Ditto!!!!

@loaf,

Good day in Ohio I really miss you sweet friend. 😘😎💕

@oodiebom,

Good afternoon on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 😎😘🎈Oodie here is to everything working
out for you and hubby. 😎🎈

Oz is beautiful today we have the Sun and I am multi-tasking. 😎

Let me know how things goes enjoy your shopping.

@sheba2011

The dancing kitties—-AMAZING

At 3 AM, I cleaned the frig from top to bottom. Took only a half hour. Then went to bed. Yep, fell asleep at the computer again.

Didn’t go shopping today. I was on my way to see hubby and picked up some meds on the way. Decided to use Walmart for dinner and bought a salad. However, I noticed when I opened my bag that the credit cards were missing along with my driver’s license. I returned to the car after paying for the salad and went through everything. Decided I needed to return home and see if I left them on the desk. Arrived home OK and went to get the key for the door and lo and behold, there were the credit cards and even my driver’s license. Of course they were in the wrong spot. Talk about what your mind was doing at the time????

I didn’t see hubby tonight. Tomorrow will go to the Farmer’s Market for veggies. Sometimes I crave for a veggie stir fry. Or, to make a soup. I will need to check with the RN to see if this is possible for hubby. I don’t dare try it without asking. He gets into a coughing fit which is difficult to watch. One on duty RN did give him cough medicine which worked. No one else had tried that. I ordered the single serve coffee maker with the carafe from HSN and it arrive yesterday. I am thinking that I may take this machine with me to the Rehab and make hubby some tea with Manuka. I enjoy the loose tea rather than teabags. May give it a try.

The moon is full tonight. We haven’t seen much of the moon because of cloud cover. No rain since the last storm. Tomorrow I will water the plants. Still watching the tropics. Florida may see just a rain event. Not sure since some stations still say a major hurricane. Should know one way or the other by Sunday.

Hope you three have a great evening. Stay safe.

@oodiebom,

Good Evening the moon is big and bright here in OZ. I just came in from a crisp night we
are in the 40’s. All the cats have been feed. YAY!

I hope you are getting some rest. Hubby will be so pleased to see you when he does. 💕

Enjoy a good book and some tea with your Manuka Honey. 💕😎

Sweet Dreams Oodie.

@taci,

Good morning in S. California. I hope your son told you some good things about
his trip. 😎💕My niece is back in SD and she had a great time with her friends.

Oz is alright today I am doing things I need to do today. LOL!

Happy Trails To You. 🎶😘🎈

Sheba, My son had fun. Toured and visited historic sites. I think he and his bud will go again to see more of the sites.
I understand rent can be high in all coastal areas there are plenty of places to live outside the high cost locations. It’s a choice in my view. They are always building in the area where I live and all nearby Cities. My 1st year in S CA I lived in a house in a suburb in the Valley and commuted 1 hour each way sometimes more. This wasn’t unusual for people to do.
It’s great you can walk in heels and are in great shape. That takes effort.

@taci,

Good Evening this is a one day trip for your son or a weekend and he is back.
My niece spends the weekend with friends and walks across the border and into
her car. 😎💕They tour and look at many things. I still don’t like it too much is going
on just go and come back quick.

Taci I do not do the heels walking anymore where I lived I took public transportation and when
I was in New York City well you always dressed to the nines even in the daytime. I had no
problem ever wearing heels. I am comfortable in my flats when I do garden or walk long
distance with Poppy. 💕😎 I am all about comfort and you need a good pair of shoes
for whatever you do. 💕😎

Enjoy your evening. 😘🎈Hey look up at the Moon it is so beautiful.

@shoelady60,

Good afternoon in the ‘burgh. 😘🎈😎I hope this is a good Thursday for you.
Moving forward your team will be alright. I have faith.

Hey enjoy this day I am multi-tasking doing this and that. Never a dull moment in OZ.

I am making some BLT for lunch. 💕😎🎈

Sending warm vibes to you and Jake. 😘💕😎

@kittengirl,

Good Morning Kitten wishing you a nice Thursday sending you some flowers. 💕🎈😎

Autumn Leaves
Song by Nat King Cole

The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

@loaf,

Good day in Ohio I hope this is a wonderful Wednesday for you. Miss ya. 🎈😎

@xango,

Good day in sunny Florida. 🎈😎May this Wednesday be a good one for you.
Oz is raining very heavy and it is needed. I still have flowers growing because we have
had a lot of sunshine no real hard freeze yet.

How is your decorating for fall going? I think all of us are on the same page with
getting ready for the holidays. I love doing it and I am doing a little everyday.

Enjoy! 🎈😎

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Oodie I am so glad your devices were found in
a timely manner. 💕

Great they are working with your husband to get him to and from the car to go out.
I would be like a kid in a candy store too if that were me. 🎈😎

Please no more storms in your area. Oz is raining right now and it is dark. I am typing
this to you around 11:00 a.m. and it looks like late evening been this way all morning.
No worries we need the rain. 😎😘

I have a lot on my plate so the next few weeks I will be coming and going. LOL!

Oodie stay safe out there I am looking for Dragon Fruit as well and it is not easy to come
by in Kansas. So glad you got your devices back. 🎈

@sheba2011

I am running extremely late. I’ve been on the phone all morning with auto insurance. I just finished and have received the update in e-mail. This helps to give hubby all the info and for us together make the final decision. I have not been to either market. Today is the last day of the sale with the Farmers. Guess I will make a stop for Asian.

All cable stations are saying this could be a category 3 storm. We are expected to get a cold front the end of the week and through the weekend. Don’t know if this will be enough to downgrade the storm which is expected to be here a week from today. Fingers and toes are crossed as well as sending prayers. I am getting the den ready with huge bins, just in case. Doctor appointment is next week. Hope I won’t need to cancel.

@oodiebom,

Good Evening I hope you can slow down a bit now that you have some info to go on
with the insurance.

I would get the Market down another day. Enjoy this evening with your husband.
I am praying no more storms in your area.

Sweet Dreams Oodie. 😘😎

@taci,

Good morning in S. California. 🎈😘😎Taci very happy your son is home safe.
Taci my niece friends all moved to Mexico because of the housing being expensive
in SD. The kids walk across the boarder everyday and they are picked up by friends.
This has been going on for years. I know a lot of people go to the Resorts down there
and have a great time. I always have my niece text me when she is back home.

Taci are these the steps? I can handle that I see why you love it. This is a great workout
for the legs and the gluteus maximus. 💕😎 I have long legs and a nice tush.
I use to be a workout addict because I like how I felt after a good workout. My endorphins
were off the charts. 💕😎🎈

I am sure your son has stories to tell about his visit and I am sure he will be going back.

Hey Happy Trails. 🎶🎶 Very rainy and chilly in OZ today. 💕😎

Sheba, Hello. Rent is expensive all over SD. Do these friends work on the US side? When I was just out of College and new to living in LA , with the high rents, I got a 2nd job and babysat. Then I managed to get into a rent controlled studio. Still expensive to me but that’s how I managed it. I have heard stories of 8 students in a one or 2 bedroom apt.
For me, it’s a no. No living there and no vacationing there. Like you, I know many people do and seem to enjoy it. Back in the day when we lived in the very cold mid west, my parents had friends who went to Acapulco for the warm weather.
Yes, those are the steps. See all those steps? It’s much easier to get exercise where for me it takes effort. I think Co and AZ have an incline (step hikes). I’m not surprised you can do these steps. You seem to be in great shape!

