Worked on and sent out the last bunch of tax organizers and the last online portal link today. There are about 3 left who either haven’t paid me yet for last year, or ones I hope don’t come back. Then worked on two different business tax returns and sent out some follow-up questions. Refilled the squirrel/bird feeders. Made DH’s favorite rice and hamburger dish tonight! We had held off because the diet thy originally gave him did not mention rice, so we were cautious, but his periodontist told him Wednesday that rice was fine. Temps today 34 to 56 and… Read more »

Busy day. DH must have really enjoyed his favorite rice and hamburger dish. (what else is in this favorite dish?)
I am thinking of making orange chicken with rice one of these days….using orange marmalade.
Enjoy the nice weather while it lasts.

It is rice, hamburger, cream of chicken soup, and cream of mushroom soup all mixed together in a skillet on the stove. We also now add riced cauliflower so he can eat more with less calories. 😀 Nothing fancy, but he loves it.

Chris, So glad DH is finally getting to eat ‘almost’ real food again — he must’ve really enjoyed his favorite meal. 😋

Up early for no reason whatsoever 😏 More Olympic-watching today. ⛷ Got to 68 degrees.😏 We won’t get any snow, but the mountains are supposed to get 10-20 inches over the next few days. It won’t be enough to save the season nor fill the reservoirs, unless it snows every day for the next several weeks. It could be a very fire-filled summer 😔

😄 I always liked black cats….would not consider them bad luck.
I hope you get more rain or snow to help with the fire season ahead.

Hello…DH has off today, Friday and Monday..today for LIncoln’s birthday, tomorrow a vacation day, Monday Presidents’ day…thought maybe we could do something later, restaurant or store but there’s a water leak at his rentals (happens often) so he left to check it out.
Going to find some lunch and feed the pups now.

Maybe you can do something at least one of those days. But it often happens that these things come up when we have time off.

Good morning 💙 A little sun with a high temperature of 35°. The snowcrete is showing up on radar as snow showers. 🙄 This snow on the ground will be here for several more weeks. It is like an Arctic rock.
Walmart order arrives this morning.
Tuna surprise rolls for dinner. (remember them from school hot lunch menu?) Like a tuna melt with diced green pepper on a opened faced hot dog roll. Baked in oven for about 10 minutes.
Have a peaceful day.

The green peppers add a little zip.😋..making them different from a regular tuna melt.
(You par boil the green pepper until soft)

Met with my friends for Coffee and Bible. One was missing, and we had so much to talk about to bring each other up to date and share prayer requests, we never got to the Bible today. Then off to Wild Birds Unlimited and the post office. Home to work on a tax return I thought I could finish, but ended up sending off some questions to the client. Sent some emails to clients, and printed an organizer to send out tomorrow. Ordered birthday gifts to be delivered to DB as well as sent out a card. DH packed up… Read more »
