I remember that blizzard. My husband and I closed the beauty shop that day. All the kids were home from school. We made snowmen ouside, and I made a huge pot of vegetable beef soup. My husband ended up going to the store for extra milk and toilet paper. My brother and his family drove over for dinner. We ate and played games inside for hours. By the end of the week the snow was about ten feet high and took a while to melt.

Good mornin all.
not much going on again today. I'm really exhausted but we've got a few things to do today. Walmart for one and probably the thrift store. I'm having some serious pain in my left hip area. I see my pain management specialist on the 13th so I hope to get at least an X-ray ordered. We'll see.
My birthday is on the 11th and I'm trying to decide what or where I want to go to eat. One place has a free prime rib on your bday. I could get that and give it to my mom and order something lighter for me. We'll see!
QOTD: never had a SO. My grandpa used to buy my grandma, mom and me a box of chocolates every year. They were the cheaper ones but I sure do miss it...I miss him. IF I had a SO I would ask for expensive stuff. I haven't had Godiva in a long time but I'd settle for the nicer Lindt candies. I like Jen's exchange. Steaks and seafood,
B: burrito and coffee
L: soup
D: chicken and a small amount of potatoes
this meme is my life lately LOL
Good morning everybody!
We had a fun night. The HotPot was pretty good, basically you choose your level and they bring the table thinly sliced meats, which you dunk in your Hot Pot with chopsticks. We got h, pork and beef round. You can go to Waygu, crab, etc. for additional. A robot brings the meat.
There is a buffet with noodles, sauces vegetables, appetizers and desserts. I'm sure they made money off of my pouch, but All in all, it was pretty good and a nice dinner. I would not order the chicken again because it's chunks rather than slices and I don't know when it is fully cooked.
After dinner, my son and I tied a crayfish pattern and a leach. We will definitely catch fish with those.
QOTD: Yes, I remember it well. Our sixth grade French class had a Field Trip to Quebec City and we had just returned a few days before the storm. My father and Uncle were at the Beanpot (College Hockey Tournament in Boston) and barely made it home in time. I think we were off of school for a week.
Breakfast: Bagel
Lunch: catered
Dinner: hamburgers
Have a great day, all!

Good Morning. I should have double checked before posting the menu thread. I got tied up with an incident on the tipping floor and didn't get to it sooner.
Believe it or not most dogs don't like beds in their crates. Meisha doesn't but does like her raised bed that is in the kitchen. For some it makes them too hot and uncomfortable. Of course, some dogs just like to be butts and destroy stuff just for the fun of it.
QOTD: We haven't exchanged chocolate in years, but it was Reese's for Irvin. He would get me a glass rose or jewelry as I told him I didn't want any chocolate. Now we exchange steak and seafood. :)
Happy Thursday!!! I got into work at 6:30 this morning to avoid the snow and it is supposed to be done by 2pm so I didn't have to take a PTO day. I like to keep them for the Summertime. It's been snowing since a bit after 7 and we have almost an inch. I think they said we are going to get up to 5 inches before it switches to freezing rain then regular rain. Then on Saturday night into Sunday we are going to get more snow they are saying over 8 inches. So not a fan of the white stuff. And today is the anniversary of the blizzard of "78". That storm put a halt to everything in New England for almost 2 weeks.
QOTD: Does anyone on here remember the blizzard of "78"? I was 3 when it hit Rhode Island. It was like that move the Day After Tomorrow. Nothing moved even the snowplows. The snow came down fast and furious at one point 4 inches of snow was falling in an hour. I don't think I've ever seen a storm that bad since. Even the forecasters were stunned by how much we ended up getting it was like 3ft and the storm surge in Providence flooded the city. They were finding bodies in cars on 95 and 295 days after the storm very scary stuff.
B: coffee and bacon, egg and cheese sandwich
L: thinking of getting some Chinese. Could really go for chicken teriyaki and boneless spareribs
D: Air fried chicken strips with sweet potato fries
No exercise today unless I get to do it tonight.
Have a great day everyone!!!
Good morning all and welcome to your weekend,
What? It's not your weekend? This is not right. You have permission to call off work and have a personal wellness day. Enjoy!
We woke up to iced over sidewalks, streets and pigeons. JK on the pigeons. We don't abuse our pigeons. I'm looking at you, Las Vegas. It will be a slow going day. I have treatment this afternoon and PT this morning.
My dog is an animal. And not like the K-9 animal but more like the Muppets' Animal. He ate his dog bed in the crate yesterday. He lays down in the crate throughout the day so I don't get him. He destroyed a brand Costco new dog bed last week. Bad Mish!
QOTD- What kind of chocolate do you and your SO exchange and eat for Valentine's Day? Since you're essentially buying the chocolate for the other person, how much do you eat of it?

Mel you might think I'm crazy but see if you can get some bag balm. It is used on the udders of cows, goats, sheep, etc. because their skin can get dried out from milking and the bag balm keeps them moist.
