February Coffee Pot. 10 years old. For those to visit and chat. Open to all. Besides coffee; soft drinks, water, oatmeal and GRITS.

Konbanwa and Ohayo Chuck,

I hope you all don’t mind that I started a fresh pot for February. I hope I titled the thread correctly.

The weather was warmer today; the high was in the mid-50s. I spent the day preparing a Sunday school lesson and catching up on some reading. I took advantage of the sun and grilled some steaks for dinner, accompanied by sweet potato fries, and a salad. I believe I will treat myself to a root beer float tonight and relax in front of the television.

I’m glad Doug M. is doing well. I hope you all have a great day.

Good morning February!!!

WOW !!! It is 37 degrees in Buckeyeland this morning and it is only 27 degrees in Roseyville! [(-D][(-D][(-D] I feel the heat! February is starting off great!

Glad to see Don, Jon and Doug are on the mend.

Good Morning from Blueberryhill…

Good Morning, Joe…You did a good job, starting the Feb. Coffee Pot.

It is 40 degrees. Snow is melting. Going up to 50 today with sunshine.

Today is a busy day. I have a few errands to run after the usual chores. I will be busy until lunch. Then a nap.

Dining car has Cheerios for breakfast.

Y’all have a great Saturday.

Chuck

Thanks Joe. Perfect job. Really forgot that it was Feb. 1 when I posted last night.

Bet Buckeyeland will not be in the 60’s. We may have [guess what?] rain later. Especially Tues. That is good. Wash all the salt and brine away. That is Yankee fertilizer. [:-^] That is why the South is so much greener. We usually don’t have that stuff. [(-D]

Not much happening today. May install new TIU. Old one years old and giving a few strange things.

Glad everyone is on the mend. Sounds like Mr. Buckeye has a rehab program all set up for Mrs. Buckeye. [:O]

Charlie and Sir J, will ship you some sunshine [ip] for a price. Ray, Dennis, Don and Doug W, will send you some rain [st] for a price too. [:-^]

Later.

Mornin’ boys. Head is still in a vice. [sigh] Really hope I feel better by tomorrow morning. Hey Demay! Howzabout sending some of those mild temps East…? or is it West…? [D)]

[angel] to all my sickly brethern and sisternen.

Snowing and 27 degrees.

Chief wants us to pay for warm air, guess he remembers when he had to pay me to vote for him.

Was more than happy to rip the January page off the calender.

S.J.

Just trying to recoup some of my “investment”. [:-^]

Good Mornin’ Y’all From The Foot of Sunny Cape Ann,

The high temperature for the day has already been reached, 44. May hit 50 tomorrow. I sure hope Chief didn’t think that because it was so cold down there recently in Roseyville he didn’t have to take his monthly bath in the nearby creek.[:-^] More snow in the forecast for Monday, just a dusting.

GUESS WHAT DAY IT IS? Why, it is RT’s birthday!!! Not to be confused with Buckeye’s birthday. [tup][B][^][G][bday][tup]

**JoeyD…**thank you for starting the February POT. I don’t care what the rest of the guys say about you. There is still hope for a Yankee fan. [(-D] Well, maybe not HudsonJohn and AF Ray. [:-^]

Prayers continue for those recovering…JON, DonnyB, DougM, HusdonJohn’s Mom, and Buckeye’s wife. [angel] I know I am forgetting someone…[banghead]

**Buckeye…**the ice cover on the Great Lakes is staggering. I can remember visiting Door County Wisconsin with my wife about three decades ago and watching the ice floats from Lake Michigan making their way out into open water fr

Good late morning all, stayed up too late last night watching a movie (The Aviator) about Howard Hughes early life. Gave up before it ended but didn’t get to sleep until 2:00AM so I slept late this morning. That’s the nice thing about retirement. No appointments today so who cares?

Glad to hear good reports on Don B., Doug M. and Jon and hope Mrs Buckeye is doing better too.

Don, looking forward to seeing some of your old slides of trains etc. Wish I could do something with my old railroad slides. I took pictures from about 1965 until around 1979 while railfanning. Some of them are good but it is a major job to tackle that slide collection.

Had a hick up on my computer yesterday and lost the keyboard temporarily. My son found the problem with a loose connection. Thank goodness for him or I would be out of business.

We are having a special service at church this coming Sunday called a healing mass for people with chronic illnesses like mine and anyone who is suffering serious health problems. I intend to take advantage of this opportunity and go for myself. Wife is going too for her health issues. The service is now called “Annointing of the Sick”. I will be grateful for any benefits that the Lord extends to me.

Can’t believe it’s February already. Time flies when you’re having fun.

Happy birthday RT[bday]

Ray

Good Afternoon! 39 degrees and Sunny.

A Beautiful Day here. My wife Doray is planning daughter Michele’s Baby Shower. I hope she is speaking French for I have been hearing a lot of what “WE” have to do. Her Rehab from the double knee replacements is going well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! RT

Glad to hear that Doug M is doing well. Get well soon.

Don, Jon and Mrs. Buckeye, Speedy Recovery.

Jack: Enjoy the fund raiser.

Enjoy the Day!

John

Good afternoon all, Accomplished nothing today. Not due to a lack of effort, just everything I touched turned to hash. On top of it all, got a nasty letter from Menard’s telling me to pick up stuff I ordered in December. They were supposed to email or call and they did neither. Not sure I am going that route with them again. Customer service is not their long suit. I hope everyone has a good day. Keep on training, Mike C. from Indiana

I hope you can make my Birthday Party next week. Everyone is going to be there. [8][B][D][^][pi]

Mrs. Buckeye is out of the hospital and now resting at the rehab center just south of the Rogers Corner’s Country Club.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RT !!!

Not much going on here. Think I ticked off a home care nurse today. This guy calls last night about 9:30 and says he has an authorization and wants to set up a time for today to come out. So I tell him 1 pm. At 2 he calls says he’s going to be late. So he arrives asks if we have done this before, we say yes. (Actually same company). Kay asks him does he have a badge. He had forgotten it at the office. Then he wanted the previous documentation so he could copy all the info. (I’m not liking this.) So I want to know how often a nurse is going to be coming out, and also the physical therapist. He doesn’t know. Then he wants me to sign some forms saying we’ve discussed all this including frequency of treatments and treatment contents. I again ask OK so where is the information? Oh it will be coming next week. I told him that is when I will sign the paperwork. He was not happy, wanted/needed the signed paperwork. So he left.

Will get it all resolved next week.

Spent most of the day in bed watching TV.

Take care and stay healthy!

Happy Birthday RT! And many more.

RIJack - Come on now, I know you want to!

Later…

Thanks all

Buckeye I was thinking now that I’m retiring I will have more time so figure I would start doing every other week with you that way we could have a birthday 26 times a year each think of all the goodies we could get by doing that
