Good morning..

Overcast here this morning . Will try to do what didn't get done yesterday. I have an outside window that needs its face washed also.

Covid and influenza has reared it ugly head back up here. We are to get our 5th shot on Tue....right after our Thanksgiving.

Jane, you have a lot of mustard now and can really "cut the mustard" I will also mix a bit of mustard with honey and a dab of mayo to dip chicken strips in. Today I am taking breaded chicken and vacuum sealing them to freeze. Nice to just be able to pick out a package and put them in the air fryer to heat up..

Enjoy your day and stay safe

Lloyd...  

Phyllis, I think we missed your birthday...I think it is the same day Kyle's is...yesterday.

Happy Belated birthday  and I hope your day was special..  

Good Morning Everyfriend...those who have been here and those who are missing.

LLOYD, that was a pretty smart little boy!

AMY, I miss a little mustard, mayo and spices and put it on a cut up tomato and that's my lunch lots of days.  Didn't think about adding a bit of honey.  Maybe I'll try that next time.

Cooper arrived, had his breakfast, shared mine, waited while I got dressed and we went for a DOUBLE walk this morning.  We got back to the corner where we would turn to go home and he chose to go straight so we went around the OTHER circle, too.  I have my second cup of coffee and he's conked out on the sofa.  Guess it tired out both of us.

Looks like someone fixed up this place.  I got right in this morning and it's not "pushing me around" and making me wonder if I'll lose my post!

PHYLLIS, I missed your birthday, too.  SO....

 

FYI - See

I thought sure I posted here yesterday, but do not see it😩

Anyhoo......I am up to speed on all of your news.....

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY WISHES to Mr. Kyle. 

I did send you a message, PHYLLIS, but just incase you did not see it.....I hope you had a wonderful day and best wishes for many more to come🦋🦋🦋

Oh does that mustard ever sound yummy....anything with extra taste right now excites me.  Getting a bit bored with our keto diet. 🤪🤪

It has been a busy week.  We had our yearly physicals on Tuesday.  Our Internists is totally against our Keto Diet. Oh Lordy.....now what do I do?  One of my doctors will NOT be happy with me.

Yesterday  I saw the cardiologist and found out the results of my Holter Heart Monitor.  All is good......nothing in it that concerned the doctor🤪🤪. That pretty much finishes up all the scheduled tests to see WHY I need supplemental oxygen.  My cardiologist still wants me on a CPAP for six months to see if it will help.  Oh my.....so over all of this. I appreciate all they have done for me......I am certainly thankful they have not found any health issues.....but now what?  Without a doubt movng to a lower altitude would be beneficial.....but that is not a easy decision to make.  We are needed her to help support Dr. Dave and the children🤷

So happy our site here is up and running fine again.....thank you, Michael‼️

Have a great day.

Jenny

Denver, --- The site had a problem yesterday. Not many posts made it OK.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone.   It was a very good day and a busy.  When I was younger I didn't like to tell my age but I am much older now so I'll brag that I made it to 93.... Never thought that would happen!  

Good evening and good Night everyone. It Is clouddy here and the sun has gone down. I sure hope some of those clouds leake a Little, we sure could use some moisture. phyllis I sure hope you Keep on going so I can keep foloing. with My 85 years. lot of sad these days but also I enjoy our younger grand and great grand's. I wih more of us would kept on using the switches off of the trees in the yard on the children when the got too wield and settled them down some. the old saying spare the rod and spoil the chield had a lot of truth in it. just so we did not use it too hard, just enough to have gotten there attion. Hope to see you all tomorow, in good sperits and health. Good night and sweet dreams.

Except for about an hour and a half when I was reading my book, I've been on the go all day!  It's been a beautiful day and I've been in and out all day with Cooper for walks and feeding the birds and sweeping off the two porches.  Did a lot of putting away inside and and outside. 

Now I'm ready for a shutdown.  So I think I'll take my book and read in bed until I'm too sleepy to keep my eyes open. 

JENNY, nice to see you!  You have some tough decisions to make.  I'm sure the altitude is contributing to some of your breathing problems.  We all do what we must!

I had some tough medical news from my Okla daughter these last couple days but it looks like things are going to be Ok for her.  She spent a couple days in the hospital and is now home with a medicine to take regularly.  It was a bit scary but I think it's going to be all right!

AMY,  I forgot to wish KYLE a happy day so...

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, KYLE!  AND MAY YOU CELEBRATE MANY MORE!

Now I'm off to the haystack with my book!  I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow and may God bless us, every one!

Good Morning everyome , Looks Like I am the first one In this morning. and Shirley was last One here last night, I will check back in Later on today, I wish you all a great day just like you ould like, we are @ 36º now and clear, but is saying frost out there.

Lloyd

Lloyd

LLOYD, that was me (JANE) last in last night.  I'll be back later!

Good morning..

Another frosty one out there this morning. Not sure what is happening today.....lots to do thouh.

I gave Kyle your birthday wishes and he said thank you. 

Jane, happy to read all is well in Ok.. hard on you being so far away..

