I'll go to the store here soon to stock milk and supplies myself. In the meantime I'm drinking my "liquids" and eating less to make up for not getting around and about as much over winter...I've had milk on my cereal, cup of coffee, one 16 oz.bottle of purified water, doing Hot chocolate right now as I type. Sunshine.. but you can feel the "cold".... also got an note...scouts tonight for our grandson. I think they changed the days recently maybe...from Mondays to Wednesdays....Ok with me as most Holiday weekends are more apt to include Mondays. Been watching them stage houses to sell on TV this morning...I think sometimes the people would rather keep them after they get them all spruced up. In this area...you could not get me to buy an million dollar house....as your neighbors are most likley three families of hispanics living together or else they are using the extra room to grow marijuana these days. Which means the FBI is probably watching everyone's moves via sateillite....right down to 3 feet and through your windows also. They said last night they were going to start to monitor both Facebook and Tweeter for "subverisve statements" by individuals they feel could be an threat to our society...hum. The thought of going out on my back private bedroom patio with an towel to sun bath in the summer naked...and having the FBI watching my body upsets me...so I don't do it..any more. But I understand they have an way to tap into your house through your tv also. Gesh!...I never considered myself that exciting. Most the excitment in my life comes from the novels and books I read. But I do see an new Christmas movie is coming out that's not to violent, so it might be worth going to see. Well, hot chocolate is gone.... so I better get up and get going...have an good day everyone. |

Enjoy your weekend in Cornwall - hope the weather is good. |

Sk Lawson Posts: 4014 Joined: 7th Oct 2010 Location: USA | Posted at 19:58 on 3rd November 2011 Ditto Marjorie...with you all the way on the tea...and may James indeed have an good weekend and enjoy it. I just had my Lean Cusine lunch with wild salmon, whole wheat orzo pasta, spinach and tiny carrots slivers in an basil sauce with some margarine...and "fruit" herbal tea...210 calories. Thought with the Holidays coming up I'd watch it an bit diet wise until they arrive. Bingo?...havent' been to one for about 30 some years. I like playing cards and doing slot machines better and not getting to far one winning anything much on them. My brother excels in going to the local cacino's but then he doesn't go very much either...I took him over there an bought him his birthday dinner some years back and won enough money to pay for all our dinners and the gasoline getting there and back. Maybe an nice payback for all us that day on our birthday's that year. |
