Will This Be The New Year MMP?

Got half the dealership stuff done. They didn’t have parts to do the windshield washer pump fix, so that’s a couple of weeks away. Also obtained some supplies (among other things, DH is lately killing socks at a surprising rate), picked up a book at the library, plus some DVDs, then got lunch at 7-11 (the Cheeseburger Bite is good, especially with nacho cheese sauce, and I crave protein today). Now in for the day. Still not feeling wonderful.

Soup should be done in about an hour. Nappage has been achieved. All is well at da cave. I yanked a hunk of beast outta da freezer to thaw. I shall stick it in a slow cooker tomorrow mornin’ to become the basis for either a late N.O.L. or early dindin. Don’t know what else might happen along with it except for sure baked sweet N.O.T. Oh, and I put a load of undies and tshirts in the washer. Livin’ large I am!

We’ll be eating a bit after 5 when the bread is done. So the soup will just simmer till then. Can’t wait!!!

**FCD **just took Higgs out - I bet that was interesting…

The snow has stopped and the sun’s come out. Now it’s too bright to look outside. :cool:

Sunny, we’re getting big fluffy snowflakes up here. We went to Outback exactly once. Have never felt compelled to go back. On the other hand, a Round Table Clubhouse just opened in our little town. The pizza is very good, but the clubhouse ‘ambiance’ is a bit off-putting to me for some reason.

Butters and Seanette, get better, now. (If you have a nickname, Seanette, I’ve forgotten it, sorry).

We have no place we need to go this weekend, except we may walk over to Critter Cabana later to get some doggie treats. I can try out my new shoe chains (like tire chains, only for shoes) if I want, so there’s that. Or I could just wear my duck boots, like usual. Decisions, decisions.

Wifey is puttering around with her art supplies. I’ve been designing a new train layout by drawing it out full scale, but I’m pretty sure I know what I’m going to do, except for one non-critical section. The problem is going to be getting the old layout down the stairs in more-or-less one piece.

I know, old white guy problems.

Good on St. Pat’s and UMC for feeding folks, swampy!

I wound up at Lowe’s for the salt and a small bucket for spreading. The walk is salted, lunch et (a salad with black beans, corn, monterrey jack and some 1K island dressing with chili sauce mixed in), studio supplies reorganized, tomatoes in the oven to roast for this evening’s quiche and a project started. Go me! :smiley:

Thousand island salad dressing an chili sauce. Good Lord.
:dubious:

Snow has stopped, driveway is shoveled, house smells bread-a-licious - it’s almost done. We shall dine soon. YUM!!

Soup was good, bread was good, tummies are happy, life is good. :smiley:

Chickin parmesan was excellent if’n I do say so myself. Plus, leftovers for N.O.L. for the both of us on Moanday. Win-Win! Soup is in two quart containers, nine of ‘em to be exact. I have made room in da fridge (with cold weather, beerverages on ice in an ice chest on the back porch is perfect), well beerator, for the containers when I feel they are cool enough to refrigerate. The containers have tight seals so transportation to the church house should not be a problem. Speakin’ of which, we shall be Luteruns for the second week in a row. I have ush and Lector duty at nine a.m. Hmmm… thus far in 2017, I have not attended a Whiskypalian service. Hope I remember how to Whiskypalianate when I do attend a service. :smiley:

Two homeless drunks go into a Lithuanian church because it is warm.
They fall asleep in the back row.
When the collection plate is passed, one of the intoxicated rouses himself and puts a ten dollar bill he begged on the street in the collection plate.

The Pastor and Deacon are counting the take.
The Pastor asks, “Deacon, who put in the ten spot?”
The Deacon replies, “The two gentlemen in the back row.”
The Pastor continues his inquiry, “What denomination are they?”
The Deacon responds, “Well, they sleep like Methodists, they pay like Catholics, and they smell like Episcopalians.”

So instead of 6 inches of snow, I got an inch of rain, an inch of sleet, and an inch of snow. But Gordie has made his yellow snow. I’m having a Mango Tango Foxtrot.:slight_smile:

Butters, do what Sunny said.

Low in the low 20s tonight. High in the mid 40s tomorrow. Low of around 32 tomorrow night. High of 50 on Moanday. High of 64 on Tuesday. Humpday through Sattidy, highs in the 70s. Weather be weird!

Flytrap HEE! :smiley:

flytrap, was that Lithuanian church supposed to be Lutheran? Or are there even Lutheran churches in Lithuania?

Butters and Nettie, y’all take care of yourselves and get better now.

Breakfast this morning was raisin bread, two frozen White Castles (unfrozen and garnished with pickles) and a Pepsi. I cannot determine if this means I’ve reached the “I don’t give a damn, I like them” stage of life, or if I am pregnant. Time will tell.

Refereed 3 youth indoor soccer games and had my ham-n-cheesers at the local family restaurant. Managed to leave my car door open and had to go shut it after the restaurant made an announcement…well, at least my fellow consumers were entertained…

More bills received and paid, they go in the mail tomorrow.

So endeth another exciting day in North Ali-bama.

Yes. :smiley:

Went shopping today and made a total of nine :eek: stops. I got bullets just in case -----. I got some of the cleaning fluid I like for my glasses so I can see --------. I got some tea bags so I can have a nice beverage if I --------. I got some rock salt just in case its icy when I --------. I got a shovel because shovels are always handy.

I got some other stuff too but it didn’t fit as well into the whole killing spree theme I had going.

I once had a customer buy duct tape and tarps, and then he started looking at butcher knives while I was ringing him up. :dubious::eek:

I had a bottle of Cipro and have started taking it. I know it may not be needed or the right kind of antibiotics so I will see the Dr on Moanday. I promise I shall go to urgent care or the ER I don’t feel any better in the morning. It took two Allegra D to stop the sneezing. Ain’t nobody got time to be sick.

I have zero appetite.

I need chicken soup so will make some tomorrow or get hubs to make it.

The snow pictures are so pretty.

I just watched The Naked City episode with William Shatner, where he killed his wife.
Keep this shit quiet, Kopek, you won’t get away with it else. :dubious:

It was originally a black church, and told in dialect.

“Ah say, Deacon, Ah say, who slipped the ten spot into the collection plate?”
“Them two gentmen in the back row, Reveren’”

Etc, etc, etc.

I figure you can be arrested for that during the Obama presidency.

I tell all jokes with Lithuanians now. I’ve never met, know, or heard of one.

Two Lithuanians go deer hunting. One shoots a nice buck, eight points, and they each take a back leg to drag it back to the truck.
A game wardens sees them, looks at their deer tags, and congratulates them.
“If you guys would drag him by the antlers, it will be easier, the antlers won’t get caught on brush.”

They thank the warden, drop the rear legs, walk over and begin pulling the deer by his antlers.

A half an hour later, Swen (I don’t know any Lithuanian names, this was a Swedish joke) says, “You know, Theolas, it is easier pulling the deer this way, but we are getting further and further away from the truck.”

I’m Lithuanian. :mad:
