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

    We have 12 (Celsius) partly cloudy degrees with an expected partly cloudy high of 18 and 13% chance of precipitation.

    Leftover pizza for breakfast.

    I have some laundry to fold. Other than that I'm hoping for a slow friday.

    good morning
    Irene, wishing you a speedy recovery.
    Ed, a slow day is nice sometimes. ;)
    Jo, ants on a log! Sounds good, and easy. We can try that! Thanks. Good luck with your purging.
    Our house cleaner is coming today. We went out yesterday, I picked up a couple of baby things, and some nice hand soap.
    It's currently 40F, 4C. Areas of patchy fog early. Showers early, then cloudy in the afternoon. High 54F, 12C. Winds NNW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 50%.

    Good morning;
    Currently 41F and drizzle. It is supposed to rain off and on all day.
    Irene-I am glad that you are not in too much pain.
    Ed-I hope you get your slow Friday.
    Vix-Baby things are so cute! Did you save any baby things from your kids to pass on to your grandchildren?
    I saved some things, but so far no grandchildren.
    I worked for a few hours this morning, then went grocery shopping and did a few other errands. Now I have the
    rest of the day to do whatever I want.
    Have a great day! :)

    Ed-I have never tried the frozen biscuits. I will look for them on my next trip to the grocery store.

    I have been getting the Pillsbury Grands Southern (or Buttermilk) frozen biscuits lately, but there may be store brands that are just as good.

    good morning
    Irene, glad you're feeling pretty good and getting some rest.
    Jo, I did save a few baby things. My daughter's children have a little pink whale and a beige teddy that she had as a baby, and a big toy truck that belonged to our son. I saved a blanket, and a few little outfits. I hope you enjoyed your free time. :)
    Ed, weekend!
    It rained overnight here. It's currently 42F, 6C, expected high of 46F,8C ; more clouds than sun.
    Will see what the day brings.
    Wishing all a relaxing, enjoyable weekend. β˜•πŸŒ±πŸŒ₯️🍷

    Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday!

    We have 4 (Celsius) clear degrees with an expected mostly sunny, ridiculously warm high of 23 and 1% chance of precipitation.

    I'm feeling tired and the day has barely begun, but perhaps my coffee in a bit will help with that. I've barely started on my tea at the moment.

    Ed, not February weather. Some of our daffodils have buds on them already. Hope your coffee perks you up. :)

    SCAM OF THE WEEK:
    Remote Desktop Robbery

    In this recent scam, cybercriminals are trying to trick you into downloading software that they can use to access your computer. They start by sending you a fake email that appears to come from your bank. The email says that there is an issue with your account and that their team needs to investigate. Of course, there isn’t actually an issue, but the scammer offers to help you fix it.

    Scammers often use fake emails to trick you into downloading malicious files. But in this scam, they have you download legitimate remote desktop software that is normally used by IT professionals to assist you. In this case, even though the software you downloaded is legitimate, the person who is asking you to install it is a scammer. If you allow them to access your desktop, they have full control of your computer. Then they can request passwords or other login information from you to gain access to your financial accounts and data.

    Follow these tips to avoid falling victim to a remote desktop scam:

    Be suspicious of any unexpected emails claiming that there is an issue with your account. If you have reason to believe the request is genuine, contact your bank using a verified number or email address.
    Never give control of your computer to someone who contacts you, even if they claim to be from your bank or tech support.
    Never share passwords or login information with anyone. This data is personal, and your bank will never ask you for it.

    Stop, Look, and Think. Don't be fooled.

    good morning
    Irene, so glad you're feeling better and there is no cancer, those results are always a relief.
    Jo, hope all is going well.
    Ed, we're getting freezing temps overnight for a couple of nights too. Hope the t-storms are not bad in your area. I like watching lightning.
    Craft day was good yesterday, I need to get to stained glass earlier, an hour isn't enough to get much done.
    It's currently 57F,14C, expected high of 65F, 18C. Becoming windier and warm; cloudy with a couple of showers and a thunderstorm; thunderstorms can bring localized damaging wind gusts. There's a wind advisory for tonight.

    Hi Jo and Irene.
    I got some errands run yesterday, picked up a few things I needed.
    I tried putting some cocoa powder in my coffee. I like it. :smile:
    Will see what today brings.

    Good afternoon,
    Currently 33F and very windy.
    Irene-I am glad that you are feeling better and that no cancer was found.
    Ed-I hope you didn't have to work too hard today.
    Vix-Cocoa powder in coffee sounds good. I will have to try it.
    Yesterday I went to the library. Today after work I went and had my hair colored and a little trim.
    I also did 2 loads of laundry.
    Have a great afternoon and stay warm. :)

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

    We have 5 rainy degrees with an expected rainy high of 6 and 100% chance of precipitation.

    I have an appointment for an ultrasound this morning, to check on how well I have recovered from my surgery in December, and to see if there are any developments that are of concern. I don't have any expectation of a problem, and I'm sure all will be fine.

    Yesterday we got our new product installed for the client to start testing today.

    Irene, sounds like you're feeling a lot better, if you're thinking about getting on the treadmill! Glad you're feeling better!
    Jo, always nice to get some pampering. Laundry is never ending. I've only got about 150 pages left of The Covenant of Water. Verghese is such a good writer!
    Ed, good luck with your ultrasound this a.m. Hope all is well.
    It's currently 36F,2C. Sunshine and a few clouds. High 52F,11C. Winds SE at 10 to 15 mph.
    Sipping my mocha and relaxing. Maybe get out and enjoy the sunshine later.

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

    We have 9 (Celsius) misty degrees with an expected partly cloudy high of 18 and 5% chance of precipitation.

    PetSmart and the grocery store are probably on the agenda for today. Last night we watched the Dune part two at the theatre and were up late after dinner at a new (to us) Indian restaurant that stayed open a bit later than most. The movie was very long, and it was about 9:15 when we got out. By the time we had eaten and left the restaurant, it was about 10:30 and I still needed to feed Remus, and give dental treats to Dinah and Orion, and a few other small things before getting to bed a little before midnight.

    Dinah let me sleep in until 8:30 but then insisted that I needed to be up and in the other room.

    I'll get around to the cat food and grocery in a while.
