    Good evening lurkers :wub:

    Definitely happy it's the weekend. The office was a complete zoo.....sure do wish they kept it solely appointment only. :rolleyes: Hope your work day goes smoothly, Joey!

    Everclear is illegal here :lol::lol::lol: Not sure if there are lower proofs of it that you can buy here, though. Awww, Rat2. I'm glad to hear you like my Fri-Yays, I use it as a pep talk as I'm getting ready for h e double hockey sticks.....erm, I mean work. I hope this evening goes well. Can't wait to hear all about it.

    LOL! Dale, it is quite a chore getting that stuff out of the freezer, for sure.

    Came home and I just don't feel like making anything for dinner. Told everyone they were on their own, since we are trying to cut back on take out. We were supposed to have stir-fry but some dum dum didn't meal plan very well as I had chicken and rice for lunch all this week. We will do the stir-fry tomorrow.

    ‘Apparently I didn’t start supper soon enough so DH did :laugh: Sausage, biscuits and eggs. Don’t know what kind of sausage that was but it wasn’t very good, probably why the food bank had it:laugh:

    Sorry your day was crappy, hopefully you’ll have a good weekend.

    Hiya, Dale :wub:

    Ugg, Hope the rest of it was good, stinks about the sausage though. I ended up with a handful of peanut butter m&m's :lol: At least there was a little bit of protein from the pb. ahahahaha totally kidding.

    I made kiddo some eggs and an english muffin.

    I'm whooped, sweet dreams :wub:
    Not really but my taste buds are out of wack, sinuses in an uproar. Chance of rain tomorrow :rolleyes:
    Got a headache and saying good night. :wub:

    I made it to the gym and had a good workout. I was wearing hot flamingo pink shiny leggings and that always makes me feel good. Was supposed to go walking with Jimmy but a friend invited him to lunch. I had stuff to do so I told him we would walk next week.

    Well, if I say so myself, supper was delicious. I ate two hot dogs. I made my own chili and it turned out nicely. I have no idea what I put in it. I thought I was putting Worchershire and I had the soy sauce by mistake. So I had to add stuff to it but it turned out amazingly well. Terry said it was so good so I sent a container home with him and I kept a little bit because I will eat it over rice.

    I was going to pour the grease off the hamburger and grabbed a plastic container from the recyclables. I sat it on a burner that I had just boiled eggs on and of course, it melted the plastic and I had grease all over the place. The first batch of deviled eggs was too salty so I fixed some more. Costly mistake considering eggs were $4.62 a dozen. grrrr

    The second batch was better and I will do something with the first. I don't waste. I have enough egg whites to cover most of the next week's salads. heehee

    Bought another cute little plant at Aldi's and a pink candle that was supposed to smell. I lit all three wicks and it was pretty but had no smell. Oh well, it looks Valentine-ish.

    I definitely like the air-fry microwave. The seasoned fries were wonderful. I am going to start looking for things to fix in it. I am sure there are lots of things.

    I found mom's old stove top bun steamer and used it for the specialty hot dog buns I got. They were so soft and just like I remember when mom used it. I do love bread. I can't believe I did not take a picture of my hot dog. heehee That is so not like me.

    We watch Open Range with Kevin Cosner and Robert Duvall. I had a glass of wine (because I needed it and I could) and enjoyed it immensely.

    My aunt asked me if I would make an appointment with my eye doctor for her. Of course, I don't mind at all but she said she would appreciate it if I would take her because she did not want to go with either of her daughters. I have been saying "No." a bunch lately but I am going to do it because she does have problems seeing. I love my eye doctor and I hope he can help her. I really don't mind helping her at all it is just I think her daughters or grandson or great-granddaughter should be helping her.

    As you can tell, my mind is going in all directions tonight. I have been running all day and I was up at 4. Maybe I will sleep well this morning. Fingers crossed.

    Happy Saturday! :wub:

    Good morning Dale :wub:

    I hope you are feeling better today. I don’t usually have sinus issues but when I do they are right up there on the list with ear and tooth pain. Absolutely awful!

    Ohhh Rat2. :( Sounds like you had a nice evening despite the hiccups. That’s so nice you can help out your Aunt. Sorry her own can not or she doesn’t trust them to.

    I pulled something in my back last weekend. I am ok and feeling much better. My mom had given me Advil dual action to take (ibuprofen and acetaminophen together in one pill if you aren't familiar) You can take it every 4-6 hrs but I was only taking it before work and before bed. I can’t tell you how good I slept this whole week despite the pain. I wanna know how the heck I recreate that sleep without the meds. I am amazed at how well I slept. :?:

    Tons to do today, of course. Hope everyone has a lovely day!

    ‘Sorry to hear your back has been hurting you :( That tends to affect your whole body. I’ve never heard of that medication you used but then again I just look for what I’ve always used and never explore that isle. Due to all my prescriptions I’m a bit limited in what otc medicine I can use.

    Yeah my headache is gone. Good thing as my SIL is bringing a Hope chest her husband made for Bela’s birthday... we’ll have to hide it until September.

    Good afternoon Dale and Sara :wub:

    Shorty :lol: Bela will love the chest :cool:
    :p You’d love me :laugh:

    I hope she will, not sure how to make her understand what it means. If nothing else she can keep her stuff in it and it’ll last her lifetime if she takes care of it :)
    Joe took mine that’s 47 years old and is going to refinish it and try to smooth out the corners the dogs chewed on :rolleyes:

    Good morning, Dale :wub:

    Those pancakes look amazing. Thank you! Had to giggle at the quotes.

    I love that he made you a stool and that he will fix your chest. I have had two things refinished in the past and they turned out amazing. My wooden desk from when I was a child, too small for kiddo now and I'm not sure what we'll do with it. The other was the rocking chair my mom used with me when I was a baby. It currently sits in the corner of my bedroom and is a clothes holder :lol:

    Cold and gloomy, I don't think we've seen the sun all month. Disappointed Saturday has come and gone already. I would prefer to have a few more days off lol But on the bright side, the vacation calendar has started making its rounds. One more person to go and then I get to take a look and schedule my time off for the year.

    Have to finish up my laundry and vacuum/mop. Hope everyone has a good day!

    Joe says he’s never done a refinishing before so it’ll be new for both of us, he certainly can’t hurt it. It has water damage.
    ‘We’ve had a lot of gloomy days also, just part of the season.

    Good morning Dale, Sara and lurkers :wub:

    Nothing going on here except laundry :blink:
    Good morning Joey :wub:
    I have laundry needing done too but will probably try to put it off until tomorrow.

    Good afternoon Dale and Joey :wub:

    Decided to take your quote to heart, Dale. Sitting in my chair with my laptop :lol: Ordering a pizza for 'Linner" for the Bill's game. Dh is going to make some wings on our indoor grill. I did throw some clothes in the washer and I will vacuum before the game starts :lol:
