Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday!
We have 12 (Celsius) clear degrees with an expected high of 23 under sunny skies and 0% chance of rain.
Today is J's birthday. Dinner will be whatever he wants. I think J was surprised by my choice of homemade homestyle chili with beans for my birthday, but not surprised at all by the carrot cake dessert or the martini! LOL!

good morning
Ed, wish J a happy birthday from me! Carrot cake and a martini sound great! I like chili too.
I made my crispy baked tofu last night, along with some veggies.
Irene, it's nice and brisk outside this a.m.
It's currently 50F here, sunshine and clouds mixed. High 67F. Winds NNE at 10 to 15 mph. Looks like it will be in the 50s and 60s this week.
No special plans for today. Will probably try to work on my new laptop a bit, and contact HP about the warranty. They have the wrong date.
Wishing all an easy Thursday. 🌞

Ordering in tonight (Thursday) from our favorite Thai restaurant in the area, all vegetarian since it's J's birthday. And we have chocolate cake for dessert already here. I'm sipping my martini now.

Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday!
We have 15 (Celsius) cloudy degrees with an expected mostly cloudy high of 25 and 0% chance of rain.
Dinner was nice and enough left over for two or three more plates of food. I ate most of the fried tofu appetizer, while J had the fresh spring rolls. Then we both had small plates of spicy basil fried rice and spicy pad kee mao, drunken noodles, both with fried tofu for the protein. Most of the fried rice and noodles then went into the fridge for later meals and we had chocolate cake for J's birthday dessert.
I can feel the weekend coming!

good Friday morning,
Happy Birthday J0 -
good morning
Ed, sounds like a delicious birthday celebration for J!
I'm getting a cortisone shot this morning, hoping that will help.
I got my warranty fixed yesterday. But then the rental agent called about the house we were renting for next weekend. It had a leak and won't be repaired on time. She sent 3 comparables for us to look at, so had to look them over and decide on another one. Waiting for the new contract.
It's currently 47F, a mix of clouds and sun (mostly cloudy) early followed by cloudy skies this afternoon. High 64F. Winds NE at 5 to 10 mph.
Wishing all a happy Friday and a great weekend! 🍃🌠

Ed, I hope the storm skipped by you on the way to South Carolina. We're getting some rain from the edges of it for a couple of days.
Hi Irene and Jo. I guess Jo is still on vacation. I hope you're having fun across the pond!
I got 2 cortisone shots yesterday for right and left sacroiliac. It takes a few days to settle in, but I'm looking forward to feeling better.
Taking it slow today, going to take care of some things around the house.
It's currently 52F, cloudy with occasional light rain during the afternoon. High 61F. Winds NE at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 70%. We're actually having continuing light rain on and off since last night.
Wishing all a relaxing weekend. 🦋0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday!
We have 16 (Celsius) sunny degrees with an expected high of 24 under sunny skies and 0% chance of rain. The container garden is showing serious decline, but we may get a few more tomatoes, bell peppers, and jalapenos. I see some late flowers on bell pepper plants and there are a few more scrawny jalapenos and tomatoes that may come through. If not, we had a satisfying enough harvest and enjoyed them through the summer.
I have a dryer full of laundry to fold this morning and may get out to Kroger.good morning

The storm veered well to the east of us here in the Atlanta area, though we did get a couple of days of somewhat strong winds. The company we work for has the main office in Murrell's Inlet, North Carolina, right smack in the path of the storm. We know the people who work at that office cleared out in advance of the storm. At least I think most of them did. I'm sure we'll get news Monday on how much damage, if any, we got there. The owner of the company showed us rising water behind his house there, from the security cameras, until the power went out at the house. He wasn't there, as he spends most of his time in his Charlotte home now.
The cats let me sleep in this morning, grudgingly, but I was up in time to feed them before they wasted away to nothing. We were up late last night watching Hocus Pocus 2 on the Disney channel. We were pleasantly surprised to find that there was no additional charge to watch it, and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was very well done.
My tea mug is empty.

