Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy New Year bt and family!

I had an OK night's sleep considering I had traded my usual bed partner for two little squirmy people. The funny part was my cat Burrell yowling in frustration because she thought she'd been bumped from the bed. But I invited her up, gave her pets, and fell asleep to her purrs.

Oh! Matt's story reminds me I do in fact have a creepy vermin memory all my own. Filled washer, forgot to throw in the laundry and left the lid open all night. The next morning when I went to start a new load, I found instead a drowned rat floating in the washing machine. Yuck.

Happy New Year, billytea!

My new job starts on Monday, guys.

We have quite the blanket of snow outside. And I need to go out in it to buy snow chains. Not for local driving, but we are heading up into the Rockies on Sunday and I'm pretty sure I'll need them up there.

Very icky, but on the bright side the place you found it was self-cleaning. The only location more convenient would be the toilet bowl.

Now that's looking on the bright side!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

OH, I sold two books on Amazon while gone. I guess I'll be going to the PO today. YAY $$ and de-cluttering.

I guess since outside stuff is not gonna happen today I could list things on ebay.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

We were up and out early this AM, forgetting that the nurse said he'd be here at 7:30. Normally he's not here until 10:00 when he says 9:00 so we were disbelieving.

The car told us it was 34 degrees out. 34 degrees in LA is SILLY as no homes are insulated. So I am cold.

The blackeyed peas are on the stove with the hambone from Christmas. The greens this year will be spinach.

Nom nom nom.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I suspect your end-game is living in a monastic cell with a neat pile of cash.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Happy New Year, billytea!!

After a week of stress/holiday eating, I went back to WW this morning. Did not weigh in as I did not want to see exactly how much I gained, but I have mentally reset and have gone grocery shopping and have planned my meals for the week. I feel better already and after a week of good eating will be able to face the scale next week. I don't think I'll lose everything I gained, but I'll at least feel more in control.
