It is 61 degrees in my house. I heat with fuel oil. Not turning it on yet. But I will be buying a space heater.
If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I was reading my spam folder. Apparently married women are threatening to kill the people running the Have An Affair With a Married Woman website if said people don't find more men for them to sleep with. The horror.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Went to TJ's and also had to swing by the regular supermarket because TJ's was out of lasagna noodles. The recipe I made last weekend called for like 2T of ricotta, so of course now I have to make lasagna.
But then on the way home, I saw an open house sign, so I have go nose around there as soon as I finish lunch. Then cooking and laundry. And work? TBD.

Oh, and weren't we talking about grocery store samples here? A sample of the pumpkin soup at TJ's actually made me put the carton back! Too sweet for me.

I have a strong desire to do nothing today. And that's before I consider the predicted high of 97F. We'll see how that works out, I guess.

It is gorgeous here -- 60 and sunny, perfect fall weather.
So I just poked around the new condo on the corner, and it's nice, but JFC -- it's listed at $1.35 MILLION DOLLARS. I want to ring some kind of bell on the street so all of us current residents can talk about it.

I add a swirl of balsamic vinegar, and that balances out the sweetness really well. (Also for their butternut squash soup.)

It's a good idea to fire up the furnace before you really need it-- if you wait until the first really cold day and it is broken, all the furnace repairpeople will be very busy. Ditto for furnace parts that are back-ordered.

The sole ac unit removed and stored ( but not way down in the basement, learned that lesson well.) Bring on the hot&muggy spell...
Soon as the washers done, trip to Ace.
