Being a masochist of the terminal degree I’ll be watching (if my free ESPN iPad app works) the Nebraska-Michigan game at 2:30. Michigan is like 3rd in the nation and we’re….um…..not even in the running, so it will be a massacre.

She got named “Sweetie” by my tire shop guys when I stopped there to have her tires checked after I bought her. They backed her out of the garage bay, handed me the keys and announced that she was a ‘sweet’ car. And she has been. Reliable, far from flashy, but I like reliable more than flashy anyway. Kinda like me-far more reliable than I am flashy. Serviceable is my middle name. > [@nelliebly](#): > > > [@The\_Stainless\_Steel\_Rat](#): > > > > **nellie** is a better role model > > That’s odd.

Back in high school/undergrad years, I had a Dodge Omni named George. Never gave any other cars a name. I might need to make some of those dump-n-go recipes. Some of them look pretty tasty. On the theme, here’s my little green house. [[Album] imgur.com ![](https://i.imgur.com/phwsReQ.png?fb "imgur.com") ](https://imgur.com/a/AxTnqEv) **shoe** Good luck with the post game rush. ---

for whatever reason the rest of my post went poof Okay, got it to irk. Of course, the whole house isn’t mine, and the crepe myrtle in the front is up higher than the porch roof now, and all of the bushes have filled out. This is the pic from the real estate site. We don’t leave the trash cans in view either. The center of the attic window is what fell out a while back, or fell in I guess. If I stay here, I think I want to paint the house white or cream with blue shutters, but who knows? I want to move. Now waiting for the estate to be settled before making a decision. I used to name my trucks, but I haven’t named the last few. They were all named Tommy anyway. Congrats on paying off **Carmen** , Doggio. There is room in my freezer for chicken cacciatore 🙂 I’ve ordered groceries, and we have to pick them up at 3. I missed PT yesterday. I wasn’t feeling that well when I woke up, but after I took a shower, I felt really bad, so I cancelled. Unfortunately, I called the wrong number and cancelled at the wrong place. They were nice enough to call me back and let me know. All y’all got such nice houses. ---

> [@purplehorseshoe](#): > > 1a.) neighbor is mowing, and 2b.) it’s cold and raining outside. Mowing in the rain??? We’re home again. We delivered a large container of gingerbread to the in-laws, but they weren’t home, so we left it on the table. It’s a gorgeous day here and they’re out and about. Then we ran to the marina and checked the boat. **FCD** fired up the engine - started right away! But the generator won’t start, so he’ll call their yard manager on Moanday and arrange to have someone repair it. We’re going to take a day and go there to put the boat back in order - there’s random stuff all over the place. Plus we need to winterize it - like drain the water tanks and such. I just had a bowl of soup for lunch and now I’m noshing on some chips. Shortly, I’ll pull out the vacuum cleaner and de-fur the carpets. Then I’ll just wait till Tobias gets here. Hard to believe it’s 74°!! ---

We’re both therapists, so we disguise rather than post our house, but I’ll see if I have a garden photo handy. I enjoy seeing yours! Not very hungry, blood sugar seems stable, mild side effects. It would be wonderful if this Rx works. Three more weeks in the term with 14 group grades, 39 more complex individual grades, and a few hundred easy individual grades to go. No one can say that there’s no basis for their course grade. ---

Even though it is an away game for us, every if you’re customer food place here will be slammed too. My roomie works the drive-through and counter at a local fast food place (Runza) and she hates working game days because it is merciless morning to closing. At least Nebraska are known for being polite, almost to a fault, but it’s endlessly busy for the whole day. Do me a favor if you’re customer facing today: greet a couple of Michigan fans with “Go 🌽Big 🏈Red 🌽!”~we’ll need all the help we can get. Tell them it’s for a friend. My youngest son (a U of Ne grad) is working on campus of the University of Michigan. He lays low on game days because it’s so ferocious. ---

As a native Nebraskan Husker football in ingrained in our DNA. Michigan is rated #3. Nebraska is rated #97. They are in for a humiliating defeat. Five years ago the fans would accept no one but Scott Frost, who was the star quarterback for the 1996-1998 Huskers. He was fired mid season this year after a dismal 17/35 record. Our team has been very poorly coached for the last 4 1/2 seasons. At this point I don’t think they could outplay Michigan’s marching band. ---

> [@LH75](#): > > At this point I don’t think they could outplay Michigan’s marching band. We might be able to pull out a tie. Just maybe, if we avoid careless turnovers and stupid penalties. (I’m talking about playing against the Michigan band~even then our defense would probably never get off the field). Our offense transferred to other schools last year and is of course killing it there. Texas, you can thank us by sending boxcars full of good tequila. Hey! I just put on a Mumper crockpot of ham and 15 bean soup-it should be done in about 6 hours, so a late supper. I had Siri set an alarm for then. I had most of the ingredients and cobbled together the rest from what I did have-always the basis of a good soup. Had a pound of deli ham that had been frozen and needed using. Extra carrots went in, they needed using too. I’mma gonna have lots of good winter suppers, the crockpot is full! Thanks for the recipes~you guys are amazing. And inspiring.I could go on and on, but later. ---

That was an impressive tree, **Hippie.** Too bad you had to cut it down. I’ve had some memorable cars and trucks over the years, some of which I loved and wish I had back, but I only ever (sorta) named one of them, my "53 Chevy half ton pickup, who was referred to as ‘truckus’. It’d cost me an arm and a leg to replace it now. The cheapest I’ve seen one in the last few years was ~$14,000. 😮 There’s a 74 VW ‘Thing’ on facebook marketplace right now for $12,500. I had one just like it except with a roll cage 40+ years ago that I paid $1750 for. I know things are different now, but damn! Have fun with your new pot **Boo.** No I’m not the one who sent it to you either. Soup of any kind is one of my favorite things, but **Wifey** only lets me make it in the winter. It snowed this morning. ---
