Howdy Y’all! We deheathenated (did the Judas walk, i.e. leave after Communion but before the service ends), came back to da cave, had sammiches followed by nappage. We just supped grilled chikin strips with sallit. Now for more chillage and sloth.

**{{{Midget}}}** ::tacklehug:: yay for you bein’ here! Haven’t heard about a Christmas thingy yet, but I’m sure one will pop up.

**MetalMouse** hope you survived the day and are victorious.

Tonight is rain for us, tomorrow a high of 50 and then tomorrow all hell breaks loose with Tuesday floating between shitty to partly shitty at night. I love snow, don’t get me wrong. But when I have to drive with Yinzers in the first snow of the year. :smack:

You have your mother’s…feet. 😕

I have multiple pairs & styles of long underwear, cotton, polypropylene, running tights, along with three pairs of fleece lined pants. I don’t have issues with cold legs in the winter. 😉 Though, I really _should_ get a pair of flannel lined jeans, too.

Bless her, Marianne didn’t understand why I got tickled when we walked into the cathedral and asked the nearest nun for the washroom so that I could clean and bandage my stigmata!

Was the nun you asked about your stigmata Sister Mary? 😃

Ummm, the hides are to keep you warm, not to be eaten. :smack:

\<flees\>  
Well, that’s what a flea collar is for.

Welcome back **emily**!

Heathenated (the speaker was a WKU prof speaking on critical thinking), enjoyed the potluck that followed, stopped on the way home for some new sneakers (a pair of black Sketchers and a pair of grey Chucks, first ones I’ve owned in 40 years),came home, finished the Sunday chores, and had mojo poke, black beans and cabbage for supper (to quote **swampy** , "fart fest to follow 😛 ). Once KP is done, it will be chill time in the studio.

I made a big pizza dough. Forgetting I’m going in the hospital tomorrow:smack:  
I cut off enough for me a small sundried mater and mozz pizza tonight. Donated the rest to DIL. She’ll make cheese pizza for the Grandwreks.  
Siameezers are being very sweet. :eek: I’m worried.  
Surprise, Mr.Wrekker is foregoing hunting, in the morning to take me to the Hospital. We’ll leave here by 6am. Cross your fingers for me.  
Let the bloodletting begin (and pee-ing and scans) I’m hopeful one night will be enough.

I hope the hospital goes smoothly **Beck**. I’ll be thinking of you.

I wasn’t around much lately. I’ve been trying to get a bit healthier. Doctors think I might have celiac disease. I almost have an appointment for an official test, but it’s complicated. And worrying.

Evening all. Soccer went OK, neither team made it to the semi-finals, but both played very well and I told the boys how proud I was of them. We then adjourned to the administration building where I allowed them to shave off my beard (you can see the result on my Facebook page). I actually look a bit younger that way (IMHO), but I keep reaching up to stroke my beard, and find nothing there…

**Becks** , good luck with the Doctor stuff.

All the rest of you take care and I’ll see you on the next MMP.

Internet has been out here since Friday. I’m posting from my phone. Technician is coming tomorrow to probably tell me my expensive router is borked.  
Catch you on the flip side.

If they didn’t shred your face, then you came out better than I feared you might.

Well, as I suspected, my router was borked. I now have a new router and have to convince all the devices on my home network to play nice with it. :dubious:  
At least they didn’t ask me to pay for it  
It’s not as fast as my Linksys, but it’ll do for now.

Well, I’m off, and I’m leaving too.
