What's on your agenda for today?

Sorry, you've been ill, Pappy.

QS, maybe you get to try out the new snow blower.

Today, I'm going to granddaughter's birthday party.

Thanks Jackie..... Actually we did use it one time about a month ago.. so it looks like this is going to be another chance.

Have a good time at the party!
 

QS, stay warm, I so don't miss snow and feel for all of you dealing with the heavy storms.

Pappy hope you feel better soon.

Jackie, I hope you and yours have a wonderful time celebrating your granddaughters birthday. They grow up so fast.
 
All my kids are coming to Florida, from all over the country, and we are leaving in March for a 7 day cruise to the Carribean islands. It's the family reunion and will be the first time we've been all together for a long time. My son called me last month and said Dad, you and mom are going with us and you can't say no because your room is all paid for. Fantastic kids and I'm so darn lucky they all turned out well. They said its for our 60th anniversary even though it's only been 58 this year. Math wasn't his best subject in school.:sentimental:
 
Have a good trip home, AS!

Pappy, I feel awful that you're feeling so rotten! Not to sound like a nag hag, but did you get your flu shot this season? I hope you are taking some medicine that is helping with the crummy aches and pains that come with flu. Probably the best medicine is sleep!

This morning when I took out the dog, it was 11 degrees, wind chill was -4 degrees. The wind hurt my face so much that I wound a scarf around my face with just the eyes showing. I felt bad for the dog, but she didn't seem to care one bit about the cold. Go figure. However, I am NOT going to whine about the nasty old weather because things could be worse and I could feel as horrible as Pappy does right now!
 
Pappy the flu bug has been going around here like wildfire since the week before Christmas, it's a nasty one and is knocking people for six for up to 2 weeks...the coughing is the worst part of this particular strain, so take all your meds, you need to be fit and strong for your Cruise.

Safe journey AS..

Kath the weather is the same here...it's 5 deg C, and winds are freezing and 25mph...forecast is for rain for most of today.
 
they tell snow is on my agenda for the day....we will have to wait and see......in side the house the wood fire will be blazing and after church I plan to work on this next weeks column and of course some comic book reading...
 
Good morning, boys and girls.

Ameriscot, I hope your trip home was safe and uneventful.
Pappy, get better so you can enjoy your cruise!
Ronaldj, Kath, Hollydolly, the groundhog is supposed to tell us tomorrow just how long we have to wait for spring. He's reliable, right? Tells the truth? We can count on him?
AprilT, there's probably no danger of anything like winter in your neck of the woods...er...tropics.
 
You got the right idea Raven. It's cold here (-11) and outside does not beckon. Lots to do in the way of housework, and might attempt a few things, but will mostly relax.

Safe journey home, Ameriscot...
Be well, Pappy
:)
 
12-14 inches of snow... Just staying at home with hubby and the furkids.. The fridge is full... and the most I plan on doing in the way of work is perhaps some laundry. I may not make it to work tomorrow.. But this has been a mild winter til now so I have no complaints.
 
Church at 11:00, then home, change clothes and head to the shooting range with my son to kill some targets. He has an AR-15 that I have not yet shot, but that will change today. Also, plan on going to a friend's Super Bowl party later.
 
11 AM I am off to play Pentanque with the Pentanque Club for a couple of hours and then at 2:30 PM it's a Super Bowl Party here at the Apartments. I will watch with the group when the game begins and then retreat to my apartment to watch the rest of the game by myself on a larger TV screen.
 
Oldman and Lon...both of you have been enjoying 2 of my favourite hobbies...target shooting and petanque...wish I'd been doing either of those today. However it's been absolutely freezing here, so we went out for a traditional sunday lunch at a riverside pub.. Sat out in the open because there is heating over each table and it's preferable to sitting cheek by jowl in the enclosed restaurant. Then we went for a little stroll along the tow-path watching all the canal side wildlife...but eventually the cold got the better of us and we got back to the warmth of the car and home to the house for a warming cup of coffee. .
 
I don't know what Petanque is but I guess it must be really fun - I have a huge fear of guns from girlhood when my Dad asked me to shoot at the tin can he'd put on a fence post for target practice. I'd never held a gun before but decided to give it a try. I fired at the can, there was a big kickback, and I fell backward hitting my head on a log. I was out for 5 minutes but nothing was seriously wrong except for a lump on my head and a bruise at the shoulder. So Dad said that was a sign that I should avoid guns for good which I have.

To everyone who will be watching the Super Bowl tonight - hope your team wins!
 
Oh, tonight I have the rare fun of cancelling my credit card. I have been hacked. Not for much.....the credit card people explained that the hackers start out with a small amount to see if the card is good.....then they go in for the "kill". Well, I hope they break their teeth on it - lol. Can I hope they get hemorrhoids? Really bad ones? I have other credit cards to use, but I wanted to use this one this week to charge airfare. Rats. Hopefully, the new one will get here in time.

Other than that, celebrated my sister's 60th birthday by going to lunch today a wonderful Turkish restaurant - yum, yum, yum...or should I say lezzetli?
 
Oh Jujube, so sorry, hope they get a gigatore of a hemorrhoid each and every time for ever and ever.. Not a niece thing to do. Just found out someone had placed those swiping scanner things all about town here at various atm machines, the past week or so; people are getting more and more desperate it seems as these occurrences are on the rise. Not new, just more bold and more frequent. They have the guy on video at a few of the places.

Happy b-lated birthday wishes to your sister, hope you all had a lovely time.
 
I'm sorry about your card situation, Jujube! I hope you get your new card ASAP so you can proceed with your trip. Today I did some work on a quilt for my granddaughter. She loves to decorate her room so the quilt is my contribution to her decorating project. She's 16 and is learning how to drive but she's more nervous behind the wheel than the driving instructor (her dad)!