Ed, I hope your company's main office is ok. This storm is a doozy. We've cooled off considerably here, but there are still flowers blooming, marigolds and asters and a few others. Almost time to clean up the garden for winter.
It's currently 54F and rainy, expecting continuing rain for the next couple of days. Gale warnings and small craft warnings for the boating people. High around 55F. Winds NNE at 10 to 15 mph where we are.
Wishing all a peaceful Sunday. 🦋0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous sunny Sunday!
We have 18 (Celsius) sunny degrees with an expected mostly sunny high of 24 and 0% chance of rain.
I still haven't folded that laundry yet. It is waiting in the dryer. I might get out to a grocery this morning.

Wishing all a fine new week. ☔0 -
hi all,
we are on our second day of rain and it looks like it is going to rain again tomorrow .I have a real hard time trying to get Sammie out in the rain.
Vix I also fold and put away the clothes as soon as they are done it helps that laundry room is right off of the kitchen .
take care0 -
Instead of meatless Monday tonight, Eduardo decided on meatloaf Monday. I wasn't sure what I was going to make with that pound of ground beef, though I had several ideas in mind.
Eduardo decided on individual meatloaf patties, with tomato gravy, using my mother's recipe, but not shaping it into a loaf.
I had a nice meal of comfort food and have enough left over for three more meals!
I fried up a couple of veggie burger patties for J, and air fried some tater tots.

Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday!
We have 14 (Celsius) mostly cloudy degrees with an expected mostly cloudy high of 24 and 2% chance of rain.
Apparently our office in Murrell's Inlet is fine. At least we've had no reports saying otherwise from the staff who work there, and some of them have been online. The owner had 4 inches of water in the garage of the home he maintains in Murrell's Inlet, but that's all we've heard.
I still have some laundry to fold. LOL. Leftover meatloaf, mashed potatoes, gravy, and green peas for breakfast this morning. I'll be having that for lunch as well. I love meatloaf so it's always great to have enough for several meals when I make it.

Glad all is well with your company, Ed. I don't make meatloaf very often, but it is nice comfort food.
I made spaghetti squash yesterday, that's also good for several meals.
Irene, it's still raining here too.
I have some things to do around the house (always). Nothing special planned for this rainy day.
It's currently 47F, periods of rain. High around 50F. Winds N at 10 to 15 mph.
Wishing all a pleasant Tuesday. ☔🍃

good morning
Thanks, Irene, I'm really looking forward to it.
Good luck with the review whenever it comes, Ed. I'm sure it'll be good.
Hubby's been gathering seeds from our garden for next year. Not sure if I'll take anything in or not.
Followed up with the rheumatologist this morning. Got a cortizone shot in my shoulder, so that should be feeling better shortly too.
It's currently 60F, sunshine to start, then a few afternoon clouds. High around 75F. Winds light and variable. It is really nice out this morning.
Wishing all a good day and a great weekend. 🌞0 -

good morning,
vix enjoy the mountains.
we had to cut our walk short because it started to rain and Sammie gets so scared in the rain, so I will be spending more time on the treadmill.

Howdy all y'all. It's sunny Saturday!
We have 15 (Celsius) sunny degrees with an expected high of 24 under mostly sunny skies and 1% chance of rain. I may need to get out for a few groceries today.
Oh, I exceeded expectations on all segments of my annual review. Money is tight with the company so I'm not holding my breath for a raise, but we'll see. It doesn't matter to me, as we are doing OK moneywise for now.

Good morning,
We are back from vacation. We had a great time and it was so good to see my son.
This past week my hubby and I have both been dealing with medical issues. I am scheduled to have surgery to blast my kidney stones on Wednesday and the following Wednesday hubby goes in for a procedure.
Vix-enjoy your weekend in the mountains.
Ed-congrats on a great review and I hope they give you a raise.
Irene-I hope you are able to get out today and walk.
Have a great day!0
