Morning porchers!

Woke up to a LOT of snow! Bur it finally seems like a proper Mi. winter!

'Course, today, I'm going shopping:rolleyes:
Good Morning Kay and good morning to everyone else. Nice nights sleep last night. Bed at 8:30 last night, up for a couple of hours in the middle as usual and neither Doree nor I woke until 10am this morning. Lord knows I needed it. Cold (relatively) and rainy this morning. Looks like a lazy day which is good cause I worked hard yesterday. We have a storage shed attached to the house in the carport. It has never closed right. Took it off and worked on it. Cut an inch off the bottom so it doesn't hit the asphalt anymore. Trimmed the hinge side so it doesn't hang up on the siding, new hinges and rehung. Still messed up. Turns out it was hung about an inch low and hits the concrete slab that's the floor for the shed. Need to do it all again and move it up a little over an inch. Not today and probably not until we get back, I need my tools to do it right (good saws and router). Was sore as hell yesterday evening but, feel good this morning. The meds thing is working out and I will definately be able to work it down to a low dose.

Yesterday was a busy day. Made some phone calls in the morning dealing with insurance issues. Also made calls to arrange the rest of the day. Washed dishes and gathered up towels and washcloths.

Went to foodbank, they had loads of produce. Some didn't want to deal with putting it up, and ended up with very little. My dehydrator is busy. Set up the trays inside my new oven, and it is running much more efficiently than the original heater element. Got a whole bunch of kale, and will wilt it and freeze it for soups.

We dropped off the groceries (leaving the frozen stuff and stuff to be frozen outside), and picked up my dirty laundry. She dropped me off at the $5 for all you can wash laundromat. Had a nice time sitting in the restaurant, reading and vaping. Talked with two truckers. One asked me if I vape other stuff. Told him not in this state. Asked me if I would if it were legal. Said I might look into it. (actually, contemplating a move, I have) Another babbled about his plans for a truckers only truck-stop, just hates locals and campers. The usual waitress was not there. She is fun to talk with.

Called a neighbor who came over and picked me up when the laundry was done (pre-arranged). Spent the rest of the evening putting stuff away. Suffered the usual consequences of having caffeine after my noon cut-off.

Dennis .. many years ago, in a Galaxy Far Far Away .. ;) .. I had my "system" set up to queue up one of these three at random at Wakey Time .. until, at some point, I stopped requiring an alarm and my natural body clock indicated when it was time to rack out and get up .. :)

My daughter graduates high school this year. Each senior gets a full page in the back of the yearbook. She asked me to write something to be included on what she calls the "parent page". Most folks just say "Proud of you, do well, love you", etc. This is what I came up with:

She came to us in ‘97
Brought with her a piece of heaven

She’s been a constant joy to us
Except, of course, whenever she’d fuss

The fussy times were few and far
Even less - after we got her a car

She’s grown up to be straight and true
Smart, healthy, and pretty too

Works hard, plays hard, yet kind as can be
A nicer Young Lady you never will see

She’s going to college, we’ll be left in her dust
But we’re so proud of her we could practically bust!

She’s grown to be known as our sweet Hannah
Not the same silly kid we used to call “Banana”!

ADDED:

“I love y’all” she says, on her way out the door
Glad you do honey, but “We love you more”

So, since there are some fantastic musical videos on here I had to share this one........Willie, you, especially, may enjoy this one! Hope I can copy it correctly!


Wow, that was really cool! Glad I wandered in here today and got to see it. I definitely need to listen to more, he's wonderful.
Thanks for posting, Gracie!
