This week really has been a mess, but I think I got everything fixed.

Tonight I am planning to relax and read some of the PE Trump thread and the responses to the obummer me me me me thread.

I’m hearing that Trump tore up the enemedia today. On one of the commercials today I heard a reporter really giving him a hard time, but it sounded like he may have put him in his place.

[PROCON]

Hiya radu!

What's new with you?

I was out and about shopping today, made a list and everything. But, when I got home I had forgotten to get my daughter a birthday card; her birthday is Monday. Sooooo, I'll get it tomorrow and mail it and she should get it Saturday. Sheesh, I even had a list with me. :-)

Other than that, had taco soup and a tuna sammich at the VFW and now resting at home.

[radu]

At least you’re getting a thaw after this round.
But there’s still a lot of winter ahead. I wish you were able to find some young feller to help you shovel the snow.

[radu]

Have you reached the point of counting down the hours and minutes before your warm-up arrives? LOL
A month-long cold snap gets old mighty quickly. BRRR!

We enjoyed 64 degrees this afternoon but it was a chore to leave the house to do the grocery shopping. Almost couldn’t open the door because the wind was trying to hold it shut. It’s really been whipping the past two days.

Never forget me, son!
🇺🇸WE WON'T!!!🇺🇸