@taci,

Good Evening those young college educated kids all work in the USA. 😎 The only reason
they live in Mexico is that it is cheaper. I think it’s a regional things because I know of no
other place that you can work, go to school and cross everyday into the USA. I know
a bit about this because my niece does on the regular to visit friends but it’s not just
any place where the kids are going is a safe and secure place. I would not try it I would
work three jobs if necessary and no I will not have room mates!

The world is changing and not in a good way our kids should not have to leave the
US to leave in that part of the country. Great for a vacation and having fun but I cannot
live there.Taci every one of her friends are from the LA and SD area.

Yeah I am in good shape always have been. Just that sneaky BC that they caught in time
but I still went through all the emotion and stress I still had weeks of treatments during
Covid-19 shutdown. I also had surgery but I still have them. 💕I come to the end of the
road on this next month so I am walking tender.

I love those steps I have done some almost like that when I wore high heel shoes I would
get stopped on the streets and women would ask how did I do it. I was a model and we
learned how to walk in them. 😎🎈

@shoelady60,

Good day in the ‘burgh. 😎💕🎈Lady how are you today?

I hope your sister brought some real goodies from Costco. 💕😎

Hey enjoy her visit and your Hockey Game I hope your team wins. 😘😎🎈

Enjoy some warm tea to start the day. 💕🎈

Sending warm vibes to you and Jake. 😎😘

@sheba2011

Running late all day today. Sis stopped with some soup, shrimp and a couple long sleeved t-shirts for my husband.🥣🍤 Then we sat and talked for awhile. Just finishing up dinner.

I will give the game a chance; after the last disaster, I may be done watching in ten minutes.😣 Like you, have to run around tomorrow morning.

Sending love and hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Oh my the Hockey Game is still going. Wishing you the best of luck. 🎈😎😘

Enjoy! Good night.

@kittengirl,

Good morning Kitten in California perhaps one day you will post again. 😘😎🎈

I know how you feel I miss my dad everyday but a son is a different story.

Kissing a Fool
Song by George Michael

You are far
When I could have been your star
You listened to people
Who scared you to death and from my heart
Strange that you were strong enough
To even make a start
But you’ll never find peace of mind
‘Til you listen to your heart
People
You can never change the way they feel
Better let them do just what they will
For they will
If you let them steal your heart from you
People
Will always make a lover feel a fool
But you knew I loved you
We could have shown them all
We should have seen love through
Fooled me with the tears in your eyes
Covered me with kisses and lies
So goodbye
But please don’t take my heart
You are far
I’m never gonna be your star
I’ll pick up the pieces
And mend my heart
Maybe I’ll be strong enough
I don’t know where to start
But I’ll never find peace of mind
While I listen to my heart
People
You can never change the way they feel
Better let them do just what they will
For they will
If you let them steal your heart
And people
Will always make a lover feel a fool
But you knew I loved you
We could have shown them all
But remember this, every other kiss
That you ever give long as we both live
When you need the hand of another man
One you really can surrender with
I will wait for you like I always do
There’s something there
That can’t compare with any other
You are far
When I could have been your star
You listened to people
Who scared you to death and from my heart
Strange that I was wrong enough
To think you’d love me too
I guess you were kissing a fool

NATIONAL PIZZA WITH THE WORKS EXCEPT ANCHOVIES DAY

National Pizza with the Works Except Anchovies Day says to hold the fishes! Anchovy lovers move over on November 12th. All the other pizza lovers get their due and pile on their toppings. This annual pizza holiday gets the spotlight with olives, pepperoni, sausage, peppers, and onions. How about mushrooms, bacon, or pineapple? Approved! Just no fishy business on this national day, or no pizza for you!

NATIONAL FRENCH DIP DAY

On November 12th, warm up some au jus and celebrate National French Dip Day!

Served up hot, tender slices of beef or pork on a French roll make up a delicious sandwich. Sometimes cheese is added. However, the key ingredients are the au jus and spicy mustard. The combination of tender beef swimming in a flavor bath of pan drippings absorbed into the crusty roll makes the French dip a decadent, multi-napkin experience everyone needs to have.

NATIONAL CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SOUL DAY

National Chicken Soup for the Soul Day celebrates who you are and how you get there. Take time to nurture your soul on November 12th.

A little chicken soup does a lot of good. It’s warm and hearty. As we cup our hands around the bowl, the heat radiates into our bodies. The steam hits our face with a comforting aroma. Similar to what chicken soup does for our bodies, the regular nurturing of our souls benefits our health. Whether you pick up a book, meditate or go for a long walk, reflect on who you are and your achievements.

Tuesday Afternoon
Song by The Moody Blues

Tuesday afternoon
I’m just beginning to see
Now I’m on my way
It doesn’t matter to me
Chasing the clouds away
Something calls to me
The trees are drawing me near
I’ve got to find out why
Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh
I’m looking at myself reflections of my mind
It’s just the kind of day to leave myself behind
So gently swaying through the fairyland of love
If you’ll just come with me you’ll see the beauty of
Tuesday afternoon
Tuesday afternoon
Tuesday afternoon
I’m just beginning to see
Now I’m on my way
It doesn’t matter to me
Chasing the clouds away
Something calls to me
The trees are drawing me near
I’ve got to find out why
Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh

Good Morning in Ohio Loaf here is to a nice Tuesday for you and the Kidz. 🎈😎

@xango,

Good day in Florida and here is to cooler weather without a storm. 😎💕

Oz is alright today we are in the 50’s and very sunny. 😎

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 😎🎈💕Oodie how is everything going for you today?
I hope the bathroom redo is all that you want it to be. I hope your husband will love it.

I am on the hunt for a few things before ole man winter gets here. I am so sorry to hear

@sheba2011

Good Evening. I just finished with a CS chat. I don’t recall if I mentioned that I left my Amazon
tablet in hubby’s room Saturday night. When I returned yesterday it still wasn’t around. Not to worry. All private info was taken care of immediately. I stopped at the reception desk and mentioned it and within a half hour it was found. There was no way anyone could use it. Also found was my paperwhite tablet. Both are my favorite devices and I must admit, I have many.

Hubby is awesome. I met with the head nurse today and he will be working with me to get hubby into the car. However, I also mentioned that he might like to visit Costco and the Farmer’s Market. Both he and Physical Therapy will work with me in getting him in and out of our vehicle and into a cart for riding around either place. He will be like a kid in a candy store. So exciting…..😀🧨🎹🎵🌈 It was this nurse that found my devices.

Tomorrow the Farmer’s Market and Aldi. I love the Dragon Fruit and Blueberries together. However, there are times when I do both in a dish or two. Love the dragon fruit with eggs and also with chicken, pork and beef. Each brings on a different flavor/taste. Tomorrow is veggie day. I want to do a stir fry. By the way, I love the hex clad and also the new stainless steel pots and pans that keep the food from sticking. Clean up has never been so easy.

