Subj : food, etc... To : Nancy Backus From : Barry Martin Date : Tue Oct 29 2019 09:16:00 Hi Nancy! BM>>> Looks like a cooldown coming up but the TV forecast this morning BM>>> indicated warmer -- we'll see who's right. NB>>> So which was it... do you remember now....? BM>> I don't recall who but definitely got cooler since! ...Looks like I BM>> could use some recordkeeping but I'm not all that interested in the BM>> details of the past: down with, prepare for the future. (OTOH learn BM>> from the past, so never ignore completely!) NB>> And if I weren't answering so much later, the thread wouldn't be so NB>> hard to remember, either... ;) BM> One reason for overquoting. (The other being laziness!!) NB> It's not overquoting if it's needed to keep context... The NB> only recordkeeping I'm doing is the messages themselves... Plus in the old days everyone used dial-up and there were no discounts, so the less old message portion sent back and forth the less the telephone bill was at the end of the month. NB>>>> Might as well take them all while you are at it... :) BM>>> Yup! At least with nothing growing between the pavers it's consistent! BM>>> (Is a peastone filler.) NB>>> Yup... you might as well be weeding that to keep it pretty... ;) BM>> And I will be! NB>> OK... ;) BM> Haven't had to weed it lately: weeds think it's too cold and not BM> enough daylight! NB> A benefit of it being fall, turning towards winter... ;) Though there were plenty of weeds to remove. Now looks like they'll be staying until next year. (Like that is a super-concern to me: running out of weeds.) NB>>> Unless the winter is especially hard on it, sounds like it will be NB>>> fine by spring.... :) BM>> I'm thinking should be fine. Latest 'lawn crisis' is someone BM>> 'potholing' portions of the back yard, probably digging up grubs. BM>> Kick back the dirt clod to refill - done. Cool enough I don't water BM>> like I do in summer. NB>> The good thing about the change of seasons... things get less NB>> intense all around... :) BM> I don't know about that: they're adding the wind chill factor more and BM> more lately! Will get really intense in a couple of months!! NB> OK, a different sort of intense, anyway.... ;) And yes, with the NB> temps dropping and the wind picking up, there is that wind chill NB> factor to worry about.... And now add snow to that! NB>>> ... Does anyone REALLY read these stupid taglines? BM>> No. NB>> Ah, ok... then I guess I needn't expend too much effort trying NB>> for just the right one... BM> Just because I don't doesn't mean someone else doesn't! NB> Besides, you answered it... which does indicate you did read NB> it... ;) Yes, does, doesn't it! NB> ... To boldly go where no sane person has any business. The good news is I never claimed to be totally sane! ¯ ® ¯ Barry_Martin_3@ ® ¯ @Q.COM ® ¯ ® ....
