I've been up and awake since 6:00....just poured the last cup of the pot I brewed as soon as I stumbled into the kitchen....;)

Retired in '11, and I've finally gotten to the point that I can sleep in - until, typically, 6 AM... :facepalm:

A habit I have had forever :: Prior to hitting the hay each night, I prepare the coffee brew .. I don't usually go so far as to set the timer, so, I get up, walk to the kitchen, press Brew, decide what I'm going to eat and by then, the first inch or two of "condensed coffee" is in the pot, which I then drain into my cup .. it's a Poor Man's Expresso .. ;)

Red, my departed avi cat, used to wake me around 4:30 every morning, standing on my chest and meowing to go out. While I was working, that was ok, since I got up around then anyway. But he never could figure out that weekends didn't count. Kept trying to convince him that if the coffee didn't start (always prepped the night before workdays, so it was ready when I got up!) I didn't have to get up early, so maybe it was just that he wanted his morning brew.... although more likely he wanted out for his morning mouse.

I'm up at 5-6 every morning, but that doesn't mean I stay up! ;)
If we have something to do, I will stay up even though my pillow is still beckoning me, but will definitely have a nap that afternoon!
I've been going full speed since 6:00...:blink: Trying so hard to be a daytime person, and I'd love a nap, but if I do that... I'll be awake all night...:(

I'm guessing that because pasta is a staple in our home 2-3x a week in one dish or another, our systems are used to it without affecting us too much. French fries are something we MAY have every now and then.
Oh, my tomatoes are looking so sad, too!


Hi Dennis, long time no see! :)


I have jeans and socks/walking shoes, short sleeved sweater and a sweater over that.......oh yea, it be cold for us Floridians.
I gain weight just looking at pasta :(. We used to eat it as much as you…filling and cheap but I piled on the weight because my reality is that I can't eat just a little. French fries OTOH I get once a week when we go out to eat at our favorite restaurant :).

When my DR kept harping on me to lose weight (I was 6' and 223 LBS which I did not think was bad at my age, but the metabolism had slowed and the A1C had gone up ..) .. I tried that "Whole Wheat Pasta (also being a Pasta Lover) .. Blechhhhh .. I'd rather do without than eat that cardboard .. (not that I do without, I just eat in moderation these days .. I loves me some good al dente pasta .. :) ) ..

I just don't eat the Mt Everest size portions I used to .. Mike mentioned that Janet likes the Olive Garden, well, you can add me to that list as well ..

Fries .. ?? fa ged about it .. ;) .. thin cut only, please .. none of those "Ranch Fries" .. ;)

Well...it's official....I have no heat...:( I've reported it... it remains to be seen how long it will take them to fix it. The digital thermostat they installed two years ago, appears to have died. Blank screen with no readout.... I know they won't want to send anyone out on the weekend, but dang!! On Monday the high is only predicted to be 56....:(

I don't know how it is in PA, but in these parts, there are ordinances and what not that protect tenants in cases like this and require action, especially as it relates to cold ..

Does it maybe have an internal battery to keep the "program" through a power outage? Maybe just needs to be replaced?

Good tip .. :)
Excellent tip....if there weren't a lock box on it preventing me any access...;) When it was installed, I was told that by law, they don't have to set it for any higher than 65....I talked him into 68. What's quite interesting is that I received a letter from the Borough that they will be doing an inspection next month and there was a form I was required to answer, fill out, and mail back. One of the questions..."does the heater maintain heat (minimum 70 degrees) ?...

If it were me, and I was facing a weekend of cold temps, I would tell the Landlord you need action now .. if I did not get a positive outcome, I would attempt to contact whatever representation you have within the Township / County .. I don't know how things work out there, but here, City / County Government is pretty good about things of that type .. if in doubt about who to call, ring up the Fire Dept. or the 5/0 .. they will know ..
