Greetings. It has been a challenge for me this week. 2 days ago I forgot that one must lift his foot higher than the curb he is stepping onto. I guess I did not really need all of the skin that was on my knee. Even worse, I forgot to pick up some cheap beer while at the store.

Saturday's Questions:

-Has anyone had to shovel snow or scrape car windows yet?

-Do you keep tire chains in your vehicle?

-Have you ever put tire chains on your car?

-With it being Fall would you rather take a drive in the mountains or walk on the beach?

-Anyone planning to go snow skiing this winter?

-Is it too early to think about Christmas shopping?

Time to step inside and warm up.

-Have you finished, or even started, your Fall house cleaning?

-Whether on purpose. or it just happened, do you have lots of empty perscription pill bottles?


Well I got to get going. My security moose says it wants to wear a costume on Halloween. Not a lot of costumes for sale for moose.

Ouch! Sorry about that. Sorry about the knee, too.

Saturday's Questions:
-Has anyone had to shovel snow or scrape car windows yet?
Nope, not yet.
-Do you keep tire chains in your vehicle?
Not necessary.
-Have you ever put tire chains on your car?
Even when I lived in the north, didn't use them. But plows cleared the roads reliably.
-With it being Fall would you rather take a drive in the mountains or walk on the beach?
Beach first, then mountains.
-Anyone planning to go snow skiing this winter?
Nope.
-Is it too early to think about Christmas shopping?
Yep.
Time to step inside and warm up.
Okay
-Have you finished, or even started, your Fall house cleaning?
Is that a thing?
-Whether on purpose. or it just happened, do you have lots of empty perscription pill bottles?
Nope.

How is the moose at negotiating curbs? Can you put a saddle on a moose and ride it like a horse?

Greeting back. yup-always good to step up. Could be worse tho-you could have taken some skin off your derriere.



Saturday's Questions:

-Has anyone had to shovel snow or scrape car windows yet?
not yet. 70 degrees today. That's way warm for us this time of year but didn't hear anyone complain.


-Do you keep tire chains in your vehicle?
nope.


-Have you ever put tire chains on your car?
nope.


-With it being Fall would you rather take a drive in the mountains or walk on the beach?
how about a walk in the mountains?


-Anyone planning to go snow skiing this winter?
probably someone but that someone would not be me.


-Is it too early to think about Christmas shopping?
easy this year: everyone gets a mask. Thinking of asking a political figure to autograph them.


Time to step inside and warm up.
Step carefully. One skinned knee is enough. More than enough actually.


-Have you finished, or even started, your Fall house cleaning?
haven't even finished my spring cleaning.


-Whether on purpose. or it just happened, do you have lots of empty prescription pill bottles?

nope. When empty, the label comes off and they get put in the recycling box.


Well I got to get going. My security moose says it wants to wear a costume on Halloween. Not a lot of costumes for sale for moose.

just give him a red nose and he can go as Rudolph. or a blonde wig and he can go as...oops never mind.


Thanks, Mutt. feel better soon.

Saturday's Questions:

-Has anyone had to shovel snow or scrape car windows yet?
No, there's no need. We don't get snow or ice here.
-Do you keep tire chains in your vehicle?
See above.

Not me personally, but I've been with people who have had them put on at the gas station or by one of those tire chain people who stand on the side of the road in the Sierra during ski season.
-With it being Fall would you rather take a drive in the mountains or walk on the beach?
I'll take a drive in the mountains.

I wish! I love skiing but have no one to go with.
-Is it too early to think about Christmas shopping?
No, I've already bought a couple of gifts. I like to get it done early.

Thanks!
-Have you finished, or even started, your Fall house cleaning?
No, but I'm home all the time so I do a little bit every day.

I've saved a few for other purposes.



Thanks, Alaskan Mutt! I'm sorry you tripped, but hope your knee is better soon.

Ouch.....

Saturday's Questions:

-Has anyone had to shovel snow or scrape car windows yet?

I wish. Never had problems with that when I lived in a colder country...

-Do you keep tire chains in your vehicle?

I used to, but not anymore. Only when I visit my homeland in winter.

-Have you ever put tire chains on your car?

Several times.

-With it being Fall would you rather take a drive in the mountains or walk on the beach?

Mountains. They are more colorful in the Fall.

-Anyone planning to go snow skiing this winter?

Nope.

-Is it too early to think about Christmas shopping?

Actually, no. Shopping isn't the same anymore, and due to covid selected items are often in small quantity or not available. So, I started to look around a bit earlier than usual.

Time to step inside and warm up.

I am waiting for ARCTIC cold front, the news are warning us about here in Texas. Found out the temps will be mid 70's. Going to put my fur and the boots back in the closed, again...

-Have you finished, or even started, your Fall house cleaning?

Planning to power wash the siding, soon.

-Whether on purpose. or it just happened, do you have lots of empty perscription pill bottles?

Not taking any Rx, yet.

Well, I got to get going. My security moose says it wants to wear a costume on Halloween. Not a lot of costumes for sale for moose.

Happy shopping! Post a picture

Good Morning, tough waking up this morning.

Greetings. It has been a challenge for me this week. 2 days ago I forgot that one must lift his foot higher than the curb he is stepping onto. I guess I did not really need all of the skin that was on my knee. Even worse, I forgot to pick up some cheap beer while at the store. OUCH on the knee. Horrible about forgetting to pick up your cheap beer!


Saturday's Questions:

-Has anyone had to shovel snow or scrape car windows yet? A few days ago there was a thin layer of ice on my windshield. I appreciate my "remote start" that helps speed up the process so I don't have to scrape.

-Do you keep tire chains in your vehicle?

-Have you ever put tire chains on your car?

-With it being Fall would you rather take a drive in the mountains or walk on the beach? Drive up the mountains, we have taken a few hikes up the mountains the last couple of weeks--gorgeous weather, gorgeous Fall foliage.

-Anyone planning to go snow skiing this winter? No, tried skiing a couple of times--too scary for me. I do miss the days where I would take my middle son to Salt Lake City to go snowboarding and I would sit in the beautiful lodge looking out at the skiers and snowboarders.

-Is it too early to think about Christmas shopping? I would like to say yes, but I have started to work on a few sewing projects and picked up a few small items already. My best shopping is always the first week of December.

Time to step inside and warm up.

-Have you finished, or even started, your Fall house cleaning? Is that a thing? Let me get husband on that task! I have put the flower beds to sleep--so the "yard cleaning" is ready for Winter.

-Whether on purpose. or it just happened, do you have lots of empty perscription pill bottles? No

Forecast is for low 70's. Going to be another beautiful Autumn day. Enjoy your day!

Saturday's Questions:

-Has anyone had to shovel snow or scrape car windows yet? Nope.

-Do you keep tire chains in your vehicle? In the desert, no.

-Have you ever put tire chains on your car? No.

-With it being Fall would you rather take a drive in the mountains or walk on the beach? Mountains, my back and hip can't take much walking these days..

-Anyone planning to go snow skiing this winter? No way.

-Is it too early to think about Christmas shopping? Way to early. I wait until about a week before when the best prices are offered.

Time to step inside and warm up. Not when it's 90+ outside. as we have been.

-Have you finished, or even started, your Fall house cleaning? Every 3 weeks a house cleaning service comes and cleans.

-Whether on purpose. or it just happened, do you have lots of empty prescription pill bottles? Not anymore, they went into the re-cycle bin a few months ago.

Well I got to get going. My security moose says it wants to wear a costume on Halloween. Not a lot of costumes for sale for moose.
Thanks Mutt, here's a beer to aid in your recovery.
