    Before I became an attorney, I was a sales and marketing guy. I am always interested in how to use words to create positive associations with well liked things or positive emotions. Sometimes I see a business name that I cannot believe someone chose. Read the hair salon name below...and then take a comfortable seat

    That made me giggle!

    Day isn't quite over but being optomistic. Snow storm coming our way shortly! I think I may have jinxed myself with the statement about a blissful Autumn!

    Image reminds me of my Dad :) . We would have Halloween parties with initiation to one such party being a seat in the electric chair. My Dad had rigged up an old wood rocking chair with metal plates fastened to the wide arms to which he further wired an old crank telephone. We kids would take turns at the crank each time a guest arrived, thereby delivering a mild electric shock.

    Just thinking...I might be the only one on this forum who grew up with a crank telephone until we finally got a dial phone as I became an older teenager. Party lines of 6-8 people were quite the experience. Our phone number was 10F15 which was one long ring and 5 short rings to which we would answer. A neighboring telephone with number 10Y22 would answer upon a ring of 2 shorts and 2 longs. Am I ever revealing my age!

    2nd monitor on computer died. Will need to get another one. So used to having the extra screen real estate.

    @RangerRickL. I agree. What were they thinking?

    @w8goal4life. I'm only old enough to remember rotary dial telephones (and then finally the introduction of mobile phones).

    I cannot function without at least 2 monitors anymore. Recently upgraded my PC and got a video card that can support up to 4, can't wait to expand to at least 3!!

    Exercise - yup, 25 mins Pilates and my PT stuff and I got to t in even though it meant having to wake up at 4:30 in order to get it in. Go me!
    Calories- under
    Tracked - yes

    @craigo3154 - I never understood why my husband loved having large monitors until he upgraded and I got his “old” one! It was twice the width of my old one. Best thing ever for working on my lesson plans!

    I’m back at the farm, which is about 50 miles west of downtown Chicago. I love living at the edge of the urban world but not yet surrounded by it. Housing keeps getting closer every year.
    Calories: under by a nice margin
    Exercise: travel day intentionally walk the terminals to get my exercise
    Tracking: good
