Wow, this year is almost over.  :o

Wow, this year is almost over.  :o

It’s been super fast for sure. The older we get the faster it goes. It’s weird to think about but as a kid, teen and even a young adult it felt like time moved much more slower.

We got a turkey for us two. I’m excited for Christmas time though! Seeing all the decorations people put up and everything Christmas. I just love this time of year.

I agree; it sure seems that way. :o

A friend unexpectantly popped round to say hi!

It is November 5th, Guy Fawkes Night and we are still showing the smilies for Halloween?

Anyway, I just filled in my vote-by-mail ballot; I will take it to the Government Center (either later today or tomorrow) and place it in the special drop-box there.

How long will these be up for?

So I had an overall good day. Went out for lunch with my family at a sitdown restaurant; then I bought gelato for them (plus myself) afterwards. Spent the rest of the day at home. :)

Of course I was disappointed about the Astros winning the World Series, but at least it wasn't the Dodgers who lost to them.

Just saw out of the corner of my eye, a flash of lightning, and then subsequently heard the rumble of thunder! I do not think I will be going for my walk today.

The bulk of the rain came on Tuesday, then it was finished passing through.

Anyways, I’m finally getting my flu jab tomorrow morning. (At least I’m supposed to.)

It's going to be heavy rain with wind gusts then by next week temperatures will be in the upper 40's, sharply cold.

Anyways, I’m finally getting my flu jab tomorrow morning. (At least I’m supposed to.)

I received the injection, then drove to work; I arrived at my office shortly after 9.

So that’s taken care of.

I had my flu jab the other week and last Tuesday I had my Covid booster.

Yesterday at work we had a short wreath laying ceremony, including a hymn and two minutes silence as part of Remembrance Day

Last Dai, his mum and I went into the town centre for the annual street fair. We just walked around part of it looking at the various rides, enjoying the lights and the atmosphere. Then we went for dinner at a nice Italian place.

Last night went to a free spaghetti dinner for vets and family at the American Legion a town over. Our waitress was a 7th grader who was just trying WAY too hard. This couple sat down next to us as we eating. They sat there for a quite a while before the girl came to take their order-but first she asked them if they wanted water. They did. So she went to get water before she took their salad order. When she returned with the pitcher of water to fill their glasses, we asked if we could have refills and handed our cups to her. We don't know what happened, she was about to refill them when I think someone asked her something and she said that she would check and turned to go back to the kitchen WITHOUT filling our cups. We all just laughed. I said that I guess we only get one cup of water and that is it!

She disappeared and finally another girl came over to take our pie orders. She later came back to take all our plates away. Then the first girl came back to the table and asked if we needed anything like taking our plates away. HELLO? There are no plates left on the table. Yeah, we laughed at her but told her she was doing fine. The poor girl. She was trying. But, it was great entertainment. Oh, and the food was good. Might go again next year instead of going to Applebee's.

Cat, thank you for serving!  :)

Either this month or next month will make it a year and a half at King Kullen.  :)

Gosh just 3 more days after today and November will be half over!!! Not much going on besides health stuff. Just checking in. Oh, we got a small foot tall table tree and mini decorations from Target that I will be decorating Monday. The lights are on it so far but I will do the rest. I’m not sure about other house decorations going up but I will share a pic when it’s done.

First snow of the season here in Vermont.  We got maybe 2 inches, just enough to cool a hobbit's toes

It has been a hectic day, dashing around London, checking on various items, home before the rain fell. Probably the same for tomorrow.

Here in Kansas it varies. They always get more out west. I’m in the south central area. It barely dusted the ground here.

Please take care in all you are doing.

No rain where I am, however. Just plenty of wind. And it did affect my drive to work; however, I was careful on the roads.

Just heard that my uncle which is My Father's sister's husband has passed away, he has been bedridden for years and was very sick, My Parents will be going to the funeral at the end of the week.  :\'(

I can't remember the last time I saw him, it must've been about 36 years ago, We all went to their house for a barbecue or something like that back in 1986, back when my cousin was a little girl, now she's all grown up as a nurse practitioner.

So sorry, Howard. My condolences to you and your family.

Thank You Cat, I take it back, it was my uncle, not cousin.

My weekend with the family starts today.

My weekend with the family starts today.
After being told they are coming, there are not now!

Right now is the calm before the storm. I have been decluttering the house for the past two weeks now. (Yeah, I know I let it build up.) Now, the house looks great. Just need to get the table ready for tonight's dinner. We ordered a turkey through friends of ours who raises them. We weren't too sure if it will come in time so we bought one at the store. Well, the turkey just arrived. She told us that it was alive this morning. You can't get much fresher than that.

Carlos is running errands at the moment-doing some last minute grocery shopping and such so it is nice to have the house to myself for a bit before this turns int a mad house.

Tonight Carlos' youngest is coming. It was only supposed to be her & her significant other but now it is going to be her 3 kids, too because her ex who was SUPPOSED to take them for the weekend isn't. And we are happy about that. And tomorrow the rest of the Vermont contingency will arriving. We will have have 13 people at our table (including Carlos & me).