I’m cleaning the frig tonight. Decided the freezer really needed a cleaning even though I did it just a few weeks ago. This will keep me from falling asleep at the computer. I’m also watching the tropics again. This one looks serious even though there is a slight chance it won’t materialize. Fingers are crossed, toes also….

@taci,

Good morning in S. California. 🎈😎😘Taci did your son make it home last night?
OZ is beautiful today we are 56 degrees with the Sun. 😎🎈

I am getting my steps in with walking. The moon was beautiful during my walk last evening.
I am talking around 6:00 p.m. very dark and with a beautiful moon. 💕🎈Hubby was not
home yet from work.

Happy Trails where ever they lead you. 😎🎈💕

Sheba, Yes, my son made it here safely. They had a good time and said there was a lot to see. My son had to go right back to work.
Your kids are busy with travel and work. It’s good to be busy.
It was interesting to read about your niece going to Mexico so often. Here’s a tid bit that I didn’t know, but you might. Mexico City is sinking. It was built on a Lake. I learn the craziest stuff from kids.
I miss all the steps and walking from Vacation. Look up Coimbra Univ. (Portugal) Steps. We toured the area and visited some of the museums there. Some students wear long dark robes. When we arrived it was evening and it was an interesting site, especially since we didn’t know about the tradition.
Funny about the cats having expensive tastes.

@shoelady60,

Good day in the ‘burgh. I hope you and hubby had a nice Veterans Day. 🎈😎

I am making some Rib-Eye Steaks today with all the fixings. 💕 This is so easy to
make I go for a nice walk and when I get back home you can smell the food.

How is your mother and sister? All is well in OZ.

Hey everyone is over the football Game. LOL! This is a family thing. 💕😎

Enjoy this beautiful Fall Tuesday. 😘😎

Sending cool vibes to you and Jake. 💕😘😎

@sheba2011

Good afternoon to you. Another nice day like Oz.🌞 Hubs is meeting some of the guys from the gym for a bite and beer🍺so I will find something to throw together for me. Mom and sis went to Costco today so sis is stopping tomorrow with a couple things she picked up for me.

Decided to get my Christmas cards done today. Just need to hit the post office for some stamps this week. Maybe one more year and I’m retiring from this seasonal job.😅

Have a great dinner – yum!🥩 Hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good evening and it is beautiful chill evening in OZ. 😎💕The media is still talking about
the Game.

The dinner was great I wish you were here. 😎

Tom Jones Lyrics
“Thunderball”

He always runs while others walk.
He acts while other men just talk.
He looks at this world, and wants it all,
So he strikes, like Thunderball.
He knows the meaning of success.
His needs are more, so he gives less.
They call him the winner who takes all.
And he strikes, like Thunderball.

Any woman he wants, he’ll get.
He will break any heart without regret.
His days of asking are all gone.
His fight goes on and on and on.
But he thinks that the fight is worth it all.
So he strikes like Thunderb

Nancy Sinatra Lyrics
“You Only Live Twice”

You only live twice or so it seems
One life for yourself and one for your dreams
You drift through the years and life seems tame
Till one dream appears and love is it’s name

And love is a stranger who’ll beckon you on
Don’t think of the danger or the stranger is gone

This dream is for you, so pay the price
Make one dream come true, you only live twice

And love is a stranger who’ll beckon you on
Don’t think of the danger or the stranger is gone

This dream is for you, so pay the price
Make one dream come true, you only live twice

Shirley Bassey Lyrics
“Diamonds Are Forever”
(from “Diamonds Are Forever” soundtrack)

Diamonds are forever,
They are all I need to please me,
They can stimulate and tease me,
They won’t leave in the night,
I’ve no fear that they might desert me.

Diamonds are forever,
Hold one up and then caress it,
Touch it, stroke it and undress it,
I can see ev’ry part,
Nothing hides in the heart to hurt me.
I don’t need love,
For what good will love do me?
Diamonds never lie to me,
For when love’s gone,
They’ll lustre on.

Diamonds are forever,
Sparkling round my little finger.
Unlike men, the diamonds linger;
Men are mere mortals who
Are not worth going to your grave for.
I don’t need love,
For what good will love do me?

Diamonds never lie to me,
For when love’s gone,
They’ll lustre on.
Diamonds are forever, forever, forever.
Diamonds are forever, forever, forever.
Forever and ever.

Goldfinger
Song by Shirley Bassey

Goldfinger, he’s the man
The man with the midas touch
A spider’s touch
Such a cold finger
Beckons you to enter his web of sin
But don’t go in
Golden words he will pour in your ear
But his lies can’t disguise what you fear
For a golden girl knows when he’s kissed her
It’s the kiss of death from Mister Goldfinger
Pretty girl, beware of his heart of gold
This heart is cold
Golden words he will pour in your ear
But his lies can’t disguise what you fear
For a golden girl knows when he’s kissed her
It’s the kiss of death from Mister Goldfinger
Pretty girl, beware of his heart of gold
This heart is cold
He loves only gold
Only gold
He loves gold
He loves only gold
Only gold
He loves gold

Sheena Easton Lyrics
“For Your Eyes Only”
(from “For Your Eyes Only” soundtrack)

For your eyes only, can see me through the night
For your eyes only, I never need to hide
You can see so much in me
So much in me that’s new
I never felt, until I looked at you

For your eyes only, only for you
You see what no one else can see
Now I’m breaking free
For your eyes only, only for you
The love I know you need in me
The fantasy you freed in me
Only for you, only for you

For your eyes only, the nights are never cold
You really know me, that’s all I need to know
Maybe I’m an open book
Because I know you’re mine
But you won’t need to read between the lines

For your eyes only, only for you
You see what no one else can see
Now I’m breaking free
For your eyes only, only for you
The passions that collide in me
The wild abandoned side of me
Only for you, for your eyes only

VETERANS DAY

Veterans Day on November 11th honors military veterans who served in the United States Armed Forces. The federal holiday coincides with Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, which marks World War I. These observances reflect the end of significant hostilities at the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 when the Armistice with Germany took effect. Initially, the United States observed Armistice Day as well. However, it evolved into the current Veterans Day in 1954.

Veterans Day is not to be confused with Memorial Day or Armed Forces Day. Veterans Day celebrates all United States military veterans. However, Memorial Day is set aside for remembering the men and women who died while serving. Additionally, Armed Forces Day recognizes the men and women currently serving in the United States military.

NATIONAL SUNDAE DAY

On November 11th, National Sundae Day brings a celebration to ice cream lovers across the country. Enjoy one of every flavor and bring a friend!

Good day in Florida I hope you and your husband are having a nice Veterans Day.
Please thank him for his service I also noticed there are a lot of great deals on

@taci,

Good morning in S. California. 😘😎🎈Taci my friend and I had a great time.
I love how she talks about being from burbs of Washington and attending College
in Philly she will most certainly go back to Greece next Spring. I give her kudos
for planning that as she had major surgery and they would not release her from the
rehab hospital until she could climb six steps she lives alone so we have steps in
our houses so she needed to do that. This lady is very active and she is older than me.

