    @Dpecora653 ,, WOOHOO it's CATURDAY!!! When we come right down to it, the only things one really needs is: shelter, food, clothing and love (I also say for myself a strong relationship with God, but not all feel that way and it's understandable why). Having a positive attitude just makes life so much easier. Even in times as we are living in.
    @Tabatha_Cain,,, hope you got the oil change and it was quick. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new laptop!!! I use it when my pain is to high to be in the living room. COMES IN HANDY!! My TV's do not need any hook ups to any devices, they both have that stuff in them, though I do use my roku in the bedroom. The living room nah, I don't, I can, I don't. LOL ENJOY the weekend hope it's relaxing for you!
    @Patti241 ,,, Glad you were able to get out Patti! Hope you enjoyed the show. Weds night when the weather was CRAZY and I AM STILL laughing a friend picked me up and we went out to grab food to eat. YUMMY with a funny conversation. Her H called during that time, because the 3 of us play words quite well among us and it was good to hear him laughing so hard.
    @Cormierannie ,, We have the same storm, it's raining now, should stop later. The wind is a HOWLING. ENJOY that relaxing day!! WOOHOO!!!

    Warning I got when I applied to join the bloggers - but it looks like the join went through, I wonder if it is my browser, it seems to save my posts every few seconds maybe ...
    @katiecondy1 very cute very appropriate for a CATURDAY - Gene is researching for Amigo he says he has 4 days to get him eating again. As Amigo is his cat, I will leave it to him and relax this weekend.
    Beautiful sunny day today I should get out but it is cold and not all sidewalks have been cleared. I was looking at OOFO boots but none available in Canada unless I do Amazon.ca and not doing that ... I'll find a good boot store and go there if I am gonna pay 250 for boots ...I need a wide toe box for my boots and most made elsewhere very narrow... I got barges for feet LOL
    @Tabatha_Cain enjoy your weekend and have fun what ever you get done. I agree our animals are important to us.
    @NovemberGail thank you for your encouragement, what will be will be.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 too funny about Izzy being jealous !! Cats have a certain sence about them, but they were created that way eh .. I know Amigo is always looking for when Gene comes home and sometimes he would be at the door and that told me Gene was in the building. Right now he's not doing that but he does look at GEne's direction. He fed him a raw egg yolk as he read it was ok to do so. Problem is 2 licks and he's done!! I suggested getting parmagon cheese and sprinkling a little on that but nope .. I still have a can of tuna up my sleeve and I still have the cooked liver, I might liquify it and use a dropper to feed him, but should I or not .. we will see. I allso think we should let him go on his terms. He might be telling us he's almost done.
    @everyone have a wonderful day and enjoy what ever you have planned, time for me to go dancing with my airpartner, sorta like an air guitar we all play from time to time. or drums, or ....

    @Marileighea ,, Thanks. Indeed one day at a time, if it's to overwhelming one minute or even one breath at a time. So happy to have you with us!
    @Katiecondy1 ,,, LOL IZZY SEONDS THAT CR!! Okay, I've forgotten what CR stands for? CatRus? Hope you enjoyed din din!!! And did get to relax on top of that!!
    @Lindiemaep ,, it's because the bloggers group is not public, but private. But you are in all 5% members will be in. Thanks for joining us!! We look forward to your posts and your wisdom. LOL she's still sulking, oh is she LAYING IT ON THICK!!! LOL GOOBER!! Though she did join me for Zoom for a few today so everyone could admire her, Oh hon, I am so very very sorry about Amigo. Its not an easy decision either way. We hate to say goodbye, and we keep hoping they'll turn that corner. I know with Izzy this has been going on for 2 years. Her good times are getting shorter and shorter. Enjoy that "air partner" as you dance. I am thinking he's probably light on his feet?

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Today was a busy long day of Christmas shopping with my Son. I think I have 98% done. Son took me to Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch. The Christmas parade was tonight but we didn't go. I watched part of it from the front door. I was just to tired to go this year and stand in the cold. Also did dishes and laundry before and after I got home.

