IRISH BULL......
1.  MAY YOU NEVER LIVE TO SEE YOUR WIFE A WIDOW.
2. GENTLEMEN, IT APPEARS TO BE UNANIMOUS THAT WE CANNOT AGREE.

OUR FORECAST CHANGED FROM SNOW TO RAIN FOR THURSDAY WHICH IS GREAT.  I HAVE A CARDIO APPT (JUST A CHECKUP) ON THAT DAY AND IF IT SNOWS MY DAU CAN'T COME TO BRING ME FROM OUT OF TOWN.  I HOPE THEY ARE RIGHT THIS TIME.

IF ANY OF YOU ENJOYED DOC MARTIN, A BRITISH SERIES ABOUT A SURGEON GOING TO LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN BECAUSE OF HIS SUDDEN FEAR OF BLOOD, THEN YOU WILL PROBABLY ENJOY THE NEW FOX ENTRY, 'BEST MEDICINE' WHICH IS COPY OF THAT SHOW IN THE TOWN OF PORT WENN ON THE MAINE COAST.  SOME OF THE CAST SO FAR ARE THE SAME AS THE BRITISH BUT WITH A BIT DIFFERENT TAKE.  YOU SHOULD CHECK IT OUT.  
I DID MY LAPS AND CHECKED IN WITH THE LADIES AT COFFEE MORNING.  I DO NOT HAVE COFFEE OR EAT AT THAT TIME, SO I SOMETIMES CHECK IN TO CHAT BUT NOT ALWAYS.
I AM TRYING TO THINK WHAT TO DEFROST FOR A MEAL ON THURSDAY.  I MAY MAKE ANOTHER CASSEROLE SO MY DAUGHTER CAN TAKE SOME HOME.  SHE LIKES MY COUNTRY BEEF NOODLE CASSY IF I REMEMBR CORRECTLY.

CHORES ARE FEW TODAY.  THE SUN IS OUT AND ITS BRIGHT.  I MAY GET SOME SEWING DONE TODAY.  I ALREADY PLAYED SOME SOLITAIRE TO KEEP MY BRAIN ACTIVE.  I WILL ALSO DO SOME READING TODAY.  AND MAYBE JIGSAWING.  I ALWAYS PLAY IT BY EAR AND DO WHAT I FEEL LIKE DOING AT THE TIME.

LINDA......I HOPE YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY TODAY.  SOMETIMES THEY ARE NOT AS GOOD AS WE LIKE BUT THAT EVENS OUT A DAY OR TWO LATER.

DEVONNE.....HOW GREAT ALL THAT HARD WORK IS BEHIND YOU.  I HOPE YOU CAN FIND RUGS YOU LIKE.  HOW ABOUT BRAIDED RUGS?  I HAVE THOSE IN MY KITCHEN.  AND A COTTON RUG IN MY BATHROOM THAT WORKS WELL.

I DIDN'T SLEEP WELL LAST NITE.  HAD SOME WEIRD DREAM THAT REALLY BOTHERED ME.  THEN I WOKE UP AND KEPT RETHINKING IT AGAIN AND AGAIN.  THANKFULLY I FELL BACK TO SLEEP AND DID BETTER AS FAR AS DREAMING WENT.  I DREAM EVERY NITE.  SOME I REMEMBER VIVIDLY WHEN I AWAKE AND SOME DISAPPEAR A FEW SECONDS AFTER I OPEN MY EYES.  

STAY SAFE.  HUGS TO YOU ALL.  QB S

Afternoon y'all! 

Trish I wrote that movie down.  We are watching, Only Murders in the Building.  We love it!  I would watch them all again to see if I can figure out how I missed the murderer the first time!  

QB That show has been on my radar to watch!  We can watch it on HULU to catch up.  

Making headway on the probate.  One of the mineral rights companies is accepting the probate from Georgia!!!!!!  I have sent this wonderful woman everything she asked for and now it's up to the heirs, including me, to fill out paperwork and send it to her. 

One big step forward.  Now just waiting on snail mail from the other company, and that will be going in the right direction.  Then after that it's things in other peoples hands, like taxes.... Stuff I cannot control.  Tax paperwork has started to come in.  I need to pull billing stuff for the taxes too!  

I did call the cemetery and told the poor woman on the phone that it's been too long, this should have been done and on her niche.  That I am frustrated!  I got an email with what I requested, sent a picture to my niece and NSDB and got thumbs up!  Signed, scanned and emailed the paperwork back to her and actually got a reply email that she got it!  

Now that that part is off my plate.  I can concentrate on more pressing things. 

That feels good to get done!  

I also called the roofer, got a call back and they will come look and tell me what I need to do, new roof or just replace the boots?  We will see.  They have been good to me in the past!  I really like this company, or I would not have kept their number.  

So, I guess today has been a really good day! I have even filed some of the paperwork so I don't lose it!  Scary I know! 

My poor printer has been in overdrive today. I need to add paper, it has one sheet left.  With the new laptop, the printer works better as does the scanner.  I love it! 

That's all from my little corner of the world!  

Later my Friends! 

Ooh, Theresa, that sounds good and easy.  The only thing I might leave out are the chocolate chips...  Sometimes, some things are a bit too chocolatey for me. Will that wreck it? 

Devonne, you're not going to believe this!  I got the Christmas card you mailed on Dec. 18th, YESTERDAY, the 12th of January!  You do live in Georgia, USA don't you?  Not the Georgia that's in or near Russia!  The whole postal system is a mystery... 

