Well - today - after spending yesterday evening trying to shoehorn as much of our stuff as we can from our main room and the small bedroom into the main bedroom and kitchen - we had the flooring guys here ripping up the old laminate floor that was in a sorry state. Then the put a layer of plywood down and nailed it into place every 8in or so. Tomorow they lay our new LVT Flooring. Just another tick on the long list of things we need to do on our new old home that we moved into back in May. We're geting there - slowly! :ROFLMAO:

I have worked in TV most of my adult life..My husband still does.. and I have only ever heard of Brtitbox on this forum...lol.. hardly popular.. never heard of Comcast and PBS is a very minor channel on our TV

yes totally agree about our Actors looking more like normal people..rather than mannequins.. and we tend to want people to concentrate on the storyline and the plot instead of the hairstyle and the fixed plastic smile..

PBS is a minor channel here as well, but I like it. I am watching a show called “Annika” on masterpiece threaten which has my favorite female British actor in it. She is the lead. But I can never figure out what here name it 😳 so I can’t tell it to you. I really should Google it 😂.

I like the actor who plays Vera as well. She is not very well “put together” which is extremely realistic. Comcast is a major cable provider in my area. I think I am going to take Britbox. Still thinking about it. 😊
 
Very windy outside today and cold. Can’t use my walker so I have to use two canes and take shorter walks. I will use the treadmill when it snows or gets too cold, but walking outside as long as I can.

Finally settled on which coat I wanted from Costco. The long one, one size larger than I wear, so I can comfortably wear a sweater under it. It is knee length on me as I am so short. It’s a bit heavier than I like but very warm in the wind. I bought the rose colored one-😂-a bit bright for me but you only live once.

Rearranged the living room, yet again. 🙄. Did the dishes. Usual stuff. Was going to go buy a lottery ticket but way to windy to drive to Idaho 😢. Oh, well, I would have just wasted my money anyway.

Do you mean Nicola Walker ?... she's a great actress, I loved her in Last Tango in Halifax but I sometimes get a little tired of her same Pathos in every role
 
Yesterday late afternoon GS and I went to MA to celebrate GF's birthday and I met her parents.

They had Vietnamese delivered; it was very good. Her mother made an excellent chocolate cake. I'm glad I met them; they're so nice and we had some good laughs.

Her parents actually invited me for Thanksgiving! I declined as it's too far. They don't live near their daughter; they're even farther away.

Another 75 degree day here, same as yesterday. It will cool down tomorrow they say.

Today, I made macaroni salad with shrimp.

Good grief, @Right Now, they don't have enough poll workers to break it up into shifts? That is a long time! But kudos to you for being a positive part of the process

@CinnamonSugar, other counties around us are beginning to to use two shifts, and it's working for them. We would have more than the necessary workers if the time worked was 8 hrs instead of 16. We've brought it up at training sessions for a few years now. They say we don't have enough workers to cover now.....blockheads, I guess. Hopefully, next year, sigh. It is a brutal day.

Aneeda, do take Britbox, it is soooo worth it. We just got it a few months ago and I have already watched these series....Midsomer Murders, Mackenzie and Dodds, The Vicar of Dibley which was hilarious, and now working on Shakespeare and Hathaway which I love.

And I was not a tv person but becoming a couch potato now o_O

Thanks, I am going to take it, but might wait till December since we won’t be going anywhere and I’ll probably be healing from another pacemaker 😡surgery and unable to do anything.
 
Winterizing! Cleaning the chimney and wood stove. Getting firewood in the wood rack. Running motors of outdoor equipment dry of gas. Surface tilling the garden (to run my mini-tiller out of gas). Last night our chill factor was way down there due to high winds and snow and very cold temps are on the way! I am beat!
 
I went grocery shopping at Aldi's today. I actually went there and it saved me the delivery charge etc. This is the second time this year I have actually gone to the store. I figure I saved about 40.00 because the place I was shopping at got way too expensive for me. The other store wanted over 7.00 for a loaf of the bread I like. They just lost a customer with all their high prices.

I still may go to the other store for avocados. I will not buy much there any longer.

Listening to blues music 🎶 with my babies.

Haven't done much else today.
