Is that the Jack Reacher t.v.show? I just finished season 3.

It's been a few years since I watched the Percy Jackson movies, but I remember that I enjoyed them.

I just realized we are talking about two different shows! You probably mean Jack Ryan because Reacher only has two seasons. I considered watching Jack Ryan but never got around to it.
 
Got up about 5. We did have some sleet and snow, I let the dogs or took them out and it is rear end freezing cold. I will say big dog looked quite majestic in his fluffy black furry coat. I got him back in with a hot dog! Then he has proceed to bark for 30 minutes cause he wants to be out. He finally has settled.

I would let him play more but he was barking out there and I don't want him upsetting the neighbors that are still sleeping.
 
Maggiecat let me sleep this morning until 5:30.

Today will be our last "warm" day for at least a week. The weathernerds are having a wonderful time shrieking about how cold it's going to be and about a teeny, tiny bit of sNOw or maybe ice in a couple of remote rural counties waaaay northwest of us. It's been high drama on the weather forecasts for days now, but when you think about it, a big nothing compared to what the rest of the country is getting.

I'm going to make myself go out and plant daffodil bulbs. I don't wanna, but I'm gonna because any later and they won't bloom in the spring (64 more days!). Hm. That reminds me. Maybe talk DD into taking me to the garden center to get bulb fertilizer.

There's laundry on the to-do list and dishes in the sink and vacuuming and then folding/hanging up all those darned clothes. What'll I do first?

I have to decide whether to eat the rest of my hamburger-veggie soup or the tamales I got yesterday. Or the stuffed mushrooms that DD brought me. Or maybe ice cream instead of good-for-me real food. Or maybe leftover soup for breakfast?

Time to get moving.

Also very likely. Folks that have video surveillance have reported that.

happens here a lot... one person on the neighbourhood app, actually witnessed the delivery guy get out of the car, and do that very thing then drive away with the package.

Another asked for the package to be left at the back door. her CCTV showed him going around the back with the package, then coming back to the van with it... but she was sent a photo showing it was delivered to her door..
 
It sounds like I have been lucky. I have never had a package stolen or said delivered that was not. And our packages are left on top of the mailboxes downstairs where anyone could pick it up. Of course we have video cameras everywhere here but they do not pick up who that package is addressed to. UPS and FedX both will leave the biggest and heaviest packages outside the lobby doors instead of ringing an apartment to get access to come inside. Sometimes they even drop them off at the bottom of those stairs. I have had to get down the stairs and come back up with a heavy box and it is not easy.

Not sure what I will be doing today. Probably not going outside though. 12 degrees right now.
 
So far, knock wood, we haven't had a package stolen. So far. It would have been nice to have that stupid 14 lb smoked turkey taken. It's taking up room in the freezer.

Soup and crusty French bread for breakfast won.

There's a load of laundry going. Litterbox has been emptied. Dressed. I need to get dressed.

Would you believe that the sun is shining brightly? No telling how long it will last, but it's shining right now.
 
In the lobby we have boxes with keys for medium sized packages from the post office. Everything else comes right to the door. I’ve never had anything stolen. The back building has a different address but it’s part of the same complex. Occasionally one of my boxes ends up there. If I get something from that building I walk it over and leave it outside their condo door. My friends and I hang bags of stuff for each other on our doors and nothing has been stolen.

Today I have to take the dogs to the groomer and need to buy some small paint brushes. I’m finishing sanding my bathroom vanity and then will paint it tomorrow. My handyman is going to hang the fancy bathroom mirror I bought that’s really pretty and then the bathroom is done fairly cheap. My son already replaced the toilet, lights, towel bars, sink and faucet.
 
I have had something stolen from the front door and I spoke about it then and since. WE caught the guy on our Ring doorbell Camera.. clear as a bell picking up an expensive box of wines, which the delivery driver had left on the doorstep ( no-one believed us that a driver could be so stupid but it was true)..

Anyway we'd not long had the video ring doorbell, and my o/h was incensed because this was a corporate gift he received every year. He printed out pictures of the thief, and posted them in peoples' doors.. and called the police. Well in those days the ring doorbell was a new thing to them, and no doubt they were fascinated by it.. and so when they saw the thief, they knew him.. apparently he was an habitual thief.. and they arrested him.

He went to court..( we didn't need to go ).. and was fined (more than it would cost for him to buy the wine) and told to pay us compensation. He never did.. tho'.. but I still have the court paperwork here.. with his full name
 
My caregiver lady just call ed to check on me, does this on mondays and fridays, and of all the luck someone STOLE her car on saturday!!!!!! What a shame...now she has to wait for car rental place to get her into a rental via state farm...it was 10 yr old something, but looked like it was new, she took good care of it....amazing that the crooks will be out in this frigid weathger to steal cars.......:mad:(n)
 
Had been taking Mac out the basement door,, so he could go potty out of the wind.

Today's bright sunshine makes him think its fine to go out for a longer walk.
So on went his new coat which zipper up the back.
Afraid his upright ears would get frosted,,, cut a sleeve out of one of my old sweat shirts.
Was a snug fit,,his ears were covered for a bit,, till he shook his head.

We did get a walk around the woodpile.
Got his business done,, asked him 'ready to go in?'

With this cold I think I could let him off the leash.

Hope everyone is staying warm.🥰

You are right, I usually do confuse the two names. I have not started Reacher, yet. But I do hope to get around to it. I'm not even sure if it's available (for free) to me. I'll need to look into it.

Life right now has gotten so......complicated. Between taking care of "The Girls", so that they don't freeze in these awful conditions, and now Dio has COVID, along with all of the problems that my wonderful friend in Scotland is having.....

All I can say is, I hope everyone is staying safe, and...wake me in the spring!

It's available free with Prime, so if you were able to watch Jack Ryan, you should be able to watch Reacher. In fact, I don't know if it's also free for non Prime members.
 
I wanna know where it's written that I have to fold my clothes. Specifically, why the socks, unders and pjs? I mean who cares if they're just stuffed in a drawer? Nobody's gonna see 'em except me.

Anyway, it's done and put away.

Time for a short nap before it's Maggiecat's feeding time.

My wife baked a most delicious lemon pie but with so many calories.
It includes a whole can of sweetened condensed milk = 1,300 calories.
I have difficulties limiting myself to eat only a little piece every day to avoid gaining weight.