I have no idea on how Jesse thinks, he has started to bring wood in the house again??? Nothing  all summer long but now the colder weather has set in wood is being brought in at night.

Enjoy your day and stay safe..

Amy, in my opinion, animals are more connected with nature than humans; he's denning. My Farrah isn't as altruistic. Often I sit on the couch in the evening, and she brings me her cat comb! She's not a fan of idle hands!

Oh my gosh..it is lightly        Way too soon...

Amy, you beat me to it! I had an entire post planned with a "Bet you wish you were here" headline!

Special Weather Statement issued October 07 at 3:14PM AKDT by NWS Fairbanks

...A Mix of Rain and Snow Across the Interior Saturday afternoon into Sunday...

A strong front will bring a mix of rain and snow is expected across the Interior Saturday afternoon into Sunday. Precip will begin over the western Interior on Saturday then push across the Interior on Sunday. Precipitation could be heavy at times on Sunday. At valley level, such as in Fairbanks, most of the snow should melt as it hits the ground but less than an inch is possible at valley level. At elevations above 1000 feet, between 2 and 4 inches of snow accumulation is possible, especially along the Elliott and Dalton highways. Up to 6 inches in the Alaska Range. West winds gusting to 30 mph over summits are possible on Sunday. Turning colder Sunday night into Monday.

Patricia, we usually do get snow in Oct ......the last part not the first part!! Turned out to be a nice day, just enough wind to blow the laundry dry in no time.

Way back in 2016, back when it was somewhat normalized, our first snow generally came with Halloween. Certainly not normal in recent years!

I'm back!  And Cooper is here and he's begging my lunch! 

I made that potato soup recipe that you put in the Recipe forum.  Since I was already into it and discovered two things I didn't have and had to make substitutes, I'll have to let you know how it turned out.  I'm thinking that what I used won't make a lot of difference but I won't really know that, will I?  I will know if it tastes good, though.

Please keep the snow in the "nether" regions for now.  I'll take it on Christmas Eve after I get home from church.  I might take one more sometime in November but not Thanksgiving weekend, please!

I'm going to can some apples (maybe) this afternoon.  And I HAVE to read some of my book this afternoon.  It's getting suspenseful!

Enjoy the rest if your day...AMY, PATRICIA, LLOYD and anyone else who drops by!

Jane, sent you an email...

For those with rural and or midwestern tastes

Got the email, AMY.  I haven't done the apples yet but I'm thinking about doing them in bite size chunks.  Do you think that would work?

I made that potato soup today and it was scrumptious.  I had to make a couple of changes but they worked.  I don't know how different it tastes but it sure does taste um-um- good!

Cooper is spending the night with me.  We're doing a trade-out.  My son and DIL are away for the weekend and Frankie is looking after their doggie and I'm looking after her doggie.  Seems reasonable to me!

I'm going to take him out one more time tonight and then get ready for bed!  I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow and may God bless us, every one

Not sure how this works, off in a campground in MO but be home tomorrow if nothing else goes wrong. Side door lock won't open, we've replaced it before but sure in inconvenient trying to haul bags of trash out the driver side door and really an extra effort with an ailing cat that likes to lay in her bed right over the driver's seat.  Poor baby, she been showing signs of last days but hoped the trip wouldn't push her over the edge. They always hate the drive but love the scenery when we stop. Did get to my class reunion/luncheon and do think probably my last to drive so far. To make matters worse, my cell won't let me answer part or most of the time, don't know why but betcha one of my kids will figure it out. This iPadPro has cellular (sp?) thanks to my daughter, they try hard to keep track of me. My son wired the house with cameras that notify me on the iPad with a dingdong as well as lets him know, in all directions, video that goes on forever. Even with all that protection I don't like shouting to the world I'm going to be away until I am almost home. The house was broken in the first year we lived in it so always uneasy about leaving.

Happy Birthdays to Kyle & Phyllis, and think Amy will be celebrating Thanksgiving Day tomorrow, right?  I had hoped to find fresh picked apples and tomatoes today but no running around for me. It got super cold last night & while COLD is my fav weather, I didn't bring a winter coat so kinda chilly all day. Have warm jammies & robe so didn't get out of them & didn't go out for a walk. These Corp of Engineer campgrounds have power & RV has TV, I always bring enough food for an army so sung as a bug in my own world. Well, I don't know how to enlarge text or color on the iPad so doubt if y'all want to read the tiny. That's all for now!

Cell Towers have more power than your phone. Maybe you are at the fringe of service area.

Good Night and sweet dreams everyone.

Good morning...

Dark out there, with a temp of 41°. Remember when it would be light out at this hour??

Thanksgiving is on Monday but a lot of people are holding it today.  We are having ribs ,along with roasted carrots,parsnips,turnip and whatever else I might throw in the  dish.

Will be looking after neighbours furkids today and tomorrow.

Jane, that should work out. I used my apple peeler and it will also core and slice, I then took the slices and cut them in quarters.

Shirley ,thank you passing your message onto Kyle.

Enjoy your day everyone and stay safe.
