    Raw day ahead. 34⁰/36⁰ rained all night and will all day. Chance of snow squalls this afternoon.

    Another indoors, leftover soup day.

    Good morning.

    Heading to town to stock up on a few things and a restaurant for lunch.

    Other than that, no other firm plans, which is nice.

    G morning :coffee: It’s been a crazy few weeks.
    My challenge and I rather have brothers and sisters comment so in this thread.

    I have a 21 yo beautiful daughter; still lives at home but is now adult. Like all parents we dont want her to fail BUT god designed us to struggle to get stronger and I have seen too many “babied” adults never grow. My 24 and 27 nephews who had it “tough” are doing better than I was at their age

    Nonetheless, living here Liz pays $350 a month (her rent) goes into her Roth plus company match to 401k
    and struggles with that :picard:

    so words from wise requested

    Give her what she needs most; love. Then add to that guidance. She is a good girl but still definitly still needs guidance.

    X2. You are just helping her save for the future. My mom and dad tried to get to save when I was that age...it took me awhile to learn

    TJV The cold nights warm days cause maple syrup season.. so weather bad., equals Gods sugar syrup :drool: not the chemical stuff they put on waffles

    As for grandpa Dennis granddaughter (my Liz) I have seen a lot of kids and am observant of situations, my parents were Sunday school teachers and Foster parents too many. So good and bad, just like life, compound interest 8th wonder of world (Ben Franklin) and numerous biblical parables that many on here know better than I, but tithing comes to mind

    I received a call a little while ago from a nurse at the hospital where I had my surgery last week, asking how I was doing. I said I was doing fine except I was having wicked mood swings, I assume as an after affect of the anesthesia. She then proceeded to ask about pain, meds, bowels, etc while sidestepping the mood swings. She didn't even ask if I was suicidal, which I'm not. I guess the purpose of the call was to check a box. Our medical dollars well spent.

    Morning all. Grey and damp this morning.

    Yesterday stayed dry so after dinner while scooping poop, I realised I could probably mow the lawn so I did. Not the entire lawn, just around the edges where the dogs have been fertilizing it. Parts of the lawn they have been dethatching the moss out of the lawn with their energetic playing. Our yard definitely looks like a play yard.

    Well, the Blue Jays did well and Canada lost the gold in curling. Silver is hard to take when the entire country expects gold for their team.

    Bookkeeping, chores and probably baseball watching today. I did get into the sewing room first thing this morning and worked on a quilt until everyone else wanted to be fed.

    Everyone have a great day.

    Take Care. I hope and pray your mood has been stabilizing and that you are feeling better overall.

    Good morning, members.

    Winter weather arrived overnight. Snow covered ground, deck, and vehicles. Driveway might be icy. 28⁰/44⁰ sunny day should melt away what fell.

    I'll be visiting mom this morning. Then, some errands while I'm out.

    Be safe
    Be healthy

    Good morning.

    We are planning a snowshoe into the property and cabin we bought a few years ago ago. It is just 1.5 miles up the road.

    a few shots from yesterday.
