good morning everyone- 27 here and a bit windy but both cats were ready for fresh water and food! Yesterday was rain and misty about all day but I don't think it amounted to much. Hubby made a trip to Menard's. Though we aren't in Stay at Home for the state we both think it may come soon. Our state leaders have some kind of prerequisites to determine whether the  stay at home is implemented.
Anyhow- he needed a few things to finish some projects so I suggested he go while he can. He said there were fewer people and they did stay away from each other.
ra- you post of the Queen song was a riot- there are some talented people out there.

Ted is so fun to watch- he gets fed Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 10 AM and he starts watching for his feeder early. I love to watch him.

Have a great day jewelies!

12.08  Those circles are tough, but still thankful for puzzles and posts FYI.
 Joan is sleeping fitfully.  She woke up at 7am feeling bad all over.  Back to sleep, but moaning and talking in her sleep.
I am afraid our country, and world, will not soon be the same as it was.  I miss our freedom.  Especially our freedom to comfortably roam and mingle with family and friends.  Isolation may be healthy, but it sucks.
May God bless us all especially those who are suffering now.

johoward- I hear you!! As you know hubby and I like to drive about- go out for lunch, etc.  What seems like not such a big deal is really a big deal. Right? I have a difficult time accepting change but now I have no choice and yes it does suck.

I spent the morning cleaning in the attic- much dust and flies- yucky.

However a bright spot was a neighbor just delivered a pan of cinnamon rolls. She has her own catering business and a food truck  in the warm weather  we do patronize. It has just gotten to 32 here and hubby has wood stove set for steaks for lunch. Sweet potato and a salad round out the meal with a cinnamon roll for dessert. Wish you all were here to share!!!

hi ra well some good news chiefs signed sammy to a new contract..

The Kansas City Chiefs and wide receiver Sammy Watkins reached an agreement Friday on a restructured one-year contract for the 2020 NFL season that reportedly saves the franchise $5 million in salary-cap space.

Watkins, who was set to enter the final season of his three-year, $48 million deal with the reigning Super Bowl champions, saw his base salary drop from $13.75 million to $9 million, but the pact includes incentives that could elevate the value to $16 million,

hi lupe yum to cinnamin rolls and that salad! i saw your state still a hold out on lockdown. i think it will take summer heat humidity to rid of ykw. jim got  fire going in his wood stove in his shop very warm in there. i took food up to my attic for those mice up there and i got water bowls down been setting live traps getting them out got some holdouts  they are smart enough to get in and get back out. so i will have to set them live traps and keep going up and down those stairs and try to catch them i will duct tape up one side so they can only go out one side. but not today got to much other stuff to keep going up and down the stairs.

i forgot black list last night but i checked and it is recorded! :) reading frank just forgot

hi jewelies it is 32 here 52 in the barn two raccoons and a mooey cow behind the cedars behind my propane tank. mooey will have to wait till its light out. moon is out but still too dark back there. i hope dr rogers date night means watching nature with just them i am sure it does. i just saw on the news NFL is going on schedule fans or no fans in the stands. i would guess all players and staff test for ykw cause that would be a weird football staying 6 ft apart lots of tds. no one getting hurt

Good morning everyone-  40 here and no wind. Yesterday it took a long time to warm up but it was 55 in the afternoon. In the morning I was in the attic trying to put stuff back after hubby did electrical outlets. I put all construction stuff in one corner and would like to haul stuff he is done with out. That would give me more room.
It is a mess- hubby never throws anything away and never puts anything away. I grew up in a house where everything had a place and it was put in its place. If you used something you put it right back when you were done. So it has been a challenge.

In the afternoon I worked outside- found some creeping Charlie that was blooming! I do have a few daffodils blooming. They are very beautiful- yellow and white. Next week should be quite warm so maybe i'll get to get my hands dirty. Yay!

I've been watching Decorah waiting to see the eggs and maybe a hatch this morning- so far Mom has been pretty stingy with peeks. Going back there now to watch. Little mouse was there for a long time before Mom woke up with a wing whap!

Have a great day jewelies!

Hi Jewelies! After 2 nice warm days, today is a bit chilly with showers. I got a lot of yard work done yesterday. I've been meaning to dig up several overgrown clumps of liriope  for  a couple years now.  Yesterday was the day! I have a huge trash bag full. I hope my sister wants some. Yesterday morning she dropped off a bag of rain lily bulbs! She remembered that I liked hers so she ordered me some! She treats me well!  I was so tired last night that I slept very well until Boo wanted to go out at 4 am to potty. After he came back in, I fell back to sleep and didn't get up until 8am!

Cal, Blacklist was funny with that little guy! Our Walmart started doing that  yesterday. I'm going to need some things in the next couple days so I guess I'll get in line with everyone else! Robin said we should order online and pick it up. Maybe so. Our governor wants everyone to wear masks like the surgeon general suggests. I watched his video that shows how to make one with a hanky or a piece of cloth with no sewing. Pretty simple, even I can make it! My older sis wanted me to call younger sis and ask her to make us a couple masks. Younger sis likes to sew and she has bolts of fabric. I may call her later.  Hope you can get Smokey fixed! Funny you mentioned candy crush! It just recently started popping up on my cell phone! I don't know why! Thanks for the video!

Lupe, you have some nice neighbors! This morning we had cinnamon rolls but ours came from a Pillsbury can! Bet yours tasted better!

Ra, thanks for your video, too!

Jo, lots of beautiful daffodils! They make me happy! Hope Joan is having a nice day!

Have a nice day! Stay safe!

Last week Bill Withers passed away. He was born in Slab Creek, WV in 1938. His father was a coal miner. He was raised in Beckley, WV. Since his passing stations have been playing his songs. Here's one that is appropriate for the time we are living in...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkaexjc-1os

Hi Jewelies!   Nice weekend here, except for all the pollen!  Yesterday Clemson grand came over and we took a walk on the land behind my house, it's wooded, then turns into a nice and grassy quiet space.  We surprised the little bull!!  He was just hanging out all by himself, and probably wondered what we doing in his spot!  lol  He went and hid behind some bushes, we knew where he was, and we walked closer and closer... he finally moved, and we got a good look at him.  He's quite small, black, and has little short legs.  At first my grand thought he was a pony, he's so small.  The tracks around in the grass were definitely cow tracks though.  At least he has lots of grass to eat. It's no wonder nobody can catch him to take him home though.

cal... I saw that Sammy was staying with the Chiefs.  I'm glad.  Surprised they're planning on playing in an empty stadium if they have to.  I can't believe how much they get paid!!  How's Missy doing?   It's so funny to see the little mink stepping inside the window to get it's treats!  They're just so cute!!

rues... I've got some rain lilies, too!  I love them!  they're so pretty!  I also have some tiny little bulb flowers that are just now finishing blooming, but I have no idea what they are.  The plants are short, and the flowers are white with 5 or 6 petals and when they're almost done blooming, they turn kinda lavender.  Any ideas?

lupine... Our governor doesn't want to make the whole state stay at home, too.  Tomorrow my daughter is going shopping for groceries for her dad, for herself, and 3 things I need.  She's taking her husband to help her.  Going really early in the morning.  I hope they can find everything ok. I'm wondering if my local nursery is closed... I guess they're not an essential business... except at this time of year!  I might have to get my annuals from the grocery store this year.  I hear Lowe's is jammed with people... sounds like a good place to stay away from.

joho... It's good to hear from you, letting us know how you and Joan are doing.  Yes, the staying at home is hard on most people.  Just knowing you can't go,makes you want to go even more, doesn't it?

Time for American Idol... Hope you all have a good evening!
