Have a nice visit to your old stomping grounds! Hopefully the dream wasn't nightmarish!
Congrats on getting closer to Onederland!
40 sounds cold to me too, just be thankful you are not in MI or MN like DD!
I'm in the white light camp, solid not blinking! And I prefer bright white (cooler temp) to the yellow white (not to be picky or anything). We need to do our decorations too.
-9 this early is insane, windchill or not! D****eps reporting snow in our old town. Yuck!
Greetings all
Everyone is early today including me! The sun is out and it seems calm although there are beach warnings for big waves. It is the king tide time of year which is due to the position of earth to the moon and sun in orbit which is about as much as I can explain. There will likely be some flooding along the coast. I have had my brunch and am getting ready to go out - must visit the gym. After that I will go buy clay and hit the studio. The low temperature at night has resulted in frost warnings but not a hard freeze.
Goodness DD stay home today!! No need to subject yourself to cold. Yeah cold air really messes with skin plus the heated air inside. I used to get a terrible face rash when I skied that needed cortisone. Hope you can avoid that. And hey no rush on the Christmas stuff. I like colored lights but all are good. Our neighborhood is full of inflatable Santas and such. Lots of kids around here. A book that was highly recommended to me by someone I respect is "Memoirs of a Polar Bear". I downloaded it but have not read it. Might be a good tea book.
Liz china hutches are rare things these days. Seems like the second hand option is a good one but I don't blame you for not wanting to paint one. Many years ago I painted the kitchen cupboards in my first house. Major pain. GL with soup!
So DH has recently become concerned with his balance and mobility. He has some kind of device that is a balance board. You stand on it and it wiggles around and allegedly improves your balance. I tried it once and hated it. But he is on a mission so I will go with it. Walking the treadmill which is a good thing. Of course walking on treadmill includes watching news and talking back to the tv.
Peps you are so close! We are rooting for you. Look forward to hearing about the school visit.
No clue on dinner tonight. I will think about it later.

When you yourself don't smoke, it's crazy how much you can smell it on others. DH's Uncle smoked a lot, and when I opened a baby present from them at a shower, the baby blanket smelled so strongly of cigarette smoke. It was incongruous that this cute little white blanket with bunnies should smell like a dive bar.

I got Chinese takeout on Sunday night and ate that for several meals (there's more, But i'm tired of it). Last night I got a pasta dish from Wildflower (I was going for soup and salad, but it was cold and salad at the last minute didn't sound good). I have the laundry room fridge and I can get to the microwave as that's in the pantry out of the blast zone. I also can reach the air fryer, so maybe I'll think of something for that?
Hope he brings you yummy soup! Had to LOL that he needs to bring you a spoon also.
I haven't been back to my building either and so far I really don't want to visit. My feelings might change as more time goes by. I did meet up with coworkers off site when they went out for lunch on a workshop day, and I enjoyed that immensely.
Only 1.2 to go to be under 200!!
