I love the Easter Bunny. So cute with his [her?] basket of eggs and candy.

Good morning Voltpeeps.

Cold at 36 degrees and windy. This is a good day for a day off.

The Hubby decided the puppy needed to go outside at 3:30am so with much loudness and calling, he put the puppy outside. Puppy came back in snuggled up to me and I was trying to go back to sleep. Hubby decided the puppy was missing so he hollered and whistled for the puppy. I guess I'm awake now, darn it.

I finally decide I can go back to sleep at 5:30am but the puppy found stuff to steal off the end table and turned the TV on by accident. Fine, go in your cage.

\Back to laying on the couch with my blankie trying to drift off to sleep when I hear Willie throwing up in the living room. I kicked her out, figured out it was Willie who stole a nectarine off the counter yesterday because she threw up a peach pit, cleaned up that mess and decided more sleep wasn't in the cards. Darn it!

The whole doggie ordeal has left me kind of grumpy and needing a long nap later today.
Motherhood is not always fun.

Good morning, Voltmaniacs.

It snowed a bunch yesterday but it was a typical spring storm and it all melted by the end of the day. 32 degrees outside. Crossing my fingers that we don't go too cold since trees and shrubs are already leafing out.

The dogs were all good last night and I got some sleep!

It's Hubby's birthday and his folks are taking us out to lunch. Nice.

'moaning, Volties.

Happy Birthday, belatedly, to hubby, Lizzie. I thought hubby's didn't have birthdays.

I've had a Yahoo mail account since 2004. Over time they've been adding more and more advertising to their mail client. The amount of active ads has been getting higher and higher which loads up the CPU and video making things slow down. Their latest "trick" is pop-up audio ads which add even more loading to the CPU and slow things down even further. I contacted their, so called, support trying to shut it off and got no constructive response. I no longer have a Yahoo mail account and my PC is back to fast again, even with twelve tabs open in IE and a few other programs running. I still need to change a few accounts that sent email to that address but it is well worth it.

Nice idea but too many places to change addresses in. I've had a Hotmail account even longer and that is my "main" account for all things vaping and many other things. Yahoo was more for non-important stuff but things I like to keep informed on. Switching to something else, entirely, would be too much hassle. Gmail is more intrusive than even Hotmail or Yahoo from what I've seen although I have a Gmail account, as well, as a result of having a tablet that runs Android. Then there's the FiOS email account, too, which I never use.

I just use Hotmail but I have several addresses.

Good morning, Voltmaniacs.

Thanks for the B-day wishes for Hubby...aren't you supposed to be hanging in the air somewhere on a mountain? I loved that photo.

Thanks for the B-day wishes to you, too, awsum.

It took me all weekend to recover from over doing it on the cleaning jobs. One job today. My guy with the half a job wants to go back to just every other week with no extra on the off week. I'm good with that. I suggested dropping the half days a few times in the past but he wanted to keep the half cleanings. Now, he has decided to try doing without.

Chilly but supposed to be sunny and reasonably warm after tomorrow. We shall see.

Oh! I found a nice website and it contains a section on how to eat like a Greek LOL.
The nice thing is the descriptions on every subject.
Uncle YOU can start today.

Seems to me that you Greeks know how to eat!!!!

Good morning, Voltmaniacs.


It is above freezing outside. Yay, I've been concerned about a cold snap ruining the new leaves on our trees.

Cash the Wonder Puppy is doing well. He is so smart. Yesterday I told him to take the bone to Daddy and he did!!!! He hasn't been overly destructive although he is obsessed with my nice camo hoodie. That is a No! I got him some new chewies and bones. Hopefully he will be done teething in two more months.

Yesterday he had two tennis balls and he played with them both at the same time. So cute.

I'm mostly resting up today so I can get through my two big days of cleaning coming up.

Mornin.
I got some asparagus and some pieces of a romanesco cauliflower.
Free food. :D
I spent yesterday and the day before dehydrating my free food. Too much to eat before it would have spoiled. Still have pears to do.

Can't beat free! Good idea to dehydrate the extras, Three.

Sounds yummy, Trit.

'moanin, Voltatics.

We eat a lot of chicken and fish but very little beef. Brown rice instead of potatoes works well for us also although sweet potato is good, too. I guess we could eat more greens and I love nuts, but onion isn't high on my list. I'd love to get some real Greek yogurt though, plain or stir in some blueberries or strawberries and a little honey.
