    good morning
    Ed, I hope you get your nice slow day today.
    I'm just back from the blood tests for my yearly physical coming up in a couple of weeks.
    Will see what the day brings.
    Yesterday was like a summer day and was able to sit out in the sun for a while, just soaking in the rays.
    It's currently 46F. Sunshine and a few afternoon clouds. High 48F. Winds NW at 15 to 25 mph. Higher wind gusts possible.
    Wishing all an easy Friday.

    Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday!

    We have 12 (Celsius) cloudy degrees with an expected cloudy high of 18 and 21% chance of precipitation.

    I need to get to the grocery and maybe get some laundry done this weekend.

    Good morning;
    Friday was my last day! :)
    We had snow off and on yesterday, only about an inch. It was bitter cold, didn't get out of the teens. There is more snow expected for Monday night into Tuesday. I am glad I don't have to drive into work. I can stay in my nice warm house and admire the snow.
    Tomorrow is my daughter's birthday, so we are taking her to lunch today.
    Have a great day! :)

    Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday!

    We have 16 (Celsius) cloudy degrees (feels like 15) with an expected high of 20 under cloudy skies with 4% chance of precipitation.

    Happy Retirement, Jo!

    I may get back out to Kroger for a couple of things today, but nothing critical so that might not happen. Our somewhat late dinner last night was at one of our newly discovered, but already a favorite, Indian restaurant. It's a bit of a drive, but the food is wonderful. It's probably just as well that it's not too near, as we'd go too often. They are a bit on the expensive side.

    Breakfast today was fried bologna and whole grain protein waffles.

    Good morning;
    Thank you all!
    We have sun today. Tonight we are in for more snow and extending into tomorrow for most of the day.
    I have an appt. with my financial advisor this morning to go over a few things. The office is right near a Whole Foods, so I may
    pop in there to see what they have.
    Have a great day! :)

    SCAM OF THE WEEK:

    r/Cybercriminals: Spear Phishing

    Reddit, a popular online community, was the latest victim of a spear phishing attack. Spear phishing is a targeted email attack that looks like it’s from a trusted source, but it’s actually from cybercriminals in disguise.

    In this recent attack, a cybercriminal set up a fake website designed to steal login credentials. Then, the cybercriminal sent phishing emails to Reddit employees. The emails prompted employees to visit the fake website and enter their credentials. Through this attack, the cybercriminal was able to access sensitive information from Reddit and steal internal company data.

    Follow the tips below to stay safe from similar scams:

    • Make sure that the sender is actually who they say they are. If the sender claims to be someone you know, reach out to them in person or by phone to verify.

    • Remember that spear phishing attacks can happen to anyone. Think before you click, and never click a link in an email that you aren’t expecting.

    • Be careful with the information you share about yourself online. Cybercriminals can use this information to target you in phishing attacks.

    It's currently 38F. Cloudy early with peeks of sunshine expected late. High 57F. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph. We had lots of rain last night.
    I made hot and sour soup yesterday for dinner. It's one of my favorites. I've gotten a cold, and soup is always good for that.

    Ed, glad you and Dinah got the laundry folded. Reminds me, I don't know if you remember Dinah Shore? She and my Dad met when he was at Emory U and became friends. I think of that every time you mention Dinah. :)
    Jo, sounds like you're enjoying being home. Lucky hubby getting cupcakes. :)
    Irene, we haven't really gotten any snow either. I don't really miss it.
    It's currently 48F. Chance of a morning shower. Partly cloudy this morning, then becoming cloudy during the afternoon. High 63F. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph.
    Our housecleaner is coming today. Happy about that. Always feels better when the house is spruced up.

    Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday!

    We have 16 (Celsius) cloudy degrees (feels like 15) with an expected cloudy high of 22 and 82% chance of precipitation that could include thunderstorms.

    We may be finishing up (at least for now) with a couple of projects but hopefully no one will be foolish enough to install updates late on a Friday. That's definitely a Monday thing unless it's an emergency fix.

    Jo, I hope you didn't get too much snow. Sometimes a little bit is pretty.
    We had lots of rain and wind yesterday afternoon through the evening. Some snow mixed in at times.
    My massage was great. I really needed that.
    It's currently 44F. Windy. Cloudy skies will become mostly sunny this afternoon. High 49F. Winds WNW at 20 to 30 mph. Winds could occasionally gust over 40 mph.

    Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous sunny Sunday!

    We have 7 (Celsius) sunny degrees (feels like 6) with an expected high of 22 and 1% chance of precipitation.

    I got out to Kroger yesterday, but decided I can wait until next weekend if I want, on the cat food and supplies, as they have enough to last more than a week more. If I get out today, I may go to PetSmart anyway.

    I had so much fun babysitting last night. Those 2 are so sweet! 🥰

    It's currently 39f and mostly sunny. 🌞 Sunshine and clouds mixed. High 56F. Winds light and variable.
    I was so exhausted I really didn't do anything yesterday. I sat on the porch, reading and enjoying the sun for a while.
    Happily, no plans for today, so puttering and catching up around the house.
    Wishing all a bright shiny new week.
