Making up the menu for Christmas dinner for the last couple of days. I am responsible for homemade mac and cheese, lasagna and cake. I had won a turkey at Thanksgiving and saved it for Christmas. There will be sweet potato casserole, stuffing, dinner rolls, gravy and mashed potatoes.

Thanks for the concern folks...feels good to be missed! Doing well, and taking it easy. Feels like I'm playing hooky, because I feel soooo well!!

Spent last night watching a movie with the wife. Drank a 6 pack of beer in the same night for the first time in over a year. Got up early this morning and took the wife's car for an oil change.

Right now, the kids and I are watching Calliou on Sprout. :gah:

Good to hear from you ! Glad it is going so well.
My wife had her gall bladder removed the OLD way many years ago. Was in the hospital for a week . Looked like death warmed over.

A 6 pack and a movie at home. You're a cheap date. :clapping:

Christmas dinner pics.
29 lasagna, 30 mac/cheese, 31 sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes and glazed carrots, 32 turkey, 33 cake, 34 ham. :clapping:

 

[BillR]

Looks good. That must have a lot of work. How many people did you feed?

Oh, don't forget dessert!

 

[trike lady]

Nice pies.
It was two days of cooking and sitting up till 4:00 am to get it done.
The turkey and ham were done on Christmas day. The dinner was for 5 people and 4 attended. I'm still cleaning up pots and pans today along with a trashed kitchen.

We tried to be smarter than the dinner...

We cleaned as we went along.

</div>I have very lazy roommates, they do more to make or leave a mess than to help clean it up. I spent my morning cleaning up the remnants of the Christmas dinner and the trashed kitchen and the kitchen is finally picked up, last thing to clean is the turkey roaster.<br />

</div>The turkey was underfed and didn't have much meat on its bones, no one touched the ham and so it will be used for sandwiches. There's a lot left over that my roommates will polish off and it should all be gone in about 2 weeks.

That is funny right there!!!

 

[consitter]

Lord forgive me, I shouldn't say that...

 

[BillR]

That's no way to start the new year.

 

[consitter]

My resolution... To make no resolutions.

 

[BillR]

I admire your resolve !

 

[consitter]

I have more than most.

 

[David357]

So the resolution, then, is for "more or less resolve"?

 

[consitter]

Yes.

Y'all ignore me. I just need to vent a minute.
The brake pads and LEDs I ordered shipped last Wednesday. They arrived at my UPS distribution center at 1 A.M Thursday morning. EXCELLENT!
UPS wouldn't deliver on New Years eve or Day, or the weekend so I'm sitting here waiting until Monday for my stuff. The distribution center is ten miles from my house and they wouldn't even let me drive over to get it. It's nobodys fault, just a timing thing with the holiday, but frustrating having to wait four days.
Thanks, I feel a little better. Continue hi-jacking.

Good am Bill,
I ordered the HD Triglide supliment manual 3 weeks ago along with two others. However the part # had ES as a sup# plus t was $20 more than the one with out the ES. No one knew what it ment. One guy said t was a better version of the original. So I ordered it. Its in SPANISH !!!
After getting a RMA and mailing it back, that cost $17, the store issued me a in house store credit of $53 . That took 10 days . Finally ordered the right one along with a dumb coffee mug just to fill the credit. To be here Tues or Wed. Total cost for a $40 manual was $87.
Only good part of winter, is timing don't matter.
whewwww the coffee is ready. :Coffee:

I don't ask...I just drive there. They always have given me whatever I went there to pick up. As long as the truck hasn't left, they're happy to give it to you. When you call, you get a call center somewhere that is programmed to just say no.
