I couldn't make it through the whole Patriots game again yesterday. I decided to take a nap around the same time Tom Brady decided he was done for the day because the team was up by 21 points.

I cooked the chicken, but didn't make the soup yesterday. I'm not surprised. I'll get to that at some point today so we'll have it for dinner. The filet mignon I made for dinner came out great, but (of course) dinner was later than I anticipated. I need to start cooking everything at least 15 minutes earlier now. On the off chance dinner is ready early, it's early.

I went to bed later than usual last night, and actually slept in past 7am this morning. Last night I was dead-set on getting something done first thing, but for the life of me I can't remember what the hell it was now. So frustrating.

The Patriots have had some big wins this year, but they've had some real squeakers, too.

During the regular season, unless you have satellite TV or a special cable sports package, you can usually only see your local teams play, with the exception of featured games aired a couple times a week (on Monday Night Football, etc).

The regular season just ended. The playoff games start this weekend, and you'll be able to watch them all. The Patriots won their division, so they will have this weekend off, and won't play again until Saturday the 14th.

I love, love, love football
I would watch all the playoff games, but my husband is really only interested in watching the Patriots games. I may be able to get him to watch a game this weekend if he's in the right mood, and if I'm lucky.


I took my time and the soup came out great! My husband wasn't thrilled that I chose to use rice vs. pasta, but he got his way last time, so I made it to my liking yesterday.

Pop Tarts came out with limited edition Dunkin Donuts Chocolate Mocha and Vanilla Latte flavors, and I bought a small box of each the last time I shopped in lieu of my usuals. What a mistake! They're gross!!! I threw them out because they're inedible. I have no idea exactly what it is about them, but I'm obsessed with Pop Tarts. I've been without them for two days, and I'm going to have to go out and buy a box today.

thanks about the football. the pop tarts sound gross. I wonder who eats those

[Dmom3005]

Heehee, I eat pop tarts. Just one or two kinds. And then my grandkids do.

Its more an kids food.

I watched the colts play. Thought they weren't going to show up for Mathis's last
game. THey did and won. Wow,

The Feliway spray arrived yesterday, but I'm still waiting on the diffuser. I'm going to spray the couches and the box spring this morning. One thing I didn't think about it is that we have an air purifier in the living room now… I hope that it doesn't suck up all the pheromones from the spray.

I didn't get started on the large scratching post yesterday, but the kitties are really enjoying the smaller one I did fix. They scratch the scratching posts more after I clip their nails.

I have a form of Asthma that is coughing mainly. I use an nebulizer when
it gets bad. I have been having much better years for a while now.

Also I have shortness of breath for many years now. But never found a reason.
Did testing for COPD and it wasn't that. But its worse for me during the winter
usually.

Thank you Donna

That could definitely be what's going on.

I have no expectation of when I'll hear back from my doctor's office. I'm less worried about my results because of what the respiratory therapist said following my test. Now I hope he sends me back to test me for asthma though.

I'm going to try to quit smoking again by going back to the e-cigarette when I finish this carton.


Dottie woke me up at 2:30am when she knocked over the glass of water that was on my nightstand. The water fell into my purse, which was next to the bed. So, I was up in the wee hours trying to deal with that mess.
I woke up again around 6 to several spots of cat puke. So, right now I'm not exactly thrilled with my cats.

I sprayed the Feliway on the box spring and all the spots on the couch and loveseat they like to scratch. The smell of the spray didn't bother them at all. I haven't seen them scratching at anything, but that's just a coincidence at this point since Feliway doesn't work that fast.


I really wanted today to be a day where I didn't have to go anywhere...

But we may or may not have a snow storm tomorrow into Sunday morning that will dump 5-8" on us, and that will interfere with my plans to go grocery shopping this weekend. I'll have to shop for at least a couple of days today and we're having snow flurries.

I'm getting really tired of the The Weather Channel app's lousy weather forecasts. They change frequently, and are often wrong. I depend on them to prepare for when I should and shouldn't go out...

sorry for the cats behavior. maybe the spray will work.
sorry you had to get up early. Our bedroom is a no cat zone.
good luck to day and be safe as you venture out doors.
it is 37 here and supposed to get into the 20's tonight.....
the house feels warm this morning.
must get going....

Grocery shopping was entertaining yesterday... the woman in the checkout line in front of me was lip syncing and gesturing to the music they were playing in the store and she was really into it!!! I had to put my head down and stop watching so I didn't burst out laughing! It was the wildest thing I've ever seen!!!

We got a dusting of unexpected snow last night, and we are supposed to get some precipitation from the storm in the area today, but the forecasts about how much keep changing. It seems like we'll be getting at least 4", but I'd hardly call that a storm. High temps will be in the low 20s for the next couple of days, with the lows in the single digits. I'm hoping I don't have to go anywhere until my pdoc appointment on Wednesday.

I'm going to work on the second scratching post today. I'm hoping it's not going to be as difficult as I think it is. I'm going to force myself to finish it today no matter how long it takes. Maybe my husband will have some tips that will help make doing this one easier than the last one.
