    Good afternoon :) Just got home from the annual Christmas shopping trip/lunch with my dad. Look forward to that every year. Not sure what it started at but it's up to 25 and we are under another snow advisory for a couple of inches. Hope you are all staying warm.

    Good afternoon! Hahha. Sooo jealous of your temps, Dale and retired. I guess a good thing about winter is it tamps down the allergies. Sorry you’re dealing with that, retired. We got about 4 more inches and the lake effect band has moved south thank goodness. Got our groceries this morning...

    Good morning all :) Gosh, Dale, I'll take those 50s any day. We had 30's the other day with snow and rain in the same day. That has made quite the mess. Went out and shoveled wet, heavy slop after work as the temps were going to drop and I didn't want it to freeze. Supposed to get another...

    Good morning :) LMBO, retired!! Your college days sound quite familiar, but I ended up in a factory, then a couple call centers (not telemarketing) got my property & casualty license (sadly let that go) and finally landed in a local government office working on behalf of the state. I seriously...

    Good morning Dale and retired :) Grocery shopping done, just in time for the snow to start. Supposed to get a couple of inches this weekend. The only good thing about the snow is you can see the deer moving at dusk. Did I tell you guys that kiddo got acceptance letters to his top two college...

    Good morning :) Thank you, retired! There were some cute choices and I ordered a couple rolls. I probably saw them at one point and never circled back. Heated seats definitely come in handy over here. It was 1 degree when I got up. :oops: Glad you discovered them, Dale. Long weekends for the...

    Good morning, Dale :wub: I wouldn't want the wintry mix either. Woke up to like 3 more inches. :nah: could be worse I suppose. lol Thank you, Retired. I did see those. But was worried it wouldn't be wide enough for some boxes. Why are we making rolls 17 inches? Easier to ship? Hallmark was...

    Good morning, Dale :wub: How was your Thanksgiving? Ours was very nice, laid back. We ended up with about 4 inches of snow. Not too bad. Sun is shining today but it's cold, only 33. We decorated yesterday for Christmas and now I'm searching high and low for "Santa" wrapping paper. Walmart had...

    Good evening everyone. We started at 9 people for dinner. Added 3, lost 1 and now due to a winter storm warning, lost 4 more for dinner. :laugh: That’s ok, more rolls for me. So far just crazy wind and rain. Supposed to change over to snow soon. They are predicting up to 20 inches where my in...

    Good evening :) I’m definitely not a coffee connoisseur. I have one of these. I add whatever coffee grounds I have to the filter in the middle and fill with cold water. Leave it in the fridge for 12-24hrs. Remove the filter the next day. Then I fill a mason jar with ice and fill it 3/4 of...

    Good morning/afternoon Dale, Retired and lurkers :) Snow is gone and we are currently in the middle of a nasty thunderstorm. Gotta love WNY weather. SMT, even though I despise the snow, I wouldn't mind trying snow shoeing. Love the coffee brewing wisdom, even though Folger's is in the fridge...

    Good evening everyone :wub: Uhoh, another new guy or is this one in addition to the other one? Love the costume idea, Rat2. Hope you guys had a blast. We’ve had lots of rain and temps are cooler but this past weekend was nice. Got to get outside and finish up some stuff in preparation for...

    Good morning Dale and retired :wub: Yes, I definitely would miss him. Tough to say if he would benefit or not. Don't get me wrong, he's independent for the most part. My concern is he'd keep to himself and never leave his room :lol: Fingers crossed your guy stays! You been working a long time...

    Jeez Louise. I had a response all typed up and the Internet ate it. Hopefully this guy works out and you can retire next month Dale. I know you must be tired. What other kinds of things set off the detectors, retired? Joey, hope the time goes quickly for you so your schedule can go back to...

    I agree with your last statement, Retired. Grass is never greener and all that jazz. :lol: For us, I wish we could go back to having 4 true seasons. Now, Winter comes later and takes up half of Spring. Good luck with your evaluation. How is work going, Dale? And your grands? Rat2, congrats on...

    Good morning Dale and lurkers :wub: Loads to do but wanted to stop and say a quick hello. Glad you are ok, Joey. Kids and parents/adults alike are out of control these days. It’s really crazy how things have become. I waited on a younger veteran yesterday who blew a gasket because he didn’t...
