Good that you made it in, in one piece @danger_dan . Drive home should be better. All this rain and balmy temps will clear up the nasties out there.

Good morning, another sunless day, cabin-fever should be setting in any time now...might even be minutes away.

We got enough white crap overnight that DH is snow blowing our driveway. I may take the car and head out somewhere this afternoon, or ... maybe not. It may depend how my back feels. My dr isn't totally happy with me taking those tylenol muscle relaxant pills I have and would rather I take tylenol back pain pills and I did not know that when I crossed into the states with the former, they could have been taken away from me! But....I don't always do what I'm told....

It'll be only -4 today but of course when it's not freezing, it's flickering snow. Which means I now won't be driving today. That white crap made my decision for me.

@Natalka , hope you're spoiled with care today.

@walkonby , stay home, please? It's too icy out there.

@GoJays , you make me smile every morning, thank you, and I bet you really DO look younger than others your age!

Be careful on those icy roads which I think are down south, I watch Heavy Rescue 401..stay away from transport trucks!

Enjoy your day!

I like watching that show too @Lynn49 . Shows how much they actually have to go through when they're working. When you just zip past them on the highway, you don't give it much thought. And thank you and you're welcome

Good morning!

Had a Fab night - I don't remember waking during the night at all! It would have been interesting to see how long I would have slept, but the nurse woke me after six to get a swab (gah! You know where ..) done. One must get it redone when you change wards - then every Tuesday. That is new, it used to be monthly.

Neighbour leaves in an hour. I will be sad, we have gotten along well.

Just waiting for breakfast tray to be picked up, because then I can get a basin for washing up.
Brekkie was an applesauce cinnamon muffin, tea, and I had a Mandarin orange i saved from a few days ago.

Sheesh, this wifi keeps cutting out...

Hope you have a Wacky Wednesday!

Do you also watch Highway Through Hell, Jay's? I'm just fascinated by how those guys work in that cold and snow, keeping the Cocuahola hwy open. And you're so right, they don't get enough credit for the very dangerous profession they're in.

[GoJays]

Yes! I watch that one too. Been on that road a few times, however, only in the summer.

My pathetic, spindly, neglected, flowering plant.

I know, I tried, didn't the attachment open for you?

[GoJays]

No, not for me. I get an invalid attachment message.

Well, following good advise wrt removing carpet stains, its hard to do and then it looks lighter than the rest of the carpet. The scrubbing is hard, but I will keep trying with breaks. Have also been working on reorganizing the kitchen -packing and purging .
The patio has turned into a sloppy mess and icy. It was thundering a few minutes a go.

Just in time for everyone travelling as the weather people predicted.

My BrotherR has asked me to go with him to a Volunteer Appreciation Dinner since he helped by staffing the kettles at Christmas for the Salvation Army. I was going to pass, but I think I need a break, too.

See ya later.

[Lynn49]

No, not for me. I get an invalid attachment message.

it showed for me when I went "advanced"...weird. I'll try again...Attachment 348478

[Lynn49]

Rats. What can I do? Help?

[Natalka]

Lynn, that happens to me all the time with my tablet. Sometimes it works if I go back to the original post and do it again there. At times, after three tried.
However, sometimes it just doesn't work at all.
I miss posting pics. It's just so darned easy from a desktop.


Had a shower this morning, so that felt good.
Physio this aft was tough, but I did some good stuff.
I'm really pooped after that, but the new neighbour had a room full and they were loud so I couldn't nap.

Waiting for supper....
Hope you all have a splendid evening!