    @Novembergail,, I DID THINK of you and how I put we do see deer, moose, and bears though not often in the city. This AM I was on ZOOM with a bunch of friends. One of them was telling us where I go on Tuesday night (clearly in the city I live in) 3 deer where in the parking lot when they went outside. I had missed them, but apparently they've been around quite a bit. Then I found out LOL there are some that at night are often on the walking path that goes by my window. NO WONDER Izzy LOVES to come back out here at night! I did think of you and giggle. Please do join us @EVERYONE who can on the blogging group. It's a great way to easily find the blogs from members. We read, we grow as people.

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Today was a more relaxed day. Went to church, completed writing all my cards unless I do ones for my coworkers. Knowing me I probably will. That would only be 4 more no biggie. All cards being mailed were put in the mail except the 3 going to the U.S.. Plan to redo my Christmas to-do list as it's getting hard to read. But starting to feel a little more in control and on schedule for Christmas. Plan to make gingerbread cookie dough this week at home and at work. I did enjoy an afternoon nap. Hopefully I won't need one in the morning tomorrow and I can get more done.

    Kick back day...cool and very little wind. It was nice going out to feed the birds without shivering and shaking every step of the way. I do not care how much you bundle up, that wind wends its way in to your skin so it can laugh at the goose bumps as they parade across your tummy!
    Watched lots of football..took a nap. Made a feed run to get the chickens and wild birds their rations for the month. Supper out of the way and gonna watch a cheesy Christmas movie to wrap up the day!!

    Hey Katie, I liked the idea of watching a cheesy Christmas movie. I need to keep my eyes open for one.

    Diane, will have to see if I can get thoughts collected tomorrow for the blog. At some point, I'll get there.

    So glad to get caught up with all of you! Hope everyone had a lovely Sunday.

    Again, I am keeping this short. I probably need to start getting caught up earlier.

    Word for tomorrow is TRANSFORMATION.

    @Katiecondy1 ,, Brrr sometimes the wind is cutting so badly it's BITING!! LOL I LOVE that, but I HATE being bone chilled. Hope you warned up!! I too watched football today (Chiefs lost, I was cheering them on ONLY because my oldest brother is living out there, but I FAVOR the Bengals so I was OKAY WITH THAT! Jets/Viking game I wanted the Vikings and THEY DID WIN!! WOOHOO!! Both games had us HOLLERING AT THE TV!! LOL That's always a good game!! Hope you enjoyed the rest of the night.
    @Novembergail,, It took me 2 days to get the blog done I did. I was kinda stuck, when normally words flow through me easily. You'll do it! It doesn't need be long or fancy as we all know. I hope you also enjoyed the rest of the night!! I WILL TOO!!

    Family dinner tonight at KOOK Korean BBQ very filling ! 😋
    l1rm5zfrg3lj.jpg

    Tonight the family got together - well 4 of us at the restaurant we went to last year - I really like the sweet potato noodles and I brought half of them home with me as no one else wanted any - my daughter calls them glass noodle lol - it was a nice time, but I think the meat could have been cooked a little longer - Charise, my granddaughter took over the grill ... there were some items in the small dishes that had seafood and the server was kind enough to tell us which ones so I could avoid those. In the end, I had the soup, which came later, and rice, noodle and some veggies as well as the meat. I was not overly full as you had a snippet of this meat and a snippet of the other - there was beef, pork, chicken, and dumplings ... the conversation was fairly decent as well.
    Hope everyone had a good Sunday and evening too.

    @Dpecora653,, Debbie this is perfect!! I have a friend who suffers HORRIBLY from anxiety. She burst out crying when I told her "We can only have one thought at a time. Try it while we stand here. Think of what's bothering you, and at the same time as I talk a few seconds as you do that, concentrate on my words." She did, I said "What 3 positive have happened today? It can be as simple as "the sun came out or it didn't come out, your cats and their antics or anything else." She started to smile and cried. "YOU ARE RIGHT!! We can only have one thought at a time! I hadn't realized that." Then we talked about dwelling on the positive things since what drags her down is the news and so much negativity around her. It was so neat!! Over the past few weeks she's been doing when she sees me and another friend she thanks us over and over again.
    @Patti241 ,, OH LOLOL Patti ,, OOPS but I am not surprised. It's GREAT you got out and enjoyed yourself. WOOHOO!!

