Not quite caught up yet - lots of crap was left on my desk. I even worked 30 minutes past my usual lunch time. So dedicated!!! 
But I have to leave 2 hours early today - dentist appt. rah.
My mom is out of surgery, had a partial hip replacement. So far so good, I’m on my way back to the hospital to be there when she gets out of recovery, had to come home and change clothes.
All our best to your mom cupcakes. Tell her your imaginary friends are pulling for her.
Nothing to report here. Still working through a fridge full of leftovers.
It’s not raining for a change. Thinking seriously about getting out my ‘chainsaw on a stick’ and whacking off the branches of the neighbor’s tree that are encroaching on our roof. But it’s bloody cold out there. 30F right now. Maybe I’ll wait 'til this afternoon, when it’s s’posed to get all the way up to 42F. 
Or not.
Hope surgery is successful, BakerMom.

My first MMPost of the new year…
Got some lavender-colored, sugar-coated, chick-shaped marshmallows from Moanday’s race; that makes me a two-eyeted, no horns, flying Purple Peep Eater. 
Yestidy, I made the news. No, I mean I made the news. They used my footage for the story (& they also included me in the story.) One more thing to add to my resume: TV News videographer. 
Best vibes out there for you both!
Glad to here the surgery went well, Baker; hopefully the recovery will be just as good.
Having stood on the edge of Victoria Falls (and taken a helicopter ride over them) in the past 2 years, water falling doesn’t bother me; a 280lb, 66 year old fat guy falling is cause for concern.
So spidey’s famous now; guess we all should be asking for your autograph…
Still raining and looking at the radar it appears that it’ll keep raining for awhile yet. Oh joy.
Howdy Y’all! Been a pleasant day here in swampland. We went to Cheddar’s and then to Sam’s since they are next to each other and the parkin’ lots even adjoin. We got back to da cave, unloaded and stored the haul from Sam’s, and achieved nappage. Any desire for sup will be via forage. We shall save yestiddy’s leftovers until tomorrow. Oh and cake was had. OYKW got a lot of bday wishes from friends and family. He is now preparin’ himself a bath. Tomorrow is back to irk for him, poor thing.
CupCakes glad the surgery was successful. Here’s to a quick recovery!
{{{baker and mom}}} Glad the surgery went well.
Happy birthday OYKW!
I have my desktop back! I picked it up this afternoon and now it’s hooked up. My friend Jen even came over and figured out the scanner issue. 
Now I don’t have to squint to read my screen.
Glad to hear. As a non-Christian, I do not believe prayer works worth a darn, but I do hope your mom does well. Hip breaks are no joke at that age. Although it was not the same thing, my 91-year-old uncle had to have an emergency quadruple bypass, after which he recovered enough to play golf and lived to 97, so elderly emergencies are not always death sentences.
And it is 84 degrees at 3:10pm.

Did do some picking up and putting away this afternoon, but have a 7:45am car appointment tomorrow so I’ll be heading off to bed in a short time. All y’all take care.
Hey, we’re suffering this time of year too. It’s expected to drop all the way down to the mid-70s tonight.
Howdy. First chance I had to read and post all day. I was a ticket seller today which means I did not even get to my EOM/FOM stuff except inventory. Folks the holidays are over so you can go home now.
Our weather is hot. Mid 80’s hot. I have the A/C on around the clock and there is no cool Down in sight.
Baker. Sending healing vibes to your Mom. A broken hip and surgery is not as serious as it used to be. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. At least it was not a head wound which is what .took my Mama. []Cupcakes]]]****.
Sari I am mad at **HRH LUCKYLOUIEDOG ** for being mean to our cat. It is the damnedst thing as he is only mean to her at night. I am tired of it. They sleep together all day and she grooms him but at dark he is an asshole Chihuahua.
Rosie’s sig to everyone.
My closing shift called out, so I worked a double. But my pants and socks arrived from Da Jungle(Thanks ,Ruble’s co workers!)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY OYKW!!!
Glad mom’s doing good, Cupcakes!
I should go to bed soon, but I hate enduring the random violent twitches my body goes through before sleep.
Bah.
today started out with the suck but ended pretty good …still cold as hell for my desert valley ……but that will only last until the storm passes
wont be here much tomorrow as ill play pen and paper dungeons and dragons for the first time in a decade or two…
have fun ……
Drizzly ride in, but it’s supposed to clear up this morning. Other than that, just another day.
Happy Thursday!!
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN 'Tis 63 Amurrkin out and cloudy (well, dark) with a predicted high of 70 and rain for the day. Supposed to be rainy last night but it does not appear that happened. Today I shall take care of a few errands in town, perform candle duty over to the church house, and tackle the pile of laundry in the laundry room. That should be enough to keep me outta trouble. We shall sup upon Tuesday leftovers tonight. We don’t mind leftovers and should finish 'em up tonight so there’s that.
CupCakes here’s hopin’ your mom had a restful night.
Now I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, alas and alack, I suppose I shall purtify and don appropriate goin’ about the public attire.
Happy Thursday Y’all!

Actually got up at a sensible time for once, for the first time in a few weeks; probably due to the fact there was actual visible sun for the first time in a few weeks. The forecast said cold 'n clear all day.
That lasted until about 9am, less than an hour after dawn, when the biiig grey clouds appeared again and smothered the sky. Forecast now says some possible N.O.S spells, but don’t hold your breath. Rotten ol’ Met office, getting me all excited for nothin’.
Oh well, I’ve been down to the allotment, emptied the compost, paid up the rent for the year, which were today’s major tasks, and even did a bit of weeding, but without sunshine it’s too miserable to stay out long.
I think **FCD **gave me his cold. I’m snuffly and I’ve been coughing. Not amused. Not amused at all…