I love your trip I can see it all just by the way you describe it in your posts. 😎🎈
Thank you for sharing and I bet you are planning another one. YAY!

How is your son doing? I have a feeling he is ready to travel again too!

Happy Trails To You. 🎶😎

Sheba, your neighborhood is a lively one which is great. Nice to meet interesting people.
You asked about my son…. well he was in another country for a few days with a friend and they are coming home tonight. I really didn’t want him to go to Mexico but it’s so close and tempting to a lot of people. I have met people who travel there often and even go to the dentist which has been great for them with costs. That said, my view has not changed. He was scared to tell me and my hubs said I took it pretty well. But hey he is an adult and can make his own decisions. He did get to practice speaking Spanish there which is good.
Hope the cats are doing ok. How are your kids doing?

@taci,

Good evening and I hope you and hubby are enjoying this Veterans Day. Taci a lot
of my family were in the Military and are up the way in Leavenworth, Kansas National
Cemetery. I have been on the phone a good part of the day with kids who miss their
Fathers. Very somber day when it is your family.

Oz is alright tonight we will be in the 30’s.

I think your son will do fine in Mexico my niece who lives near you goes every weekend
because she has friends from your area living there due to the fact is is cheaper.
Niece is fluent in Spanish and she walks across the border and her friends pick her up.
Yeah this scares the daylights out of me.

Your son will tell all once he gets home. 💕

Our kids are fine one daughter is currently in Vermont visiting friends and is on a
Mountain Summit. My son is visiting family in Colorado our other two are working
on projects for work these kids travel all over the world. 💕🎈

The cats are all find I have feed them they are spoiled they will not eat just any cat food.
Why did I have to get the best for them and now they know the difference. I never know
when I will see them again so I always make sure at least they are not hungry.

I walk about a mile with Poppy in the Moonlight and that means it comes out around 6:00
here and it is large and bright. I can breath and think. 💕Poppy and I have been doing
this for well over a decade and my husband joins us sometimes.

@shoelady60,

Good day in the ‘burgh. 😎🎈I want to wish you a nice Veteran’s Day. 🎈😎
Lady congrats on your team winning yesterday as well. I was so wrapped up
in our team I almost missed it. Seeing Patrick at the end of the game was pure joy. 🎈

Lady my brother told me through the grapevine that some of the players wanted to
hurt his ankle. I am like if they try that it is against the rules. A big no no to hurt someone
just because. I will leave it at that.

Oz is sunny and in the 60’s and I am loving it. 😎🎈 I made a pasta dish yesterday too.
I always make a veggie dish. 💕😎

Sending sunny vibes to you and Jake. 😘🎈💕😎Thank you for all your support. I did
post some pics of TS last night. 💕😎

@sheba2011

Well, well, well, guess what didn’t happen – Mahomes getting hurt. Some people will do anything for a win, shame on them.😖 Usually when hockey players get hurt, they only say it is an upper or lower body injury, I guess so players can’t target an ankle, knee, etc. KC prevailed the nasties! I did see the Taylor pics – lovely and certainly not the normal football attire. I saw a video of her walking in and the bodyguards making the photographers stand up so they couldn’t shoot under her skirt, wow.😲

Exact same day here, cool and sunny.🌞 We got some much needed rain yesterday. Looks like a nice week ahead.

Hubs trying to figure out where he wants to go eat since he’s a vet so no cooking for me today. So many places offering free meals, very nice. Enjoy your day and evening, sending back sunny vibes to you and Poppy.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good evening I hope you and hubby went to a nice place to eat. I want to thank him
for his service. 🎈😎

Glad the Game is over and on we go to another one. I am going to keep quiet as I don’t
want to jinx anything. I thought what my brother shared with me was not cool not his
thoughts but what other’s are saying.

I am about to do a Perlier Facial and a Perlier Shower. 😘🎈😎

Sweet Dreams my friend. 😘💕

@kittengirl,

Good morning in California Kitten and may this Monday be a good one for you. 😎💕

Pure Joy. 😎🎈

Teardrops On My Guitar
Song by Taylor Swift

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won’t see
That I want and I’m needing everything that we should be
I’ll bet she’s beautiful, that girl he talks about
And she’s got everything that I have to live without
Drew talks to me, I laugh ’cause it’s just so funny
But I can’t even see anyone when he’s with me
He says he’s so in love, he’s finally got it right
I wonder if he knows he’s all I think about at night
He’s the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He’s the song in the car I keep singing, don’t know why I do
Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can’t breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She’d better hold him tight, give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she’s lucky ’cause
He’s the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He’s the song in the car I keep singing, don’t know why I do
So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light
I’ll put his picture down and maybe get some sleep tonight
‘Cause he’s the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who’s got enough of me to break my heart
He’s the song in the car I keep singing, don’t know why I do
He’s the time taken up, but there’s never enough
And he’s all that I need to fall into
Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won’t see

Back to December
Song by Taylor Swift

I’m so glad you made time to see me
How’s life? Tell me, how’s your family?
I haven’t seen them in a while
You’ve been good, busier than ever
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why
Because the last time you saw me
Is still burned in the back of your mind
You gave me roses and I left them there to die
So this is me swallowin’ my pride
Standin’ in front of you sayin’ I’m sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain’t nothin’ but missin’ you
Wishin’ I’d realized what I had when you were mine
I’d go back to December, turn around and make it alright
I go back to December all the time
These days, I haven’t been sleepin’
Stayin’ up playin’ back myself leavin’
When your birthday passed and I didn’t call
Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughin’ from the passenger’s side
And realized I loved you in the fall
And then the cold came, the dark days
When fear crept into my mind
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye
So this is me swallowin’ my pride
Standin’ in front of you sayin’ I’m sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain’t nothin’ but missin’ you
Wishin’ I’d realized what I had when you were mine
I’d go back to December, turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time
I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile
So good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night
The first time you ever saw me cry
Maybe this is wishful thinkin’
Probably mindless dreamin’
But if we loved again, I swear I’d love you right
I’d go back in time and change it, but I can’t
So if the chain is on your door, I understand
But this is me swallowin’ my pride
Standin’ in front of you sayin’ I’m sorry for that night
And I go back to December
It turns out freedom ain’t nothin’ but missin’ you
Wishin’ I’d realized what I had when you were mine
I’d go back to December, turn around and make it alright
I’d go back to December, turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time
All the time

Taylor Swift arriving to the KC Chiefs and Broncos Game.

Looking good Tay. 😎🎈

NATIONAL FORGET-ME-NOT DAY

National Forget-Me-Not Day on November 10th reminds Americans of the sacrifices returning soldiers have made of body, blood, and limb. Created in 1921, the day reminds Americans that National Forget-Me-Not Day originally raised funds for services for returning injured soldiers. At the time, the existing hospitals were insufficient to support the numbers of returning disabled veterans.

NATIONAL CIVIC PRIDE DAY | November 10

On November 10 we celebrate National Civic Pride Day and inspire everyone to promote the dynamic communities they live in.

UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS BIRTHDAY

On November 10th, The United States Marine Corps Birthday commemorates the establishment of the Continental Marines.

