Hi all! Sorry it's been awhile so i am enjoying catching up on here. I'm in Northwest NJ so we got pounded last week twice with snow. This week it's just been 10-29 degrees so nothing has melted. Today got up to 34 so we've had stuff melting but we also have rain.
@kaliswalker -lol I'm not from Canada but those would be my jars too!

Happy mid week

Another nice day here, it started to thaw so we worked on the clearing off the patio. It is so nice to be able to walk out the front door and not have to crawl over the snow bank. And now the UPS guy can get to the door.
@tabatha_Cain the only time our cats get in on the bed is when I take a nap and let them up. We have always had the rule that pets don't belong in the bedroom, but I enjoy their company once in awhile. Kenny wants to cuddle up, and Shorey wants his place at the foot of the bed.

Day 24 of 2024 miles in 2024 and I had 6.00 miles yesterday.
Day 24 of 75 Hard Complete and now beginning Day 25 with my morning hydration drink. 16OZ bottle of water, hydration stick and table salt.

Another good day here even if this as about the 3rd day of fog, cloudy, and absolutely no sun shine. I do miss that. Got a call this morning from son 2 asking how we were feeling and beings we are both okay, he said they were coming this weekend to install the new flooring. Him and his wife do it as a team job, and we just have to stay out off there way. That shouldn't be to hard, but I dearly love my DIL and will miss our talks as she will be doing all the cutting and son does all the laying. Just have to do the meals, and that shouldn't be to hard, except DIL doesn't eat pork, just can't stand it, She says it stinks,, so I always have chicken for her, maybe Meat Loaf, of Tator Tot casserole, those always goes over really well. Naybe ever Chili and Grilled cheese sandwichs. WE will have to see what I come up with. Have a great evening and that a little ME TIME. Linda

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Friday and I am looking forward to this weekend and being able to relax. Yesterday at work they started a call session tracker. So I have to log all the calls I make offering people memberships. I have to check off if I dialed a number, then another check if they answered, a check if I got a membership, a check if they said ok to an auto quote, and an explanation as to why they declined the auto quote. So that is going to take a lot of my day. I was only able to get about 34 calls in yesterday because it takes so long to fill out that piece of paper. Then at the end of the day I have to email it to my boss. I get both sides of it. It will protect me if I don't meet my goals, showing the effort I put into it, so I get it. Change is just upsetting for me. I will get used to it. I am sure.

@imustloseit1 - Those foods all sound amazing. I am partial to the chili. I love venison chili and I make it a decent amount. I think I made it in December last and I am thinking of making it again this month. Probably this weekend. That is awesome that you are getting new flooring. Even more awesome that your son and his wife are installers for it. Where are you putting the new flooring? I need my living room, porch, and kitchen redone. It is going to cost a lot. I am thinking of doing it myself.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Yes I am sure they will be. Although the kitties are not liking the change process right now. We have one that will wait by our bedroom door so that as we open it she darts in and then hides under the bed so we cannot get her out. So we always have to slowly open the bedroom door and rush inside or rush out of the bedroom by squeezing our body between the door and the door frame to keep her out.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Friday.

@Tabatha_Cain , My Mom always did our flooring. Maybe that was a thing back at that time? Maybe not, I am not sure. But, she did am AMAZING JOB!! She didn't make any errors that I saw and LOLOLOL I am such a BRAT I DID LOOK!! Not to fault her though, but because the woman was simply AMAZING!! ITs easy to see where I get my "I'll TRY THAT" attitude!! My Mom was this way, and of course I learned from her, and no doubt genetics play into that also. HAVE FUN with it!! Ask questions over and over from those who have done such. ITs from my Mom also I learned to stay UP with the trends I like and not to be pressured by those I DO NOT! ENJOY the weekend!

I hope you are doing well this morning. Today is Sunday and it is Church from home day. Next week we will be going up to church. We may actually go stay with Joe's parents. Not sure yet. Depends on if they are sick, or if I can get my son to come watch the dogs that weekend. Probably not, I may have to look at kenneling them. That might be something we should think about doing. It might actually be a good idea. Then I would be able to guarantee that the puppies get their medicine.

@Dianedoessmiles1 - That is true. Most calls now a days are scams. So most people don't answer their phone. Although you would think with the number tied to AAA that it would not come across as a scam. Now it makes me think my number at work may possibly come up as potential scam. When I get to work on Monday I am going to call myself and see how it comes up. That was awesome of you to tell that person to not rent an apartment to whoever has been using your phone number. I am sure that person really appreciated it. That landlord now gets to save himself a lot of hassle.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.
