Good morning! I woke up to temps in the 60’s and within a couple hours it’s dropped in the 40’s. Steady decline into mid 20’s overnight. I went out and put the jackets on my horses and brought my big dogs in. Already turned off the water to the shop and horse stalls in anticipation of the freeze. Just me and my son home this weekend and he’s still sleeping in.. (it’s just now 8am here) lazy day ahead!!!

A perfect kind of day. Hope you had a good weekend.

Nice red Indian River grapefruit, a few celery stalks, a cup of spinach, a cup of kale, a handful of almonds, chia seeds, hemp seeds, a scoop of chorella, turmeric and moringa, and some fresh cold water. Three minutes or so of swishing in the NutriBullet and BAM!, my morning drink is done!

Anyone else juice or smoothie their meals?

That’s for Sully, right?? o_O :confused: [emoji33]

Hi[emoji1309]
My name is Kathy.
I am a lipstick hoarder.
I’m not sure when it all started.
It doesn’t run in our family.
I started out buying one, once every couple of months to almost weekly or so.

I love my lipstick. It makes me feel puurty.[emoji182][emoji105][emoji168]

Welcome, Kathy! How brave of you to show your true colors... [emoji6] Beautiful! [emoji8]

While getting Sully some dandelion and cactus pads, i picked up a few bunches of fresh crinkly kale and a bag of Moringa powder. Must be a new item since this was a first time seeing moringa at this store.

Moringa - The most widely cultivated species is Moringa oleifera, native to the foothills of the Himalayas in northwestern India[4], a multipurpose treecultivated throughout the tropics and marketed as a superfood, health food, and medicinal plant

It mixes in nicely to your drinks. Good way to get some other nutrients into your body.

Phew. I knew it was for Sully! [emoji23][emoji23]

Hi Carol, yes I was kidnapped by the kids; neither the school nor my family would pay the ransom so they released me because I kept nagging the kidnappers about their homework.;)
All OK with me just had a busy couple of weeks in work and even the last 2 weekends have been hectic.
I went to a party in Southsea which is on the south coast of the UK for the first and had a few birthday celebrations with family and friends last weekend, so when I've not been working I've been catching up with my sleep.
I hope everyone in the CDR is well, I caught up last weekend but didn't have time to post, and there have been a heck of a lot of posts since then.
I'll speak to you soon.

Glad the kidnappers are free now [emoji23] Lovely to not see you, Lyn!

My blender is just used to grind up Lola's dried grass so I can sprinkle it on his food.
Between the bright light, high temps, silver insulation and a blender full of dried grass in my kitchen it's a wonder I haven't been raided by the drugs squads yet!

My stupid imagination brings up the idea of TORTure... [emoji33][emoji33]

Silly me. . . I just watched a video on Google on how to set a mousetrap, and I did it all wrong. But now I've got the scoop, I'll set them again this a.m.

I guess Tony the Tiger is of little use there?

It just poured down rain I guess for tomorrow’s 7 degree day. I’m ready to slip on the ice, anybody else?

I am closely related to a tortoise because I hate cold. Anything under 68 is my no-comfort zone!

Welcome to the CDR. It’s cold in here, but at least not slippery.

One could, potentially, trip over a hedgehog, but if you polish the flying jellyfish, they give off enough glow for us to vaguely see where we step.

Still it’s safer to just sit on one of our comfortable armadillos. Tea or coffee? :)

Carving more is easier and cheaper and more realistic. But, spending a few weeks in an Austrian village and carving and exploring and hiking about would be fun. Then i could add that to my carving CV.

I suppose a carving CV shouldn’t be printed on paper?
An Austrian village sounds romantic. Which option does your wifey prefer?
