I have to a minute to break away from the activities at home tonight. The pizza just arrived and it smells great! YUM I am very glad they got 2 large thick crust pies! The boys do not eat pizza so they ate cereal and juice. The couple that is over tonight are expecting their first child in May and we are talking about how times have changed when men were left out of the pregnancy all together from start to finish. Like in the 50's and early 60's they did not usually go to the Dr appts with their spouse and they did not usually do the childbirth classes and during the delivery they usually just sat in the waiting room(if the wife was lucky,( I say lucky b/c my mom tells me her father in south America was getting drunk at a party while my gradma was in labor!!!) He showed up to take her home from the hospital! anyway I was telling the guy over here to enjoy it and not sweat it because it was the most amazing thing I ever went through, It's truly life changing!! OKay well I better get back in the living room we are about to start the movie on pay per view(dishnetwork) called "dear white people" I really don't want to watch that to put it lightly because I think it is very racist even if it is said in jest. But I don't have a say you know the women over here tonight are in control and I just go along and smile!!! Have a great night everyone!!! I may come back on later tonight if the night ends before too late!!

The married mans favorite words:

"Yes, dear."

It is definitely life changing, I wouldn't change it for anything.

And speaking of filling up the gas tank, How about those gas prices....I just paid 1.99 for unleaded gas! I haven't seen 1.99 per gallon like, well, it feels like a decade or more....I'm liking that a lot..:hello:

There's nothing like a little extra jingle in your pocket......

I paid $2 a gallon this morning, to fill up my little car it cost a total of $9.75. 37 miles a gallon goes a long way now. Love the low gas prices.

Hello everyone. My daughter has the flu. She is actually feeling better than I thought she would. But she's still not great. They said we caught it very early so that's good!

I hope you all have a good night.

Oh, I got to tell you what we picked up at Target while we were there tonight, a bag of chocolate covered UTZ potato chips....We were looking at that and sort of thought, hey if they can make chocolate covered pretzels, well, why not chocolate covered potato chips.....:hello:

That sounds like something I need to try.

Thank you both!

I'm going to watch her very closely through the night. It's sad to even write about but we had a precious little girl, five years old, in our church who died last week due to flu complications. Don't get me wrong, my daughter is not severe in any way! But as a parent you still worry. My heart breaks for that family. So tragic.

Oh my. That family is in my thoughts.

I have a hard time sleeping when my boys is sick.

Good evening,

I should be in bed, but I have to get caught up here before bed. I don't like falling too far behind.

Looks like we may have another storm coming in for this Sun.-Mon. So I volunteered to work on Sunday just in case I have to miss work if the snow is bad on Monday. Sunday is time and a half anyway, and we could use a little extra dough. So the last tree stays up even longer now. cheesy

All this talk of pizza sounds so yummy, we had crappy grocery store fried chicken for dinner. The boys love it, but it just sits in your stomach like a rock.
But I had a great Santa approved dessert, cookies (Oreos) & milk. Sometimes you just have to have a classic.

I have made it as far as I can for the night.

Goodnight, my dear friends.

gabulldawg · Jan 30, 2015

Goodnight everyone! Have a great rest of your Friday evening and remember We can all(hopefully) sleep in tomorrow and be snug in our warm beds!! isn't that the best feeling? OKay talk to you great people in the morning!

Festive Spirit · Jan 31, 2015

Merry Saturday!

Good morning! Hope everyone is rested and ready to enjoy even more rest and relaxation if you can over the weekend. I am off work. Yes!

I think I may nip out for a walk to the shops for a few snacks for our movie picnic and for the superbowl tomorrow. It is freezing but dry and the sun is also out.

See you all later xx

Good morning mmc buddies-just getting up to let the dogs out to do their business. It's pretty warm for 4am in northern Utah-38F,but I will take it! Have a great morning!

HomemakinGirl · Jan 31, 2015

Good Morning and Happy Saturday!
Just a quick hello, I'm heading out soon to get my food shopping over with. I'm sure the stores are going to be packed between the Super Bowl and the snow that we're expecting Sunday in to Monday!
I'll pop back in at some point, I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!!!

Good Morning, The-Weekend-Is-Here, Friends.

And indeed it is, as well as the latest count release:
Days to the Season: 286
Days to Christmas Day: 328

Today's numbers also indicate that we are now down to just 12 days to the 1/4 Season Milestone, number 2 on our marker chart.
(Getting mighty close to single digits!)

Cold weather?
Getting used to it.
(Well, not really. I will never get used to 40's temps coupled with wind like we had yesterday.)
Today should be calm and sunny but still cold.
For now, we have begun this weekend at 26 degrees here in central NC.

Hey! Last day of January. A month I'm happy to be leaving behind, especially this year with all the cold weather.

Have a Sensational Saturday, Folks. And get ready for a Super Super Sunday tomorrow!

I'm always fascinated with the winter weather, and I been tracking these sites for trying to anticipate when the next possible storm may arrive;

http://www.justinweather.com/news/

http://www.accuweather.com/

http://www.footsforecast.org/

http://www.weather.gov/

I'm hoping that this time, someone gets the forecast right...

I am always fascinated, too!
And especially interested now that we're living in northern Wisconsin.

With today's technology, I am surprised how in inaccurate they often are.

You said you could go on no sleep, and I said I needed a good night of sleep

You were the first to say how tired you were! And that we should get a good night sleep so we can have adventures the following day! I guess that bus trip wore you out, with all of the lovely characters you met! [emoji28]
