Coffee anyone ?

[SageHill]

45 here, going to 65 - then warming thru next Thursday. Highs in the mid 60s but will be hitting 78 and 80 Sat and Sun. Not a cloud to be found until maybe Tuesday. Ugh. Warmer temps can mean slitheries here Obi scraped up his right front pastern yesterday and is ouchie. . I'll clean stalls today and go grab a few presents and maybe make another batch of cookies. If I could send the warm temps your way I sure would! Heck I'd send it express!

Think she'll have them unwrapped before the gathering?

Well I had to re wrap my moms gift about 2 times now. The bags she sits in. And she unties string

Only 42F here, the cold hits Thursday. Meeting friends in Rusk tonight at 6:00 to pick up 15 year old. Only a little over an hour away, but I drive slower at night, so will probably add 30 minutes to time. Kamakazie deer jump out of the woods and there are 2 stretches of road that are 2 lane, no shoulder, cutting through tree canyons (forest). My son hit a deer on one of those roads, the first 3 ran across the road, then one he didn’t see sprang out at the last second. It went under his truck, wrapped around the front axle and flipped his truck. It rolled. Good thing he had slowed down, he doesn’t drive fast any way. Totaled his truck, he walked away from it. In my little car, with 3 kids, oh yeah, you can bet my Kamakazie Deer Radar will be on full alert.
Let me go find those pictures. Found ‘em. The first one was as it stopped, the other 2 were after the wrecker rolled it over.

And all from a single "itty bitty dear"

I am so glad he was OK

Also can put a loop with the connection inside a zip-top bag & tape closed the end.
That way you can easily see/access the plugs& don't have to try and get the sticky plugs in untaped in a rain storm in the dark to see if water had gotten inside...

Or you could buy a proper cord connector protector thing

Well... smack me!

WHEN will I learn to not wait until so close to a holiday to go grocery shopping?!??!!

Almost zero eggs, only two choices: medium size dozen, or fancy organic brown dozens... and those eggs were at the bulk food store in town.... regular food store had zero eggs.

Zero white chocolate, bars or chips or anything.... zero gluten free quinoa noodles, only the nasty brown rice ones...

Zero crispy english muffins

Zero pre-made peppermint bark.

Zero large dried sausage

Zero high quality semi-sweet chocolate chips

Zero gluten free wafer cookies




Also, I wanted a nice looking "green". I only got green onions... the spinich looked a bit brown and wilty... there were some decent looking dandelion greens... but I wasn't so sure that spouse would go for that.... and the rest looked pretty blah...

Coffee is ready, on second cup. Went out to feed while coffee was making. Ice is in water buckets. Sun is out, it will warm up and I can unroll the hose to fill water buckets. 2 little granddaughters are eating cereal and watching cartoons. Oldest is asleep. She and I stayed up late watching movies last night.
