Good morning/afternoon.

Happy belated Birthday Mike!!

I have been up since 3:30. Lately I have been getting up and unable to back to sleep.

No game for me to really get into today, 'cept maybe watch the Pat's and hope for Brady to choke (just once ) tonight. Maybe check out the skins too. Waiting for Thurday night is going to kill me.

It's cold and cloudy- perfect for watching a game, chilling on the couch and eating good food, but no good game and no desire to really cook after hosting Thanksgiving this week. Poor poor pitiful me.

RYD, I have a video of a school interview I did with my Pappaw about his life, as a veteran and serving in WWII and Korea shortly before he passed, it is a treasure.

Just sitting around enjoying the day till I go to work at 3pm. My Dad was in WWII, he hasn't talked to much about it. But what he has told me I will forever hold close. As for this Suday and every day I thank God that he is still here and pray that he gets better.

Have a Great Sunday everyone.

Just turned on my computer to see a weather statement about the first freeze hitting us tonight. I had been procrastinating on my cold frames for about a week now. We were only supposed to get down to the 40s, suddenly the forecast changed. Darnit. I have these great PVC frames over 6 beds but there's no way I can rig up my plastic sheeting this afternoon that fast, especially if the current wind chill is in the upper 30s. I'm not a cold weather person and I'm not going to leave the heated indoors, especially for a bunch of freakin plants. Gonna have to cover it in sheets and hope for the best. Supposed to be back into the 70s by mid week, I'll get the frames ready then. And by doing so, assure that there will be no more freezes this year.

Convinced hubby to finish painting the garage as well - it's a miracle to pry the XBox controller out of his hand at any given time, especially on a day off. But my dad (who was over for Thanksgiving) got the wall primed and the first coat of red on while hubby was at work, and he loved it when he saw it yesterday. I guess that was enough motivation. The rest of the garage is a light tan, then we have this one wall a bright red where the black and diamond-plate chrome cabinets are going to go. That room is gonna rock.

Now that Thanksgiving is over, time to sort through the Christmas decor as well and see what goes where. Moving to a new place can suck - we had everything tailored to the old house as far as lights go (about 70 strands), so the first year in the new place is going to take a while figuring out a new setup. That's also part of the fun, tho. Once it warms up, of course.

Y'know, there's a cure for that! Happy belated, Mike.
Steven Spielberg, after making Schindler's list, started the Shoah* (Hebrew for Holocaust) Society to make video records of oral histories from survivors still living. They then archive digital copies. Also, my niece took down a biography of his for her thesis at Brown. I digitally archived generations of family photos to go with her completed work.
Have a great Sunday and week EVERYONE!

*Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation: "In 1994, after filming Schindler's List, Steven Spielberg established Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation with an urgent mission: to videotape and preserve the testimonies of Holocaust survivors and witnesses. Today, the Shoah Foundation has collected more than 50,000 eyewitness testimonies in 57 countries and 32 languages, and is committed to ensuring the broad and effective educational use of its archive worldwide."

That's just in case I run into some little ashholes! It's adhesive tape. If you're ever bleeding or sprained, you'll be glad that I have it! And it's my blue ink, Dammit!
Happy Sunday, RYD.

Happy Sunday, RYD.

You should be ashamed of yourself telling them lies.

I can answer your question.

That's a medal.

I've seen medals before, and that looks like a medal to me.

Hell, I've even been awarded a few back in the day....

That one's special though....

I believe it to be the medal awarded to those released from prison.

You know, people that were able to maintain their virginity throughout their sentence receive the honorable tiny butthole paper roll!
