Sas, I didn't know what to get you so I'm sending you a virtual $47,000 bottle of 1945 Chateau Mouton-Rothschild, enjoy!

Ok....I am totally lost :-/ WTH is Sas talking about ? Did Sas get a Rosseti Stone foreign language course? I definitely need translation. Chevy, your leg looks messed up, did you trip over the chickens? Cami, did you share your plant with Chevy and with Sas? That would explain so much. Hole....that comment about your neck cracked me up. Maddy, yea we finally got some rain. I was working last night and lost electricity. Had to escort people out of the office with the flashlight on my iPhone. I hope you feel better soon Maddy. Lots of new Owlettes here. Anemia not improving for me, so will set up a series of infusions to get my iron levels back up. My level at 8 now, if it gets to 7, I will need blood. Hope everyone can enjoy their weekend.

So far I have screwed that chili up, that it is hardly recognizable! I merely added 2 heaping T. of chili powder. DH tasted it, and nearly lost his breath.... I thought he was a whiner.... So I finally tasted it, and promptly took out all the fixins' and drained the juice, thinking THAT would help.
STILL too hot! So I drained it again, then added some left-over brown gravymix that I had, and it is getting to be a little tamer! This is a lesson learned..... throw out all that chili powder, that I had mixed, and start anew. I think I traumatized the beans so bad, they are afraid to get soft.
Yes, Pawprint, Sass is speaking in a foreign language now..... but we act like everything is fine..... We KNOW she will be back in shape soon.... Ha!
Badger.... just bring the whatever.... that might be all we can eat.... I have to go remove the lid, and see if the spoon melts when I stick it in.

Chevy, it'll be fine! Put a dollop of sour cream on top when serving and that'll mellow it out. Learned that when eating fiery Mex out West. Beer tasts good but doesn't quench the fire, water only makes it worse, and you don't want to wimp out and drink milk so it's cheese & sour cream to the rescue! Oooh and some guacamole!

Thanks Badger.... don't have any sour-cream, but might put grated cheddar on top.... It's been boiling it's little butt off, and so far, it tastes alright....
We scared Teka....Ha!

I keep plain Greek yogurt on hand. Cheaper than sour cream and seems to last longer. DH has no clue.

If she hasn't posted by morning, I'll call her.... I hate to try it tonight, in case she is sleeping? Geez, these kids! Always make us worry......
Littlegoats, I have some Vanilla yogurt.... but I hate to try THAT one...Ha!
Badger, what a pretty little owl! Awwwwww.....!

Ziggy thanks for writing out what Sas said==Now I understand it. LOL
Chevy that what u get for braggin' about u'r chili. My dad used to say the hotter the better u won't stay sick long if u catch a cold. Actually that's probably true cuz all openings seem to advance in their nature, so I grew up with everything super spicey==I don't eat it now, but my DDs do and Joey too. So the chile would have been great to them. u Little chit, why are u doing all this anyway?

LMG, I bet some crumbles of soft goat cheese would be good on chili.
This pic reminds me of Tim's neighbor Wilson on Home Improvement.
It's a little spooky so LMK if it creeps out anyone and I'll delete it.

Sassies doctor says she is doing fine. She just needs to eat healthier and take her meds.

Chevy I'll be pullin' up in about an hour, so keep that chili warm & I LOVE spicy. After you and I will go paint the town, eh?
Thanks yall for the good able to quit smoking stories - Teka, can't believe 4 packs a day, geez girl. Not that any of you need it, but you have permission to give me a whole lot of grief if I mess this up.

Sending get-well wishes to Sas, will be looking forward to being able to understand what she's talking about when she gets out from under the effects of meds.
Ziggy, good going, girl - take it one day at a time, you know how to do THAT - those cigs cannot control you if you don't let them.
Chevy, your approach to chili is impressive!
Am having no trouble sleeping last few days ... am having more trouble staying awake! Hope you all have some good sleep and pleasant dreams tonight.

Sending get-well wishes to sas-schatzi, from all of us here at BCO!

Chevy, "raining" here means pouring, buckets. Maybe it's because our soil is mostly clay, but the ground only soaks up so much and then puddles. Plus in areas, you've had to have seen about the fires, vegetation that isn't there any longer causes floods. We live near hills and hills erode in this weather. A lot of fancy (and expensive) homes close to the foothills near here, I'd be worrying if I was in that location. We had several hours no rain, but it's starting up again.
Hi Pawprint, good to hear from you, how's the weather affecting you? Good thing you had that phone and app. Scary? Hoping the blood levels even out, we went thru a similar scare with DH (he has a rare blood disorder, his dropped so low he needed a transfusion).
Linda, I seem to be having the same problem, can't stay awake. Hoping we get back to normal soon.
Bluebird, great picture
Sassy, hoping you're feeling better, and get to go home soon (if you're not already there). Wow, Sassy, get well wishes from Mods, you're special!

I talked to a friend of Sassy's today. (I had missed her call yesterday) She said the surgery went well! I left Sassy a message to call as soon as she's up to it.

Thanks Phyllo. I wonder how long it's going to take for her to get her path report. Everyone cross their fingers that it's ok.

Oh I bet Sassy gets it right away--she'll know in no time knowing Sas (I hope) I hope she's comfortable. I have no idea the type of pain this is, I hope it not awful for Sas and I truly pray she's doing well.

Yes..... the Sass is BACK! She probably assisted them in surgery, if we all know her! At least she did better than my DD and I did, trying to post something from her not-so-smart phone! I should speak to Sass as if she were here....
You guys tell ME to take it easy, and here Sass is doing surgery, livin' it up with her friends, raising all KINDS of hell! This will keep her down for awhile.... but only another day or two!
Thanks Mods! That was really sweet of you guys!
My chili, or whatever it wound up to be was REALLY good! I will have more this morning, with maybe an egg, on a tortilla! STILL have lots, because DH would not even go near it...Ha! Actually he put a little on his french fries. I was amazed that I could rescue it! I was TRYING to push the walker, back and forth to the sink, from the stove, with smaller increments of chili, in each trip, draining, putting back, back and FORTH! THEN, doing it all over again for the final rinse! That guy on that cooking show would have just passed out..... after he shot me. When I saw that left-over gravy just sitting there in the refrigerator, I thought, "Well THAT might be good!" So it turned out alright.
We might try and venture to King Soopers today.... except it is only 5 degrees out... I used my cane a lot yesterday, but I'll just see how it goes... leg still a little wobbly, or weak or something.... It's just nice to be up and runn------ I mean up and shuffling... Ha!

Yes Chevy take another chance outside with u'r can--I mean we all know anyone who uses a can can no fall or slip and rutn u'r leg not even falling. Voting for u to go out and renew u'r body.
Oh I smell luscious now--wow I even enjoy myself. I have an infection around my cumasecuma so I put my ointment on and it always feel better when I put it on after a shower cuz I wash with an antibacterial soap down there.
People are out shoveling--I think everyone is swearing the whole time--I read their lips.

Good morning! Sassy, good to hear from ya! R&R my dear.
Teka, that looks yummy! Good for you supporting the local fire dept.
Chevy, if you have lots left over, you can freeze chili. NIce to have on hand for a night you don't feel like cooking.
Cammi, I'm surounded by the sound of snowblowers. My DH is jealous, he wants one so bad. He dreams big.
Why do this:
When you can do THIS (insert manly grunting)

Teka, that is some fire department breakfast you're having! I want to live where the fire department serves an Oceanside breakfast! Lol!
Sassie, speedy healing and rest up..
