Our car insurance is around £350 a year. John beats them down every year. Can't believe the cost of Rita 's car!!!!

Good morning, ladies.
We have had a few days of milder weather. Still below 0 Celsius and our snow has pretty much disappeared. Getting just a few flurries this morning but they are forecasting snow Sunday. DD and family are coming for a visit on Sunday so hopefully the roads will be ok for travel. They live in Edmonton so about an hour and a half travel time.
Made pastry this morning as I want to serve a pumpkin pie with supper for them. Was rolling it out for the pie plate and realized that I forgot to add the sugar. I’m hoping it still will be ok. Don’t think it will make a big differences as it is 2 teaspoons of sugar in 5cups of flour and the pumpkin filling is sweet….at least that is what I’m trying to convince myself of as it is too late to do anything about it. Hate when I make errors like that. Just about had a problem with my pumpkin filling also. Had a small pie pumpkin that I cut up and decided to cook it in my new Ninja Speedi as it has a steam and bake function. Set it up for 30 minutes and decided to check it at the 20 minute mark. Pumpkin pieces were all cooked and a few were getting brown roasted marks on them. I cut off the roasted pieces and puréed the rest….turned out nice and I have exactly 2 cups in the fridge. Will make it tomorrow evening.

Wednesday – Joe gave needed hug when I finally accepted that NO dermatology practice in the state of Oregon offers general anesthetic for MOHS surgery. Nearest that offers “conscious sedation” is Portland, six hours away. Will have to make do with local, and perhaps an anti-anxiety rx if I can get one from PCP. Now THAT’s motivation to start meditation practice again. ;{
Later, lighter, lovelies!

I took a couple panadol and a gravol before my nose skin cancer removal last year. Then during the local and surgery, I did box breathing and sang Christmas carols to myself in my head.

I struggled yesterday with updating price lists in the system at work. Some files are automatically downloaded by business system folks. Others I have to do. The ones that are excel I can do easily as I just have to rearrange columns in the proper order. Right now I am struggling to convert 2 rtf (?) files into one excel file. Why the manufacturer does that is beyond me! Machka?
Much love,
Kylia in Ohio
Are the files rft? Text files of some sort? Is there any sort of character separating the columns? Or are the columns a consistent character length? If so, getting them into Excel isn't difficult.
Or are the files pdf? If so, that's a bit more challenging.

Car Insurance Someone was surprised at a $140 monthly insurance bill, I pay $148 for my 2018 Subaru Outback an month and only $48 for my RV that I live in. I am in NM, a depressed state so I can imagine it being a lot higher in a place like New England.
RVRita in NM
I got ours down to about $65/month for the most used van and about $50/month for the least used van.

Thank you, Kim and KJ and others for your thoughts on the monitors. I'm still considering the options.

Karen - so very sorry about your brother. Loved his artwork.
KJ - one year we had a Halloween blizzard in Sioux Falls. No one made it out to trick or treat. Good to see you posting.
Cloudy and in the 50s here. Planning to get groceries this afternoon. Have my menus done for the week and list made.
Everyone take care, Sue in WA3 -
Zentangles-
I'm probably late to the party - I believe one or more of you have mentioned Zentangles - Machka maybe? Rita? I just talked to my next door neighbor who said she does these every morning. They are very calming, help relieve her stress. I remember doing something like this when I was in high school. Here are a few videos:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4WEXnpN2Sw

Joy - I bet your pie crust will be just fine. Good job baking the pumpkin.
Annie - it's good that you now have a date for your mom coming home and gives you time to prepare.
The culvert replacement is done. Interesting watching them remove the old rusted pipe and putting in a brand new heavy duty poly pipe that should last as long as I live here...another 25 years? Who knows, lol.
I walked down the road several times this morning to check the progress and got to meet up and chat with several of my neighbors, which is always a treat.