Then Sunday, I get to recoup.


Cat

This morning while finishing up the kitchen (including throwing out those scientific experiments from the fridge-EWWWWW), I figured it was music time. But what to listen to? I wanted loud, head banging music. I searched my library. Duran Duran? Nah, not really. ZZ Top? Not quite. Led Zeppelin? Cheap Trick? Eurythmics? Genesis? Meatloaf? Nope! Nope! Nadda! Uh uh. I was sitting on the floor in my living room in front of all my CDs for I don't know how long and just couldn't decide.

Then I spotted it!


QUEEN!

I was rockin' as I was cleaning. It was DEFINITELY the right choice. I love when I totally pick the exact right album to play. Even my cleaning lady (who was also cleaning at the same time) thought it was the right choice.

It was a VERY nice visit. Friday night we had a house full. 2 adults, 2 kids, a teenager, and a dog. The cats weren't very happy about all of this and hid upstairs most of the weekend. I don't know if they were more afraid of the kids or the dog (who is still a puppy). Elvira was brave enough to confront the dog. She was teaching the dog that this is HER house and not to mess with her. I have to give them kudos keeping tabs on the dog and I don't think they took her leash off at all.

The next wave showed up about 2-2:30 yesterday. I put out a tray (I LOVE making trays) which everyone loved. I actually made two of them-one for lunch for the overnight guests and a second one for when the rest showed up.

Then the "chef" put on a WONDERFUL spread with a BIG ASS bird that barely fit in the roaster. It was alive the morning before it was cooked. You can't get too much fresher than that. Of course guess who ends up doing all the clean up.  :-\\

But, overall, it was a GREAT visit-but too short. After everyone left, we were like, "Oh, we forgot..." "I forgot to give this to..."

Here are some pics-and of course I have to show off my table which all the food wasn't put on it yet.

So our Thanksgiving is over. We may go to the local Eagle's Club Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday or just stay home and eat the turkey leftovers from last night. We are going to be eating turkey for a long time. But, I don't have a problem with that. I LOVE "toikey!"

Looks yummy!

Every year when I create a platter with brie, I keep looking for a butter knife that we don't have. My step-son brought dessert and was asking me if we had...I said, "We have everything but a butter knife." So yesterday, I went to eBay and bought a butter knife to go with my flatware set. It should arrive on Wednesday-in time for Christmas when I create another platter.

Will it be a dinner with friends and family?

Today, we went into town to run some errands (about a 45 drive). We ALWAYS listen to Harry Potter on a flash drive. But, the USB port seemed to have died so we couldn't listen.

The first place we went was Xfinity to drop off the old modem and talk to a REAL person who speaks English about our internet issues. She said that she will send a technician out. So hopefully, we can figure out what the problem is on Wednesday. (Unfortunately, the office is a mess. I made the rest of the house look really nice but this room I had put off until AFTER the holidays. Oh well.)

We then went to lunch and while there, "Oh, I need to go here, I need to go there." So, we took care of a few things. Then I was thinking of finally breaking down and getting a smart phone. But, the place was crowded and they said that the wait would be 45 minutes. Nope. Not waiting. Maybe another day.

We then went to the dealer to tell them that our USB port stopped working. Come to find out we have another one!  :o :o But, we made an appointment to get the other fixed (since it is still under warranty). So, we have to go back to town and maybe I will make an appointment to get a new phone. But we did get to listen to Harry on the way home.

And everything I bought today (with the exception of lunch and batteries) was for my cats.


Cat

Safe travels.

I have officially started my Christmas shopping-YAY! Hopefully, I will be done by tomorrow. The problem is that my youngest (5 years old) only asked for one thing-Rainbow dolls. First of all, I never heard of them before. I went to Amazon and OMG-those things are SOOOO UGLY!!! They are basically Made in China crap! I try not to buy Made in China crap if I can help it but that is the only thing she asked for. I asked Carlos if I should compromise my own conviction to get her what she asked for. He said no. So, I went back to my step-daughter asking if she would like something else. She said that was the ONLY thing she asked for and it was up to me if I wanted to get her something else. So, I got her a Green toy which was made in the US out of recyclable material. My conscience is at peace now.

Now, I have to buy I don't know how many more gifts. Yeah, I spend a fortune every November/December because not only do we have 8 grandkids to buy Christmas presents for, we also have 2 birthdays in December, too.


Cat

Last night was I was shopping on Etsy for Christmas gifts, I came across this Occult library for about $6 or so. It was a download of about 1000 ebooks or so. I figured what the hell. For that price you can beat it. So, I bought it and downloaded it. Some of the books I am not interested in but some are really good-and for that price, unbelievable. So today, I left a great review. And for my great review, he is GIVING me another download of over 1000 ebooks. ALL for about $6. WAY COOL!

And yes, I do wonder about virus and such as I am downloading but my antivirus hasn't picked up anything.

Just out of curiosity, I looked up "Rainbow Dolls" after I read your post, because I never heard of them. They remind me of those tacky paintings of kids with big eyes that people had in the 1960s.  :D

Thanks, Jeffrey!  And safe travels to you.

