A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffee House 2519

G'nite..I am off to sleep.

I wish everyone a good night's sleep.

I too am heading for bed. Someone put the coffee on for me in the morning. Please!

Next time you are out, look for a Mr. Coffee that is programmable, Tina. They are very reasonable. I fix mine up every night.
Then Rod has hot coffee ready when he wakes up.

No, I have a Bunn pot, 2 minute pot of coffee, and a Kuerig for a cup at a time. But I don't like the kilowatts that they pull. So I do one cup at a time with coffee bags, like tea bags but coffee. If I need a bigger amount, I have a French press. Much cheaper and faster than any pot of coffee. And better, too. I'm good. I was just saying....
Going to bed for real this time. Sweet dreams.

Junie, every time I hear lemon chicken I think of Everybody Loves Raymond. That was the only thing Debra could cook and Ray was sick of it. :) I've never tried it.

Colt's Elf was hanging in their Christmas tree today. Colt gets furious at that Elf.

Good morning.
Why was Colt mad a the elf, Sheri?
I wish I could sleep a solid eight hours. But I seem to have a 6 hour bladder and then I'm up for awhile. If I do go back to bed, it messes with my dreams and such. I need to find my happy place. I'll work on it.
Today I need to go out for a bit. I'll take care of business.
I hope all have a great day.

Yes, why does Colt not like the Elf ??

I have about a 4 hr. bladder that can be stretched to a 6...I do not mind getting ujp to use the bathroom, but I then usually cannot go back to sleep.

Sheri, I would not have ever made the lemon chicken, from just reading the recipe. however my DD made it when Rod came out to VA to pick me up. he loved it so I got the recipe.
it is a good dish...but I made the plain Lemon chicken, not the one with dill.

It is good, but a agree with my DD. One needs to shred the meat on their plate and then add some of the "broth" from the slow cooker.

Tina, the BBQ chicken made from the left over chicken would have been good IF I had of used BBQ sauce and not Manwich. The Manwich was too tangy for the chicken. And I drained the juice from the meat, so it was not that flavor--it was definitely the Manwich flavor---good with beef but chicken not so much.

Off to begin my day..I wish you all a good day.

Gee has everyone been & are still Christmas Shopping ????

No, I did do a little Christmas shopping this morning. But mostly regular food shopping. I've spent the day cleaning and napping.

Well good for you...I am glad that you got a nap in, I think those are so wonderful.

I spent part of the afternoon with my sister & my cousin. It was a good time.

Washing clothes and taking care of bookwork tonight.

Well, between phone calls and stuff. I only got a few minutes of real sleep. And I'm feeling the lack now. I think I'll be going to bed early-ish.
Sweet dreams all.

Lost power for 31 hours....just got it back. Back soon.

Welcome back, Sunny.

I wondered where Sunny was but then I figured too what had happened.

I too am glad that you have your power back, Sunny.

a trip with DH to Wally World is in order today.

I wish you all a good day.

I am soon going to bed..

sweet dreams

I am heading to bed also. I really want the winds to settle down outside because I have to crawl on the roof and clean it off. But if I go up in 80 mph winds, I'll get blown off. It's a single story but it's a long step down.
Sweet dreams all.

Keep safe Tina.

Our weather has been awful, we lost power and got it back, then lost it again.Trees broke on a lot of power lines. I had to pack my deep freezer with snow to save my items.

Praying today goes well.

Good morning.
I hope your power remains on now, Sunny.
I have laundry to do today. And getting my son bathed and things. It's going to be glorious sleeping on clean bedding tonight.
It's kind of sad though, waking up looking forward to bed time. Isn't it?
I hope everyone has a good day.

Naw, waking up & looking forward to bedtime is not sad...(at least I do not think so)

Sorry for the frequent power loss, Sunny. But hey, at least it is in Winter----this way you have the snow & ice & cold temps to help you with your food. I thought as long as you do not open a chest freezer, it should keep the food safe for 24 hours>>>But then I guess that you had power loss for longer than that??

I do not have a frost free chest freezer. I can promise you THAT will never happen again. The good news is as long as I keep the "button" that is inside the freezer frost free, I am good to go.

I slept 8 hours last night...so of course, now, I am wide awake---- I hope to get sleepy soon.\

I will say goodnight, for incase I do not get back in .

Sweet Dreams

I got a lot done today. Just not everything that I wanted to do. But I'm exhausted. It's almost bedtime. Sweet dreams all.

Good morning.

We got our tree and put it up Saturday night....GG decorated it Sunday morning.

