I'm heading upstairs to ma rooms.. putting up the "closed for the night" sign and sayin "bonne nuit a tous"

Eldest & I watched "Hostiles" with Christian Bale.
Bonne nuit à vous aussi.

You can call me any dayum time you feel like it Zee.
You know where the number is (in French, of course).

well THIS is fugged up.. where the.. oh wait.. NOW page 14 appears..

welcome to the twilight zone.. I know I'm, shall we say, "different" but this is weirder than normal

yuppers coot.. found it when I read that short story of yours.. phew.. quite an interesting read I tell ya.. almost.. riviting

merci buckets dude.. bonne journatto a toi..

*Zee skips off ta do some in house chores* dangnabbit.. this place is gettin' dusty.. *cough-cough*

OMG we had a blizzard here this mornin.. had to shovel yet again.. at least it's still powdery snow WOOT.. mind you.. that wind was a howlin.. phew!

freakin freezin out thar now.. plenty of snow drifts too..

time to go snuggle in front of a roarin fire with a good book, hot chocolate with mini smellers and a really warm blanky

Glad I never have to shovel snow, pfff...
We had 2-3 days of snow here in January. Which is quite something for the south west, right next to the North Sea.
Once was barely 2cm, didn't even cover everything, 2nd time it was about 12cm, allowing me to make a small snowman, hihi.
The next day it had collapsed as it temperatures had gone up again. Leaving me with a shawl and a cap on the ground, haha.

Right now it's some 11C and the sun is shining. Finally some sunlight again!

I have lived in Texas almost all of my life so snow is something we very seldom see if we do it only last a couple of days...

But I did live in Kearney Nebraska for a year when I was 12. They had one of the worst snow falls
they had had in a long time that year.. It was awesome.. yes snow drifts were so tall it was unreal..
The house next door to us the snow drifts were all the way to the eves of the house..
My brother and his friends were jumping off the peak of our house into the snow drift in the backyard..

Remember getting up and opening the front enclosed porch door and the
snow had covered the door way.. My brother had to climb out a window to go clear
the snow from the front door.. And uncovering my dad's car so he could go to work..

As much as I enjoy looking at it for a short time not sure I could for several weeks..

Ya tough girl doing all that shoveling..

I am so JEALOUS.. right now here? it's -22C but feels like -32C 🥶

upside on this winter? snow's been mainly powder which is so easy to shovel.. however can't have snowball fights or build any snowmen..

I ain't tough.. I'm simply Canadian and used to it..

we had one of those snowfalls last winter.. snow up the wah-zoo.. took me 6 days to shovel my driveway to get my car out snowblower pooped out on me cuz it wasn't strong enough to handle the heavy, deeper than it, snow..

problem round here is.. houses are so far apart (about a 1/4 mile away if not more) that "neighbors" don't really get to know each other.. most mainly stick to themselves and rarely offer to help each other out.. so no one bothered to offer helping me dig myself out.. not even the rent-a-plows.. guess they were too busy

prior to that was about 20 yrs ago.. woke to the patio door completely covered in snow AND the front door was 3/4's covered.. we tossed my youngest out the front door to go to the shed to get the shovels.. took her almost an hour.. I kept calling out to make sure she was still with us suffice to say no one did anything but shovel for the next few days after

Morning lurkers.. happy SUNDAY!! WOOT.. it's BRUNCH time.. YUM!



oops.. that last one was a tad too much.. ma bad

Morning just finished a late Breakfast, scrambled eggs, bacon, crispy crowns, Biscuit and Jalapeno Jam of course with coffee..

Humm now off to piddle around the house and maybe get a few things done..

I'll be piddlin round the house in a bits.. that looks yummy TxsGal..

mine will consist (later) of scrambled eggs, bacon, homemade hashbrowns (with garlic'n diced onions), waffles and pancakes served up with real Quebec Maple Syrup..

I actually ate the last few sausages for supper on Thursday

have an amazing day girl

Maple syrup???
Did anyone say MAPLE SYRUP?
I'm awake now, you got my attention!
When can you be here? You got your driveway sussed, so you should be able to leave tha house, haha.
I LOVE maple syrup!!
The rest of what you mention sounds great too. I'm hungry! It's dinner time, 17.00 over here, so you're more than welcome with that food!
Do not forget the maple syrup, lol.
Please.

Crystal.. I got a cupboard full of Maple Syrup cans.. now YOU can be jealous

you got the weather I'd love right now.. I got loads of yummy golden liquid YOU love.. lol

ma bad.. only made enough for 1.. but it was good! lol

Canadians sent a Norwegian coach Bjørnar Håkensmoen 5 tonnes of maple syrup.. maybe ask him for some??

haha, you're making me --> 🤣
A whole cupboard full?! Greedy git!
I'm happy if I get to buy a small bottle of the stuff. (never seen any larger ones)

What do you have to do to get 5 tonnes of maple syrup? Maybe I too can apply for that, lol.

Glad your dinner was good. Mine was a bit of a disaster but thank goodness I had a nice beetroot salad so in the end it was still okay :)

Gnawing on a smoked gobbler drumstick, like the feudal Lord of my Manor that I am.
Gave the serfs....errr, SONS, the day off and a can of green beans each.
Are we ready for some FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!?

NO. Watching professional sports is a waste of my (and everybody else's) time.

Careful, Son, yer talkin' to a Packers fan.
It ain't a sport with us, it's a personal religion, ranking above family & money.

Don't think badly of us either, since it's passed on in our DNA the family is not only religious about it too, but EVERY Packers fan is a part of our families.
