Joe

[cherokee woman]

Joe, thank you for getting the coffee and juice ready this morning, and
for putting out the cereal.

We have been on the phone with our ISP for over an hour, close to two
hours, because we can't get into our email. Trouble with the webmail.
Hopefully, we'll be able to check emails sometime today.[V][:(!] So, if
anyone has sent us an email and looking for a reply, PLEASE bear
with us. We'll get to it as soon as we can access our emails.

[JoeKoh]

cw hopefully its a local company thats why i switched. dont like talking to someone halfway around the world.
stay safe
Joe

[cherokee woman]

Joe, this time, it did sound like an American accent. So was the supervisor
who had to call me back, in order to get our emails straightened out. So,
we are now back to normal on pulling up our email screens.

Lunch today: We'll save the turkey leftovers for supper tonight, and for lunch
we're having your choice of burgers, fries, tuna salad or ham salad sandwiches
with fries.

No leftovers here ... I'm not sure what's in the fridge though ...

I'm actually tryin' to type a paper up for class ... even though class is not for less than 2 weeks ...

I hope I can clean this up before I leave tommorrow ...

That's what happens when I don't have a laptop ... accounting said there was hardly any $$$ to get one ...

I wonder if next year this thread will double the number of pages it has now ...

Hmmm....

Matt

[Sterling1]

I nearly forgot:

I'm wondering if I should next purchase these two things:

digital camera
AND
Kato SD38-2

I have the dough but that dough ought to be going to buying college stuff ...

I fell your pain here. I know what it is like to have to do papers and other school work durring the Christmas holiday. Last year I had to finish writing my 30 page Senior Thesis paper on Advanced Locomotive Technology. That paper was a nightmare, and I really had a tuff time writing it, I got a C on it. Though I was a little bit ticked off at that considering how hard I worked, and how many sources I had to site as well as writing a works consulted page. On top of that paper last year I had to write a formal physics lab for Uniform Acceleration, for my A.P. Physics class, I did get a B on that one, so I was happy about that. Man... I'm glad I'm out of high school, but college isn't any better. lol

I hope everyon's Christmas was very nice, loving one. I also hope some people went to church too. Now, we have to look forward to New Year!! I can't wait for that one really!! 2006, yes!!!!

[railfan619]

HI everyone how was all of your holidays mine was pretty good the weather was really good no snow which is always a good thing but I kinda missed having a white christmas but we did still have a little snow left on the ground but with temps still in the upper 30's to the lower 40's and. I think by the end of the week we may not have any snow left on the ground but oh well that's really about it from this end hope everyone has a good new year if. I dont talk to you before then. [:D]

[jeaton]

We had a quiet, but nice Christmas Day. Just my wife's mother and my son in for the day. We will catch up with the rest of the family next weekend in Cincinnati. Not unusual for our familys. There have been times when our Christmas has been spread out over three or four weeks, though I guess it could be said that we are all together in spirit.

Just recieved some sad news this afternoon. Yesterday a neighbor and friend, Mark and his son Robert snowmobiling on a lake in Northern WI broke through the ice and drowned. Leaves behind his wife, a daughter and three step children. Very special family. Mark, who was deaf, taught at the Wisconsin School for the Deaf here in Delavan. His wife, who isn't hearing impaired also is a teacher at the school. Robert was adopted by them. Robert was deaf and also had a severe learning disability. Just very unfortunate.

Jay

[cherokee woman]

Jay, I'm so very sorry to hear about your friend and his son. That is very
sad. Mutt and I extend our heartfelt condolences and sympathies to you,
and to your friend's family. We will remember you all in our prayers.

[CShaveRR]

Tomorrow...oops, later today, we'll finally have all seven of my family (me, wife, two daughters, two sons-in-law, and one granddaughter) together for a belated Christmas celebration. It's granddaughter Katelyn's first birthday, but they aren't celebrating that yet. Her birthday party will be on Friday--and I can't go 'cause I have to work.

Jay, I'm so sorry to hear about your neighbors.

[cherokee woman]

Good morning, everyone! Hope all have a good day today. I get a break this
week: No Produce Day today, as the Community Center is closed this week.

Coffee and juice are ready, as well as hot chocolate/cocoa.

Breakfast this morning, pancakes and waffles with turkey bacon and sausage.
If you don't want pancakes or waffles, there is the standard sausage with
biscuits and gravy, or hot oatmeal or cream of wheat with toast.

