I'm out for a nap. A little late, better late than never!

how about 10 toes of snow?

NO Such a kind offer but NO THANK YOU.

Exactly...everything shuts down as soon as a couple of flakes fall and then people freak out. My in-laws...the first time it snowed after I moved over here, we got something like 3/4 inch, which to them was A LOT of snow. I wanted to go out and we were going to walk to the bus stop and my in-laws were like "You can't go out in this!! You could fall! It's terrible out there!" I just said "Look, if I stayed home every time it was like this back home, I'd be stuck in my house 9 months of the year!"

This is what we do in Los Angeles when it rains:

^^^^^ This is what I was expecting as well! I was planning on bringing the corn and some marinated veggies to put on your grill!

I love corn cooked on the grill. Please bring one for me.

This time of year with less sunlight sends my body into hibernation mode. I don't know when to sleep or wake up. It's gets worse when we set the clocks back.

Sounds like you're sleep walking!

 

[MinnieM123]

This is what I pictured when I read your post.

Hey @betty rose , I just noticed that you are an esteemed "Premium" member here on the Chit Chat board! (I assume that was to help out with all the glitches you've been having with your computer since they upgraded this site. Hope it helps for you.)

I'm gonna continue to hang out upstairs here at the computer desk, and avoid the downstairs. Hubby and the dog are at it again with the fly hunt. You see, we had a few days of late summer heat here, and it brought flies. Hubby absolutely hates flies. Dog love flies, as he believes that food with wings are a delicacy.

So in the theater of war downstairs, hubby has been spraying a can of Raid like a madman, all over the downstairs--I can even smell the stench of that spray up here. Meanwhile, dog has been running around, crashing into furniture, leaping up into the air and catching the occasional fly. (More flies get away, than what he catches. ) Then I hear hubby yelling at the dog to spit out the flies he licked up off the floor, because those were the ones hubby had sprayed with Raid, and he told the dog he'd die of DDT poisoning!

This is my life . . .

I had a couple shots (vaccines) today and my left, dominant, arm is in so much pain that it's almost impossible for me to do anything with it without wincing in pain. It's really weird since the shot hurt significantly less than the one into my right arm, and that arm feels fine!

Your arm will feel better in 1-2 days at the most. I work in a hospital (although I am not a clinician), and a whole bunch of us got flu shots the other day. There was only a very slight discomfort the day after and then it was completely gone. You'll be o.k. soon!

I just hope it's not too sore for school tomorrow. If I tried writing with my right hand, it wouldn't be a pretty sight

Ha! Not to worry, you'll still have "some" soreness, but nothing you can't handle. Maybe take one Advil to dull the pain.

I feel like watching either a Studio Ghibli movie or one of the four WDAS movies I haven't watched yet (3 Caballeros, Make Mine Music, Melody Time, and Dinosaur) this weekend.

Any suggestions? I've already seen Nausicäa, My Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke, and Spirited Away from Ghibli.

Also, it wasn't final 'til tonight, but we're drivin' to NOLA for the weekend to celebrate some more. The birthday girl has always wanted to go there...!

Happy Birthday to her! Have fun in NOLA!

I haven't seen any of those on your list, so I'd suggest that any one of them would be good to watch!

I want to see Walt before Mickey. Funny how they are both coming out in the same month.

I would like to see Walt Before Mickey too, but the closest theater showing it is about an hour away. So I might just wait until video.
