Eat Patty Chicken... er, chicken patties, ingest man!

Easily deluded Asia!  Easily deluded, EASILY DELUDED Asia!

And where exactly have you been, absent Commie-babe, oj huh?

Patty is not for eating. Now in a few months she will leave little nuggets of love to eat.

 

I did tell the girl she needs to stop naming the chickens after food. We had  roosters named Spicy and Cookie. The girls named after food are Nugget, Patty (yes for chicken patty), Chip (like chocolate chip) and Cream,  and Cornmeal 

 

Ok I'm going to bed before the Jedi wakes up.

If chickens aren't meant for eating, why do they taste so good, huh D ma'am?

Mornin', mostly absent Commie- and other babes with edible pets and +1 inventories!

I've had a lovely quiet day, pottering around and finding things I'd forgotten. For years, since 2003 at least, I've had belongings spread out across three countries, and it's great to have everything finally in one place.  I'm still a long way from sorted out, but I'm also in no hurry. It's cold again and will be for the next week or so, and that always makes me want to hibernate.

 

We aren't doing a thing for New Year's Eve. I hope to be long asleep by midnight. There's an online thing for Kiwi's and I'll do that, and get the new year rung in a day early:)

 

Trudi, are you feeling any better yet?  And Tbone, how's the fever?

 

 

I'm still alive and have a slightly smaller head, my eye is open ish so all good 😁

 

Finding things you'd forgotten is awesome!

 

It's rednecks birthday today, he has a bunch of friends coming to stay, yay....

Trophie you might get hypoglycemia, like me...

 

I always keep some OJ and chocolate in my fridge and my office...

 

I carry several juice boxes and food in my purse.  I have a lot of trouble with it when I'm pregnant - like a combo between low blood sugar and low BP.

1.  You might have more trouble because they'll freeze, see 2. Nola-B. ma'am.

2.  We get Wind Chill estimates perhaps once every year or two, Texas Unchilled everywhere else ridiculously frozen man.

Fotos of polar-bear brisket now, see Nola-B. ma'am.

Last decent-weather day for a while, sigh man.

Temperatures supposed to be slightly below freezing for next Many (2+2+1) nights, ridiculous man.

We blame North Dakota and Minnesnowta for this outrage -- oh, and Canadia too, grrr man.

[TBoneTX 46,063]

We got the oil changed in the T-B.-* and Mrs.-T-B.-mobiles, high time man.

We also got the tyres rotated on the Mrs.-T-B.-mobile, time too man.

We learned that GM-mobile tyres aren't supposed to be rotated criss-cross, but rather simple back-to-front, interesting man.

This is because criss-cross rotation can lead to pulling, obviously undesirable man.

 

We paid $Many ($2x2x2x2-1) for each oil-change, bring our own oil & filter man.

We paid $Many ($2x2x2x2+2+2) for the rotation, $Many ($2+2+1) per tyre man.

Accordingly, total expense for entire labor = $Many ($2x2x2x2x2+[2x2x2x2]+2), made out like bandit as usual man.

 

*2+2+1 half-of-halfs of which were Quaker State full synthetic, bought resale for us by WCG** for exactly $Many ($2+2), steal man

We replaced a corrugated plastic pipe that runs rainwater from the side of the casa to the driveway, avoid mud man.

We attached an attachment that fits over the downspout bottom and snaps into the pipe, secure fit man.

 

At hardware store where we bought the above, frantic gringos were buying foam insulation for outdoor pipes, avoid bursts man.

All faucet-covers were long-sold-out, early birds got wormed man.

We had conveniently saved last year's faucet-covers for reuse, he who laughs last laughs loudest man.

[TBoneTX 46,063]

Almost time to pick a new thread-name, innominate new thread man.

Last two choices were really lame, gag us man.

Someone creative should get the choice as in days of yore, spread the wealth man.