The United States Marine Corps, a branch of the United States Armed Forces, is responsible for providing power protection from the sea. They use the mobility of the United States Navy to deliver combined-arms task forces rapidly. The Continental Congress first established the Continental Marines on November 10, 1775, leading up to the American Revolution. Two battalions of Marines fought for independence both on land and at sea.

The Corps was abolished at the end of the Revolutionary War. However, on July 11, 1798, Congress ordered the creation of the Corps. Congress named it the United States Marine Corps (USMC) and directed that it be available for service under the Secretary of the Navy.

NATIONAL VANILLA CUPCAKE DAY

Cupcake lovers celebrate each year on National Vanilla Cupcake Day. These small cakes get their day on November 10th. Indulge in one or several.

Cupcakes have also been known as:

Fairy Cakes
Patty Cakes
Cup Cakes (different from Cupcakes (one-word)
Cupcakes can be traced back to 1796 when a recipe notation for a cake to be baked in small cups was written in American Cookery (by Amelia Simmons). The earliest known documentation of the term cupcake was in 1828 in Seventy-five Receipts for Pastry, Cakes, and Sweetmeats in Eliza Leslie’s Receipts cookbook.

Cupcakes were originally baked in heavy pottery cups. Today, some bakers still use individual ramekins, small coffee mugs, larger teacups, or other small ovenproof pottery-type dishes for baking their cupcakes.

Today, cupcakes are an art form. Bakers create elaborate decorations and displays utilizing a variety of ingredients. Whether they’re the centerpiece of a wedding, birthday, or anniversary cupcakes satisfy everyone’s sweet tooth. Colorful and fun, these single-serving delights offer a pleasing option when planning any celebration.

In Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

by John McCrae

@loaf,

Good day in Ohio wishing you and the kidz a great Fall Sunday. 😎💕

@xango,

Good day in sunny Florida and I hope you and hubby are having a nice Sunday. 😎💕
Xango I am really impress with all my Perlier purchases I love everything. I can feel
the difference in my skin already. 💕

Happy Shopping. 🎈

@sheba2011 🍁🍂

Good evening Sheba 🍂🍂🍂🍂
Wishing you and your husband a happy and safe Veterans day.

Tomorrow we are expecting the arrival of a new stove. The one we have, has given us to many problems. Appliances dont last long anymore the way they used to. We will try this one and see. At least it’s a sale and not full price.

I am a bit sadden, I worked hard along with many. However the outcome didn’t turn out a positive the way it was expected. It was a real let down.

I am enjoying the Perlier Shower Cream Imperial Honey. I found a new fragrance I like. I also like the Double Latte. I purchased 4 different fragrances and all three liters. Hopefully they will last one year, I used up two of the three liters in one year. I thought one bottle is supposed to last one year, oh well.

I would love a ride on that beautiful train. And that laundry room is fabulous.

Enjoy your day tomorrow and take care. 🍁🍁🍂🍂

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Oodie I did read your post from late last night.
You have a lot going on I have to say the food sounds delicious. 😘💕🎈

Take your time today and soon everything will work out. I think re-doing the bathroom
and parts of your home for your husband’s return is a great idea. I can’t wait until he
comes through the door.

I miss hearing stories about your homes in New England especially Cape Cod. 💕🎈
One of our daughters is in Vermont this weekend having fun.

@sheba2011

Oops……I replied to you under last night’s post.

@oodiebom,

No worries I posted at both posts. I knew you were tired. Hey get some much needed
rest.

I am doing this twice just want to wish you a goodnight. 😘💕😎

@sheba2011

How can I resist. A rainbow.!!!!! Wow

@taci,

Good afternoon in S California and I pray all is well in your area. 🎈💕😎

Enjoy this Sunday and have a good time. Hubby and I are doing this and that that means
little projects here and there. 💕😎

Here is to happy trails. 😘🎈💕😎

Sheba, It’s been a busy weekend. I know for you as well.
You asked about the music on our travels. Other than the 2 plays we saw, we were pretty busy running around site-seeing. We went to fabulous Museums, Palaces, Churches, Synagogues, and historical places. How was your visit with your Professor friend? Is she planning another trip to Greece and has she recovered from her accident? I sure hope so.
Tonight I cooked a pumpkin left over from Halloween. Never tried it before and it was pretty easy. Tomorrow, if I have time, I might try to make soup from it. Maybe not? We will see as I am already tired of it 🙂
Yes, sadly I am aware of the fires.
Have a good evening!

@shoelady60,

Good afternoon in the beautiful ‘burgh. 😎💕🎈Game Day and I am not looking.
Hubby is watching downstairs in the living room I am in my dressing room it is too
intense because the family in Colorado are exciting they want to kick our arse. LOL! 😎

I think everyone we beat wants that. Oh well. Hey one of my brothers told me something
and I will not talk about it until later. This bro loves the raiders. 😎

Beautiful Sunday here in OZ just a great Fall Sunday.

This is what my veggie tray looks like.

Sending cool vibes to you and Jake. 😎💕😘

@sheba2011

OMG, just saw the final score. Maybe it was good I couldn’t see the game.👍👍👍👍👍

I did see a picture of Tay and she looked so classy.👄💄 Girl knows how to dress.

Throwing some spaghetti together for dinner – Chief colors, lol!🍝 Congrats again and winning hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good evening on my what a Game. 😎I love Patrick he reaction was just so special.
Tay slayed in her outfit I hope I run into them some day just minding my own business.
Taylor’s Mom is with her and they are on Kansas Soil. 💕😎

If I ever get the chance to take a pic with her and Travis I will post it. 😎

Thank you for the shout out. I came in during the fourth quarter with hubby and I was
a wreck. I think the last 30 seconds sealed the deal. I had one brother call to say congrats.
The rest dead silence payback is coming.

I will tell you something in the post tomorrow.

Sweet Dreams Taylor has excellent taste. 💕

@kittengirl,

Good day in California Kitten make it a great Fall Sunday. 💕😎🎈

We Are the Champions
Song by Queen

I’ve paid my dues
Time after time
I’ve done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I’ve made a few
I’ve had my share of sand
Kicked in my face
But I’ve come through
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World
I’ve taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
And everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it’s been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before
the human race
And I ain’t gonna lose
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World
We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World

Killer Queen
Song by Queen

She keeps her Moët et Chandon
In her pretty cabinet
“Let them eat cake, ” she says
Just like Marie Antoinette
A built-in remedy
For Khrushchev and Kennedy
At anytime an invitation
You can’t decline
Caviar and cigarettes
Well versed in etiquette
Extraordinarily nice
She’s a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation
She spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China
Went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally
If you’re that way inclined
Perfume came naturally from Paris (naturally)
For cars she couldn’t care less
Fastidious and precise
She’s a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
Drop of a hat she’s as willing as
Playful as a cat
Then momentarily out of action
Temporarily out of gas
To absolutely drive you wild, wild
She’s out to get you
She’s a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
You wanna try

