Chicks and Roosters...part 2

We are getting a Kohls too. I'm not sure when but they took over Mervyns when it closed. Did you have Mervyns?

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

We did have a Mervyns but a Burlington Coat Factory is in that space now. The Kohl's they are building is new.

Good morning!

I put a deposit down on a puppy this morning! She's 12 weeks old, another Boston Terrier, and really cute. I plan to go get her next weekend.

Susan, How exciting! New puppies are so cute!

I grew up with cats but my DH always had a dog. We got a lab mix 3 years ago who's worked out well.

Susan that's wonderful news. Do you have a name picked out yet?

Thanks! I get to pick her up next Friday. I don't have a name. I've been toying with several ideas. The one that seems to stick the most is Daisy. I'm just not sure If that fits. Any suggestions? Here's her pic. . .

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

OMG Susan she is the cutest little thing. I love the name Daisy.

 

[MUFFYCAT]

Susan she's so cute!! I think Daisy is a perfect name
Just looking at her and saying Daisy seems to fit

Good Morning and Happy February.

So did ya'll watch the big game last night? I thought is was actually pretty good. I just hate when one team is so much better than the other and just blows them away. Exciting all the way to the end.

Four more days until the puppy comes home.

 

[Sthronds]

Good morning!

I sorta watched the game. I was actually trying to read but kept getting interuppted by pesky things like cooking dinner and laundry. I'm not a football fan but I generally like to be in the room with people watching. We (meaning my dad) were hoping Arizona would win but it's all good.

I also spent an awful lot of money on puppy stuff. She'd better be worth it!

Oh just look at that little face and you can see she's worth it.

Hello everyone! I'm unblocked as of now, but have no idea how long that will last.

Susan, that is one cute little puppy. Daisy is a perfect name for her. I hope everyone is well. I'll try to check in here and there.

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Nice to see you Grim. How are you and the family? Any trips coming up?

Good morning

I wasted all of yesterday on that $1 deal only to find out it was cancelled.
There were people that stayed up all night waiting for it.

It's true what they say, if it's too good to be true it's probably no good!

Joanne what deal was that? I haven't heard about it. Sorry you wasted your day.

 

[Sthronds]

I didn't hear about any $1 deal either!

Hey Grim! How are you?

It's only 9:13 and I'm ready to go home. This being a grown up and working thing kinda stinks.

 

[MUFFYCAT]

here's the first thread that got maxed out yesterday morning.
The second one was over 200 pages in 12 hours!
Just read the first post. to get an idea.

Hey, Tricia! We're pretty good, all things considered. Yes, we live in Kentucky, but fortunately, we only had a little bit of ice before a bubble of warmth from Tennessee melted it before turning to all snow. Still, it was a treacherous drive to work with the ice on the roads. Other parts of the state weren't so lucky. They didn't get that bubble of warmth from the south, and ice just kept on piling up and up on power lines, roads, etc. until it all changed to snow. I count myself lucky that we merely lost our cable internet for 3 days. Others in the state really got hammered. A friend of mine in Lexington lost power until Saturday night, and the inside temp in his home by then was about 48 degrees. About 30 miles separated my area from that stuff. Whew. Now we're going to get 2-4 inches of snow over the next 48 hours or so, but that's nothing compared to even 1/8th of an inch of ice. Most of the state seems to have its power back by now. We're a state that is usually in the crosshairs of these big winter storms, but usually end up with rain for most of them, with a little snow on the back end after the cold air moves through, or we'll occasionally get a big snow storm. We're not that well equipped for snow storms, compared to states further north, and we're even less equipped to deal with ice storms.

I doubt we'll be taking any big trips this year, at least not to WDW. We're going to be paying off debts probably the rest of this year, and just making weekend trips when we can up to my MIL's place near Cincinnati, etc. Maybe next year. I have to be honest, though: I'm still sort of "burned out" on WDW from our trip this past October. We had fun, but it seemed to tire us out more than ever before, with the crowds, all the walking around Coronado Springs just to eat, etc. We're going to at least wait until we can afford to go Deluxe again for the entire week before we think about booking WDW again. That will most likely not occur until at least next year, though.

I wish that $1 deal was for a week's stay at the Polynesian. No offense to NYC lovers, but going there is just not a relaxing or fun thing for me. It's a great city for what it is and it's the financial capital of the world, but if I'm going somewhere strictly for fun and relaxation, I'm heading anywhere on earth but NYC.

I ordered Girl Scout cookies yesterday. I wait all year to get those yummy things. Every year I say I'll order extra and put some in the freezer to have later in the year. They never seem to make it to the freezer though.

Grim, I tell that to people all the time!
It's so damn expensive why would you want to come here?
I think Christmas season is overrated. But I may shaded because I'm here everyday.


There's hundreds of people watching the tree lighting that can't even see the tree. People line up 3 blocks deep, with the tall buildings unless you're right there at the tree you can't see anything



Good morning all
