Good morning from the Interior, where the snow showed up last night and is still going. However, little to no expected accumulation. Everything out there is white, ground and sky at seven degrees.

I cleaned out and washed the fridge this morning and I plan on doing the oven this afternoon. The automatic oven cleaning is four hours of blowing air and noise and you still have to go in manually to clean!

Patricia,I agree with the stove cleaning. No matter what one does with the so called self cleaning we still have to work at getting it cleaned the way we want it.

Good evening.  I had a very nice post here and managed t accidentally hit the "undo" button and it magically undid😩😩🤪🤪‼️

I had PT today so I am tired and sore, but doing all I can to get this shoulder working‼️

We are staying with the grands again this week.

I had problems getting in here and when I did there were warnings not to go further as it was a unsafe area.....or something like that.  I certainly did not want any problems so gave up and tried again another day. 

Terrible storms to the southeast......my son is in Charlotte NC and he said there were tornado warnings there most of the day.  They even let the schools out early.  Also talked to my SIL in Panama City FL and they had tornado warnings there as well.  I hope all of you are safe. 

I enjoyed reading all of the nice posts but right now I can not even remember what I said to each of you. 

Take care and be safe EVERYFRIEND.

Jenny

Stopped by to wish you all a good night!  I never know if the typing is going to go our not.  Sometimes it acts like the keyboard isn't even hooked up and it drives me crazy!  Tonight (so far) it's going as it should.

JENNY, keep working on that shoulder!  It's going to get better!

PATRICIA, keep that snow in Alaska!  I don't want any more around here!

PHYLLIS, congrats on getting your taxes all over with.  That job gets more and more of a JOB as life goes on! 

I saw some ads for shirts and hats today and one of the hats said "I don't know how to act my age.  I've never been this old before."  I loved it!

I'm heading for the haystack now!  I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow.  And may God bless us, every one!  And may he look after the Ukrainians!

Rainy day tomorrow!

Gloria,

I think that the witch should
shut her damn mouth...
well,  I can think it but of course
you can't say that ...
So I will think it for you ~

Sandy

Good Morning everyone. I have not slept over mabey 30 Min. so I just got up and came in here to see what if any thing is going on, every thing I see says yesterday. so I am going to go in the living room and turn the TV on and see what i can fiend in the way of a good moovie. see you all later.

Lloyd

Good morning


I have an appointment this morning to get a new rear wiper put on and my snow tires off and summers put on. Hope I am not tempting fate, I don't think there will be anymore snow but one never knows.

Phyllis, nice when everything works out quick like that and one does not have to wait long .I am thinking that maybe next week we will have some extra in our account as ours were sent in on Apr 2.

Lloyd, hope you can catch 40 winks later on today.

Shirley, we are switching from wood heat to propane in the garage. The lad came and explained it and one of our concerns was the dust from the wood cutting but he said the new ones are set up for that and have a lot of safety features built in.

Better get a move on here.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

 

Good Morning Everyfriend!  This will be short today since Cooper is already telling me it's time for his walk.  It's raining a steady rain and is supposed to last until around 2 pm so I suppose there's no use trying to hold him off.  We'll be walking in the rain...and I don't think I'll imitate Gene Kelly's
walk in the rain!

Don't know what's up for today!  I'll take it as it comes!  I wish you all a good day...better than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow!

Good morning everyone. Remember the song April showers may come your way--they bring the flowers that bloom in May? Well we are getting the showers again today so I sure hope we get a lot of beautiful May flowers. From what I just saw on local forecast looks like showers every other day. At least today Fran will be here to give me a good back massage.

PATRICIA  I have only used the oven in the stove here for baking a pie shell and browning the meringue on a lemon pie. When I used  to bake a lot I had a small apartment size stove and now in this building we have the bigger stoves with a big oven where I cannot even open the door and reach inside. Most of the CNAs I get never baked and do not want to learn. They rather go to the market and buy TV dinners, not too healthy. In the big kitchen on the main floor that is used on special occasions when they clean the oven the have to shut the doors to that room and it stinks the first floor and even into the elevator.

JENNY  I am so sorry you are still having big problems with your shoulder.

AMY  just think if you get snow after getting the summer tires on you will have a good excuse to stay home and look at the snow out your window.

JANE  if you do not want to Gene Kelly's walk in the rain how about his singing in the rain? Just don't splash Cooper when you jump into the gutter with all the water.

Have a good day, stay healthy and safe.

Okay, I was down to the last visit with everyone & it vanished.  So much for all my wit & wisdom this day.    I'm sure it was way too long since cats ate & both zonked out. Stay safe, be happy & keep moving!  Love y'all......Shirley (Hi, Gloria)

Good morning from an Interior that's plus-eight with cloudy skies. Our daily highs are back in the early forties and no snow's expected, so there's that. I'm so ready for warmer temperatures and the heat.

There have been signs where the offices are located in our lobby asking people not to loiter since I moved in 2013. They're talking about opening the main lounge next to those offices for an Easter meal cooked on the premises from some church donating time and food for our Easter celebration. I hope this means they later leave the lounge open for the residents (It's the only one with a kitchen.) and open the other four lounges.

There are some residents I haven't seen in two years with the prohibition against loitering in the halls. Everyone who doesn't have an outside destination remains locked in their apartments. It's simply the way it is. We've lost more to the pandemic, and I know it's been relatively high for our age group in line with other states and places.

This city doesn't only lie on the east and west side of the Tanana Valley,  it also sprawls along the rivers and up the flanks of the foothills and a few ridges, domes, and outcroppings. With the mountains so close, the only ways out of the valley are by car, in the south and the west directions. My point is those living in those ridges and foothills are isolated, not only by adverse winter weather but also by the pandemic. That was the primary reason my circle started our morning chats and texts, and it has truly been necessary.

Good Morning!  I didn't check out last night because the keyboard wouldn't work in here.  It's working now but for how long, I have no idea.  I'm waiting for Cooper's arrival and having my first cup of coffee.  When he gets here, we'lll have breakfast together and then take a walk when it gets light out. 

Today is an " Oh waddle I I do" day.  I don't have a plan so whatever rears it's head will have to do.  Yesterday, I got Emma's (my greatgranddaughter) birthday present all packed up and Cathy stopped by after work and took it to the UPS office.  She's going to be 4 years old next week.  I can hardly believe that!  She is such a cutie!  She looks exactly like he mother did at that age.  The keyboard is acting up so I'm leaving now.  Have a good day!           

Good morning...

A liquid sunshine morning it is and will be all day if the weather guessers get their way.

Off to the city this morning Kyle has an appointment and he is also to go for xrays. That will about do it for the day here.

Jane, time for a new keyboard? Enjoy your time with Cooper.

Patricia, we are 46° at the moment but damp and dreary.

Gloria, snow tires really do make a difference compared to all weather ones. One set I had contained coconut shells in them!

Better shake a leg here..

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Good Morning JaneS AMY and anyone else that follow. It Is 62º  i  hav taken my vitials and posted them with VA and it is mostly sunny here today.  I have not had enough sleep I am still tirde so I am going back to bed before Nancy gets the bed Made. see you all Later.

Lloyd

I turned the covers back on My side and got in and got some More sleep. i feel some better also. except I have my usual head ake. N ancy cant just set down and relax, she is in the ketichen Maken some Bana bread.dont know why she keeps buying more Bannas than we eat, but she dose. the good side of that is in paitricly the youngest great grand childe loves it and comes and beg some of it from her. and takes it home next dore where they live in the other duplex. I am shure he shares it with all of the rest of the others. Have a great day see you all Later.

Lloyd

Good morning Lloyd, Jane, and Amy; after having a day of clear skies, we're back to snow dustings tonight and tomorrow. Amy, our high today will be 43, and presently it's plus 15. Other than that, some vacuuming, kitchen rearrangement, and laundry are all I have planned for the next few days.[/size]

AMY  this is a  new keyboard and it works everywhere except in here.  It frustrates the heck out of me!       

Quote from: JaneS on April 07, 2022, 03:30:57 PMAMY  this is a  new keyboard and it works everywhere except in here.  It frustrates the heck out of me!       

Is it wired, or wireless?  If wireless be sure there is no other things between it and the computer. --- like a cordless phone setting on your desk, or a fan. If it's wired re-insert the plug .

Long day and I am more than happy it is coming to a close.The trip to the city went well ,did everything we had wanted to do.
Came home to find a dozen of coloured eggs on our door step.No, the Easter bunny wasn't here but the neighbours were.

Jane, that is mystifying for it to work everywhere else.
Time to put my feet up..

It's the end of the day and I'm ready to hit the hay.  I didn't do much except walk Cooper and take care of his needs and play with him a bit.  Then when he settled down for a nap, I picked up my library book and that was the end of doing anything else.

