I had dinner with a friend that lost his wife in 2010, we having a standing date on Tuesdays for dinner, we take turns choosing and paying.
My kids are coming over, along with some in laws and outlaws for Thanksgiving. They wanted to go ahead with the dinner their mom had planned, and I think they think dad is losing it. LOL

Happy anniversary Ed!

Good morning. 51˚ only heading to a sunny 60˚ as this cool front cools. The predicted low tomorrow morning will be 36˚, I'll take a chance of no frost and not cover the garden with hay because a warming trend starts Thursday.

Happy Anniversary Ed.

I submitted another review to costco leaving out the word "smoke" I'll see if I get another rejection e-mail from the moderator.
Maybe you should say the mixer is "literally smoking hot".

I was looking for some papers a couple of days ago and found some wedding day pictures, if I shouldn’t post them here, the mods can just remove them, but I felt like sharing. 2189D326-8330-484B-B013-14241847A734.jpeg4E1FF086-28F8-4AD4-B9DB-BD493351E1F3.jpeg

64°F and .09 inches rain.

Hot Tub redone but my timer didn’t turn off last night. Have to take a look. Can’t have all that electric being used at night.

Will be prepping for TDay.

Be safe
Have a great day

Happy Anniversary, Ed.

Nice pictures, Randy. Can't imagine any reason you shouldn't share them here.

Good Morning!!!! 64F @ 9:30AM. Partly cloudy. High near 70F. Winds light and variable.

The Pro model Kitchen Aide mixers seem to get good reviews at Amazon, Don. And the reconditioned ones sell for about the same price as the lower power one at Costco. Somewhere out there, I bet there'll be a Black Friday deal on one.

I've worn glasses almost all my life, PJ, and in the past ten or so years have had to go with progressive lenses as I can't seem to focus well at any distance anymore. The only real problems come from trying to focus at short distances while looking overhead, or at far distances while looking down. I have some safety glasses with cheater lenses in the top half, and they help a lot for the first case, but I can't tip my head down quite enough to make going down stairs or otherwise watching my feet comfortable. For that I use the hand rails a lot more often now.:confused2:

I was very happy and more than a little relieved to find that the long block on the engine had been completed at the mechanic's yesterday, and he got a stay of execution as a result. But then he started talking about needing another progress payment, and I made it very clear that unless he was so broke he couldn't pay for needed parts (there shouldn't be many), there wouldn't be any payments coming until the engine was smogged. My big concern is that there is the only kit that has been pre-approved by the California Air Resources Board includes a bell housing adaptor and muffler that we aren't using, but somehow he has the metal placard that comes in the kit and declares that the conversion is compliant. That's the magic that gets the Subaru past the smog inspectors without engaging in a very arbitrary ordeal with the smog referees. I was supposed to get an updated copy of the spreadsheet we're using to track progress and costs last night, but I suspect his updates are taking longer than he thought they would because he hasn't been using it for the last six months. My version shows that there's less than $1K balance due, and that's not enough incentive to keep him focused.

Finished the wheels on the old motorcycle yesterday morning, so today I move on to reconditioning the shock absorbers. Need to make some fancy screwdriver like tools to get them apart, so it should be an entertaining day.

I also need to get the salad dressing made for tomorrow's potluck, and get the lettuce and cherry tomatoes rinsed and ready to go...
