Yes I am a troll on twitter but only in a sarcastic way lol. There was a tweet from CTV about an older lady who was almost scammed over the phone. She got a call claiming to be her son and in trouble needing $10,000. She didn't feel right about it and called her son who says he's fine it wasn't him. A person on twitter replies to the CTV tweet wondering where the picture of the culprits was. Below is my response lol.

Good morning!!!

Bad news: we got some snow overnight. Good news: it's not enough for DH to haul out the snowblower, so he's cleaned it up with a shovel. Like @Newfiescreech did.
@danger_dan, what a relief it must have been to know that your Wife is okay, and that those IT guys were actually thinking ahead and backed up your work.

I was scheduled to go out for dinner with a friend, but now she's sick, so it's moved to next week depending on how she's feeling. I sure hope she doesn't have what I and another friend had!!

Not much else....the construction part of the kids' home reno is now underway, but oh, it was tough to see that empty kitchen. But...moving right along, I'm sure it's going to look spectacular with the choices the kids made and are still making. We all just wish we could snap our fingers and have it all over with.

Have a great day, everyone...may it bring you a few smiles, a feeling of job(s) well done, and a peaceful, relaxing evening.

Here be your first smile...or maybe it's just me, but I love this!!

If this shoveling keeps up lynn i’ll be just like this ..hahaha we got four more longs weeks left to march ..just hope worst not yet come or its yet to come ..just like last year 3 snow days ..stuck in house and couldnt get off our street with mountains of snow banks ..keeping fingers crossed 🤞

@walkonby so sorry about Dot, what a gorgeous snowball she was.
Big for you, through to your son; I know what a very hard time this is.

Anyway the person I replied to on twitter tweeted back to me. They said they misread the story and thought my tweet was funny so my job here is done lol.

[walkonby]

hey folks....I woke up, can't sleep anymore right now. Thanks very much for the kind words regarding our DS wee cat.
Before I went up to bed I spent some time sharing funny stories with him about her, most of them starting with " remember the time she...." we both think that helped us power through some of the heartache over losing her because with most pets they capture your heart with their antics and affection.
@Natalka it wasn't that long ago that you and Milan also experienced the loss of your sweet kitty, so I sure appreciate your condolences. Darn it I know her name was NOT Vader, but the other one...grrr, can't think of it now. Hmmmm was it Taffy?

Maybe I better try to get more sleep....nighty night all.

Good morning everyone. @walkonby hope you get to fall asleep back. That was a great idea to share all those stories with your DS . Have a great day everyone

Morning Early birds!

Major accident on the 401 WB...apparently there was a female body found laying in the right hand lane...
Hopefully it gets all sorted out soon.

[GoJays]

And now the question is, why was she walking on the 401?? The one news report I saw online said she was a pedestrian!

walkonby, yes it was Taffy.

Well, another month. We are supposed to get a good dump of snow Saturday!

Take care, everyone!

Europe got hit by cold and snow, unusual for this time of year. Rome got their first snow in years...

This pic is from Ukraine

Good morning!

@walkonby, I hope you were able to fall asleep again last night and that you and your son sharing those memories of Dot will bring him some peace tiday.
@GoJays , our DD also has a March b'day, and is far from schizophrenic, hahaha...just don't tell me you're also an Aries fire-snake like she is! I once read somewhere that in ancient China the emporers had fire-snakes killed because they feared that they were a threat to their power. Yep, I can understand that. Are you a woman to be feared, also??

I saw a report of more snow for you southerners. Wow, you've really been innundated lately. @danger_dan, we had a melt yesterday.....heh, heh....😉

Nothing exciting here, dental cleaning this afternoon, then perhaps, since we're half-way there already, a drop-in at Fabricland.

Stay safe out there, everyone, and have a great day!

[avoncallingu]

Well, so much for getting up early! Yes 15cm of snow predicted this evening into tomorrow. Before Hicks gets to say it first - Rabbits, Rabbits, Rabbits! New month!

We turn the clocks ahead this Saturday night.

I wonder if the Smart Meter times change too?

My friend who took me to lunch yesterday was wearing a Spring/Fall coat which she had made with fabric she bought in Fabric land. The lady there recognized the material and complimented her on it. I have so many accomplished sewing friends. She just bought a new Janome as well. Lynn, you and she are ALWAYS up for dropping into Fabric land.

It's definitely a colder morning. Back to the fleeces.

See ya later! Thank goodness that March is about to ROAR in!
