We are making a buffalo pheasant dip. I use pheasant from SD in place of chicken.

I like Carolina and think they will win but I sorta kinda want Peyton Manning to win.

I got the new spindles and blades put on the riding mower today and it cuts like a new one. I am glad that I finally got that thing fixed.

I hope Manning wins too since it will probably be his last game.

Going to snuggle with the little man and watch the game. Wife is going to take a nap while she can.

Spent yesterday replacing the cooling fans on the wife's MKX. The control module went out two years ago, and had to replace the complete assembly. Now the fans went out, but the module was fine, so I joined the original fans with the newer module and saved waiting for a new one. One for the Old Man.

Tonight, just got back home from a trip to the ER, suffered an insulin reaction, and the wife had to call for the ambulance. Never made that trip before, but got to watch the game while waiting to be released. Go Denver, never have liked Newton's on field attitude.

Nice. I had sushi with the girl. Then we came back and made brownies and ****, watched some of the game, and then watched (no judgement allowed) Game of thrones. Not much watching happened. lol

Glad your ok. Some thing I've found out is cortisone shots will spike you blood sugar bad. 2 shots to the knees sent my A1C from 6 to 9

That is some nice work Jacob!!!

What game?

The GF said we might get 6" of snow out of this storm tonite/tomorow?? (she lives just across the GA/NC state line in TN) I haven't turned on a TV in a few days, but it was snowing a little this AM. The sun is out again now.

Dang Bob, Glad to hear it all turned out good.

It was a ton better driving in today without that bearing making the whining. Wind has picked up and REAL cold weather is on the way. It's OK because my sport is almost back on!! The Sprint Unlimited is Saturday night and the Can Am duels is Thursday the 18th !!!

Valentines day is Sunday so don't forget the little woman in your life!!!

Of course we did!! And the donuts are mandatory!! Lol. Nah , I use any excuse I can to stay on 'the Lane' (our driveway is Sweetheart Lane). I'd just assume stay here all the time!

It's really not that bad here. I'd say there is a waaay higher than average percentage of people who are well prepared for a short-term 'emergency' like a snow event.

There were flurries a few times today, but nothing stuck. They haven't called school as of now - but the boy went to bed convinced he'd be home tomorow.