We Will Rock You
Song by Queen

Buddy, you’re a boy, make a big noise
Playing in the street, gonna be a big man someday
You got mud on your face, you big disgrace
Kicking your can all over the place, singin’
We will, we will rock you
We will, we will rock you
Buddy, you’re a young man, hard man
Shouting in the street, gonna take on the world someday
You got blood on your face, you big disgrace
Waving your banner all over the place
We will, we will rock you, sing it
We will, we will rock you
Buddy, you’re an old man, poor man
Pleading with your eyes, gonna make you some peace someday
You got mud on your face, big disgrace
Somebody better put you back into your place
We will, we will rock you, sing it
We will, we will rock you, everybody
We will, we will rock you, hmm
We will, we will rock you
Alright

Under Pressure
Song by David Bowie and Queen

Mm-noom-ba-deh
Doom-boom-ba-beh
Doo-boo-boom-ba-beh-beh
Pressure pushin’ down on me
Pressin’ down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure that brings a building down
Splits a family in two, puts people on streets
Mm-ba-ba-beh, mm-ba-ba-beh
Dee-day-da, ee-day-da
That’s okay
That’s the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watchin’ some good friends screamin’, “Let me out”
Pray tomorrow gets me higher
Pressure on people, people on streets
Da-da-da, mm-mm
Da-da-da-ba-bum
Okay
Chippin’ around, kick my brains ’round the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours
Ee-doh-ba-buh, ee-da-ba-ba-bop
Mm-bo-bop, beh-lup
People on streets, ee-da-dee-da-day
People on streets, ee-da-dee-da-dee-da-dee-da
It’s the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming, “Let me out”
Pray tomorrow gets me higher, higher, high
Pressure on people, people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on the fence but it don’t work
Keep comin’ up with love but it’s so slashed and torn
Why, why, why?
Love
Insanity laughs under pressure we’re breaking
Can’t we give ourselves one more chance?
Why can’t we give love that one more chance?
Why can’t we give love, give love, give love, give love
Give love, give love, give love, give love?
‘Cause love’s such an old-fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure

Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Song by Queen

This thing called love
I just can’t handle it
This thing called love
I must get ’round to it
I ain’t ready
Crazy little thing called love
This thing (this thing) called love (called love)
It cries (like a baby), in a cradle all night
It swings (woo), it jives (woo)
Shakes all over like a jellyfish
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love
There goes my baby
She knows how to rock and roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
She leaves me in a cool, cool sweat
I gotta be cool, relax
Get hip and get on my tracks
Take a back seat, hitchhike
And take a long ride on my motorbike
Until I’m ready
Crazy little thing called love
Yeah
I gotta be cool, relax
Get hip and get on my tracks
Take a back seat, hitchhike
And take a long ride on my motorbike
Until I’m ready (ready Freddie)
Crazy little thing called love
This thing called love
I just can’t handle it
This thing called love
I must get ’round to it
I ain’t ready
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love (yeah, yeah)
Crazy little thing called love (yeah, yeah)
Crazy little thing called love (yeah, yeah)
Crazy little thing called love (yeah, yeah)
Crazy little thing called love (yeah, yeah)
Crazy little thing called love (yeah, yeah)

Queen Lyrics
“Radio Ga Ga”

Radio

Radio

I’d sit alone and watch your light
My only friend through teenage nights
And everything I had to know
I heard it on my radio

You gave them all those old-time stars
Through wars of worlds invaded by Mars
You made ’em laugh, you made ’em cry
You made us feel like we could fly

Radio

So, don’t become some background noise
A backdrop for the girls and boys
Who just don’t know or just don’t care
And just complain when you’re not there

You had your time, you had the power
You’ve yet to have your finest hour
Radio, radio

All we hear is “Radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga”
All we hear is “Radio ga ga
“Radio blah blah”
Radio, what’s new?
Radio, someone still loves you

We watch the shows, we watch the stars
On videos for hours and hours
We hardly need to use our ears
How music changes through the years

Let’s hope you never leave, old friend
Like all good things on you we depend
So, stick around ’cause we might miss you
When we grow tired of all this visual

You had your time, you had the power
You’ve yet to have your finest hour
Radio, radio

All we hear is “Radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga”
All we hear is “Radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga”

All we hear is “Radio ga ga
Radio blah blah”
Radio, what’s new?
Someone still loves you

(Radio ga ga, radio ga ga)
(Radio ga ga, radio ga ga)
(Radio ga ga, radio ga ga)

You had your time, you had the power
You’ve yet to have your finest hour
Radio, radio

Another One Bites the Dust
Song by Queen

Let’s go!
Steve walks warily down the street
With the brim pulled way down low
Ain’t no sound but the sound of his feet
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready? Hey
Are you ready for this?
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat?
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat, yeah
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust (yeah)
Hey, I’m gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
How do you think I’m going to get along
Without you, when you’re gone?
You took me for everything that I had
And kicked me out on my own
Are you happy, are you satisfied?
How long can you stand the heat?
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat, look out
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I’m gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
Hey!
Oh, take it
Bite the dust
Bite the dust, hey
Hey
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust, ow!
Another one bites the dust, hey, hey
Another one bites the dust, hey
Ooh, shout!
There are plenty of ways that you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him, you can cheat him, you can treat him bad
And leave him when he’s down, yeah
But I’m ready, yes I’m ready for you
I’m standing on my own two feet
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
Repeating to the sound of the beat, oh yeah
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust, yeah
Hey, I’m gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust

NATIONAL SCRAPPLE DAY

National Scrapple Day on November 9th recognizes the first pork food invented in America. For those not familiar with scrapple, it is traditionally a mush of pork scraps and trimmings combined with cornmeal, wheat flour, and spices, such as sage, thyme, savory and black pepper. The mush is then formed into a semi-solid loaf, sliced and pan-fried.

MICROTIA AWARENESS DAY

Microtia Awareness Day dedicates November 9th to spreading hope and knowledge concerning a congenital disability, which derives its name from the Latin terms for little ears. Mark the calendar and think of the number 9 as the shape of an ear.

NATIONAL LOUISIANA DAY

On November 9, National Louisiana Day recognizes the state that brought us such treasures as Jazz, Creole and American Mardi Gras.

Throughout the history of the state, the blending of race and culture have resulted in the Delta’s own unique flair that brings visitors from around the world seeking to taste their food, hear their music and see their style.

When French explorers first arrived, several diverse tribes populated the area. Many of their population were decimated by disease and war. Natchez, Choctaw or Chitimacha descendants still survive today.

In 1803, Louisiana became territory when the United States completed negotiations with France for the 828,000 mile Louisiana Purchase. The first of 15 states to be carved out of the region, Louisianna entered the United States in 1812.

Within its mysterious gulf, Louisiana holds the secrets of pirates, conflicts of slavery and the paths of progress. The bayou teems with life and stories untold.

Louisiana epitomizes the phrase “melting pot” probably more than any other state. Throughout the history of the state, Native American, French, Spanish, German, African, Irish and Caribean cultures have blended in a variety of ways creating a diverse and distinct culture in the bayou. From the food to the language, the music and history, Cajun (French Canadian or Acadian), Creole (European, African, Caribbean or Spanish mixed ancestry) and even the landscape impact the enchantment that is Louisiana.

@loaf,

Enjoy this beautiful Fall Saturday. 🎈😎

@xango,

Good day in Florida. I hope it is cooler for you today. OZ is raining and cloudy it seems
like it is still late evening. 😎🎈No worries I just put a coat and a knit hat on to keep warm.
It’s not too bad.

