~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I remember the last time December had 5 Saturdays very well. thumbsup

You didn't know I was that old did you? wink

I have a time machine remember? grin

I really only care that December has at least 5 days in it.

My birthday is the 5th one. lol

I'm doing a few lines and then posting it, a few more lines and posting. lol

I hate computers!

There must be a better way to get to the internet. duh

After all, if all computers disappeared, or even more realistically, if they all quit working at once, would the internet stop existing?? duh

Gotta post now. slapforehead

TV should have an internet network. thumbsup

Gameboomers could be on Channel 9. penguin

That would make us all TV reality stars.

I shall ponder this as I lament my internet connectivity problems.

Have a happy day everyboomie.

Good Morning Boomers

Joe, glad you're posting. Morning wouln't be the same without your wonderful sense of humor.

Ana, sorry you have to spend the whole day in the corner but we need and appreciate you.

Haroula, please send us some of your sun. We're not going to see it for awhile.

Cailyn, Stay safe. Thanks for the coffee.

Gerry, stay safe also. Loosing power is my biggest concern also.

Venus, have a good day!

Church this morning then cleaning up the yard this afternoon. I usually leave my patio furniture out all winter but I'll be stuffing everything I can fit in the shed.

Ahhhh such a day. hardwall

Son in rotten mood and exuding it all over the place.

Kids here still...........................

Hubby in bad mood because son exuded all over him.

Dog barking and barking and barking!

Internet decided to die. Tech support informed me it was working perfectly according to their tests.

I'm off to take up drinking....though I expect what I drink will be hot chocolate. wave
