If December was the highest posting total for the yet, I think all the credit should go to the return of DR Ron.

I was thinking something similar. Thank you, Ron.

I wouldn't go that far at all. Thanks for thinking of me, though.

Rainy here with temps in the 50's. This is January?

Here, too. It felt like spring when I brought in the newspaper.

Blue skies and 17 degrees this morning.

TCB · « **Reply #93 on:** January 01, 2022, 01:33:24 PM »

Up to 30 degrees now.

We've started a series called Cardinal on Hulu and are enjoying it. It's kind of in the dark, Scandinavian crime genre. Set in a fictional town in Canada. Lots of snow and ice.

It seems like every program in the civilized world is ending up on Hulu.

Futzed and finessed the stuff I'd written - that took quite a while because it was rough and I had to get it right before continuing. And then I wrote seven pages beyond that. Taking a break now for a while and will write more before starting to cook. I'm enjoying it, though.

That's good, bk.

Can you say if the new book is about characters we've met before, or brand new ones?

I agree, and also the return of DR Singdaw.

I am home from New Year's Day lunch at my cousin Debra's. In attendance were her husband Rob, her stepson Lee, her real son Chad, her grandson Wyatt, and her daughter Becky, son-in-law Evan and granddaughter Audrey James.

Lunch was baked ham, sweet potato souffle, collards, black-eyed peas and cornbread. That's Southern eatin', y'all.

I ate well. We had some really good discussion at the table.

One thing I learned, that I suspected, but had confirmed: No one in that family likes to read. It bores them to read.

I have to question my blood ties. I love to read, and so did my mother. My aunt read, too, but her children only read what they had to in school After, nothing new gets read. If it's made into a movie or mini-series, they prefer that.

Sigh.

I don't know if my cousins read much. In my immediate family only my sister didn't read much.

That's huge, and I don't see a way to reduce it.

It is pretty. I hope it comes true, all in very good ways.

Thanks for all the vibes for my car. The last time it did this it needed a new battery, but my car-conscious neighbor tells me that it could be anything. I've had very little trouble with this car, it has low miles, and I have a good mechanic. It's just the timing that's bad. But when are car repairs ever convenient?

Several years ago, when I actually was making money, I gave my wonderful neighbor Pixie, who lives in the apartment below me, $200 for headshots. Last night, around 4:00, she showed up at my door with a carton that had been left in the lobby for me and a shopping bag of gifts: a berry cake she had baked for me, a beautiful card, a couple of Covid home tests, and an envelope containing $200.

What a nice surprise! Did you remember she owed you the money?

Then I'll start the bread bowls.

All this on only four hours sleep? That's impressive!

I learned today that QUEER EYE is now back on Netflix with a new season. Yay! I love that show! I hadn't heard anything at all about a new season.

That's all my news.

Enjoy your day!

I'm at my sister's and we're going to play ... MONOPOLY! It's my niece's favorite game, but no one else really wants to play, but we're going to play it now. Our once-a-year playing for my niece.

Something tells me that 555, two days in a row, ain’t going to happen.

Once it reached 30 here we bundled up for a walk.

It sure was cold this morning wearing shorts to the gym.

I have brought in maybe 15 plants. The weather is going from 80 into the 30s. Then tomorrow night it will drop into the 20s. It’ll be 80 again in a week.

Anybody familiar with a saxophonist named Dan Block? I found an unopened CD titled Dan Block Plays Izzy Baline aka Irving Berlin. It was all of $2 and has songs strictly from the 1920s. Some are famous, some obscure. I liked the first song, which is all I heard.

Celebrated a friend’s birthday at a place that specializes in chicken-fried steak. The dinner was delicious but I couldn’t eat half of the entree.