I love all the Perlier I brought from HSN. Enjoy the fun scents of the bodywash. 💕

Hubby will do leaves patrol later today. 💕🎈😎

@oodiebom,

Good afternoon on the Gulf Coast of Florida. How are things going for you today?
I am going to run some errands OZ is a bit chilly but alright. I wore my Iris Apfel
swing coat. 💕😎

Oodie take time and enjoy some tea with your Manuka Honey. 💕😎

Let me know how things are going for you today as I know you have a lot going on.

@sheba2011

We haven’t had rain since the last hurricane which is about a month ago. So today I took the sprinkler and watered the front including the new plants. Tomorrow I will be doing the side of our home where our croton is along with the hibiscus. Our neighbor across the street returned last Sunday from Indiana. We got together this afternoon and she mentioned that this will be their last time here. They flew and their van was transported from Indiana to Florida. It took 3 days. They could only pack clothing in the van. I mentioned Amtrak and they will look into this and will give it a try if not too expensive. I also mentioned that they could pack the car. No limit on what they can bring.

I did end up at the Farmer’s Market. I just purchased takeout for dinner. They make great sandwiched, but today I decided to try a healthy meal which was salisbury steak made into meatballs with mashed potato and broccoli. It was very tasty and turned out to be too much food. I also picked up homemade potato soup and clam chowder along with tuna fish salad on a croissant. For dessert, brought hubby a fresh fruit cup.

Hubby is doing OK. I am now working on finding a contractor to redo a bathroom, paint the interior and to install new flooring. I have an appointment for tires at Costco on Monday and will try to check out some flooring that was in their ad..I will ask for one box so that we can determine if it’s a go or not. The lateness of the day is upon me. I need t o get some sleep. Another work day coming up, though it won’t be an all day thing. Goodnight. Sweet dreams to the 3 Musketeers.

@Oodieom,

I was in a deep sleep when you posted this I had the best sleep ever. 😎😘💕

I have been working on small projects around the house and helping hubby with
the leaves I like moving every part of my body. I like to stay fit. Hubby has a beautiful
body think Paul Newman hubby is tall and slim. Thing is he is a workaholic he cannot
sit still he has to be doing something. I always keep a Honey Do List handy. 💕😎

Enjoy your day Oodie I am so glad you posted. 🎈The food sounds fantastic and Oodie
you are very good with food. 💕

@sheba2011

Don’t laugh. I fell sound asleep at the computer while typing the above. Went to bed after posting.

I did see hubby last night. He loved the potato soup while I devoured the clam chowder. I really miss the Rhode Island chowder. My favorite, all time, is the clear soup which no other State makes. Well, at least to my knowledge. There is also the Rhode Island red which is just as good. But, I wish more chefs would follow up on making the three alternatives. Our home in Ct. borders Rhode Island and also Massachusetts. We have the best of all worlds when shopping for food. Our favorite market in those areas are Market Basket. While I’ve been in Florida, they opened two markets in Rhode Island. One took over the Sam’s Club which is close to my shopping area. The other is in Ma., about 50 miles North of our home in Ct.. Like the Farmer’s Market here, Market Basket makes their own takeout of hot and cold things. There is an area in the store that I gravitate to where all the hot food is kept. If you are there in the wee hours of the morning they serve breakfast with hot coffee or tea. The hot beverages you can get all day long, and yes, even sodas, milk shakes, ice cream sodas, etc.. Just like the market here, their customer service is impeccable. However, I may get sticker shock when we return.

This last storm did havoc to many residents here. My neighbor on the other side of me lost an entire room. The roofer I used is not a contractor for doing structural work. Our HOA President has been working diligently in securing contractors with licenses so hopefully she will have someone to do the work at a reasonable price. Though I did lose the complete lanai, our roofer was able to put it together, though he mentioned through email that he would like to take the whole thing apart and make it stronger. I like the idea, but waiting on price.

Right now I am looking at auto insurance. The one I have now ends this month. I was actually surprised while looking six months ago that the insurance lasts only six months. Maybe flabbergasted is the word I should be using. Up until last year our auto insurance lasted a full year. I surmise times have changed or maybe it’s where we are today, Florida. Anyway, I found another company giving us the same as the one I have now at a great savings. Hubby is absolutely thrilled.

Have a great walk with Poppy in the moonlight. Enjoy the Perlier. I bet your bath area smells delicious. I used to love going into my grandma’s bathroom after her shower. The smells were like fresh cut flowers. I could stand there for hours on end just to take in the indulgence. Someday, hopefully, you will have grandkids that will enjoy your room and stand in one place for hours on end.

@oodiebom,

Good evening I would never laugh at anyone who falls asleep. I had a couple of nights
when I could not sleep like I normally do. No worries I am back to normal. 💕

Oodie you are doing the planning, work and and everything in between that may take four people to do.
I think you are tops at everything you do. 😎🎈

Oodie the moon is a half moon tonight and it is beautiful. The cats all came to eat as
with the time change they change too they come early. 💕

I love you and hubby having meals together so sweet. Clam Chowder why do I keep of
New England?

Sweet Dreams my friend. 😘😎💕

@taci,

Good morning in S. California. 🎈😎💕Taci looking at the news media they are showing
some fires in S. California and I mean it looks devastating. I see people saying they have
lost everything in the fires. Are you near any of this?

All the natural disasters are getting to be insane.

I hope it does not come your way.

I am going to wish you Happy Trails just make sure you stay safe. 😎🎈💕

Oz is a wee bit chilly but alright.

@shoelady60,

Good afternoon in the ‘burgh. Oz is a bit chilly but alright. 💕🎈😎

I just want to say congrats on your Hockey Team winning last night. 😎🎈💕
Well done!

I have a this and that errand day. Hubby went to grab a Pizza and I said go for it.

The leaves are all wet and so he is waiting to see if the sun comes out and looks like
it will not.

Lady tomorrow is Game Day between the Chiefs and Colorado. I have hundreds of
relatives in Colorado and it will be a tense day just between family. 😘💕

Enjoy the visit from your sister and just chill.

Sending warm vibes to you and Jake. 😘😎

@sheba2011

Another nice, cool sunny day.🌞 Stayed home all day and did small chores when I wanted and relaxed when I wanted.😊 Takeout for dinner since hubs was out and about.

I am bummed that I won’t get to see the Chiefs tomorrow since they play the same time as the Steelers and the network does not show any other games opposite them.☹ So good luck, I will be checking the score. Thanks for the shout-out, hope they can win at least two in a row!

Time for dinner – stay warm and winning hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖🍸

@shoelady60,

Good evening OZ has a nice chill. I will keep you posted on the Game.
One of my brothers who loves the Raiders said his boys are out so he will wear
their colors all over Colorado. LOL! 😎💕

Just a friendly family thing and may the best team win.

