    Good morning all.
    Enjoy your hospital visit, Irene.
    Ed, my husband gets gluten free pasta, usually brown rice or some combination of non-gluten grains. Some are more pasta like than others. I don't think he's tried the lentil or chick pea variety (haha, probably because he doesn't really like lentils or chickpeas.).
    The clouds and rain are hanging around here through tomorrow...high of 48 today, so pretty warm for winter. Supposed to be cold again tomorrow night and into the weekend.
    I'm glad it's Wednesday, and I have nothing scheduled. Will hang out and see what the day brings.
    Happy Wednesday, everyone. :)

    Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! It's rainy this morning, but it's supposed to taper off toward the afternoon, with temperatures falling, but not TOO far.

    With the camera watching the front sidewalk now, we found out last night what is sometimes triggering the front door light to come on. A white and black cat, that actually looks a lot like our Kiara, was seen on cam last night when the light's motion sensor turned it on. The cat came in from behind the hedge, stepped just far enough into the frame to be seen, and then back out, presumably back behind the hedge. Something has been triggering the motion sensor light by the garage too, and we had been wondering what. Now we suspect one (or more) of the three (current) neighborhood cats that sometimes wander over for a visit is probably triggering that one too.

    I need to get some laundry folded today.

    Good morning all.
    Ed, nice flowers! Our daffodil stems are up, but no flowers yet. It's supposed to go up to 52 today, but down to 15 tomorrow night (cold Friday and Saturday). Mostly cloudy with chance of rain this afternoon.
    Jan, I hope your flowers and blueberries are ok with the cold coming in.
    Hi Irene, Jo, and Val.
    Have a good day, everyone. :)

    Good morning all.
    Only a high of 34 today, with a low of 15 tonight, then a high of 37 tomorrow, back into the 40s on Sunday.
    Irene, good for you for getting all your cleaning done. You deserve a day to take it easy!
    We babysat last night. It was so much fun. <3 Our grandson will be a year old on the 18th.
    My calendar is free today, will see what the day brings. :)

    Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday! Nice weather expected all day, and I might get out to Kroger for a few things. Not a lot on the agenda.

    Good morning;
    Happy belated Valentines Day!
    Ed- your flowers brought a smile to my face. Happy belated birthday to Lilo. The cats and squirrels in our neighborhood set off our motion detector lights.
    Vix-Happy birthday to your grandson.
    Irene-I am glad Annie seems better.
    Jan-I envy your warm temps.
    It is currently 7 degrees and will get up to 32 later today.
    After seeing the Dr. on Monday, I am on light duty, can't lift anything more than 15lbs and can't push or pull anything. The only one having a problem with this is my immediate supervisor. He makes everything about him, (drama queen). The store director took me aside yesterday and told me to let him know if anyone in the dept. was giving me a hard time or making me feel uncomfortable. I felt better knowing he was on my side.
    Have a great day and stay warm. :)

    Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday! Zero percent chance of precipitation today. We might go to an antique mall in Monroe later.

    Good morning all.
    Have fun at the antique mall, Ed.
    Irene, 10 is cold!!! It was 15 overnight here, but has already warmed up to 24 with a high of 37 for today. And it's sunny, which is great.
    This year has gone very fast. Will's birthday is Tuesday! Such a snuggly cutie!
    Jo, so sorry your pain is continuing. It's good that you are on light duty and great that your store director is on your side. It's nice when your bosses appreciate a good worker. Hopefully he also took your immediate supervisor aside and had a word with them too. Be careful and take good care of yourself. Hopefully it will ease up for you. I'm not supposed to lift anything heavy either. I feel it if I do.
    Jan, stay warm!
    It's Saturday and the sun is shining.
    Have a great day, everyone. :)

    Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday! Looks like I accidentally put a funny here in the group chat again. LOL.

    The antique mall was a lot smaller than we expected, and it was a fairly long drive to get there.

    We didn't consider it a wasted trip though, as we stopped at a nice farmers market on the way back, picking up a few items, including a large tub of salad that we used half of at dinner later.

    Then we stopped at a small flea market in Conyers, but most of the stalls were closed. The market was open until 8:00 but apparently the individual stalls were open whenever the renters wanted. To be fair, it wasn't very busy by the time we got there, so there was little incentive for the sellers to stay late.

    So we enjoyed the trip, aside from the traffic, and while dinner was a bit late, it was quick and easy as we had leftovers already plated up in the refrigerator. I quickly put together a couple of side salads from the tub we picked up, warmed up the leftovers in the microwave, and dinner was served.

    Not much on the agenda today.

    Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday! It should be a fairly nice day here, and I may get out for a grocery item or two. Or even three or more. One never knows what unexpected deals there might be. Or maybe I'll not go. We'll see how the day goes.

    Hi all.
    Sunny and 54 here! Warm! I had a massage this morning, and then went to the grocery store. I am always running out of vegetables.
    Such a beautiful day.
    Enjoy! :)
