Good morning. It's going to be another beautiful day.

Judi, what is going on on your side of the map. I woke up to 40* and we might see 62 today. Odd that you are warmer than I am. Sounds like you are moving more each day. Lots of things are getting done, seems you are doing well.

Lois, I find it strange that our tempatures are mimicking eachother. hope the frame arrives early rather than later and that it is perfect for you.

Jana, I am not a fan of electric vehicles either, and for the same reasons you mentioned. the parking lot at our grocery store has some charging stations and there are often vechiles plugged in with people sitting in them. But I would be interested in a hybrid.

Carol, hi, good to see you.

Maryz, your day sounds busy but productive and the reward at the end is chix parm. What could be better than that. I think your table runner is the perfect class project. I had the tupperware deviled egg carrier that dad didn't like because it was hard for him to get the lid off. One day a package arrived here from Amazon and it was a deviled egg carrier sent to me by you know who. But unlike the tupperware one the lid is too high and the base too narrow, it allows for slippage, deviled eggs easily become egg salad. Yes, stepbrothers came, I stopped by twice and step mom was very quiet. Lots of people at her house. She mixed people up but had a nice visit I think. I haven't gotten a chance to ask her but she will be here today. I only have one bed in this house too, and am thinking seriously about Jana's suggestion of a blow up bed in the rare event company shows up. Lots cheaper than a couch bed. That Jana is a problem solver, thought provoker and product pusher. I say we keep her.

Sharona, those mice can sneak in the smallest of openings. pesky boogers.

Lyn, always good to be over the mountain. what fun you are going to have putting that cabin into shape.

Maryq, thanks for saving me the hot water but I won't have time for a shower. My parents just called and they are on their way. I have abut 30 minutes to finish up here, get dressed and eat something. They've never been this early.

Lori, if you're going with Valerie I'm going too. She can pick me up on the way to picking you up. After all, it's on the way to her destination. dAgain, twins!! I'm not a red car person either. I'm not the stopper at round abouts and my week can, and often does fill up quickly.

Becca, so very good to see you.

Now, I need to get at least dressed and jopefully eat something in about 25 minutes.

have a groovy day and I have no clue what is for dinner, hoping for something warm and comforting.

Good afternoon from warm, breezy, SW. Pa...Oh my the leaves are falling...I don't worry too much about the leaves but my neighbor is out with her leaf blower all the time and as fast as she gets them gone, the ground is covered again....I just keep thinking, one day, a gust of wind will come by and blow what I have into the next yard or Kevin will mulch them when he comes to mow......
I do need to be quick today, really need to get a few things done and then get ready for a big meeting at the club tonight.....BUT, today is the 10th anniversary of our Chris passing away and also, it would have been my 70th wedding anniversary....I had an early Mass said for Chris, then I was going to get the car inspected (only 2 months late) but cancelled and then stopped at the Aldi where I used to shop....Had been thinking of my old neighbor and sure enough, there they were...We talked for a few and decided, we will get together and really catch up. I also had intentions to visit and put flowers on both Chris and Jim's grave but ran out and forgot the flowers......Came home and had a bunch of phone calls and here I am....Our meeting tonight is to nominate officers and there are a couple new members who have decided, they'd like to take over so it might get very interesting....

MaryZ, I really, really like your table runner.....Nice pattern to get the gals started.....Our show is this coming Sunday and so far, I have 4 table runners, 2 Steeler tote bags, 8 cloth books, scads of those square tissue box covers and scads of crocheted dish towels, lots of hot pads and pot holders, made with all my scraps....The young fellow who does the sound for my nephew's band is making stuff with his 3D printer and will be sitting with my....But, I still have a few days so I'll probably end up with another table runner and who knows how many tissue covers, lol.....
If Bill is looking for something to watch, tell him to join me on Whisteria Lane.....

Jana, Oh I don't like to hear that 4 letter word, snow! Although, it really doesn't affect me, I don't have to go out in it....A Tesla, that's great! Our Dan has had one for years, got one when they 1st came out and it's a very pretty blue....Those babies really fly (if you let them, lol)...He let his Mom, Kathy, take the wheel one time coming home on the turnpike and she really had it humming.. My sister and I were riding with him back from Cari's and he showed us how it drives by it's self...Amazing! .They are so darn neat and have so much storage room because there's no engine...He also installed an electric thing in his basement and said, it really hasn't upped the bill very much....He's very, very pleased with his.....
Becca, so glad to hear you're OK....Very, very sad to see those pictures....Just can't imagine going through anything like that.....
Ok, Chriss, Val and Lori, if you are driving east, you'd better stop and pick me up....I have to be on the way...I've not been to Vermont and would love, love to come along...I promise I won't take up too much room and I'll be good.....

Well, I'd better knock it off and get something done......I have the beginning of chilli in the crock pot but not sure when the end product will be...I might just bag it and put it in the freezer for some other time and just have a sandwich.......We will be having goodies at the meeting, yummmm

You all have a great rest of the day................
