Good morning, I'm off to a dentist appointment this morning. Not the most pleasant place to be especially when last week at this time I was getting ready to go backpacking. I can't wait to get out backpacking again when the deer season is over. On a positive note my neck is almost healed and barely leaking at all so I can drink liquids again. It's so nice being able to have a hot or cold drink. I have a feeling my feeding tube will get pulled in two weeks. A weekend storm is coming for Sunday with snow and rain.

Good morning!
Glad to hear it Rich! Hope the dentist goes well.

Brownies today. =) And I get to go grocery shopping. Whoooo-hoo. I actually look forward to it when the cupboards get as bare as they are right now.
Have a good one all.

Good morning. It's payday, sometime within the next 24 hours. Checks are written and ready to roll. I've started to supplement my wood burner with the main furnace in the basement. I'm already tired of getting up to 55 degrees and then taking quite a long time to inch up into the mid-60's. I'll still save fuel money, but not as much. A little comfort's important too.

Good luck with the dentist, Rich.

I don't know if it was a programming issue, but we always got Captain Kangaroo instead, LOL  

a-Ha! --- according to wikipedia HD ended his 14 year run on NBC in 1960 when I was about 2.   So it may be a memory issue.

I think Clarabell ended up being Mr. Green Jeans on the Captain's show....which started after Howdy Doody stopped in '58 or '59...

My girl is STILL sleeping! She's been down since 9 last night, with one feeding at 5AM. WOW! She must be growing and needs the extra sleep. I bet she won't nap today, though.

Cleaning day. We have company coming tomorrow.

Have a good one!

That was good news, RichB...

warmed up last night...16F right now...it's the wind that gets ya:(

I slept in today then treated myself to fried eggs covered in the same, gruyere cream sauce I had made for Thanksgivings creamed onions, a great cup of coffee and a Scandi shake for some extra calories...

Since we're gonna probably see some snow later, this morning I will go to the storage unit and haul the Christmas decorations back here where I can store them in my shed! have I mentioned how much I LOVE my shed?

I'm going to finish my mother's sweater and generally take it easy this week-end...pneumonia takes such a l-o-n-g time to leave the body...sigh...

What are you doing this week-end?

What am I doing this weekend? Well, thank you for asking...gotta get the back blade on the tractor just in case the blizzard hits. Gotta get the tractor out of the cold and into the garage or pole barn, so I gotta stack some firewood from the truck and make some room. I also might as well move the riding lawnmower forward in the garage so there's some room for the trailer, but first I gotta make some more room on that side of the garage. However, it's payday and maybe I'll just go to town and act like a drunken sailor...

Good morning, Matahari I hope you can get rid of that pneumonia soon.
It's cold here with a strong wind. No hiking for me today because it's still deer season. I was hoping to get started on a sewing project, but the fabric wasn't delivered yesterday. I hope it's in the mail today.

Hey all.

Praying for healing mataharihiker! Still in between seasons here, icy and snowy, not deep enough yet to ski.

19 °F, Overcast, Snow depth 2", and another storm coming tonight. This one is supposed to really dump on the mountains. THINK SNOW!

No kids in the house, wife is asleep, the coffee is hot. Listening to Mark Simeone interview Leonard Nimoy.
