There are three methods to gaining wisdom. The first is reflection, which is the highest. The second is limitation, which is the easiest. The third is experience, which is the bitterest.

Good morning everyboomie.


Hump day ALREADY?


Time does fly, unless you're in a hurry, and then it takes the train.


Been having a good week so far. Monday and Tuesday were kinda nice but very windy. Wednesday is supposed to be 70 degrees, and very little wind,so I'm going to run out to the sod farm and see what I can scratch up.


I've been doing a lot of yard work, trimming bushes up and I have a tree to cut down that is actually in my neighbor's yard. It's a pear tree that grows these very large, very hard pears that are inedible. They are just in my way when I'm trying to mow, so I'm getting rid of it, with their blessing of course.


Other than that, I've been doing a lot of exercising. Trying to get back on track with that.


Have a happy day everyone.


joe

What day is it Mike?

Hey Joe and Ana ... hope you both survived yesterday

Venus...did the snow wait for you?

Gerry...did you get 12 more inches of snow?

Connie...hope you had fun last night at Panda...sounded like a wonderful time

Sorta...enjoy your hair while you can!

Have a great Hump Day everyone

at the farm, Joe! Enjoy your 70 degree weather.

Soot, not really, but it was mostly freezing rain, so I only had to pay attention to slippery roads rather than accumulation. There is a prediction for snow again tomorrow, but I'll be home, so it doesn't matter to me. Hope your project went well!

It's late Tuesday night, and I'm off to sleep. I do have to work tomorrow, but it's just a training course for a new project involving some stores I regularly visit, and I can do this at home. I scheduled my time like this intentionally, as I knew tomorrow had the most dramatic weather prediction of all. It may end up being a nonissue, but I'm prepared regardless. Plus, I can play games afterward.

Okay, off to sleep now. Have a terrific Wednesday, everyone.

Good Morning Joe, soot, venus and everyone. Joe good luck searching for points! Soot our snow is just beginning. It's going to be a long day. Venus nice you get to work safely from home and not deal with the snow. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready.
Wishing you all a safe and happy day!

Good morning everyone, have a Great Hump Day. Queen of Hearts at the Eagles tonight. Danish, Eggs, Grits, Hash Browns, BB Pancakes, Bacon, and French Toast in the NC.

Good morning Joe Venus Gerry and Connie

Have a great Hump Day!

Game day with family and music whenever I can sneak it in

Hey Joe, watch out for partridges in that pear tree!

Thanks, Gerry. Hope you get to stay in as well, since your snow has just started. Thanks for the hot chocolate.

Have fun tonight, Connie.

Enjoy your game, as well as your family and music time today, soot.

It's a good thing I scheduled my training today, as it is snowing heavily now. I may even end up having to transfer tomorrow's projects to Friday, although I hope not, as I'd like to keep my 3 day weekend. I'll just have to wait and see.

I finished my training project early, so that means I have the rest of the day to game. Thorsgoats called out today as well, so we may play some Life is Strange: Before the Storm together later.

Hope everyone is having a terrific Wednesday so far.

EDIT: Hope you're having a great day, Sorta.

Wonderful Wednesday ya'll

House still full

Happy Wednesday all! I was at the BlackHawks game last night and got home late. Today was a long, full day. The next two weeks will be very hectic.

Ana

Good night, everyone.
