snow moving horizontal here, but not sticking. boiler all repaired and reset. hubby and bro did excellent job. I made good food and gave him a freezer bag of even better venison sausage.

still buried in paperwork but choked out the most important, now on to the ones marked 'urgent'......

got jeep parts in to upgrade to 46 ****** for the son, we won't work on it unless he does. and he has been sleeping a lot lately or non social. see how that works for ya, son.

have to go out and do some little gift shopping, and the MOM shopping (underwear and socks) so put your requests in, boyz. would hate to get confused and send pink speedos to ChrisR or XXL boxers to Fronty.
better just to no think about it

got some rum (I must look like a rum lover) sent to me from Brazil. sea faring captain type friend. sweeter than brown sugar, ack. too sweet for anything alcohol. better find a cookie recipe or something..... I am sending him a hula girl dashboard friend....she sways, blinks eyes and says helllloooooo sai lor.... sweet for sweet.

hope your tooth settles down eric, you can have all th erum you want!

hope your spirits are well Blake, you can have all the hugs you want.

why so late last night, scotty? safe trip home.

ugh. back to paperwork.

2 inches weeds out the diots here... but dang! Of course, we don't call it a crash until there's more than $1000 damage or injury.

What's the matter Claude, you short a little snow?
