Good Afternoon, Flowers! It's cloudy, "feels" like 14 with the wind, and gloomy in my neighborhood today. Yesterday was a beautiful "no jacket" day in Sioux City. I made a grocery run this morning. The store had 17 cents off a gallon of gas, up to 20 gallons, for just bringing in a store coupon. Along with the rest of the stuff I bought Bob will get 32 cents off the next time he fills his pickup. We have 30 days to use it or lose it. I picked up the gift shop money this morning as I had bills to pay and didn't want to make two trips there on Monday. Washer and dryer are both humming along.

Maggie -- I tried to pick Sonny up this morning and he was having no part of that! I hope he will come around. He is acting kind of silly as he will plop down in front of me, belly up, for a scratch session. He still runs whenever Bob comes near though. The "porker" gained over 4#s since I had him in before Christmas. He's now on a diet!

Susan -- You mentioned steel cut oats; Bob brought home a crock pot recipe that has dried cherries in it. He said it was good. I left the cat carrier sitting out for weeks thinking Sonny might take a look inside. Nope, but Ernie would go in and Sonny would just cock his head as if thinking "you are really dumb to do that!" I know you will do well in the COPD diet trial and the $1500 will be a nice bonus along with your better health.

"Gma" -- You have a much better attitude about your doctor's appointment than I would have. I would rather go to the dentist any day! I hope the tests come back ok, and you don't have to have to have anything else done. Beth and I had a grand time shopping. She helped me pick out Easter shorts and shirts for the kids as well as birthday shorts and shirts for Kolby and Zowie. We met Will and the kids at Texas Roadhouse for supper. I was stupid and ate a few peanuts first so wasn't really hungry when the food finally came. My idea of crispy chicken and their idea of crispy chicken is totally different.

I need to clean the bathrooms, dust, and vacuum fur bunnies. Since Sonny's fur is so light it really shows around the edges and bottom of my darker furniture. Enjoy the rest of your day!

Good Afternoon, Flowers! The wind is blowing, the sun is shining, and it's 32 degrees. We haven't seen the robins since last Saturday; I'm wondering if they went back south to warmer weather. I went to early church, Bob was singing so he went even earlier, and have been cleaning or fixing food for card club since getting home. Everything I've done has led to another something to do. I'm glad I only do this once a year!

It took forever to get in here today and then it wouldn't let me post a new thread.

I need to keep moving or will lose my motivation to do so. Enjoy the rest of your day!
