This is a freebie site that has everything!!!!! The cool thing about this site is that they show you pictures of the deal (kinda like yelp i guess), and you can search by location (you can save your time and find what you're looking for around your area), by categories or by keywords yummy

Well - what a night. Rained all night here. I slept, but on and off in front of the living room TV during the night. Crawled into bed this morning and curled up into the blankets. Napped on and off much of the morning. I guess I needed some rest.

I need to go over and follow-up on the electrician company doing the work at my parents. They left some things the other day that I was not happy to see. (Like a big hole in the overhang into the attic large enough for bids, squirrels, or gosh knows what to enter the attic. It needs to be sealed up ASAP and poperly taken care of. They misdrilled for a new entry pipe, but that is no excuse to leave the damage to the home and the possibility of wildlife making a home in the house. They also did some misdrilling and damadage to the walls and ceilings in the master bedroom that needs to be taken care of. The family room was redone with all brown outlets and covers except one that they installed as white. That needs to be corrected. They haven't done the basement yet. I need to follow up to make sure my folks are not taken by these people. Too often the elderly are prey for contractors and I don't want to see any more of it than has already happened ther/to them.

Tomorrow is another PT session in the early morning.

I made dark chocolate fudge brownies with caramel "chips" mixed in and sprinkled on top. They are so good! OMG they taste good - way too good to be sitting around here long.

I have some yard trimming to do for waste pickup in the morning tomorrow.

Wishing everyone a wonderful day and I hope those that are ill are feeling better.

Morning all,

Hate to see all your problems Mich. It's just dealing with men that just don't care and think no one will notice. If there's a problem, let someone know and at least fix/patch things up temporarily. That's like my basement bathroom. The drain what put in the wrong spot in the floor for the shower. It was never fix or complained about. So, now, the concrete needs to be tore up and a new drain placed properly.

Oh boy! More yard work, in the cold! I should do that too. I have some dirt that has been moved by rain waters that will block the area in front of the garage from properly drained. So, if I don't take care of it. It could be a problem this winter.

Everyone enjoy.

Not so bad, but I don't seem to get as much done as I hope I will each morning when I get up. The contractors are taking advantage of my parents, but there seems to be little that I can do. I guess I should be thankful that I'm not having to do it myself, but I hate to seem them swindled.

TH is a good tv night for me so I plan to kick back for much the rest of the night. Tvhappy


How are you?

Evening,

Yeah, your not alone Mich on not getting as much done. I did get some stuff done outside. But, made a few batches of CCC's. I oops on the recipe and had to double it. So, I have supply for a few days...

Anyway, bring on Survivor! .... CSI... Earl... I should get the tape ready to record Earl.

Day went alright. Felt a bit better mid-morning and decided to go to work since I don't want to burn too much sick leave before winter even starts. laugh out loud

Looking forward to the Devils @ Caps game tomorrow... free bobbleheads! woot Then on Saturday, I'm taking a bus trip up to Newark, NJ to catch the Caps @ Devils, which should be fun. bounce Aside from that, I'm still working on getting everything put away in my condo (I bought it in September, but brought a bunch of stuff down from NY at the end of October). Life is good.

Sorry to hear that someone's taking advantage of your parents. It seems like that kind of thing happens all the time... makes me a saaaaad panda. Sadwalk

I did manage to find a R2D2 action figure from Star Wars (lights up and makes elctronic R2D2 sounds) for one of the state care kids we adopted for Chirstmas. It's pretty cool and I hope it makes the boys in the family very happy.

I felt lazy tonight so I picked up pizza for dinner. It's been awhile since I went to that place and it was pretty good tonight. Eat

I just score 25 MCR points form the McD Monopoly game. Glad I still have a small number of pieces to play online.
