I miss both Bob Newhart and Johnny Carson. They didn't need politics to hang their hats on, they had self made humor to introduce us to. Just fun loving humor, no need to rely on the political climate to entertain their audiences. Though got to admit the last 2 years they have lots of material these days.

I love the loop and the Mag mile of Chicago. We make many trips per year via train. Nothing like those areas and always so much fun. I just can't drive it as it is beyond a hedge game that I do not have the skills or desire to navigate. I take a long train ride, take a bus or an Uber and love it. If I tried to drive that nutsville it would not be enjoyable.

I still read it as "Darling" rather than "Dear". I guess it's kind of open to interpretation, since it's all kind of the same thing. Darling, Dear, Disney...Same here.
Plus, when I first became a member of the old Disney site, I simply thought (since it was a Disney site and I had not been a member of any social media site before or since, except this one), that DW, DD, etc., meant Disney Wife, Disney Daughter. etc....!!!

Good morning. I thought I was all caught up at home and could finally get to a few TRs today
In my simple little mind I was caught up, but as usual I forgot something
It rained Saturday and I never did get to all my errands I have to go to Sam's and Wegman's and being so closeish to Target I may have to find an excuse to stop there
@MySmallWorldof4 I really am trying to get to yours, I'm sorry I haven't sooner

Yep, Chick-fil-A is still one of our faves.
Their regular sandwich is great, but, I really like the newer spicy sandwich...!!!
I've never been to a Chick-Fil-A. Guess we don't have those around here. Too bad--I like chicken. We've got tons of Mickey's and Burger Kings (and some Wendy's), but no Chick-Fil-A.

Whatever went down, just remember that today is a new day. Hope things will be a bit better today for you.

They just built the first Chick-Fil-A here a couple years ago and added another one last fall. Still haven't gone.

I remember my pop buying a cord (maybe it was a half cord...?) of wood every fall when we lived in No Cal to burn in our fireplace there during the winter. We had central heat, but, no central air. The fireplace pretty much kept the front part of the house warm, but, we still used the heater, as well. Just not as much.
When we moved back to Texas, we got wood from one of the family farms.
When we bought our home, we also got some wood from the same farm, but, also got a bunch from the 35 acre horse, cattle, and goat ranch that used to be right next to our lot in our dead end (it's now all a developement, and has been for about 15 years, or so...?).
The elderly gentleman that owned the ranch
used to cruise around his property on a 4-wheeler pretty often to check things out. With his permission, we used to let our young kiddos feed the livestock wilted vegetables, apples, etc. We became trusted neighbors.
Shortly after, we had a crazy ice storm one winter, and old trees and branches came down all over that acreage. We ran into him on his 4-wheeler when things began to thaw, and he gave us his phone # and said to just call ahead and take all the fallen/dead wood we wanted.
We definitely took him up on that offer...!
We had access to free firewood for several years after that...!!!
Chick-Fil-A has amazing chicken but what keeps us going back is that their kids meals are phenomenal. When my daughter was little I'd order the kids meal for me because it came with a tiny board book. They're all beautiful stories and the books were so portable that I could carry a few around in my diaper bag for unexpected waits. Now we've been getting her kids meals every once in a while, and getting the big kid books. They're all I Spy books right now, which I'm saving for our next plane ride.
If you do go try Chick-Fil-A, I'd recommend going during breakfast hours and starting with their chicken biscuit (but don't get their coffee, it is SO terrible)

I failed at errands this weekend too, so I ended up ordering groceries to be delivered to my house. Because, lazy. LOL

We didn't have Chick-Fil-As near us until recently and still the closest one is an hour away. I haven't been to that one but I went to the one in the Orlando Airport food court. I got a chicken sandwich and hubby got the nuggets and neither of us were super impressed. Perhaps it was because it was in the airport.

Good morning everyone!
I took the dog for a walk this morning and I hoped it would go better than the one I took her on last night. Last night we basically were a block away and she decided she did not want to walk any further. It wasn't super hot, it was in the low 80's and we were basically in the shade. But anyway, she just stopped and refused to move anymore until I said, "Fine, take me home then" and then she happily turned around and started walking home. So it was a nice turn around the block.
This morning was a different story she was raring to go and we did a mile route. We saw two bunnies though, the first one she wanted to chase and I had trouble getting her to focus back on the walk. The second one was at the end of walk and she basically looked at the bunny and then at me and a look of "Mom, I just can't chase it but I want to". It was kind of funny.

On a rather hot day I took my two dogs on a trail that loops around a really pretty park. About 2/3 of the way down the trail, the big, 115 pound dog decided he wanted to go back to the car, and kept trying to pull me back the way he came. He didn't understand the trip to the car was shorter the way we were heading, LOL. The whole last leg of the trip was: walk a hundred feet or so, dog would sit and refuse to walk that way, convince him to walk more, walk a hundred feet or so, etc. Might have been quicker to take the longer route in the way we came, LOL!

We have them EVERYWHERE here. I don't go because they cook everything in peanut oil, but when I was in elementary school before I developed the allergy, I went, and I did NOT like it. At all. My brother went a while back and didn't like their chicken or their french fries. Everyone here seems to love them...minus us
