She might be discharged tomorrow or maybe Sunday. YTD On the drive back there was some thunder snow. I’ve not seen any in a few years. I got some dinner from a restaurant around the corner. Now just watching the movie Speed. Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves are babies. A quick example of my driving/walking fun tonight. I gave a shoutout to a friend in Miami, so don’t be surprised to hear it. Great news about your mum's op going so well. 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you see the video of the Penguins swimming, never knew they could swim just like dolphins. Thought penguins were really slow swimmers, but they are not. Looked like flying fish !

They are forecasting 1-3 feet of snow and 65 mph wind gusts for the Bills Steelers game That's going to be rough for the fans and players there. Thankfully most if not all of that snow should have fallen already before the game starts so all they have to deal with is the cold and wind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helen haywood Posted January 13 #112806 Share Posted January 13 @Luckynana I was taking a bit of artistic license re wearing the boot. I did sail a B2B back in January 2020 with one. My point was just that not everyone can do stairs. @A&L_Ont What a coincidence! We rented Speed last night! It actually was a pretty good movie!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night, I watched The Proposal - set in Sitka, Alaska but actually filmed in Rockport, Massachusetts. Beautiful scenery nonetheless. A few years ago I saw a movie supposedly taking place in the Bushwick section of NY and much to my surprise it was filmed in Bushwick.However,the two main characters were on a train and got off at a station supposedly in Bushwick but in actuality it was about 10 miles from Bushwick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Governor of NY has been trying to get the game postponed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills fans are used to terrible winter weather, there is no way I would be interested in attending that game (unless in a suite) I love being retired as normally I would be working that game. I remember shooting video from the sidelines in cold weather like this. It’s not fun at all. Brutal. I will enjoy (hopefully) the game curled up on the couch with my heated blanket, puppies on my lap, and a fire in the fireplace. The only thing ice cold will be the beer in my hand. I think it will be a low scoring affair. As bad as the Chiefs receivers are for holding onto the ball it will be even harder tonight. The Chiefs have been practicing all week outside to prepare for the cold. Tyrek should be fine for the Dolphins as he is used to this weather from his playing days with the Chiefs. I’ve got friends who have season tickets. They are die hards and it will be interesting to hear from them what the conditions are like. No way would I ever go to a game when it’s this cold. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted January 13 #112822 Share Posted January 13 Is it just me, or does anyone else wonder why Regent Seven Seas chose a couple that resembles Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell for their marketing? 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting tomorrow we will have a high in the 20’s with possible snow , a few years ago we had a string of freezing days and electricity was lost for many , one of my friends had a hundred thousand dollars in damage since his pipes froze . We were fine . My sister is flying home to Denver from Florida today and Denver has a high of 1 today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