Rick, I've always had my keyboard on an attached keyboard shelf that can be pushed in and stored under my desk.  At your suggestion, I took it of that shelf, put it up on the desk and...guess what?  It's working fine.  Maybe this one can't be used down on that shelf!  When the computer guys come over next week, I'll have to check that out with them.  Meantime, the keyboard is up on the desk and my chair is up in the air so I can reach it.  If it keeps on working, you will be sent my thanks every time I use it!  Keep your ears open!

I'm going to start all the stuff I need to do before I head for the haystack.  Then I'm heading for the haystack!  I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow, and may God bless us, every one.  And may He watch over the ukrainians!

I cleaned off the shelf and put the keyboard back on it and tried to use it and it didn't work.  I took it out, put it back up on the desk and it works.  AMAZING!  I think RICK is a GENIUS!

well It Is time for me to bid you all good night and sweet dreams. Have a good easy day. the rain last night and lot of thunder, but no damage have i seen.

Lloyd

Jane S --- Wireless or wired?  From what you said I would guess it is wireless - and something is blocking or distorting the signal from it to the "Box".
My wife used to aim the TV remote at the TV but her walker was in front of her. It caused all sorts of malfunctions because of the signal (radio waves or IR) bouncing off the walker. Joan (of Sr Net) had a fan near her monitor and it did weird things. Moved the fan away and all went well.

well I ckecked in and do not see any thing new seince I checked before going to bed and this computer is not posting the propper day and time. so I am going back to bed and not worrie about it , see you all later.

Lloyd

Now we shall see what we shall see!  Good Morning Everyfriend!  The keyboard seems to be working fine on the top of the desk...thanks to Rick's suggestion!  It still isn't working from the under shelf!  I can live with this!

Cooper has arrived and had his breakfast and is waiting patiently for his walk.  At least it isn't raining today!  Right the temp is at 43º and heading for a high of 58 later today.  The report says "partly cloudy".  That's one more thing I can live with!

I have some cooking to do today and maybe I'll just sit around and finish my library book.  I can blame that on PHYLLIS because I picked it our from her report that she was reading this one.  Thanks PHYLLIS!  I'm realling enjoying "The Last Bookshop in London" thanks to your "recommendation". 

Now I better get going and get dressed so Cooper and I can take a walk.  I wish you all a good day...better than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow! 

Good morning everyone. About all I have been doing is laying on the couch with the TV on. My arms aren't long enough to reach the PC from the other side of the room. Of course it is raining again today. Those May flowers better be the best ever this year.

JANE  I think we should all get one of those hats, so true, we never were this age before. Time for a new keyboard? I know how aggravating it is to have one not working right

SANDY  I keep away from that witch as much as I can. We have so many hew ones moving in to replace the ones that left she has them to pick on now. You are right, if I said that she would come up with something to evict me.

AMY  I so remember getting tires changed in spring and fall.

Time to have breakfast but think I will lay on the couch instead.

Have a good day.

Good morning...

Another wet day out there, the snow is fading fast now!

Need to nip into town to pick up some things for my friend then will take the day as it comes.

Jane happy to read your keyboard is working t, thank to Rick

Rick, the tv remote won't work either when the dog walks in front of you trying to change the channel either.

Enjoy your day and stay safe..

Good Mid Morning everyone. Like they say a bad pinney always returns.I am back, went back too bed and got some more zzeys. I Am up for the day now. as soon as i get the morning meal, whitch Is cold cearil this morning. I am going to get the tractor out and put some dirt in the raised bed's.  the tractor Has a front end loader one it. will be easy to dig up dirt and put in the raised beds. ours has four nilon tubs in it four ft square makeing the beds sixteen feet long and four foot wide. we have it setting in back of the house, close enough that nancy will be abel to walk around and putter in it as she likes. will be easy to reach the two foot to the Middle of it. I think we will put iriash pattoes in one tub. and mix up defferant veges in the other three.like lettice and beans and peas carrets and what ever else Nancy and grand childern come up with. down by the pond close i am going to till up a garden spot also and plant some sweet corn and some popcorn. and a little bit of Indain corn and some sweet patoies and some tomattoies. and what ever we happen to think of. we also have a walk behind self pered tiller so wil be reasonable easy to till and keep the weed's out. In the raised beds are a good waste tall, so they will be easy to till by hand. see you all later on today.

Lloyd

I HOPED you would like the book, Jane.  And it gets even better at the end.  With so many negative things going on around us it is nice to read an uplifting book.

We've had rain, thunder, hail, and bright sunshine this morning.  The weather is crazier this year than is usual for NC.

Take care, All.
