What Pleased You Today!

[Ramfins59]

I wish that there was a White Castle near me... I love those belly-bombs..!!!  Haven't had "fresh ones" since I went to NNL East 2 years ago...☹️  I can even enjoy the frozen ones sometimes...?

[cobraman]

I find the frozen ones tricky to get just right. Glad to have one close to me now. I will probably only go 3 or 4 times a year. When I lived in Chicago many, many years ago they were the only place open when the bars closed or sometimes when the last movie played at the drive in.

Ever notice White Castle is decorated in small white bathroom tile? No coincidence!

No white tile to be found in the new one in Scottsdale,

Beautiful sunny day and my Jeep hit 50k miles...not bad for a 2014 (it had 25k when I bought it 3 1/2 years ago).

What pleased me today was my truck made it to 18 years old ! I bought this 2002 F 150 True Blue Supercrew in December of 2001 . It’s been a good truck but is starting to show it’s age . 111,000 miles on it .

Weighed myself for a telemed Doctor appointment today, I’m down another 17lbs from the September appointment I had in person, down 53lbs since 12/26/19, and 67lbs from my heaviest!

Great weight loss. I'm struggling a bit with that myself. Put on a little since this virus BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH.

Still looks good. Have you priced a new one ?  You might want to consider what it would cost to fix any little ills with this as apposed to buying a new truck.

Yes, my father always said that you don’t have car payments, so if you need to pay for a repair it’s like making a one time payment!

[cobraman]

I plan on keeping this truck. Payments on a new one would probably match my house payment . ?

Ebay getting my money back from a scam seller. I'll always look at feed back on a seller before I bid on or do a Buy It.

Another victim of the pandemic is pet pics w/Santa.  My teenager and I did them the last couple years for one of the local rescues (from which we have a dog) at one of the chain pet store, but they aren't doing them this year.  My oldest has a four month old Golden Retriever that I was determined to find one that Santa wasn't behind the sneeze guard like the salad bar.  Thank you small town America as we found one this a.m.

The Grinch really ? The pup isn't even going for it either.

She is four months old and wanted to play with everyone that passed.   Mrs. Claus said she would be a good "Max' for the Grinch!

Mom & Pop hardware stores! 

The wife bought a dining room cabinet from a local auction site but the hardware was missing.  She called the manufacturer who sent her the wrong parts.  She went to a big box hardware store who didn't carry what was needed (the screws are metric and go into a device buried in the hole to lock them in place).....and we don't need a box of hundred (need 30 of one and six of another).  I took the instructions with the parts call out to that store.  They said it would be a couple weeks (no problem...it's been sitting unassembled for 'a while').  They called Monday and the wife has been assembling it this weekend.

Gotta stop some place and get those guys a gift card for helping end the nightmare.

SNOW! I saw some complaints on the subject over in the "Irks" department, so just to be contrary, I'm posting this. We got 6 inches or so yesterday and last night. It's beautiful!

I plowed the driveway this morning. I already had the plow on the F250, so I just drove down to the end of the driveway, turned around and came back.

Yes, I know I'm spoiled!

I love snow also. You must live in the snowy part of VA. I live along the rain/snow line, about 20 minutes south of Richmond. We hardly ever see snow anymore.

I'm not in the "snowiest" part of VA. I'm about 8 miles from the WV line, about the same to Maryland. We don't get near the snow we used to get, so I enjoy it even more.

Yeah, we used to get at least 1 snowfall a year of a foot or more when I was growing up. Seems like sometime around the year 2000 it just stopped doing much of anything. Lucky to get 4 inches now.

Ah, the good ol' days. Seems like we used to get at least a few "snow days" off from school every year. We'd be outside most of the day, sledding, building snow forts, having snow ball wars. We'd be cold, wet, and tired, and loved every minute of it.
