Kid 4 started my car for me... Usually kid 5 does it. Kid 4 forgot to scrape the ice off the headlights. I did a decent enough job... but didn't have the time to do a good job... since I didn't expect to have to do it. My shoulder is getting better though. Very nice. Less pain, and...

That boy of mine... is always so calm. Seriously, amazes me. Most of the kids are really good with skidding and such. I am NOT. I have been up here 23 years now... but before that, the warm parts of Texas.... so this ice .... just, can't get full used to it. So me.... I use...

#3 kid has now been driven back to his apartment. I am back down to only the 2 youngest. AND, it looks like.... if I can manage... I will bring the winter tires up for his horrid car... get the tires swapped out for him while he is at work... and then come home.... Not sure of I can manage...

Spouse decided to ask kid #3 to refabricate (cut, then weld back together) the "free" industrial shelves that came home.... So kid, on his first 4 day weekend in forever, is working for free at the house. And... listening to... death metal country rap????? Or.... something???? While he...

Happy leftovers day to everyone. Best day! That freight train wind brought in warmer weather... warmer, as in ICE all over the world.

So... I was dead asleep... and dreamed that a rat was running towards me, across the pillows, right at my head... I jumped up and was 6 feet away before waking up. :th After getting over the shock.... I kept laughing so hard, it was hard to get back to sleep. Blasted dream rats! :lau

Hh:barniehh Another HUGE one! :clap glad it came out just fine.

Ground floor? :lau My house is mostly below grade!

Well.... 1 of my out of the house kids will be home for Thanksgiving.... So, 3 out of 5 will be here. I am glad it is only the 3... because the house is a WRECK, the toy/storage room is still not done. So, the rest of the house is barely livable with stuff piled every which way...

Wow.... huge blasts of wind coming through right now .... kind of like "oh! Freight train coming through?"

We will have 3 of the 5 kids for Thanksgiving.... just too difficult for the other 2 to get home ... We will be having all 5, AND THE BRIDE-TO-BE, for Christmas.... I am already looking forward to that.

A tiny bit colder here... But, now we are warming up

The shot has been great. So nice to have the pain start going down. I am sorry you are all beat up... I am amazed by the amount of pain you have... I hope it eases up for you. :hugs

And spouse said something about it being too cold for the wood stove to keep up... Yada yada.... So... I shelled out money... had a repair man come up and fixed the fuel oil heater... Came up today, the same day I called! :ep The wood stove heats the kitchen/living half of the house...

So..... In better news... I can now get dressed without agonizing pain! Woot! :clap The shot, and PT, has gotten my pain level down to a manageable level. I was even able to pick up wood and carry it to the wood stove, ALL BY MYSELF. :ep So, excellent!

Maybe a solar powered spinning thing that can sit inside the car and flash as it spins? But I bet the spinning and flashing flamingos would have stood up to your wind! :lau

Cold.... Kids just can't get the fuel oil stove working... Spouse has had it with the house as cold as it is, brrrrr... so... I need to actually spend the money... and call a repair man in the morning... Just, with the temps dipping down, the wood stove, which is only meant to heat...

Yeah... HOW is that possible?? :idunno

Renter of a neighbor.... not one of my renters.... decided to chop down some trees... No joke... and didn't ask the owner for permission. Yeah... difficult to grasp such thinking and actions... and no, the guy in question is a capable non-druggie. :idunno So.... seeing as ZERO brains...

Personally.... I find that grief and loss of someone you are particularly close to.... is like waves. Like you are standing still on the beach... you don't move... but the waves and the tide is always moving and changing... So, some times your feet are dry, and life is normal, like...
