Hi
I'm back home from walking and no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 30 degrees.

Our Ham is 13 Plus pounds and at a cost of $0.99 per pound makes it a good price and sizable enough to leave plenty of Leftovers. As I see it the cooking time should be somewhere between 3.5 hours and 4.5 hours. Since our main meal will be around noontime it will need to go into the oven shortly so as to have time to rest after being cooked. That resting time will leave enough time to bake a Loaf of Beer Bread.

It's that time of Year

I'm back home from walking and no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 31 degrees. My first Coffee stop had not reopened from their holiday hours, Oops, I thought about what to do and ended up at a Dunkin Donuts that was open so I did get my Coffee. Later today the leftover Ham will be broken down and much of it Vacuum Sealed and Frozen for future use.

Both my brother and I had problems with sleep New Years Eve due to the Snack foods that we overindulged with. I ate less than my Brother as I skipped 4 of each of the spicy ones and he did not so I ended up eating 17 vs his 25 snacks. Neither of slept good nor was the scale kind to us either.

Yesterdays New Years Meal was Some Ham, Some Turkey Breast and some home made stuffing AKA Dressing. The Turkey and Stuffing has Home made Turkey Gravy on them. All were leftovers from the freezer. I did not weigh and just winged it, Oops. I would likely have been OK if I had not eaten the Mini Panettone at 350 Calories, The worst of that was the High Carb Count

Hi
I'm back home from walking and once again no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 41 degrees and the walking was OK considering that there is a brisk breeze blowing making it feel colder than yesterday IMO.
Around 11PM I heard rain hitting the window AC so things were nicely soggy outside this morning with a brisk breeze that is doing a good job drying things up.

I finally did my Laundry yesterday, Washed, Dried, and folded. Still to be done is put away mostly in the dresser drawers. I also weeded out two socks that had holes worn in the heels. That seems to be where they wear out anymore. I do have plenty of them washed and more unopened in the sock drawer too so no worries.

I did have some temptation type items yesterday that my brother brought back from a meeting. Those would have Been Sausage & Peppers, I took some of the Sausage and fished out the Sauteed Onions to go with them passing on the Bell Peppers. I also had some Lemon Chicken too. To compensate I skipped Dinner That seems to have worked as the scale showed that I was down from yesterday.

Hi
I'm back home from walking and once again no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 33 degrees and the walking was OK.
There was a light snow falling as I went out the door, it appears to have ended by the time I returned home and it was enough to whiten the streets and not enough to cause traction issues while walking.
With the small raise in the amount of SSI it works out to be $9.93 a month more than last year. I have not decided what to do with that huge sum

Hi
I'm back home from walking and once again no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 35 degrees and the walking was more or less OK. There is a breeze blowing causing a wind chill on the exposed surfaces that are not covered by the hoodie.

Hi
I'm back home from walking and the first money of the new year was found, That would be one whole penny. The Temperature out the door was 17 degrees and the walking was OK due to the absence of any wind.

The forecast keeps changing. Friday the forecast from two different TV stations indicated and inch of more and the other a trace or complete miss for my area, Which is it, Likely a third forecast would be different too. All the Computer models and fancy weather satellites and that is the best they can come up with a forecast arrival 30 hours in the future

Hi
I'm back home from walking and once again no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 30 degrees and the walking is OK. The snow in the forecast for my area is either not coming or is delayed, the forecast showed it overspreading my area overnight before the time I would be out the door. So far so good, Since I have not seen any weather reports today I do not know if further South which was forecast to be hit harder is getting any snow.

P.S. I just looked out the window and sometime in the last half hour the snow has started falling