Then I also took the kids to a b-day party yesterday...they had fun. G-boy is twice the size of all the kids his age...feature wise as well. I think he is going to be a big man like his father was.

Today will be a laundry day.

Good morning. I am up. I am not sure how I am feeling yet. I slept more than 7 hours and it feels odd. Coffee will help, I'm sure.

How fun for you, Sunny. A birthday party with lots of friends is good.

Off to get coffee and try to wake up for real.
May each of you have a blessed day.

Aw, a birthday party..how nice..and to watch your GG decorate the tree, what fun !!!

I looked out the window when we were eating lunch out yesterday & saw a front loader...so of course I immediately thought of my oldest grandson & it was hard not to cry.

Today are a few errands for me, a trip to the Post Office, and I have to take my Mother to a Drs. appt. It seems it is always something.

I wish you all a wonderful day as well.

Sweet dreams all. I'm crawling towards my bed.

I too will be going to sleep as soon as the dryer is done with it's current load.

sleep tight everyone.

Good morning.

Today we have a rescheduled appt. with a physiotherapist for Grandboy. Apparently, calling and demanding a new one works.

The cold weather is creeping in, brrrr.

Have a good one today.

Good morning. I am waking slowly and I am moving slowly too. The damp moved into the area and into my bones. But not rain. Just cold humidity.
I am glad you got an appointment, Sunny.
I hope all have a good day.

Tina, Colt gets mad at the Elf because the Elf is always doing something wrong or messing up his toys or causing Christmas tree ornaments to fall off the tree. That Elf is very active and aggravating.

Sunny, 31 hours without power. Guess you have a fireplace or wood stove.

Junie, so 8 hours of sleep is a good thing. Right? Hope you were able to sleep last night.

We're getting a lot of rain. I'm trying not to complain about it because you all know we need it desperately.

Did I tell you that Colby joined the swim team? His lungs are up to 70% and I'm hoping swimming will help him further. He can live fine with 70% but sports will be an issue. Anyway, Shelley joined my gym so he can practice in the pool and I met Shelley to work out after she dropped the gang off at school. Neither of us has worked out since March 29th when Colby went to the hospital but today we're physically fit.

That's awesome, Sheri. Good for him trying.
And I'm happy for your rain too.

Sweet dreams all.
I hope Carol's all right.

Yes, Carol is alright...Ceramics today then I went with my DH to get some lab work done. When I got home I washed dishes & then wrote out some Christmas cards...mind you I messed up more than I wrote...

But, hey IF I do a few every night, eventually I will get them all done, right ????

It is once again LATE when I am going to bed--good news is I do not have to get up early tomorrow morning ..so IF I can I will be sleeping in....

Sweet Dreams to you all !!

Swimming is the best exercise for breathing issues..it helped a little boy in our family get back the full function of his diaphragm after it was left partially paralyzed after heart surgery.

Well grandboy will go bare feet for three more months then get his boot fitting in March. He is improving slowly but surely.

Today I am making egg rolls, pizza rolls, taco and donair rolls. It will be a long day.

Good morning.
I wish you could send samples of those rolls around the internet, Sunny. I'm pretty sure I would be a regular paying customer.
Am very glad you got your ceramics time in, Carol. That gives me happy feelings every Tuesday.
I have to go out this morning. Something I've talked about but put off. Now I am out of bananas and that is important. It is just about the only fruit Teddy eats. Well, the only naked fruit or vegetable he eats without a lot of work and processing. So out I go.
I hope everyone has a good day.

Yes thanks Tina--I had a good day. I think going there helps me get thru my week.

Sunny--glad you finally got grand baby in to see the Dr. I had those issues with both my girls as well. Hoping the issue resolves itself quickly.

and I agree with Tina---perhaps you should open a mail order shop....those rolls sure sound good.


off to get more Christmas done---supper in the slow cooker, so I am good.

I did my grocery shopping. I've got to go out again tomorrow to get some of the things not available at my grocers. It was a good day.

I came in I read all the posts & I answered you, ALL..and now it is not here.

anyway, Sunny, I agree with Tina--those rolls sound yummy. You should open a mail order backery....you could make a fortune.

I am headed to bed now..catch everyone tomorrow.

It is there, Carol.
Sweet dreams all.

I'll add you all to the list of people asking me to cook for them....my nephew was in the other day begging me to cook extra and sell to them. Honestly, here it is not worth the few extra dollars...the supplies cost too much here for what a person could charge.

I only made half the amount from last year. Mind you, I still made 120 rolls in total. Next chore is the baking...tomorrow I hope.

Today shall be a day of cleaning and mopping...and I still need to get to the mail by tomorrow to mail cards and packages as well.
