Vixmom, how was the restaurant? I haven't had a moment to try it yet.

it was very nice! The Vixter had meatloaf with mashed potatoes and green beans from the main menu
I ordered off the brunch menu and had the steak and eggs. The steak was delicious, perfectly cooked and served with a wonderful demiglace, I requested the eggs poached with hollandaise sauce and they were likewise perfectly cooked and came with buttery homefries

We both enjoyed our meals

The weather predictions for tomorrow are all over the map; snow predicted anywhere from 6 to 16 inches.

Apparently they are naming the winter storms now, like they do the hurricanes.

That all sounds excellent. I'll get back there soon, just to EAT.

Didn't they start naming the storms a year or two ago? (I HATE IT.)

OMG I agree with DR Vixmom. I have never climbed on a roof and hope to never do do. I am too afraid of falling.

It's a flat roof, you'd pretty much have to jump to fall. I have been on slated roofs, but not the one on this house because I have a slate roof and if you walk on a slate roof the slate will break

Happy Anniversary to HHW!!!

I will post more in a little while I have a cat in my lap and can't type very well

there was also this really interesting place across the street we wandered around a little to look (could have looked for hours!) but there was nothing on the menu to the Vixter's liking

We have received the check-in info for our apartment, so DR Elmore's fire escape is available!

'night!

Ok, first of all, I found this site in about 2005. I was working on the computer...maybe on my photography and listening to the Lost in Boston that my friend Rupert is on. After his song..there was this guy singing "I Love Fish" I couldn't figure it out. I actually thought that my radio had turned itself on or something. It wasn't listed on the CD case, so I emailed Rupert and he said "That's Bruce Kimmel and it's called an Easter Egg"

After getting that straightened out, I did a search for Bruce Kimmel and found this site. I began posting shortly after finding it. Not too long after that I went to a seminar in Portland where I met George, Jane and her DH Keith, and the JMK family. I realized that this was a great group and was quick to decide to go NYC to meet more of the HHW family. I also made it to LA and met up with our own BK. I'm hoping this new cat sitter may work out so I can see people once again

Sounds like a great day Vixmom!

Cillaliz · « **Reply #135 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:09:19 PM »

It's been great to have my HHW family who is always here when I'm concerned about this or that.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #136 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:11:48 PM »

I would have been here earlier, but I was being productive.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #137 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:12:28 PM »

First I went to the office and got the project done I wanted to get done. It is now sitting in an express mail envelope and will go to the post office in the morning

Cillaliz · « **Reply #138 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:13:12 PM »

Then, I came home and ate pie (I got a whole pumpkin pie yesterday there isn't a lot left)

Cillaliz · « **Reply #139 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:14:27 PM »

Then I went out and put plastic up over the window and door of my laundry room and the kitchen and powder room windows. It's clear, you can see through it, but it's the north side of the house and makes a huge difference in the temperature in the house

Cillaliz · « **Reply #140 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:17:31 PM »

Oh, before I went outside, I did all the prep work and started a vegetable beef soup. When I came in 2 hours later it was just right. Yummy!

Cillaliz · « **Reply #141 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:17:45 PM »

Let's see, then I did the laundry

Cillaliz · « **Reply #142 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:18:09 PM »

Oh, and I took the screens off of the front and back doors and put in the storm windows

Cillaliz · « **Reply #143 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:18:34 PM »

I cleaned out the leaves from the drain from the lower patio

Cillaliz · « **Reply #144 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:18:48 PM »

I trimmed the bushes in front of the house

Cillaliz · « **Reply #145 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:18:57 PM »

I refilled the bird feeder

Cillaliz · « **Reply #146 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:19:08 PM »

Ummm, I think that's about all I did

Cillaliz · « **Reply #147 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:21:35 PM »

Now I'm listening to the news. There is a weekend news caster who is really whiny about the weather...."oh, it's going to be cold, I hate it, I'm going to blame the weather man" I'd watch a different channel but there isn't another doing the news right now.

vixmom · « **Reply #148 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:22:24 PM »

I did a lot of driving

vixmom · « **Reply #149 on:** November 09, 2014, 08:22:38 PM »

and clapping
