Howdy all y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! We currently have 6 (41 F) clear degrees with an expected high of 22 (71 F) under mostly cloudy skies and a 2% chance of rain.
I need to get the rest of the laundry folded and put away. Nothing else critical on the home front today.

Good morning.
It's currently 58F, sunny. High 67F. Winds NNW at 10 to 20 mph. Looks like it will be a beautiful day to spend some time in the sunshine.
We made instant pot chicken tikka masala last night. It was yummy.
Did a load of laundry this a.m., and just need to fold it. I don't mind. Might look for another recipe to try tonight.
Happy Wednesday, everyone.0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! We currently have 11 (52 F) mostly cloudy degrees out there with an 80% chance of rain through 8 am. I know I heard a few random drops falling a while ago. Our expected high today is 15 (57 F) under overcast skies, with a 99% chance of rain.
I got all the laundry done, folded, and put away. We had a long workday yesterday so it was nice to throw together a salad, and pull the last frozen cheese pizza out to bake for an easy supper. Tonight will probably be roasted or stir fried veggies, and some stuffed, broiled Portabella caps, assuming the workday is not too grueling.

Good morning.
Ed, we made chicken with coconut rice last night. It was definitely comfort food, but I liked the tikka masala better.
Plus, my scale was not happy that I ate rice. Stupid scale. I'm sure it would feel the same about pizza! Hope you have an easier workday.
It's currently 46F here, partly to mostly cloudy. High 64F. Winds SE at 5 to 10 mph. It was nice yesterday, I got a chance to sit in the sun for a little while.
House cleaning today. Woohoo.
Happy Thursday, everyone.

Elvis Presley received a polio vaccine in New York City 65 years ago today to inspire his teenage fans to do the same.0

Good morning;
The storm knocked out our power for 28 hours. We just got it back about 15 min. ago.
I am now doing laundry, putting the dishwasher through and anything else that couldn't be done in the dark. We have a small generator, so we were able to keep the refrigerator going.
We lost a few tree branches, but nothing major.
We go on Monday for our Covoid booster shots.
Have a good day!0 -
good morning, JO glad you got your power back on .We have a in home generator it kicks on when we lose power and it covers everything. Good luck on getting your booster, George and I got ours a couple of weeks ago and we had no problems.0
-
Good morning.
Wow, sorry your power was knocked out, Jo, glad it's back on. I'm glad there's no major damage. It looked like a lot of power transformers were hit, big storm for you. Nice that you have a generator for your refrigerator. Great that you're gettting the booster. I'm going to wait a week or 2 more after having the virus.
Irene, did you also get hit by the storm? Sounds like you and George are covered. That's good.
It's currently 53F here, raining, and windy at times. High 59F. Winds E at 20 to 30 mph. Rainfall possibly over one inch with some heavy rainfall possible.
The Halloween parade at my grandson's daycare was cancelled due to the weather. I guess I'll just have to wait until Halloween to see the little ones dressed up, so cute.
Yay, it's Friday! Have a good one.0 -
Howdy all y'all. Jumped right into work today so forgot to check in here. Busy, busy. But I may get off early. Rainy day lunch was a can of soup, a salad, a small apple, and a couple of graham goldfish.

Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday! We have 11 (51 F) cloudy degrees now with an expected high of 15 (58 F) under cloudy skies with a 55% chance of rain. We were scheduled to go to a Halloween party this afternoon but may not go as J has been having some cold symptoms. So I am not making the baked beans this morning, and if we go I will just have to either buy something else to bring or not bring anything. There would have been plenty of food regardless.
Nothing critical on the home front. We may start bringing some of the plants into the garage for the cooler months.

good morning, well we did get some wind and a little rain but we are fine . On Thursday George had kidney stones removed he is doing really well he is still on meds going to be taking it easy for the next 2 weeks take care everyone0
-
Good morning.
Ed, I hope J's ok, might want to go get tested after being with a lot of people. Hope it's just a little cold.
Irene, I'm glad George is doing well. Kidney stones must be very painful. I'm sure you'll take good care of him. Glad the weather wasn't too bad.
It rained here all day yesterday.
It's currently 54F, cloudy. Slight chance of a rain shower. High 61F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph.
Will be babysitting later today.
Happy Saturday, everyone.0 -
With J not feeling well we decided it would be best if we didn't go to the party. I went out for groceries and did pick up a home Covid test while out, and J tested negative. We need to use the other tube to test again in 24 to 48 hours.

Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
We have 11 (52 F) cloudy degrees now with an expected high of 19 (66 F) under mostly cloudy skies with a 3% chance of rain.
I need to get laundry started and, again, we MAY start bringing some of the plants into the garage for the cooler months.
I can't do anything until Kiara decides I have held her long enough. Buttons is still living in the hall bathroom, but we have let her out to explore the house, with J supervising the exploration while I entertained the others in the master bedroom.
We then let the others out to meet her, and Buttons decided she needed to return to her room, having had enough excitement. There wasn't an egregious amount of hissing and growling, and they just need time to learn each other's language. The transition is going nicely. She may need a few more days of relative solitude, but they have all at least met, though she hasn't gotten close enough to any of the others to give them a good sniff yet.

Good morning,
Ed, glad J's test was negative. I guess Buttons is a little older and takes some time to get used to things, good that the transition is going well.
Spent some time babysitting last night, a lot of baby snuggling time. She was a little fussy, but adorable. My co-grandma was there too and she got to spend time with our grandson. I missed that! He's so much fun at this age. I'll catch up with him another day.
It's currently 54F, cloudy skies, partial clearing expected later. Slight chance of a rain shower. High 62F. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph.
Looking forward to seeing all the costumed kids around the neighborhood later.

