FRIDAY UPDATE

SO it’s Friday again.. what a week.. we helped get 33 miners up out of their dark place and into the light of day and real life again. The news reported today that more than one of those miners had more than one mistress up in the real world. Whoops… I bet those guys NEVER thought of the consequences of their actions. Talk about reality TV.. uh huh…

Update on the  flu shots.. got mine a couple of weeks back. No problems, but ever since then I have heard of a lot of people who are sick with some kind of something. Fevers, sore throat, etc. Several of the workers at mom’s treatment center have been out sick and even had to get antibiotics to help get over it. Does not bode well for the winter season around here. I have been using those wipes and hand santizers like crazy.  Got our furnace cleaned and heated up the house yesterday. I have been using those infrared heaters you see advertised for at least a month. Sure saves on the gas bill. They are well worth the investment for sure. Eggs went on sale at the store for 99 cents a dozen so I stocked up and decided to make a custard impossible pie.  It was yummy. Placed the recipe at my recipe blog.. is so fast and easy…was a pleasure to make it. Use the search box and find the recipe by name.
Gas went up here to nearly $2.95..wow..you really have to watch when to buy it or you will get really ripped off. I noticed that prices of fruit are back up in stores except for apples which are plentiful here in Michigan right now. Being aware sure helps with cost right now.

SCHOOL PRIDE is being launched tonight on TV on NBC at 8 PM est. Ever since I saw the commercial I thought this was a great idea. Schools in this country are in such bad condition.. a show that goes in and restores them back to new brings so much back to the youth who go there. With pride in their surroundings they can’t help themselves but be more excited in learning. I think the photos of how bad they look will surely shock a lot of people. WORTH WATCHING this..such a good good idea. Well that’s all from here…

Hi Sis,,this is Sis using the cat's blog. Too lazy to go back and change accounts as I am just finished her blog..I mean SHE is finished and I need to go back and comment with her after seeing you.

Anyway I def will try the pie. I am crazy about custard.

Gas is, the lowest price 2.57 a gallon. We can't ever win. really., They have us coming and going.

It was wonderful those trapped miners got out safe. It was organized so well others could learn from it, like USA! Education sure is slipping and so many are being left behind. You have a great weekend!

Hi Carol, Thanks for reminding me, I need to get our furnace cleaned also.
I've also thought about just using electric heaters as the natural gas price has gone way up from what it once was. I hope you have a nice weekend too :)

I have made the impossible custard pie with Bisquick before. It is really good.
I am so glad the miners are all safe. Now they will have to deal with the mistresses. Can't win 'em all I guess.

Hugs,
Beth

I remember making your custard pie last year (or maybe the one before) and it was delish! I put the recipe in my book.

I hadn't seen commercials for the School Pride show, but sure sounds like a great idea.

Gas up here is about the same. Eggs are never on sale and milk is always around $4. UGH!

Great, I get my flu shot tomorrow at work. And I might get sick from it? What's ironic is that those people in our building to might come into contact with the public must either get the flu shot OR wear a surgical mask when they meet with customers. And now they could get sick from the flu shot and still infect some people they come into contact with? Not right.