    OFF I go to the grocery store in a few. I am also making a Ferris wheel from a kit of metal ,, it's supposed to light up and go around when I am done. It's an adorable kit, not really hard, but over 900 pieces. I'll post it either as I go or when I am done. I had gotten this before my GGS was born for us to do, but it's far age wise ahead of him, so I decided I'd get him one more for his age instead of waiting. LOL GRANDMA'S TURN for FUN!

    Good Afternoon Airport Friends:

    I am finally feeling well enough to check in. I am really sick. My head is pounding and just to stare at a computer screen hurts my face. So the fact that I am able to now make me feel good. I was fine all weekend with just a hoarse voice and then last night I developed a headache and went to be about 7 pm. Slept until this morning at 5 am and then called into work because it hurt to look at a computer screen and slept from 7am until 10:30 am and then went to bed again at 11 am and slept until 1. So that has been my day in a nutshell. I don't think I am getting any exercise in today. Sorry guys. I am hoping that with the help from tylenol that I will be able to go to work tomorrow. That is what I have been using today for the headache. It has been so bad. I have not hardly eaten anything today either. Not really hungry. I suppose that happens when you are really sick though.

    @cormierannie - I hope the weather gets better for you. Nice that you were able to get a short walk in the other day.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 - I did get my oil changed. I love the new laptop we bought too. It is great and it does so much more than what I use it for. I just cannot imagine not having it now.
    @NovemberGail - Cheesy Christmas movies are the thing. I love them.
    @LindieMaeP - I am glad it sounds like you had a good time. Nice that your grand daughter took over the grill.

    Well I am thinking it might be time for another nap. I am starting to feel the head get worse again. Have a good day.

    Happy Monday, read through all the posts. It was rainy this morning but just over cast now, 68 outside.
    Getting hair cut tomorrow, picked up a pointsetter and Christmas cactus today. Other than that nothing new. Have a great day and great week. Hugs and blessings.

    @Tabatha_Cain ,,,UGH sounds like what I had in Sept and many have gotten, but please do also test for covid. LOL 9 out 10 of have said we'd of rather had covid, because it'd of been over with faster. Strange statement, but so true. Please take care. Ours settled deeply in our chests. So sorry you are sick. Glad you got the oil change and WOOHOO on the laptop. I am on mine now.
    @Kurtize,,, Glad you are able to enjoy the day!! WOOHOO to that!!! It's been a nice NON STRESSFUL day here, well LOL there was drama about suddenly creating an event for the others who live here today, but it turned out so well and everyone was very pleased and happy. It's a 55 plus, we all have our own places, but I am the President of the Association Council. TIL THE END OF THE MONTH AND LOL I AM DONE (I HOPE!!) LOL

    I did go grocery shopping walking down (I was getting some heavier and bulky items so it was just easier than emptying stuff out of the car into the cart. PLUS I am only at the speed I walk now 5 mins once I am outside from being in the store). But it has tired me out. WOOHOO I'll sleep well later!

    MY NSV!! At the start of the year I wore a size up from these jeans. Now I've lost a little bit of weight, but not much about 9 lbs. HOWEVER And TY TY TY TY @Eclipsedagain ,,, thanks to her posts about doing strength training I finally kicked that INTO gear!! As we can see it's working!! LOL Much more and they'll be completely off my hips!! I could not even get into these, when they fit just right they are on my waist, hehehe funky they are just hanging on up!

