Good morning everyone. All is good here as I'm kicking off the weekend with WADDB and Bagels. Wishing you a reflective evening Connie with friends this evening. Great news for Pudsey ... stay warm Gerry and Fogfighter. Weekend chores and projects are on my schedule this afternoon. But first we have game plans this morning with ROOT, the RPG. Have a great day everyone

Good Saturday morning. Sunny and warmish today - it was 73 degrees here yesterday! But we're supposed to get freezing rain tonight. When we went in town last night, we noticed they had already treated the main roads with salt brine.
Settlers 2 sounds like a great way to spend the day, Fogfighter!
Connie, sounds like the perfect way to mark your sad day - surrounded by friends and raising a toast.

Good morning everyone. We're heading into a couple of rainy days, perfect for sorting through my kitchen cupboards and reorganizing pots and pans into a more logical order, with the heavy cast iron stuff at waist height for easy reach. My coffee this morning is a yummy new bean from a local roastery that my handyman recommended. Nanaimo may not be the world's nicest city (not by a long shot!) but it does have a couple of good coffee roasteries. Connie, It's lovely that you can remember your husband surrounded by friends. The laptop crashed again and when I tried to restart it went into an endless loading loop with error after error. Windows did finally load, but it looks as though another trip back to Toronto is in the cards for it.

Good Sunday morning everyone. Oh my Hagatha, sorry to hear your laptop saga continues. We are back to normal winter temps and enjoyed a nice walk this morning. Today's main chore includes a good vacuum as Max has been shedding his coat. And then we'll continue some more Magic: The Gathering (MTG) gaming. But first it's time for WADDB and bagels. Wishing everyone a wonderful Sunday

Good Sunday morning. Jeepers, Gerry, you just can't catch a break with the weather!
Had to run down and do the night close/feedings at the last minute last night. They were heading to the ER and both mom and daughter have Influenza A. So glad I have my flu shot and COVID booster on board as I took RayLynn home from the bus Thursday when her mom wasn't feeling well.
Task for today is to get my pepper seeds started in their little indoor seed starters.

Good morning everyone,
It's a bright and beautiful morning, quite warm and Spring-like, and the cats are going nuts because of the change in the weather. Zoomies all morning. I have a few things to tidy up out in the garden in preparation for the arrival of trees. It really feels like Spring, sun pouring in through the French Doors and shrubs starting to go into bud. Apart from heavy rain we didn't really have a winter this year -- though we have had heavy snow in March in years gone by so it's still a remote possibility.
I have many birds in my pond these days. I was worried that the new stream was too fast for them but they still drink and bathe in it. Once I get the new trees planted around the back they'll have places to perch.
I'm always up to date on my Flu and COVID boosters. I can't afford to get sick.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Sunday without much sunshine. Just above freezing point and raining rather than snowing but still snow on the ground. Sorry to hear about Hagatha's laptop  PC-problems always annoying. My settlers are happily settling on their island. As I recall the first levels were easy but later the neighbouring barbarians became more agressive and tougher to deal with. Anyway, Happy first Sunday in March GameBoomers!

Fogfighter, have fun with the gaming. I've never tried any of those games being strictly an action/RPG player.

Good Morning everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready.  Happy to say we only got 1/2 inch of snow yesterday. But with snow piles 4 feet deep it is going to be weeks before it melts! Not a speck of grass is visible any where. The snow on my deck is 3 feet deep...some of it from drifting off the roof. The days are getting longer and the sun is stronger, but the cold nights slow the melting. Hope you all have a good Monday!  Gerry

Good Monday morning. The freezing rain seems to have stayed north of us, but we did got some beneficial rain overnight that didn't freeze. Very dark and dreary here.
Connie, and here I thought you were already DONE with your addition! But you still didn't even have the building permit... ridiculous!

Good Monday morning, everyone.
We're having another lovely day. This was an early morning for me as it was Willow's monthly mani-pedi with the Vet Technician, who comes to my house on her way to work to trim her claws.
Went out to the store, got all the chores done early so I can have a nice relaxing day until later in the afternoon, when I have a phone call booked with yet another Dell technician. Hopefully I won't have to send the computer back again, but I'm not holding my breath.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Good Monday afternoon you all. Quick grocery run this morning. Enjoyable weather today with lots of sunshine. Stay warm Gerry. Hope your call with Dell gets you up and running Hagatha. I can well imagine the backlog with the city Connie...probably a small office. Have a great day everyone

I'm anxious to hear how this call with the Dell technicians goes. It was SUCH a bad sign when it was shipped back to you still turned on. Seems to me they are just putting band-aids on it and not really fixing anything. I Strong suspect the motherboard was NOT replaced at all last tiime.

Draclvr, the laptop has been left on all three times it's been shipped back to me. I unbox it, open it up, and immediately see an error message on the screen. It is working, though, and did a couple of auto--updates this morning so hopefully it's ALMOST repaired. It seems there's just a general carelessness going on over there. The reports always say they've tested the laptop and verified it's working properly, but then they send it back showing an error message. I don't think they're hiring the best and brightest.
It's too bad, because when it's working properly it runs EVERYTHING well. It's the last laptop I'll buy anyway.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.
