No, I just walked around. We have been to it before and will probably go again next time we are there.

 

Did you get to climb it when you were there or was it still closed?

My wife just had a hit and run accident on her new car , earlier this year same thing, but this time she got the license plate, need to get a car camera installed, just very minor damage and she is fine . 

Sorry to hear this George.

I hope the culprit is caught and charged.

Fortunately your wife was not injured.

Good afternoon.

It is a cold but sunny 50°F at the moment.

I hope everyone is well on this National Grouch day 

Wishing everyone a nice weekend.

Graham.

Yikes, have you ever considered a self cleaning litter box? We have the Litter Robot 3 Connect and love it. Best money ever spent on them except of course vet bills. They have a 90 day in home trial, but not sure of the details.

Hope she doesn't have it, but being triple vaxxed should help.

 

Glad to hear she is ok. 

I have thought about it.  My husband does all the scooping while I work on food and meds so it hasn't been a priority for me.  LOL  Does it take special litter?  Does it fit large cats?  Elmer is large 20 lbs and Samantha may get pretty big.  Was it hard to get your cats used to using it?

Thank you so much!

I am starting the day with an earache that started not long ago when I had my ears cleaned.  Never had pain getting them cleaned in the past, but this time, when my left ear was cleaned it felt like it was "zapped" a bit too strong.  It created an OUCH moment.  I should have gone back the next day but thought it would ease up eventually.  It didn't.

 

I just hope nothing was damaged permanently.  My hearing is almost shot in that ear to begin with.  Being fitted for new hearing aids next week.  Yes!

 

 Sorry for starting the morning off with such a "yuchy" topic but Jack is still sleeping and I needed to vent somewhere! 👂

I'm tired of the CC log  0n/off issues.  Deleting cookies daily etc and it makes no difference.

For the Bills Nation fans here, enjoy this video.  A great Canadian band from Hamilton, with such an appropriate song for Buffalo.  Turn it up.

Giants and Jets season may be over but not the Buffalo Bills 

 

And the Buffalo Sabres are undefeated!!!

 

Had to say it while I can.  And using sports fan logic, when your team beats the team that was in the Stanley Cup finals last year, that means...

Speaking of football, Owen is all dressed up for game day.  I haven't seen him so dressed up since graduation day.  Hopefully they do well today.  

 

I told him I will be cheering for the other team, because that is where I went to high school.  He just laughed at me.

I don't know what device you are using, but I use my laptop.

If I click on the lock symbol in front of the address, a drop down menu  gives the option to clear cookies just for CC, not the entire computer.

 

Thanks!  🙂 

 

I also use my laptop exclusively when I am on CC.   I like to use all my fingers.  😉  

 

And for me, it's really not that bad as to clearing for the entire computer...just takes a bit to log into favorite websites again, but does make me feel better to get rid of the tracking.

I retired at 55 and took SS at 62.

 

 

Close to us as well.  Bucky retired at age 58, me at age 54 one year later.  Was going to wait until 55, but Bucky asked me to retire early.  He didn't like the stress he was now first hand witnessing, with what I was going through with the career I had.  Plus he told me "I don't have anyone to play with!".  😄   

 

OK...no real arm twisting was needed there...was happy to comply!  😉

That was awesome.  Thanks for posting.  Love Steve Tasker.  If that guy doesn't end up in the Hall of Fame it will be a travesty.  I like how they flashed back to some of the players from years ago (years in the making).  I even think I saw Doug Flutie in there.

He's starting to look like a man.  Definitely not a kid anymore.

Take the SS now before there isn't any left that you are worked hard for and are entitled to. 

 

Yup, we now both get a SS deposit on the same day...though his deposit beats mine out...by a whole dollar!!  So he gets the title of Mr. Big Bucks over me.  🤑

I have not been having many problems with CC lately.  I typically come here using a Windows Edge browser on my PC, and will also use Edge on my iPhone as well.  I'm saying that for completeness as I doubt that matters??  Maybe once a week, I'll need to refresh the page to allow me to like a post.  I don't think Edge is any better than Safari or Chrome, but each one is slightly different in how they support some of the more advanced HTML code used in web pages. 

 

I've seen it posted here before but don't remember...what's the underlying software that CC uses?  I'll see if I can do a little digging and find out if there are issues with that software.

Sorry to hear that...and happy it was not worse!  😮   

 

Even though minor, I hope they catch the jerk.  Good job getting the license plate number!  Too many of these types get away with it.  😠

Yes, that is pretty much how I feel.   I'm happy as is and know our renters are too as it is a couple of them that have told me we are too cheap with our rent.  

We will take a closer look at the figures when we do our totals for year end.  

 

My sister has a house in the Keys she rents out.  On waterfront with a pool.   She rents hers out way too cheap as well, IMHO....and naturally has people fighting over it for winter rentals.

I cannot begin to think how much thread catching up I will be doing when I get back home.  
Today perfect day at coco cay.

I only know that when we pet sat at our DD’s, my husband commented on the litter box. That the litter disappeared and he didn’t have to do anything but feed the cats and feed and walk the dog. 
(I was busy enjoying watching the ocean and reading)

I asked my DD about the magical litter box and she said best investment ever.

With you 💯.  If you’re using an iPhone, below is a screenshot of advice Bobmacliberty gave me a couple of pages back when I was ranting about the same thing. I haven’t had to use it - yet.
