Ahhhh....thanks for the ping-a-ling and for the cold remedies! I might have to sign off earlier than “normal” tonight. It’s hard to look at the computer screen for long periods with this insane headache!

I never did anything but sleep yesterday. By this morning I couldn’t remember what day it was. LOL!

I do hate to be sick. I’m a lousy patient because I’m hardly ever sick!

I think it’s supposed to get colder here, too...and then 75 in a few days! I don’t think we’re ever going to have winter weather! LOL!

You Are Calm and Content
You are calm and relaxed. You seek out serenity and tranquility.
You are agreeable... to a point. You know when it's time to do your own thing.

Building real and deep relationships matters to you. You are a person of substance looking for others of substance.
You are accommodating and peace-seeking. You do your best to make others happy.

"Calm and relaxed". Yes, for the most part, except when LUV W picks on me! ROFL

Mid 60's? Whoa, I envy your weather!

It's suppose to get real Arctic on us here in the next few days....C-c-c-cold, single digits!

Had lunch at the VFW today with a nice 89 year old Korean War vet, Dave. He's down there everyday and is just a great guy to talk to, sharp as a tack.

Our chapter is going to lay wreaths Friday on Veteran's graves at a local cemetery, I love the brotherhood.

You and me both. I rarely get sick but when I do, it ain’t pretty. LOL

This weather roller coaster creates prime conditions for making people sick. After that 60 degree Saturday, we’ll drop back into the 30s again. They’re calling for thunderstorms Sat. night and possible snow flurries by the time it’s all over with.

I’d rather have your 75 degrees and let it just stay there. :-)

Don’t be envious. It’s just for one day. We’ll be back in the 30s right afterwards. At least we won’t have single-digit temps like y’all will. Yay for that! That’s just too cold!

Sounds like you had a nice day. And a nice Friday coming up, though it’ll be right nippy for laying the wreaths.

Does Charlie have a Santa suit or elf outfit to wear at Christmas time? That would be too cute!

LOL!

Hmm....I notice that the mods haven’t added the title to my thread yet, though I asked them to about an hour ago! Someone is asleep in the wheel!

Good evening, Radu!

*HUGS*

We got a nice 7-foot Noble Fir Sunday. The lights went on last night and we started putting the ornaments on this afternoon. We'll finish tomorrow evening and Thursday.
