Darn Pop-up Ads / Strong Wind Gusts

I have had an Ad Blocker for a couple of months now and have loved not having all these advertisements popping up constantly. The one downside is that many websites will not allow me to read them unless I unblock them. I needed some information so I unblocked ONE site but I guess I did it wrong and now I am being bombarded with ads and I do not know how to block them again...oh, well :-(

One of the worst is the Weather Channel...my uncle is going on vacation and asked me to look up the weather for him...gee whiz what a disaster!  The only ad I actually wanted to see was for an RV rental place and I automatically closed it and it has not popped up again when I really want it to...grrrrrrr!

I do not know what is wrong with me...I am cold all the time and I have to wear two pairs of socks to keep my feet warm.  Remember my $5.00 blue jean jacket and blue jean coat I bought for my trip to Terlingua?  I wear one or both inside the house even though I have the heater set at 72 degrees sometimes I splurge and raise it to 74.

We had terrible wind gusts this morning and afternoon that forced me to go outside to retrieve the five-gallon buckets that I washed yesterday and that went flying all over the place.  I know my Canadian readers and those readers in cold climates will chuckle...but I about froze to death.  I do NOT like coffee but I had to come in and drink some...instant decaf...to warm me up.  You have no idea how I wrestled with adding the little bit of Kahlua I have left...of course I can't as I am taking medications :-(

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Grocery run

I was hesitant to go to HEB this afternoon but I ran out of my high blood pressure medication on Tuesday as well as batteries to power my high blood pressure monitor.  I knew I could not postpone it for another day...as starting tomorrow until Thanksgiving...the crowds only become more massive with each passing day.

Last week before I threw my back out I had gone grocery shopping but did not buy fruits, vegetables or paper goods because I was going to take Paquito (my cat) to Ciudad Acuña to be neutered. Obviously, that did not happen thus was not able to make a grocery run while there. So like it or not I also paid a visit to Walmart as I have NO intention of setting foot in another store until after Thanksgiving.

Decided to treat myself and purchased a bottle of wine as well as some Egg Nog...which I will spike with Kahlua...that I bought on my last trip to Mexico.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