Good morning
Ed-I hope J feels better soon and that the second test is also negative.
Irene-Wishing George a speedy recovery. I have had kidney stones and know how painful they can be.
Vix-What is your grandson dressing up as? The little ones always look so cute.
We had more rain last night. It is cloudy and the sun has been trying to peek out.
Enjoy your day! 0 -
Jo, he's got a skeleton dinosaur costume, very cute, he loves it. My granddaughter has a fairy costume, but not warm enough for outside. She has a warm pumpkin onesie with a stemmed cap, also very cute.0

Howdy all y'all. It's magnificent Monday! It's currently 6 (43 F) clear degrees with an expected high of 21 (70 F) under sunny skies and a 3% chance of precipitation.
Buttons had free run of most of the house overnight, and had an adventure in the kitchen dumping the window shelf of plants into the sinks. Hopefully that will be a one time thing. I am sure it scared her, so maybe she will remember that before trying it again. Nothing was shattered or broken and Buttons is fine.
Need to get to work.

Good morning.
Ed, glad Buttons came through her adventure unscathed. Doesn't sound like a fun cleanup, but not too bad if it all fell into the sink.
I got to see the little ones last night, too cute for words. (Ran out of candy about 7:30! Seems like more kids than last year).
It's currently 54F, plenty of sunshine. High 56F. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph. Chilling off this week, highs in the 50s and 60s. If the sun's nice I'll probably put on a jacket and soak some up.
Another new week. Wishing everyone a good one. 🤗0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday!
We currently have 6 partly cloudy degrees out there with an expected high of 21 under partly cloud skies and that usual 3% chance of precipitation.
Nothing critical on the home front today. J still has a sore throat sinus thing but the second Covid test was also negative.

Good morning,
Ed, so glad J's test is negative. I think I'm still having after effects. Left a message with Dr. this a.m., maybe tell me something I can do.
It's currently 46F, steady rain this morning. Showers continuing this afternoon. High 48F. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph. Will go out and vote for a new mayor a little later. We had a really good one who unfortunately passed away from cancer a couple of months ago.
Kind of a dreary day. I'll probably do some laundry, read, etc.
Have a good Tuesday, everyone.0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! We currently have 6 (42 F) clear degrees with an expected high of 14 (59 F) under partly sunny skies. There is a good chance of rain overnight and tomorrow.

Good morning.
Frosty this morning, 32F, Sunny to partly cloudy. High 51F. Winds NW at 5 to 10 mph. No special plans for today. It's pretty out with the grass all covered in frost and the Autumn leaves that are still on some of the trees. We still had a couple of flowers blooming.
Will probably stop by the library later.
Happy Wednesday, everyone.0 -
good morning, a little chilly0

Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday!
We currently have 7 (44 F) degrees and rain. The expected high today is only 9 (48 F) and it looks like overcast all day and rain throughout the morning. I think this weekend we will have to get the rest of the outdoor plants moved into the garage.

Good morning.
Yes, Irene, it's a bit chilly this week, highs in the 50s.
Ed, we had our first frost yesterday, with a repeat today. Ah, Autumn.
It's currently 31F, considerable cloudiness. High 51F. Winds light and variable. About the same temps as yesterday, but we had a lot of sunshine yesterday, and it was lovely sitting outdoors and soaking in the sun.
I have an eye exam today. I need it to renew my drivers' license. I think they can send the results to the DMV, then I can fill out the forms online and don't have to go in. That's nice.
Happy Thursday, everyone. 0 -
Good morning.
It's currently 29F, will be sunny (still dark!). High 52F. Winds N at 5 to 10 mph.
I passed the eye exam for my driver's license and the optometrist sent it in to DMV. I filled out the other paper work, so I'm glad that's done. I'm starting to get cataracts, and I need to go back for more glaucoma tests, for now the pressure in my eyes is normal, so that's good. I opted out of the mild distance glasses, and can up the strength on my readers. I can't remember the last time I went for an eye exam, probably 3 or 4 years ago.
We made Tuscan chicken stew for dinner last night, and quinoa enchilada cassarole the night before, both were very tasty. It's fun when we try some new recipes.
Happy Friday, everyone. Ah, weekend is almost here! 0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday! We currently have 6 (42 F) partly cloudy degrees with an expected high of 12 (54 F) under overcast skies and a 3% chance of rain.
Nothing critical on the home front today. Plenty to test with work though!

Good morning;
I hope everyone is doing well.
We went for our booster shots this week, no side effects for me but hubby had the chills.
I am off this weekend and plan on checking out a couple of farmers markets that I usually cant' go to because of working on Saturday.
Vix-It is fun trying out new recipes, especially if they turn out good.
I got the ok from the chiro to go back to work at fully duty. I only have to see him as needed.
Ed- how are the kitties getting along?
Hi Irene.
Jan-I miss you, hope you are doing well.
Have a great weekend.0 -
Good morning.
Jo, so glad you are feeling better and got the all-clear from your chiro. Good that you got your booster shots. Enjoy your weekend off, farmers' markets should make for a fun day.
Hi Ed, Irene, and Jan.
We've got toddler soccer to watch this morning.
It's frosty out again, currently 31 and sunny to partly cloudy for the day. High 54F. Winds light and variable.
Happy Saturday! Happy Weekend!