[JoeKoh]

jay
sorry to hear about your neighboors.
cw we got some cauliflower broccoli carrots and celery for another veggie tray if you need some veggies today.unless matt used the celery with the peanut butter.
stay safe
Joe

[tree68]

Jay - Sorry about the loss. Unfortunately it seems to be all too common this time of year, and even old-timers are not immune from it.

We had a retired state trooper lose a car through the ice on the St Lawrence a couple of years ago - fortunately he survived, but still faced fines of up to $1500 a day while the car was under water...

[blhanel]

I will vouch for the ice not being safe up here, in spite of the cold weather last month. They mentioned last night on the local news that a car went through the ice on Prior Lake, which is where I'm currently posting from (the town, that is- still up here in Minnesota, heading home today). I suspect that the snow covering the ice insulated it from the cold, so it never had a chance to get thick enough to support heavy vehicles, and in some places even light vehicles like snowmobiles.

Our condolences from here, Jay. Do you know which lake they were on?

[jeaton]

Brian-Don't know for sure. It was in Vilas County near Manitowish Waters. I suspect that you have the snow issue correct. Until the current "thaw" started, we had a foot of very powdery snow. Definately slows the lake freezing process.

Jay

[mudchicken]

Jay - Not good news. Sorry to hear it, but you are not alone. Colorado just had a similar issue after warm spell here (69 degrees here yesterday - opened all the windows in the house to air it out before we become shut-in's again), lost a couple of ice fishermen and also having avalanche troubles.

BossHen headed west, her family & friends having not so happy times.

The thaw appears to be almost over and snow returning to eastern CO by week's end.

[cherokee woman]

Joe, I also have some veggies. How about I make another veggie tray, and
we'll have veggies and dip, along with some sandwiches for lunch? (Tell
Matt not to worry: I've got plenty of peanut butter for the celery.)

Since Mookie's not here, could someone give me a couple of ideas for supper
tonight?

[railfan619]

Good afternoon everyone how is we all doin today. I'm doin pretty good and my week off of work is going pretty good too. I can tell you this though I really needed the sleep because as tired as I have been but on another note how is everyone else doin this week. and there's only 5 more days of the year 2005 and then we start a brand new year and a brand new leaf but anywho hope everyone has a good day and I will be talkin to you all later. [:D][:D]

[JoeKoh]

hey CW how about we make some vegtable soup for supper? or something else light.everyone is probably still full from the weekend.
stay safe
joe

[cherokee woman]

Joe the vegetable soup is ready. Have plenty of crackers or cornbread
to go with the soup.

Hope everyone enjoys the soup.

[tree68]

CW must be sleeping in this morning. Coffee's on and I found all the usual breakfast fixin's.

Yo-Yo weather continues here - Rain Christmas Day, then down into the teens, now rain in the forecast again today. Maybe the wind vane for my weather station will thaw out. The wind has shown as coming out of the NE for three days now...

[JoeKoh]

thanks larry for getting stuff out.I need to get busy securing the 2nd track down.I got it connected and wired last night. i tell you that mow foreman is a little monster.
stay safe
Joe

[cherokee woman]

Larry, you're right: just woke up a few minutes ago. Thanks for getting
breakfast ready, and putting the coffee on. Appreciate it, very much!

Weather here: cloudy right now; supposed to rain today. Temps are
in the mid 50s. Feels like spring here, instead of winter. But I'm not
going to complain too much. Know that bitter cold temps will be
here soon.

Everyone have a good day, and I'll talk with you later.

Morning CW
Pretty quiet here in the Diner this morning. Bent over to pick up some paperwork in the office this morning, BAM popped a rib out. Went up to chiro , got it popped back in, came home, popped a Vicadin and am now on my way to LA-LA land.
So if I start getting goofier (than normal) as the day goes on, you'll know why.
Had a pretty crummy Christmas. After getting all the kids and grandkids together on Thursday night, everyone started getting the flu. Apparently one of the youngins brought it home from school. Me and Mama got it Saturday night. Down till Monday. Still pretty weak. It's a bad one. Running pretty rampant on the sandbar.
Well, I'll stop in and see what the lunch specials are if I'm not hanging from the ceiling fan by then!!!!! Willy

[Modelcar]

....Here in Muncie it's now 55 degrees and no rain yet...They indicate we may see some today but right now it's pretty bright. I was just on the phone to south Florida and our neighbor there said the temp was 65 so 10 degrees difference .
Finally we have melted all the snow that started {with 7" on Dec. 8th}, and now have bare grass....Looks unusual...but great to get rid of that other stuff.