Thanks, Howard!

Thank you as well. We’re gonna leave the house at about 10 a.m. (pacific time) to travel up Highway 101 to our destination.

Today at work, I made sure everything was taken care of before I left the office, so that when I get back there next Monday, I can ease back into what I need to do.

The big eyed paintings are better looking than these dolls. She will be getting 2 of them because a couple others got them for her. Like I said, I couldn't in all good conscience buy any of them.

Tomorrow I’m going to pig out😂I hope everyone enjoys their dinners!

All gifts (sans one) are bought. I am waiting for that one because it will be delivered to their door and I don't want it coming too soon. My credit cards are VERY tired right now and need a rest-even though I just used them on myself.

I can eat a lot of them in one sitting but then after a while it catches up to you, the total number of hamburgers I can eat is probably about 6.

What did you order?

I'm trying to figure out this co-worker of mine who I work with when he's there during the week, I like him a lot and he's been there I believe about 6 months and I feel so comfortable with him that we like each other's company, he's almost 60 years old, he's funny and quite smart and he has 40 years in the business plus he knows a lot of customers from the past King Kullen he used to work at on Long Island, I wanted to give him my my cell number, he said "Don't worry about it" then after that I wanted to give him my e-mail too and he said the very same thing, maybe it's much too early to do this right now so I'll probably wait until next year (2023) until him himself feels comfortable, maybe by that time he'll change his mind and we can go out for a lunch or maybe a light snack, sort of like a get-together. 

1 is usually enough for me in a single sitting.


Are you talking about White Castle burgers?  They're really small, like 3X3 inches

Howard, did you explain why you wanted to swap cell phone numbers? Perhaps if you said that you wanted to meet for lunch sometime he might understand why you wanted to keep in touch with him.

Yes, she's referring to White Castle burgers, they're so delicious.

Howard, did you explain why you wanted to swap cell phone numbers? Perhaps if you said that you wanted to meet for lunch sometime he might understand why you wanted to keep in touch with him.

Yes I said that maybe one day if he's off we can meet for a snack or perhaps a drink (he loves to drink a bit of alcohol sometimes) I don't understand why he wouldn't accept my number or perhaps my email? I'll just back off and wait till he's good and ready I don't want to push the situation too far. Being with him, I find him just so funny and just a good person plus I love to hear his stories he tells, co workers and customers like him.

What did you order?


I don't remember. That almost 25 years ago. Do you remember what your ordered 25 years ago?

Welcome back!

I'm trying to figure out this co-worker of mine who I work with when he's there during the week, I like him a lot and he's been there I believe about 6 months and I feel so comfortable with him that we like each other's company, he's almost 60 years old, he's funny and quite smart and he has 40 years in the business plus he knows a lot of customers from the past King Kullen he used to work at on Long Island, I wanted to give him my my cell number, he said "Don't worry about it" then after that I wanted to give him my e-mail too and he said the very same thing, maybe it's much too early to do this right now so I'll probably wait until next year (2023) until him himself feels comfortable, maybe by that time he'll change his mind and we can go out for a lunch or maybe a light snack, sort of like a get-together.

I was just discussing hanging out with my co-worker Bob this morning, he goes to this bar once in a while to relax for drink and lunch, his days off are different than mine so one day we could figure things out on how were going to work it. I'd love to spend some time with a nice co-worker of mine, he told me to bring a lot of money or a credit card so I must be prepared when the time comes.

Is he going to make you pay? That’s not a great way to start a friendship.  :(

No I'm going to pay, I was checking out the burgers and they're 16 dollars and the dessert menu, the prices are $10 dollars.

It's very hard to be online
Went your broadband cuts out time after time
So one thing to do that's best
Put your head down and have some rest.

This doesn't sound right to me

That’s what I’m saying too.

What doesn't sound right? The small restaurant is a bit expensive so he told me to bring a lot of money cause the food prices over there are pricey, I would like to try it out one time and see how good the food is.

The way you wrote it, it sounds like he wants YOU to pay his way. That is the part that sounds wrong. If both of you are planning to pay your own way, then what he said is legit. We are just looking out for you, Howard.

I'm sure he has money to pay for himself, It's a small tavern/restaurant he told me about that he goes for lunch, he told me he orders the cheeseburger and wings and I asked him about it and then I thought that maybe on my day off Him And I can go to that place but both of us have to have the same days off to do this, doing this is a good way to get to know him a bit better and to go out and explore and meet new people which I'm trying to do.

That was precisely what I did, and could not be bothered to switch the computer back on.

After a day of rushing around London, I finally got to be online.

Thanks, I find him to be quite funny, I've never seen him angry since I've known him for the past couple of months, I enjoy his company and both of us are a good team when it comes to working together.

Have a good time (whenever you get to go)!

That's awesome. O0 Always good to have people like that.

Anyways... today was a busy (but productive) day at the office. Got all of our end-of-month tasks done without too much trouble. O0

Have a good time (whenever you get to go)!

Thanks.
