Hi DD,
Your reorganizing sounds like spring cleaning. It’s fun to change things around sometimes. I used to do it more often than I do now. Mainly because now it’s harder to move the furniture around. lol
I am praying that everything will go well for the inauguration. It’s a shame that you spend your whole life in politics and can’t even have a decent inauguration because of threats of violence and all of that on top of a pandemic.
I hope that Trump is impeached so that he can never run for public office again so our country will be protected from him.
I love the cabinet of quilts and the old fashioned pet store. You find such interesting pictures.
Stay safe and healthy.
Gail

Hi Colleen,
We had snow here off and on all weekend but it was mostly just flurries with very little accumulation. It’s hard to tell as we already had snow on the ground.
Maybe your daughter’s little dog needs a sweater when he goes out. Our little dog Belle loved her sweaters and I never thought she would as she was a squirmy little thing. When it was really cold she even liked to keep them on indoors.
So far we have had a relatively mild winter. I would be happy if it continues that way but you just never know.
Have fun with the kids and stay well.
Gail

Hi Adele,
I like soup and sandwich too. I must say the pot roast smells just as good as it tastes. lol
I hope that you got a better night’s sleep last night. You keep the house cold at night. Greg would be whining if I had it that cold. lol
I will try and explain Colleen’s dilemma a bit. When you live out in the country certain cheaper and more reliable cable services are not available to you as they don’t have the same equipment out here as they do inside the city or town so we have less providers to chose from than you would living in town.
We are supposed to get snow here later but i haven’t heard how much yet. It can’t be that much otherwise they would be making a big deal about it on the news. lol

HI Sue,
I sure hope those darn pants will fit right when you finally get them-or what if they sent the wrong size or color? Yikes!
That is a very good question about the shipping cost. They must be pocketing the rest of the money and shipping at the lowest rate possible.
Covid is bad in your area-that is very scary.
It’s unbelievable all the army that has been deployed to Washington. Maybe it would be better if they just stayed indoors and inaugurated Joe Biden in a very small ceremony with just his family and just televised it.
We just don’t know what might happen in the next week. Scary stuff.
I certainly hope that somehow Trump would pay for his misdeeds. I would love to see him impeached so that he can never run for office again. That’s the thing that scares me the most. That his crazed supporters will continue to follow him and do his bidding. Who would have ever thought that a reality TV star could become one of the most dangerous people in the world. It’s just nuts.
I hope that you are staying safe and warm.
Gail

Hi Colleen,
I hope that you can find a new internet provider with unlimited minutes so you can join us more. All those things can become an issue out in the country as we cannot get the same types of internet that in town people can get.
It’s fun that you and Kaylee are enjoying the same programs. You do have to be careful of the movies that you watch when the kids are around.
You also have to be careful when the older folks are around. I remember I was watching a movie once when my MIL lived with us. There was a very steamy sex scene and as it continued I found myself sinking deeper and deeper into the couch. lol I was always careful what movies I chose to watch after that. lol
We may be getting snow again later. Not sure what the predictions are yet.

Hi Adele,
I’m glad that Belicheck refused that award. Good decision on his part.
We have had a pretty mild winter too. They are predicting snow for tomorrow and Friday though.
That chili sounds good. I haven’t made it in awhile. But I do have a pot roast defrosted for today. I like pot roast as you can just throw the stuff into a pan and forget it for the next few hours. Easy peasy.
I did watch The Mayor and got some laughs. I recognize the daughter on that program from a now cancelled sitcom that I used to watch. I think Tina Fey writes that show and she has a quirky sense of humor.

Hi DD,
I hope the rain stops before you all float away. So far our winter has been relatively mild too. Temperatures in mid to lower 30’s most days which is actually pretty bearable. Yesterday the sun finally shone again so Greg and I just got in the car and took a drive around the area to just absorb some sunlight. I feel so cut off from what is happening even in our area with staying home all the time. And of course I have to rely on Jenny for all my local gossip since I haven’t been to the beauty parlor in almost a year. lol
I must say I have never watched the bachelor or bachelorette. I am more of a sitcom person although some of them haven’t been too funny lately.
Actually my newest favorite program is Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist. I should not even say it out loud as usually when I love a show that’s the kiss of death for it. lol Of course I love any show where the people are likely to burst into song at any moment. That’s why I loved Glee too and Greg and I are the only two people in America to have loved the much maligned Cop Rock of many years ago. lol
I was always fascinated by the term Pineapple Express for some reason. lol
I love the flower pictures and the pictures of the sunny beaches. If only.
I guess that’s why I like to read as it can take me on journeys to other times and other places.

Adele,
Happy birthday to Sonny and Marissa.
I can’t keep track. Is JJ with you or back home?
I like the marble look of the new floor.
Jenny and Ricky stopped by to pick up a TV yesterday. Greg had gotten me a new one last year for Christmas and my old one was still good except for every once in a while it got a small green line down the left side but i figured it would be good for their basement for the kids. So they dropped by yesterday to pick it up and brought the dogs to give them a good run on our property. So we did see Jenny and Ricky for about ten minutes which was nice-I got to show her my new Christmas tree. I ordered new storage bags for both trees and am waiting for them to arrive from Amazon this week.
The Bears lost their playoff game ( no surprise) even though Greg was wearing his new Bears shirt and vest. lol So now all we have left is to root against the Packers. lol

Sue, Forgot to say that is interesting about the mail prescriptions cost nothing but the ones at the pharmacy have a copay. I just can never figure insurance out.
