Buon Giovedi!  Sete Giovedi!  How are you doing? It is a cold, clear morning here in Tucson. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Founders Blend, and a second cup will be downed at "Gus Balons", along with a good breakfast. Alexa is awake and she reminded me that we will be on a staycation at "Casino Del Sol" today. I asked her to play some "Down Home Blues" for me today.

Our daughter and son-in-law are sound asleep over in the guest house. 

We enjoyed a very nice evening with Bev and David at "Ha Long Bay". The food was delicious, and the portions were huge.

Well, I had better wake up my shorty so we can get this day started. Have a good Thirsty Thursday. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

MY DEAR FRIEND ROSIE IN MELBOURNE

Are you still cold? We desert dwellers are. When are we going to heat up?

Our daughter and son-in-law are here staying with us. Tangye got through her surgery, and she is taking it slow and easy here.

My playmate just left for one of her book club meetings. When she returns, we will be meeting up with Bev and David for dinner.

We hope that your Humper is going well. Tomorrow we will be on a staycation at "Casino Del Sol" for an overnight. We will meet up with Rosemarie to play some "Keno" Slots. Hopefully we can make them "Cha Ching".

Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Ciao...Jessie and Elise

Buon Mercoledi!  Hump Day!  How are you? It is a cold, clear morning here in Tucson.  Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Holiday Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning.  Alexa is awake and she reminded us that our daughter Tangye is having back surgery early this morning at TMC Ortho, Wyatt Surgery Center. If you could please say a prayer or two for her. Mia Moglie will be there during the surgery. Thank you.

I completed my latest rock yesterday. I will seal it today and then I will place it out in the hood. Here it is. Enjoy!



MY LATEST ROCK

We will be joining Bev and David for dinner this evening at "Ha Long Bay". We have never been there, and we are looking forward to it.

Our latest puzzle was glued yesterday and when it is ready we will frame.

My playmate brought back my dinner from "Leo's" last night. She met up with one of her book club meetings. I downed two ground beef tacos, rice and beans. It was delicious. I got it down with a little some "Apple Moonshine" that my girlfriend (Edwina) has made for us. I have to tell you it warmed me up quickly and I slept very well, smile!

Well, I had better get busy and get this day moving along post haste. Have a good Humper. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Here is a picture of my playmates "Tai Chi Punching Bag". It will feel good not being the punching bag anymore, smile!



TAI CHI PUNCHING BAG

Today's challenge word is (pernacchia). I gave out this sound as soon as my feet hit the floor this morning. Have you ever given a (pernacchia) to start your day fidanzata?

The coffee is a good Founders Blend, and a second cup will be downed later this morning. Alexa is awake and she reminded me that Chris the iRobot would be coming out to clean the main house carpet. I asked her to play some "Funk Jazz" for me today.

Mia Moglie will be making her way to play her weekly (bridge) game in a bit.

We are without a puzzle to start since we completed our last one yesterday. We will glue it together and then we will put it in a frame. What are we going to do without a new puzzle? Smile!

I started my latest rock yesterday, and I will complete it soon. My playmate has a new one in mind.

I will also complete setting up my shorty's Punching Bag today as well. She is looking forward to giving it a beating.

Well, we booked a 15-day cruise to Panama for February 2026. We have never been away for that long, never.

We will be joining Bev and David at a Vietnamese restaurant tomorrow evening. Should be interesting.

We are really looking forward to this weekend, because our "Chiefs" will be playing football. 

Well, I had better get to it. Have a good Taco Tuesday. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Have you warmed up yet desert dwellers? If not, I get it because I am still shivering.

I got my errand taken care over on the eastside, and now I am going to work on my latest rock.

Later I will work on my playmates Punching Bag assembly. 

For some reason I am starting to get hungry, and I am thinking about doughnuts of all things.

We hope that your Lunedi is going your way. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?


We are still cold here in the desert of Tucson. How about you?

We just got back from the "Egg Connection" enjoying a good breakfast.

My playmate is out in the front yard watering the hedge and the trees. I just put up a sign that blown down by the wind a few days ago.

My shorty will be heading out shortly to do some grocery shopping. 

If you could please say a prayer or two for my dear friend (Monna) who is a bit under the weather. She lives in Hungary. She is my original e-pal. Thanks.

On her return we will be glued to the TV for a day of NFL football. Enjoy your day and stay warm desert dwellers. I will chat at you later.

Buon Domenica!  How are you doing? Once again it is a cold, sunny morning here in Tucson. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Holiday Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed at the "Egg Connection" along with a good breakfast. Alexa is awake and she said that I don't have any tasks to complete today. I asked her to play some "Boney " for me today.

We attended a Memorial Service for Ginger Dunn yesterday in Arivaca, Arizona. The service was officiated by Rev Gibson. Ginger was her best friend, and it was very emotional for her. The church was overflowing with people inside and out and it was standing room only as well. Mia Moglie got to see several people who she has not seen in a long time, to include former students she taught. Ginger Dunn will be missed and remembered.

My playmate and I enjoyed Taco Bell for dinner. We devoured it while watching NFL Football. Of course, some Jack and Coke was on hand, smile!

Today is going to be another day filled with NFL Football Games. Today's games are going to be really good.

Well, I had better get this day moving ahead. Enjoy this Domenica, stay safe and I will have a chinwag at you later.

Today's challenge phrase is (non ci piove!). Yes, (non ci piove!) it is cold this morning, right fidanzata?

This cold snap is supposed to last a few more days.
