Good morning...it is FRIDAY!!!!
One of our local news station (Fox) has one of their co anchor from their 4 hour morning show, out at Dallas/Fort Worth today, thru the weekend, she just got fitted for a cowboy hat. Lol, she looked really good, wish I could wear one, but no matter what the hat is, I do not look good in a hat.
Phyl, I had to chuckle about the klutz disease...since for years I have been one. Then with the chemo, my balance got worse, so now I am a super klutz! Our driveway was an ice rink too. We got 2 bags (60#) of salt. DH had to get a different kind of salt, since the regular kind was sold out. As soon as we got home he threw the salt out onto the driveway, and now us old people are able to walk on it. We did alot of running yesterday, and everywhere we went, was ice. We are supposed to have thawing next week, can't wait!
Marlene, oh boy, I would be so frustrated too, about the computer. Isn't it nice to be able to make that payment? Makes it feel like summer is getting closer!
Gail, we did get colder weather overnight. Here right now the temp is -4* I guess down in the mid section of the country there will be a major Ice storm this weekend. We all must pray for all of them. Ice storms are the worst!
Today is Y day...need to restock the wine rack, never got around to that the other day, so today it is a must! I think sloppy joes (made with venison) will be dinner tonight.
Have a great Friday!

Dumb dumb me. Just lost another post typing on the thread. Then for some reason it locked up on me here & I had to start over. It is not my day.... I forgot, it is Friday the 13th!
It was a busy morning. I hope we have made our last shopping trip to HD for BR items. We got paint, the vanity hardware & towel bars etc today. Then we made a stop at WM, naturally. I was surprised to see so much on clearance – mostly winter things. DH got a shirt he had been watching to go on sale & I got a light weight jacket. I always wear long sleeves & can even in the summer sometimes.
Today is DH's b-day. Now I have to respect my elder again till Aug! Tonight the family is getting together for pizza, cake & ice cream. Youngest DS leaves very early in the morning for CA so won't be with us. There is a 10 man crew from AT&T going out to assist where the flooding is so bad. He said they were told to plan on being there up to 10 weeks. Tonight is one of those confusing family messes I touched on earlier this week. DD started planning for it & guess who ended up with it? Yup, me but we are going to her house. How do I get in these messes?
Nothing exciting happening here. Enjoy the rest of your day.

hi, finally getting on the threads. this am mary jo and joyce came over. we worked on stupid not so good directions quilt block. it's varation of match sticks. have no idea where the gal in charge came up with this idea. may jo when she did hers a few days ago talked to a very experience quilter. she hated this block and directions also. not sure why we even said we would do it. we don't like this little young ----gal.
our driveway seems to be even more ice today. I was praying joyce and mary jo would not fall on it. joyce is a known fact as we age we lose our blalacne.
does your y have chair yoga? try it. delona has been going longer the I have to it. she says it has really helped her and her balance. least with chair yoga you don't have t o get up off the floor.
happy birthday don. enjoy your evening. marlene least it is not wear and tear on your house tonight. enjoy the party. phyl

Marlene, Happy Birthday to your DH!!! Thanks Phyl for giving me that nudge...another thing I forgot to mention this morning!!! Phyl, I tried chair yoga, back when I was participating in Live Strong at the Y. Did not care for it, but thanks for the idea. I do like getting the cardio, and the weight machines. Today I was also able to get 25 minutes of "leisure" lap swimming in too!
I was told on another thread that the Chief/Steeler game was moved back to 7pm start, instead of the noon start, due to the ice storm...have not googled it yet to see if that is correct.
