Why does chili get even better after the first night you serve it. Had some leftovers tonight and it was NOTHING but better than the day I cooked it.. From the sounds of it I won't be sampling Skyline chili any time soon.. :1rotfl:

In my house if any of the kids ever criticized the meal it wasn't good. The pickiest eaters on earth. Only a Mothers love which men think they can understand but truly have no clue about could endure such criticism. It hurt her but she never came back at any of them. I would have said something unkind, very unkind. Not my wife. An angel walking the face of the earth. (As long as I get the dog) Woof! Talk to yous tomorrow night.:pray::pray::pray: |

Good morning all you Sweet Nothings. It's a total deluge out there - it's been raining really hard for several hours now but at least it's not a hurricane. Those things really scare me.
I guess everyone is sleeping in again this morning. I logged in and there was not even 1 new post anywhere on this forum. |

I'm gonna miss you all but will check in at night after we put in a good day. Peace to everyone and don't do NOTHING I wouldn't do until I get back. Peace Out! :) :pray: |

It's Thursday, December 20th, and it's supposed to be a bright sun shiny day here with clouds moving in tomorrow..........and then the rain (not to be confused with snow :icon_wink:). |

Lots of new movies opening tomorrow and many of them I want to see are at the Rialto and only at the Rialto. That was the only theater open when we moved here in June of 2005. The Old Mill Playhouse opened its doors around November of 2005. |
Picked up a copy of the Lee Child book 61 Hours as it was the first one of his books I had read and it got me hooked on Jack Reacher stories. A bunch of people at Doggie Doo Run Run were talking about how good his books were around 2011 and I decided I better get one of them. They had really liked 61 Hours. Holly, Whit, Twila, Jane, Ed, Bill, Bob, etc. all got into discussing the merits of his books. Too bad so many of the people you meet in the Villages pass of various diseases. So many friends lost. Some of these names as well.
Decided to read it again even if I am starting to get a little pressed for time. And not for NOTHING. I often wonder if we can read books in heaven or see the latest movies? MercyMe - I Can Only Imagine (The Movie Session - Official Music Video) - YouTube |

I got up in the middle of the night - saw no new posts, saw the rain and then saw the bed. I didn't plan to re-sleep until now. (I don't think you can call it a nap.) LOL half the day is gone! :MOJE_whot: |
Many, many years ago I read a study on a group of Proofreaders whereby they were given days of work to proof that had NO errors. They showed that the error free work produced far more stress than work that had errors for them to correct.
Also many, many years ago, I received a resume from a person who, in the body of the cover letter, said he was looking for a job as a Prufreader! I saved that letter in my file called nothing but "Memorable Resumes". |

I cannot get to rereading 61 Hours until after I have read Simon Scarrow's new book The Blood of Rome. This is a Macro and Cato adventure. Stories of two Roman legionnaires in the period around 42 AD to 55 AD, so far. The times under the Roman Emperors Claudius and Nero. You can get books sent almost any where in the world for free on Book Depository where I get these books shipped from Great Britain at quite a deep discount. And not for NOTHING as I like saving money.
After I read it I send them to my older brother who also likes stories of ancient Rome. He has actually been touring Rome a few times. Me, I still do not even have a passport. Just been to Canada and Mexico and perhaps 42 of the US states. |

I have only seen NYC from a distance but never been there. :( My older brother was in NYC a few months ago to meet with a bunch of possible publishers of his book but he has yet to find one. They have some kind of meeting of potential selling writers getting together with publishing houses in the Summers. Something some of the budding writers here in the Villages or nearby might want to look into. Lots of writers in my family. It seems to be a family addiction. |

Scarrow also wrote a series on Napoleon and Wellington. Have not read any of these Wellington books though. B&N Store & Event Locator The Villages' Barnes and Noble has a really cool store number. 2264. |
Wind may pick up soon here in the Villages. Did clean yard of debris but will have to pray that the neighbors' junk does not come our way. Hope it is NOTHING to worry about.

I have the other package of Skyline in the freezer. I didn't throw it out because I promised GG that I would try it again but doctored with onions, and beans and cheddar cheese, etc. (It seems to defeat the purpose of buying a frozen food). But I can not bear the possible chance of ruining a nice homemade Chili so it will have to wait for nothing but another time (maybe). |
