Where my son works the to-go pre-orders for Hot Wings for the Super Bowl is 18,000. That doesn't include the orders for people who eat at Moosehead while they watch the game.

🎵 It's a Carolina Victory...🎵

Wow. The Tarheel players never gave up & won the game against Duke in the last second. I AM SOOO HAPPY.

I asked my son if the restaurant where he works has started taking pre-orders for Hot Wings for the Super Bowl. He told me they started getting pre-orders 2 weeks ago. I'm curious about how many thousands of hot wings they'll sell this year.

DOG OWNERS: Please tell me what brand of dog food you feed your dog. Daken is really picky about food. He refused to eat Blue Buffalo. He quit eating Purina Pro Plan. I switched to Hills Science Diet & now he's not happy with that. I tried canned food, he ate it twice & quit. HELP!!!!

I've read all of these books, and they are worth your time.

This is brilliant. I'm so grateful for this testimony. I've transcribed it to use in letters I'm writing. Sharing the full transcription here (see alt text to copy/paste it):

Do any of you get spam email about your AT&T account or your iCloud account or any other account that you DON'T have? I get at least 2 emails about nonexistent accounts every day recently. I just delete them, but it is annoying.

We got at least 9 inches of snow yesterday. Today the sun is shining, icicles are hanging from the eaves, & snow is blowing off the shed and the roof. I’m thankful that our power stayed on.

Both of North Carolina's Senators voted against the DHS funding bill. 👏 Sen. Tillis is retiring when his term ends in Jan. 2027, so not surprised he voted NO. I was surprised that Sen. Budd voted NO. Proof that some members of GOP are not happy with what ICE is doing.
IMPEACH TRUMP!!

Tried to take Daken out. He took 2 steps into the sleet & went right back inside. I left him inside & de-iced the car's windows. When I came back in, I tried to take Daken out again. He took two steps into the ice, relieved his bladder & came right back into the house. 😆

Apparently Daken knew when the sleet was going to start. We usually go out around 7:30 or 8 pm. At 7pm he got up in my face with his "I gotta go out face". We were on our way back in, when the sleet started. 🤔 Smart dog.

There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
A-telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down

We're going to get at least a 1/4 inch of sleet, maybe more. Say a prayer that I don't lose electricity or my water pipes freeze. I'm as prepared as I can be. The last time we had a really bad winter storm was 2002 & my husband was still alive. He kept me warm. 😉

An Ice Storm is headed our way & it's probably going to knock out electricity. I have charged 2 power banks & 3 USB lights. We have flashlights. Thermostat is set at 68°F in hopes that it can delay house getting too cold inside. 🤞 Still have access to staying at son's work & they have a generator.

Today I'm calling our dog by his nickname, Daken the Destroyer. I got him a new plushy. He tried to tear its head off today. I sewed it back together & he's having a hard time tearing my seam apart. My hand-sewing is stronger than the original stitches. I like that cute stuffed cat.

I was watching 9-1-1: Nashville for the first time & now the last time. I was working at the hospital the night Hurricane Hugo made a mess of Charlotte. The back-up generator blipped off & on. The medical staff didn't try to fix it, guys who knew what they were doing took care of it. 🙄

If a Democratic president had done something like this, Fox and the GOP would have turned Adriana Camberos into a household name à la Willie Horton or, yes, Hunter Biden.

Is anyone else having problems with opening #Yahoo? In Firefox I get an error screen & it wants me to unblock something that seems sketchy. I've never needed to allow the .com site that is in the "error-report. If I open Yahoo in Safari, it works fine.

The monks haven't gotten to my house yet, BUT there are a lot more people walking by the house than usual. Daken is going nuts!! I'll put him in his crate soon, because we have a 5pm appointment tonight.

To date, federal funding has covered only about 12% of the total damage Hurricane Helene caused, far less than after other major storms. It’s time for Congress to give western North Carolina its fair share.

A group of Buddhist Monks are doing a "Walk for Peace." They are entering Charlotte today. My daughter just let me know that the Monks will be spending the night at Marion Diehl Recreation Center. It's 2 blocks from my house. I wonder if they'll walk down the sidewalk in front of my house.

I was going to make dinner, but there is a 70 pound dog sleeping in my lap.

My credit card gives me 3% cash back & I MADE $230 IN 2025. That happened because I buy my groceries with my credit card & I PAY MY CREDIT CARD BALANCE EVERY MONTH. I don't pay any interest, since I don't carry a balance. $230 is more than 2 weeks worth of groceries. Maybe you can do it too.
