Same Costco entertainment stand; yet one looks infinitely better.
Can't imagine why.

Oh wait, maybe it's the 43" TV compared to the 65" screen. :joyfull:

I promised Hubby he can have a 65" TV too - in July.
(What I didn't tell him is that I'm moving back down to the family room and bumping him up to the living room. :hilarious:)

Things change in minutes around here, more storms rolling in, and I have a major headache now, fixed hubby, and my self dinner. Going to call it a day. More snow for Saturday night into Sunday, only 1 to 3 inches. Does your forecast change multiple times? I wish someone could tell me why it's so hard to make a weather forecast and keep it. Good night to all, took some Advil, and will be better tomorrow. thanks again for my nite nite picture....heavenly dreams to all I'm seeing a boat trip in my dreams tonight..

Time for me to tell a funny story...not so funny at the time, but I laugh about it often...living on the farm could be filled with exciting times with farm animals...Pigs ...and we had quite a few of them. We had one sow, probably weighed in at 100lbs. Maybe less, I was a kid....anyway I went out to the barn, with mom to feed the pigs....I made the mistake of taking a Clark Bar (kind of candy bar with me). Mom was slopping the hogs (feeding them) I stood there watching, and munching on my weekly treat. We had this big old mean sow (as my mother said...that she was mean). Any way, this sow charged me, and took away my Candy Bar. The funny part, she knocked me down, in a BIG pile of cow manure . I went under. It took my Mom several bath's to take the stink away. I never went into the barn, to feed the pigs again. I watched behind a screen door. Moral to the story...don't have kids and pigs at the same time on the farm! :D

We raised market hogs (duroc and bluebutt) and market steers (hereford and shorthorn) for 4-H. I was in for ten years but we had them on the farm for almost fourteen. Growing up we had pigs, cows, chickens, horses, mules and coondogs. One of my sisters has the farm now and only has horses, chickens and goats.

When we first got the farm I wanted to have some pigs - after all I saw Arnold on Green Acres and he was nice. My DW explained just how mean they are. Now, I hear stories from the farmers of how they have to pour whiskey in the sow's ears so she won't kill her new pigliets....

Not all pigs are "mean", stubborn yes. Amazingly they can be easily trained just like dogs if you have the time and patience. Being in 4-H we had to spend a certain amount of time every day of fair week in the barn. There were times we'd sit in lawn chairs in our pen and they'd lay at our feet like a puppy. :joyfull:

You know what's funny?
So I was at the Hilton in Rockwall, Texas Tuesday and Wednesday night for our work retreat. The hotel sits right on the lake, which was great. The property was beautiful. Training during the day and drinking/eating during the night. Tuesday night we had a suite at a AA baseball game and Wednesday night we rented a double-decker party boat and floated on the lake late into the night. Everyone was exhausted at work today.:hungover:
