On a side note, years ago I had a standing invitation to spend some time at Mike & Janets home .. that kind of went up in a puff of smoke .. doubt their daughter & son-in-law are interested in a strange boarder ..

But hey, I could offer some free bad singing and equally bad guitar playing as comical entertainment ..

Make few shekels on the street busking .. 'Man, that dude is so bad, we have to give him some money, how's he gonna eat if we don't .. ??'

Side side note .. Mike & Janet read the above and look at each other and say 'Whaaaat .. ?? When did we invite that clown to the house .. ??'
Easy-Peasy - August 23, 2014 @ 9:53pm DST Eastern Time Zone

Standing offer re-opens when we move into a new house. Would be excellent if you could arrive the week we move in, sure could use the extra help moving boxes around.;)

Been busy here putting up self stick wallpaper in the playroom downstairs. Well, it'll be the play area when we're done. Kate painted the paneling white and the wallpaper looks like brick and is only one the one wall. It's looking a lot nicer than I thought it would. I'm only 1/2 done, but already the kids are much happier going down there now.

Found this interesting article about Daylight Savings Time and Standard time.

Is the U.S. Ending Daylight Saving Time?

Awww, Willie, as soon as we find a new home you're welcome anytime, even after we've opened all the boxes.

Morning, all,

More rain, but no snow here. (Well, not for now, anyway!)

Found this interesting article about Daylight Savings Time and Standard time.

Well, my "vote" has always been permanent standard time, but the rest of the State's voters went for permanent DST some years back. Either way, just stop the dang change!!

Totally agree with you! Mike's plan is to change the clocks by 1/2 hr and then leave it alone. Either way works for me.

Sheesh, went out for breakfast this morning and it cost me $135 for 2 eggs, home fries, bacon, toast, orange juice and a cup of coffee.

But it was priceless as all my kids and their kids were included; Kaitlin & Brody and Hux; Michael & Miles and Beckett. And last but certainly not least Janet was along also.

Hola .. :|

On the Time Change ..

People should not get a vote .. was there a vote when it was implemented .. ?? I think not .. Bring back the consistent, regular time that was, er, classic Old Man Time for such a long time .. we're talking Prehistoric here ..

DST is nothing more than The Man manipulating things .. I mean 'Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is' .. ?? I never have 'Too Much Time on My Hands' .. next thing you know, somebody will want to put 'Time In a Bottle' ..

One things for sure .. 'The Times They Are a-Changin'' .. tomorrow morning, as a matter of fact .. all we can do, is kick back and 'Let the Good Times Roll' ..

Morning, all.

Clear and sunny here, for a few more hours... then back to rain, but no snow at our elevation.

So, when you're logged in, there is no green dot on your Cat Avatar chin .. ??

I must have looked when you weren't logged on. :facepalm:

Hope everyone has had a great weekend. I did not want to but I had to go shopping yesterday. I did not want to but I had to buy a pair of shoes.

As I was walking through the store, I saw a shirt hanging up and I swear it was the exact color of my shoes so of course, I had to buy that too. I had a hotpink day! The kind that looks like you have to plug it in at night to charge. Got a bunch of other things too. I need to stay home more often.

I tried to post a pic but it said it was too large. I have to figure out what to do about that.

I cannot believe last week I pressure washed the driveway in shorts and got hot and today I am about to freeze. I think I am going to have to get in the shower just to get warm.

With the way I sleep, I couldn't tell I lost an hour. I know it seems like I just changed the clocks in the car not too long ago and now it is time to do it again. Sheesh! It has been long enough that I forgot how and will have to look at the manual though.

Hope everyone has a good night. I am going to go get warm in the shower. (and start singing). heehee

:wub:

Another reason to stop the nonsense...

Several of our clocks set themselves via radio signal, the euphemized "atomic clock" ones. Yeah, atomic. As in AA. But the receiver does get the time tick from an atomic clock :) So at least I can use those, or my phone, of course, to know what to set 'em to!