I've feel like I've just returned last night from a long safari,  With preparing for the group and while I had Sat. and Sun. free, my mind wasn't since I had a crown prep done, yesterday, which weighed  heavily on my mind.  I've always been and still am a 'dentaphobe' if that's  word.  It went well enough but I was in that office from 1 pm until 3:40 pm.  Now for the 3 wk. wait for the permanent crown.  Poor Howard...waiting in the car most of that time, except for the two small errands he ran.
I had two blessings.  One, was a reduction of $500 off the hefty charge since there was one part he didn't need to do.  And, the other "repair" I need will be another crown not the implant I was afraid I needed.    Costly enough, but not what an implant would be.

Afterwards, we did our weekly tramp through W-M.  We always need something and usually an Rx, too, so might as well go there.

QB, I don't dream nightly like you do, but I've had a couple of lulus the past two nights.  One "featured" an old, and I  do mean "old" flame and the other was a well-known tv preacher (deceased now) who was my doctor in the dream.    

Devonne, there's always something one has to give up to get something they want more.  Like you and the soft carpet.  Just the way it works.  Like when you buy something you want and then you get it home, and have to find a place for it.  We got this new humifier and now where do we store the many gallons of distilled water it  uses?  I found the edge of the bathtub we don't ever use, with the curtain pulled, works.

I have something slapped together in my small crockpot.  French onion chicken, so I could use up the extra cooked chicken I had.  We'll see...Howard isn't very fond of onion, but then, I don't discuss the ingredients I use in my cooking with him.  

Mary Lou, I know you'll adjust to both sorrows, but it does hurt for awhile and too bad they came at the same time.  I hope you can find something to look forward to.   My dear old friend always gave that advise and it does help and eventually work.  

Off to check the food...  Have a good evening and sweet dreams.

Indy I don't know if leaving the chips out will hurt it.  I am the opposite  the more chocolate the better.  I have done dark, semi-sweet and milk chocolate in this recipe.  All were good!  

This afternoon I made a lemon pound cake, using one of the lemons from my tree.  I got 13 lemons this year.  Already made lemon bars!  

TWO-HEADED HEADLINES......
1.  STUD TIRES OUT.
2.  PROSTITUTES APPEAL TO POPE.

ITS BRIGHT AND SUNNY OUT.  IN THE 40S TODAY.  WE EXPECT SOME WET WEATHER TOMORROW.  I HOPE ITS ONLY RAIN SO I DO NOT HAVE TO CANCEL MY CARDIO CHECKUP.

CHERYL......ANNIE POTTS IS DOC MARTIN BEST'S AUNT, IN BEST MEDICINE, BUT INSTEAD OF A FARMER SHE'S A LOBSTER FISHERPERSON.  SHE'S VERY GOOD IN THE PART AND LOOKS GOOD.  ONLY THE 2ND SHOW LAST NITE.
ELAINE, HIS FIRST RECEPTIONIST, IS A MODERN, DIFFERENT BRAND OF WOMAN AND A BIT STRANGE, BUT I LIKE HER.  LOUISA IS A TEACHER AS WAS THE BRITISH ONE.  I THINK I WILL LIKE THIS SERIES.  ITS FUN.

THERESA.....ON THE CROCKPOT CAKE, YOU DO NOT MENTION HOW LONG YOU COOKED IT.  6 TO 8 HRS IS A LONG TIME SPAN.  WAS IT 6 OR 8 HRS OR DO YOU TEST SOMEHOW FOR DONENESS?  AND DID YOU USE SEMI-SWEET OR MILK CHOC BITS?  

I GOT SOME BAD NEWS LAST NITE.  MY ELDEST NEPHEW, SON OF MY HALF SISTER, PASSED AWAY SUNDAY AFTER MANY MEDICAL ISSUES.  ITS PROBABLY A BLESSING. HE WAS 72.  THEY LIVED IN ANOTHER STATE SO I WILL NOT BE GOING TO THE SERVICES.  THE NEWS SURE BROUGHT ON ALL THE CUTE MEMORIES I HAD OF HIM GROWING UP.  I KEEP SHEDDING TEARS WHEN I THINK OF HIM.  GOT TO PULL UP MY BIG GIRL UNDIES AND CARRY ON.

DID MY LAPS THIS MORNING.  THE PLAN IS MY COUNTRY BEEF NOODLE CASSEROLE FOR TONITE SO I CAN SEND MOST HOME WITH MY DAU. TOMORROW AFTER MY DR APPT.  SHE LOVES NOT HAVING TO COOK A MEAL.  I WILL ALSO THROW TOGETHER SOME TUNA SALAD FOR THEM.  I KNOW ITS ALL APPRECIATED.  
CROSS YOUR FINGERS FOR ME THAT IT DOES NOT SNOW PLEASE.

I HAVE MY ADVANCE DIRECTIVE READY FOR MY CARDIOLOGIST, ALL WITNESSED NY TWO AS REQUIRED IN THIS STATE BUT NO NOTARY IS NECESSARY IN MAINE.  I ALSO HAVE A COPY FOR MY PRIMARY CARE DR WHO I SEE IN FEB.  I DO NOT WANT TO LINGER AS A VEGETABLE.  TALKED TO SON AND DAUGHTER BOTH SO THEY KNOW WHAT I WANT.

GOING TO GET SOME READING DONE TODAY.  THEN THERE'S BINGO TONITE.  CROSSING MY FINGERS THAT I WIN AT LEAST 50 CENTS SO ITS A WIN. 

STAY SAFE AND WARM LADIES.  HUGS, QB S
