Howdy from da cave. I have a sad. I got a message a little while ago that YP has been called in to administer Last Rites to one of the sweetest people I have ever known. Miss Mary is 86 years old and has had congestive heart failure for 30 years and it looks like it is finally taking its toll on her. I know that Last Rites don’t necessarily mean this is it, but it’s the first time it’s gone this far for her. She is in ICU and is not eating or drinking anything so I’m told. ☹ ---

Aw, {{{ **swampy** }}} ☹ 86 years is a good run, tho. If it’s her time, I hope her passing is gentle and peaceful. ---

Happy Tuesday! It’s FF here, a whopping 23 degrees. I’m a lazy bones today, I slept until noon. I have done two loads of laundry, walked hell pup (really just put her out it’s too cold to be outside). I feel like I am getting a sinus infection. **HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPAZ** Sorry about the race **{{{Spidey}}}** Congrats **Sticky** That is a lot of work! Midget I’d let you borrow my truck but first I have to get it up there. Screw moths and screw snow, I don’t want to deal with either. I’ve been up and out the door, up and down the basement stairs, have had soup, pizza and chocolate and I still feel fuzzy. Does anybody know a way to override a printer to make it print when only one color is low and you don’t care what color it prints? I don’t want to go back out for ink nor do I want to spend the money right now. ---

All of my online friends from Minnesota and Wisconsin are dealing with below-zero temps and wind chills of way below that, and I’m not. So, that makes this a good day. ---

Chicken Cordon Bleau for dinner, with Mrs. Plant v.3.0’s CANNED green beans, and parsnips fried in butter, except they turned out to be daikon radishes. That will be Our Little Secret. Swampy! Put down the megaphone and step away from the window! ---

lunch with leftover filet with bernaise sauce; dinner was not as good - chicken nuggets. ☹ After [del]beating[/del] playing with the [del]terrorist[/del] sweet loving puppy I looked down at my clothes; I had almost as much fur as he did so I combed him. There was so much dog hair that I think I threw out a cocker spaniel. ---

> [@gotpasswords](#): > > Lunch was a mistake. Ever have one of those days where you’re thinking “I am going to regret this”? Oooghhh… I’m seriously thinking getting out of bed today was a bad move. Yeah, I got a lot done (got a check deposited and a fairly urgent bill paid, talked to the car insurance people about changing coverage, filed our state tax return despite feline “aid”), but with about half the people I know on Facebook apparently having taken jackass pills today, I am majorly grumpy. Not sure even chocolate would help this one. Tomorrow’s super busy (errands pretty much all over this part of the city, with an instance or two of fairly tight timing). Bleah. ---