    Good evening all. It's been a busy day. I made another batch of cookies and put them right in the freezer. Hung more lights outside and helped Jack hang up our huge wreath. The lights are partly out on it, so we're not even plugging it in this year. He tried to fix it but we think there's a bulb out somewhere and naturally they don't match up with any we have.
    @Grannysue91 wow, that's a beauty! I'm amazed at the time it takes to get a new car now.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 I got the Rambler reference lol!
    @Cheririddell I love that squirrel! We have a lot of them around our property. My husband isn't happy with the one who stored his nuts in the truck motor lol.
    @catnurse1 wow, I'd love to live near eagles. There aren't very many in my area.
    @Lessennan that cherry cake looks SO good!
    @SusanM18MFP those cookies all look good, I'd like to give the macarons a try myself.
    @Catwmncat I am not happy with the scale as I knew it would weigh me heavier. Why couldn't it ever go lighter??? I did not weigh in with it since I usually weigh myself Friday mornings. When I lift I always weigh heavier the next day. I was happy with the other readings though. I need to start complaining about my deliveries too!
    Have a good Monday evening!

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Tabatha - Hope you feel better soon!

    Today was a productive day. Got dishes and laundry done. Also went back to bed for a couple of hours this morning as I felt like I hit a wall. When I got up from my nap I went to the bank, post office and the grocery store. Great walk for a change. So now all cards have been mailed. Got my dry ingredients at work done for gingerbread cookies that I will mix tomorrow to put in the fridge. The residents had steakette, oven roasted potatoes, gravy, green beans, and a choice of vanilla or chocolate pudding for dinner. Everything was on schedule tonight and turned out perfectly.

    @Eclipsedagain,, LOL some of my earliest memories are of my Mom stringing lights, and a bulb missing. Her language was "colorful" but, not in an angry way, LOL Just "expressive" and the lights made sure if it every single year! I laughed at that time, and it still makes me smile. Which your post just did. She's been gone for 31 years and missed. I am pretty sure my scale did that too, but its not by much, and the scale does absolutely agree with my Dr's. Have you synched your phone to it? It's SO NEAT to download the app!! WOW THE INFO!! ENJOY!! ENJOY!! ENJOY and at such an amazing cost too!
    @Cseguin2 ,,, So sorry you didn't feel well earlier, but sounds like things turned around a little bit better. You sure did get quite a bit done. Oh I have NO DOUBT the residents enjoyed their meal!! WTG!!

    Good evening everyone, glad you all are doing well and getting things done ok. Just stayed home today and chilled after the Korean BBQ that part was cool but the driving around to find a vap shop that sold the CBD for Amigo was a pain - I stayed in the car, I have no need to go into those shops although my granddaughter got bath balls at the one that finally had the CBD oil. Gene gave him a bit last night and so far he's had 3 tiny shots of it and tonight he was grooming himself, so nice to see and of course he was on my bed today too - has not been on my bed in 2 weeks. But still too weak to jump up on the dresser - he looked then looked up at the bed, so I picked him up and put him on it and he curled up and went to have a nap. Feeding him is still hard to do, he ate some plain greek yogurt this morning ok, just a teaspoon as he can only have 2 tbs a week - so 3 tsp to a tbs so I am weaning it out by tsp. I wish he would eat his other food and not be so uninterested, he's lost 7 lbs now and is so bony it is sad, however, I used my blender and I took a can of his meat, a tbs of water and liquified it so I can get it in one of the syringes we used for his meds, he's not happy but he is getting something.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 we are getting snow tomorrow - best cover up that belly button eh ? You don't wanna get a cold LOL Good for you for the pants not fitting the right way - and I have read that resistance training is crucial for weight loss not just aerobic. So I will be looking for some resistance training I can do at home. No bands though ...
    @Tabatha_Cain I sure hope you are feeling better but do hope you do a Covid test just to rule it out. There are some serious flus going around for sure. I only just started feeling better after having a cold like flu all NOV and it did not go into my chest but man my sinuses ran a lot ! So I hope you feel better and glad the tylenol helped, it helped me a lot too!
    Well thank you everyone for your posts, have a wonderful night and enjoy what ever you have planned.

    @Lindiemaep ,,, Poor Amigo. Poor you and Gene, he's lost so much weight. Its so hard to see them go through the end stage of life.
    Hmmm we STILL DO NOT HAVE ANY SNOW!! SIGH SIGH!! This global warming thing needs TO GO BACK to NORMAL, but we both well know it will not due to greed as we currently see it. Glad I am nice and warm, bothers me on how many are not so fortunate.
