if those plants can handle the cold, I would be worried about water in the pots freezing and cracking them too if I had Anything like that outside, As it is whatever is in the pots are not winter tolerant so I just dump out the soil and put them upside down.
So nice when family comes by.
Have a Nice Day

good morning, sounds like you all are doing good.

Good morning....gray and chilly out...similar forecast to NJ....rain later and through Saturday.
May go grocery shopping, do some things around the house. Going out later in the afternoon with my daughter to pick up some things for her baby shower coming up in a couple of weeks.
Glad Annie is doing better, Irene.
Roger, so far I've just put out my Autumn wreath...maybe I'll pull out the Halloween things today.
Jo, I just brought one plant inside....I have another one to bring in, but that one's really heavy! Not supposed to be frost again for a while, it survived the last one, and I'm not sure where to put it, it got so big.
Anyway, have a great day!
Happy Friday, everyone.0 -
Good morning;
My car will not be ready until the middle of next week. They found a few more thing that need to be repaired and are waiting on approval from the insurance co.
Today my daughter and I are going to take a glass blowing class and make a blown glass pumpkin. It should be fun.
The rain hasn't started here yet.
Have any of you been watching the world series? I haven't been able to stay awake that long.
Have a great day and stay dry.0 -
I just posted more humor, Partially Cat based today
Hi
I'm back home from walking and No Money found. The Temperature out the door was 45 degrees and as comfortable as it could be with the rain that forecast for today, Saturday. Since it was only rain falling I decided to go walking, while walking the wind started blowing. I did see a pair of walking appetites eating the landscaping at one of the Churches here in town
All day Friday they kept revising the weather forecast, Only as to when the rain and wind would arrive. They kept moving it later and later during Friday, and the last one I saw mentioned arriving around Midnight Friday in Saturday, I suspect it slowed down even more based on what I saw out the window prior to walking and while walking, Or to put it another way despite the steady rain the Puddles were not to bad.

Good news for Annie I see. Shorter walks can help get Annie back to 100% faster IMO.
It was not as bad as the weather forecast made it out to be, Thankfully. I was wearing full rain gear OTOH.
I seemed to have more free time when working too

The Winds seem to be picking up again, they had picked up after I left the house this morning and then dies down somewhat and now back up looking stronger than before As long as they do not eat the Electric Power or damage the house and yard, I don't much care.
that reminds me I need to Pull the Ceramic Pumpkin mom made one year out of storage.
Could You just root some cuttings on that really large plant and start over with a more manageable size ?
No Autumn wreath here, hmm... likely to late to get one now.

I hope You have better luck with the car than someone I worked with, The repair on his 1 or 2 week old car that his brother borrowed and wrecked took forever as the started work, found more damage, called Insurance Adjuster, and that cycle repeated over and over for months. I bet if they had been required to provide a rental car that process would have been much quicker.
Are You planning to use that Pumpkin this year as a Halloween or Thanksgiving Decoration ?
Glass blowing is a interesting art form as I see it. Tangential to what my brother did for years where he created Neon signs and did repairs as well as create Art with it to use as gifts.
Answer, Nope I keep forgetting that the Poorly named World Series is on. I call it poorly named as where are all the teams competing from around the world, locations such as Japan.
Enjoy the Glass Blowing

Good morning. Raining here since yesterday afternoon.
Roger your post got posted 2 times in full. Walking in the rain is not so bad if you're dressed for it and not walking on dirt paths. I'm sure the park is just mud today.
Enjoy your day, Irene...sometimes it's good to slow down.
Jo, the glassblowing sounds like fun....I've always wanted to do that...one of these days I'll get around to it. I heard the game went for 18 innings last night. I don't generally watch more than a few innings while I'm doing something else. It can be kind of slow. I'm sure it'll be good to get your car back all fixed up. Annoying not to have one. (I have insurance that pays for a loaner/rental car, it's so much easier.)
Walked in the park yesterday, went grocery shopping, and then went with my daughter to get paper plates , tableware, and prizes for her baby shower. Pretty busy day.

Happy Saturday, everyone.
The problem with walking in the rain where I am is the puddles that build up at the corners of the streets. Every now and then I end up misjudging the depth and end up with a shoe(s) full of water. Thus I am careful in the choice of where I walk as some areas are worse than others to the point where the only decent way around them is to veer into the street.
The News here was all over the fact that it was the longest game ever for a series game
Paper Plates ? There are some really nice disposable plastic plates and utensils. FWIW I also have some Wicker items that are designed to add rigidity to paper plates. I use one daily generally more to make it easy to handle and insulate hot foods in the microwave. I put a paper plate on it then sit the NS meals or the vegetables on it before Microwaving.
Have a Nice Day
Roger0 -
Good morning.
Another chilly day, supposed to be some sunshine later.
We bought Chinet plates, they're pretty heavy duty. I was looking at the prettier Dixie plates, but they're not as sturdy. Disposable/recyclable are easier for large parties. I use regular dishes for everyday. Most of them are microwave safe.
Had a fairly lazy day yesterday, did a few things around the house and was checking out different grocery stores for party trays. Ordered some more CBD, and some vitamins online. Time really gets away from me when I'm online.
Happy Sunday, everyone.0 -

Vix-How fun, planning the baby shower.
Roger-It was raining so hard here on Sat, that we only went to the glass blowing class and then came home. Yesterday it was sunny and quite warm.
Today I will putter around the house. When hubby gets home from work, he is taking me to get a rental car.
