oui oui gentil monsieur
Mary!🤗💐🤭
Good morning kind Sir. How are you? Just thought I'd jump into the language this morning.
My Dear Mary, began yesterday the sober part of this Advent time (I was too sollicited for social drink to begin sooner). I had a good night sleep (despite my cold cat climbing on my warm head the whole night, then purring in my ears and tickling my nose with her moustache). I completed a beef/cabbage stew with some pork chops for lunch and had one more of these keto Christmas cookies which recipe we discussed yesterday. In a moment I will go and watch that musical: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirited_(film)
BTW, I recommand this very North American one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Come_from_Away_(film)
i will also play the piano and finish a good book. Weekend mode.
Thanks for the recommendation of the musical. It sounds like it will be good. I had no idea that there were people stranded in Newfoundland during 9/11. I will check it out. Hope Advent isn't being too hard on you. And keep the 'poor' cat warm. Did you get the heat fixed? Or is it due to fuel shortages? We will need to fill our propane tank soon. George is regretting it; however he has enough money put back for possibly 2 fill ups. It hasn't snowed here yet, but it probably will soon. SirRupert goes out on a daily basis to shovel his snow. I don't quite know where he lives. I should ask him. He is a very nice man. I enjoy talking to him too. I think I was one of the first people he Private Messaged when he got unbanned. Don't know what happened there either. Remember when Catsfive said that everyone was unbanned due to something President Trump said and we were asking about people? I had no idea that SirRupert was banned at that time. I know he was happy to come back. Anyway, I got a few things accomplished yesterday after I gave up on the error attacks on here. I'm so glad they got those fixed. It was nerve racking at my end. I'm sure the others felt the same way as I. So try and take it easy on Advent, wrap the cat in a nice snuggly blanket, keep yourself warm as well and make something delicious to eat.
I like u/SirRupert too, I still wonder whether he also went by the handle u/SirReginald whom I had a few nice exchanges with too.
My heat is not broken, it’s just the walls which are still cold. When I leave tomorrow I may have to leave the heating at least partially on.
« Spirited » is a highly FXed adaptation of Dickens’s « Christmas Carol »… transposed to our era but still entertaining and fun to watch. There a little language there (mostly brown words), and also some kind of innuendo between 2 characters… bottom line, it’s much much much softer than any « Sex and the City » episode.
Salut mon Ami. Bon Matin.
bonjour gentil monsieur.
Mary the morning Charm. Hope you slept well after the Twitter drop #6. It snowed more so another day of toiling with the snow shovel. Hope you and George have a great day spent together.
Yes we did. I spent most of the day fighting with this site taking me to 520 errors and all sorts of things until I finally gave up. Win was evidently working on the site trying to get rid of a glitch or something. George managed to 'Finally' get my truck running. It will be so wonderful to get to drive 'her' again. All he has to do now is set the timing. It is hard for him to do anything anymore as he is in dire need of going back to the VA hospital and have his abdomen 'drained' because of his liver. Once he caught Covid last year, it attacked his liver and he hasn't been the same since. He also has managed to get a hernia in the groin area which is causing him much pain. I keep telling him to go to the doctor and we'll celebrate Christmas once he returns. He usually goes by himself to be drained as he knows my son and his wife have no one to keep their kids. It is such a shame that I have no choice and cannot be with him when he needs me the most. I think he finally realized that he can't go unless I have a vehicle to get me to the kids every day; as he was always taking me. So once he gets my truck timed, then maybe I can convince him to go to the VA. They told him he will periodically have to be drained for a long time until his liver function improves. It has been a 3 month ordeal since last Christmas when he caught the Covid. I'm praying his liver returns to normal.
Prayers for George's health. He sounds a real handyman. Good catch.
Thanks. I hate to see him suffer. But at least he 'beat' that covid that almost took him out.
I am sorry to read that.🥺 Tell the stubborn Georgie he should get fixed before he cannot be anymore. We all like to envision you being happy and relaxed together.🙏🏻💐
Bien le bonjour chez vous aussi, monsieur!