Enjoy and sweet dreams. 😎💕

@kittengirl,

Good morning in S. California and may this day find you doing well. 😎😘

NATIONAL PARENTS AS TEACHERS DAY

NATIONAL S.T.E.M./S.T.E.A.M. DAY

NATIONAL CAPPUCCINO DAY

National Cappuccino Day on November 8th whips up a frothy, hot cup of cappuccino. It’s a perfect drink on a frosty morning, meeting with friends or just to enjoy a creamy cuppa.

Traditionally prepared with espresso, hot milk, and steamed milk foam, a cappuccino is an Italian coffee drink.

The word cappuccino comes from the Capuchin friars and is the diminutive form of cappuccio in Italian, meaning hood or something that covers the head. This popular coffee beverage got its name not from the hood on their habits but from the color of the hooded robes that the friars wore. (The Capuchin friars is an Order of friars in the Catholic Church, among the chief offshoots of the Franciscans.)

In 1945, Achille Gaggia invented the modern espresso machine which further popularized the cappuccino.
Mid-1990s – Cappuccino was made more widely available to North Americans as upscale coffee houses sprang up.
Late 1990s to Early 2000s – Cappuccinos became popular in the United States concurrent with the boom in the American coffee industry.
The start of the 21st Century – A modified short-cut version of the cappuccino started being served at fast-food chains.
While steaming the milk you must pay close attention to attain the correct ratio of foam, thus making the cappuccino one of the most difficult espresso-based beverages to make properly.
A skilled barista may create artistic shapes while he/she is pouring milk on top of the espresso coffee.

NATIONAL HARVEY WALLBANGER DAY

National Harvey Wallbanger Day on November 8th recognizes a fruity and spirited cocktail made with 3 parts vodka, 1 part Galliano and 6 parts orange juice. Pour it into a highball glass and garnish it with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry.

@loaf,

Good morning in Ohio Loaf all my family in Colorado are digging out from SNOW! 😎💕🎈

@xango,

Good day in Florida and may it be a cool one for. Hey enjoy your Christmas shopping
tis the season. 🎈😎

My family are dealing with a lot of snow in Colorado. We here in OZ are doing alright
it is in the 50’s and I am fine with that. 😘🎈😎

@sheba2011

Hello Sheba 🌹 How are you?
Would you believe we are at 87 degree with a 53% humidity. I like a warm Autumn and Winter but not hot.
I too took advantage of the three little Perlier Shower and Bath Cream low price. Last year I got the Lavender and the Agrumarium, and both is almost gone. This time I got Double Latte, Imperial Honey, White Almond and Honey (original). I never tried the Imperial Honey before, and the fragrance is wonderful. Funny thing is, three came via UPS and the Honey came through the Postal Service.

The carpet in the family room is vacuumed and steamed cleaned. I dusted everything and then I decorated for Christmas🎄.
This weekend with all the promotions and sales all over the place. We are going to take a look at some appliances. Monday is Veterans Day, and hubby is off. If I can find what I want, we may get something for the kitchen and something for the TV room.

Here’s wishing you a great weekend and Veterans Day.
Take care Sheba 🍁🍁🍁🍂🍂🍂

@xango,

Good evening I hope you and hubby have a nice long weekend. Hubby and I are having
one and funny I am doing some major shopping for something I am looking for.

Xango I got eleven items from the Perlier Sale and Free Shipping. I have been wanting
to try some things and this was the time to do it. I am a Korres Girls and my bath is stock
full of the Korres. I do have the Perlier in Imperial Honey in the large size and it is divine. 😎
I watch for specials and free shipping that means I can buy more and I check for the
expiration dates. Skinn is what I use on my face and Prai is what I use on my neck
décolletage area. So my bathroom is like a skin boutique. 😎💕

I do buy things for my three daughters when it is a great deal. The girls like to buy their
own so if they see my skin they know mom being a former model don’t play around. 😎
I do drink plenty of water and get a good amount of workout.

Have fun shopping with hubby. Happy Holidays to you both.

Xango this is a box set of the Imperial Honey. 😎💕

Enjoy your evening.

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 😎🎈I know you are super busy I hope all is
going well for you.

I hope your labs all went well.

Enjoy the visit with your husband and I can’t wait until all is done to get him home. 😎

The pic above reminds me of New England. 💕My family in Colorado are knee deep in snow. LOL!

Oodie, thinking of you and hope you can get some rest soon. Good to hear your hubs is going to be home soon.

@taci,

Good Morning in S. California and I hope you had a good time with your friends. 😎🎈
I am a happy camper as I got a nice load of Perlier from HSN. I ordered some things
I really needed so now I am working on my bathroom in my bedroom. I love it. 💕

Hey Happy Trails To You. 🎶🎶🎈

Sheba, Glad your Perlier order arrived. Snow in CO already; time is flying by. My lunch was interesting and lasted about 3 hours plus 45 minutes in transit time total. We discussed the election results. I was tired when I got home and went to bed early. I’m an introvert so all this chatting gets overwhelming. I love it but i get tired. Today I took a down day to organize a bit.
How did your bathroom turnout? I know your house is beautiful.
We really miss the quality coffee from our travels. We decided to get a new coffee maker this year.

Have a good evening!

@taci,

Good evening what a day. 💕😎🎈My friend the professor and I are spending some time
together but all that jazz is not what we talk about. I have done that in the past with other
friends.

Taci good coffee is a must and I am so glad you are getting a new coffee maker. I did not
start to drink coffee on the regular until ten years ago. Hubby loves it and we have a great
Coffee Maker. I love the smell of coffee on a cold and chilly day. 😎💕🎈

My family are up to their elbows in snow I would rather do leaves then shovel snow.

Enjoy your evening.

Taci I love hearing about trip how was the music? There is always something new to
discover when you travel. 💕😎

@shoelady60,

Good day in the ‘burgh. 😎💕🎈Lady may this day find you doing well.
This is a beautiful Fall Friday in OZ.

My family are calling me all morning about the snow in Colorado. We do not have it yet
but it will come sometimes next month. The weather is so iffy. LOL!

I am doing my ensuite bathroom. This means the words en suite come from French and mean “in sequence” or “in harmony.” This is my happy place to shower and do facials etc. 💕😎

Nice day to chill and relax with your favorite drink. 😘

Sending cool vibes to you and Jake. Lady again thank you for being here. 😘🎈

@sheba2011

No snow YET, another nice day, cool with sunshine.🌞 Went for my test this morning and it was fine. Hopefully won’t need another one for a year.🤞 Then I went grocery shopping, another favorite. Bought some crab cakes so that’s dinner.

As you probably figured, I lasted one period last night, terrible!😫 Lots of problems. Tonight’s game may require a stiff drink!🍷 Not much planned for the weekend which is fine. I’ll just do a little of this and that. I think sis is stopping on Sunday for a couple hours.

Hope the snow stays in CO. Poppy is not ready for his boots yet.🐾 Hugs to both.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good evening as far as snow goes that makes two of us. 😎 The good about it is my family
is used to it. 💕

I hope you Hockey Team can pull off another win go for it.

Glad you had a good medical visit. Enjoy this evening. OZ is very cool.

Lady your Crab Cakes sound so good. Enjoy it all. 😘😎

A little wine is right on time. Sweet Dreams. 💕😘

@kittengirl,

Good morning in California Kitten may this Fall Friday be a good one for you. 😘🎈😎
