WOO HOO!!!
Only some of it. Its on right now. Then, there's more gardening stuff from 5pm to 10pm EST. I must admit I bought a few things myself.
HOORAY FOR YOU!!!
, I'm going to check it out. Have to figure what channel on Direct TV. Saferbrand, some good stuff!!! have to find that catalog. Vingear, so many uses and if you buy the store brand by the gallon cheap, cheap, cheap!!!!
, it's 317 on directTv but missed it. More coming on later going try to catch it!!!
Way to go!!!!!
Calling for snow again. I just watch the NYC news and add about 4 inches to their snow predictions, and subtract about 10 degrees from their temperatures. I live in the tundra zone. Imagining warmth through navel oranges.
...Needless to say, I got both books (further adding to the old maid theory of multiple cats with pot roast leftovers). Life is so mysterious and wonderful!
) You are into great literature---growing minds---and sharing your knowledge with others. Plus, what's not to love about pot roast leftovers? Well I guess I'll be buying vinegar by the gallon this summer!!! Thanks for the tips!
I am so impressed with all of you and your 500+ posts! Guess I'd better get on the stick and post more often! I have to keep up with the Killers!!
I got my walk in today by sweeping the coating of snow we got off my walk and the neighbors walk. It would have melted by itself but I got the arms involved too.
Here's hoping there's no school tomorrow. Had to make the costomary run to the grocery store. And I didn't even buy milk, bread and eggs. Decided at the last minute tonight to make some stuffed peppers tomorrow. Something nice and warm while the weather is suppose to be horrible. 
I'll fill you all in later. , well sort of! DD's school is closed as is all the catholic schools in the area, most of the public too. DS's school didn't call it
. Usually how it works is we are closed if the public schools in the town are closed but they can call it independently. They didn't and it is still coming down. It's more about later when it's suppose to turn to freezing rain. The town I live in didn't call a snow day either. I feel bad b/c we have tons of kids that walk quite a bit to the HS. The plow has been down my block twice and the road is still white. Of course snow days are meant to sleep in and here I am up since 6:00, today was 'Donuts with Dad' at DS's school and I was suppose to help the mom running it, so I was up making calls to see what was going on. We chose to call our own snow day. Glad to report that DD's schools new Honeywell message alert was put to use for the first time today and as my house ph rang so did cell with the message that school was closed.
The people across the street always get it off early. I'll give it a little bit yet...now that sounds a little bit PA Dutchish. Later Killers.
Hi Shmu! Hope you get some precipitation soon to help with that drought. Would send the excess stuff we had here, but I'd never wish that on anyone.

It's actually around freezing for the first time in weeks. We hope to camp in the state parks there. Anyone ever been to Denver? Any suggestions of things to check out? 
. She's become super competative, gets mad at my brother and I if we do something w/ my mom that she doesn't get to, got my mom to make her power of attorney w/o consenting my brother and I, has cussed us out in front of our children, and then brags about how much moreshe does for mom than anyone else. It's so 
to see your family fall apart after a tragedy. And, right now, there is noooooo talking to her w/o an all out war. Believe it or not, I have not been my sarcastic self and instead have tried to take the high road. I need some positive affirmations or prayers on this one.
Hello Snowy TKs,
Not to be a Debbie Downer, but I have been having extended family problems lately. Ever since my dad died, my sister has become
I'm proud of you for taking the high road. We certainly know that's not easy for any of us. Not to play Dr. Phil, but it sounds like your sister has major problems. You are not going to solve them. I agree about you and your brother talking to Mom...maybe suggest that your brother should be POA with your sister if it would cause more problems with sis to be replaced. I think this is allowable??? Maybe use the old male superiority where business is concerned theme---no flames please, just trying to think of what an older woman would listen too. It worked for a friend of mine. Her parents listened to her husband over her but he had a business degree. Or say it's just a good idea to have 2 looking out for her. Do you have any aunts or uncles who could talk to mom about it? It's hard when we have to start looking after our parents.
