Good morning! It is a chilly 33 degrees here this morning with a wind chill of 25. We had a light snow overnight that wasn't in our forecast. There isn't much accumulation, but it put a white coating on everything. I guess that Winter needed one last Hurrah! Hope that you all have a great day!

Good morning! It was 35 here at 7:30 when I walked out back with the dogs. Brrr. Happy to have new digs for spring, Mel. Hoping we each and all have a great 3 months, even if the groundhog lied about spring coming early. It's finally here, and that's what counts.

short, sarcastic vent follows/An older cousin, who sees herself as the 'queen of everything' - and has even in the past posted a video of herself sincerely doing the cupped hand wave - made some patronizing remarks about a comment I made on her daughter's facebook page this morning. I know, I know - I shouldn't let it bother me at all. I have a pretty good relationship with her daughter, and maybe that's the root of things today. Cousin and daughter have had a rocky road relationship in past years and cousin says how wonderful their relationship is now, but I don't know if that's true or just a segment of her 'queen routine'. Maybe she's jealous of the fact that her daughter & I get along, I don't know. Anyway, I wanted to call her out, remind her I'm not stupid! But, she'd have responded like my mother - fake deer eyes & commenting that she doesn't know why I'd say that, she didn't mean anything by what she said. Cousin is on my dad's side of the family, but by golly, she acts like my mother & her side of the family. / Thanks for letting me rant - I just discovered the truth is in those last 2 sentences. *lightbulb goes on* I hadn't realized that before. Maybe I'll better be able to simply keep moving forward, no matter how cousin behaves. ______________________________________ Hope y'all have a Terrific Tuesday!

Thanks for letting me rant I'm always happy to listen even if I don't have any advice to offer. I've often thought that it is a shame that we can't just certain people when they annoy us. That might not help the situation, but it would be oh so satisfying.

I love that groundhog meme, but I prefer tea over coffee. It's been a while since I did taco Tuesday, so for lunch today I picked up a couple of soft tacos and a burrito from Taco Bell. I finished fixing up the few Easter cards that I wanted to send out this year and dropped them in the mail. Some of the Rapture Date setters on my Facebook have been getting themselves all worked up over a Blood Moon eclipse that is supposed to happen next week during the Jewish feast of Purim. It would be fine with me if our Departure did come that soon, but I am not holding my breath given how many false date predictions these folks have promoted before.

This line is soooo true: "That might not help the situation, but it would be oh so satisfying." Tomorrow's gonna be a better day. See you all in the morning!

Good morning! It's currently 55, but it doesn't feel more than 39 - no matter that the wind is barely moving the anything outside. I turned the heat up to 72 because I'm cold. I've let the dogs out back twice, but told them it's too cold for me so I didn't go with them. We've planned dinner - going to have a stir fry with baby bok choy and added favorite stir fry veggies, some tofu and 1 leftover turkey cutlet. And we've had breakfast (I fed the dogs about 8 a.m. so they're good to go till Edward feeds them lunch). I've dealt with a couple of tenants who aren't yet paid in full for the month, and a tenant who is insisting he can't do dishes because his dishwasher won't run (parts are on order). I've nearly smothered, swallowing a mouthful of laughter & words to keep from asking him 'why' he can't handwash dishes? (Handwashing - what a concept! ) He's a hoot - always telling us he's an engineer, and that with his "intelligence" he knows what's wrong with his hot water heater (nothing is wrong with it, but we are sending an electrician to see what's tripping the breakers, if they're actually tripping). Nita, Iris, & I have all been groaning with laughter this week, dealing with that guy - the plumber was laughing this morning too, as soon as I said the address (tenant says plumbing is now backing up). So far, other than getting a guy from the service dept to order parts for the dishwasher, nothing has been wrong with that house, in spite of his complaints. He's only lived there a month. Can't hardly believe he's going to last a year. Okay, gotta pay a couple of bills and head west for the afternoon. Hope y'all have a great day!
