  1. Ah shucks!  My NKOTB watch from 1990 does not work!  I got it new in the packaging this Christmas.

      6string, that’s exactly how I felt!  No NKOTB watch for me!

    Any ideas on what to take or do to fall asleep?

      Laughter is key to falling asleep and Wear shades when your watching tv.

      Thanks All!  I will try these.  I put melatonin on my list for grocery shopping at the end of the month.  I was able to all asleep after midnight last night. I took a shower, and felt relaxed.  I was going to sleep between 4am-5:30am.  I'm trying to sleep sooner.

      I would add if you are going to take the melatonin supplements. Take one about 30-60 minutes before you plan on going to bed. Do it every day for a month and then assess from there. I recommend talking to your doctor if you plan on taking them for longer than that, as you can become dependent. I recommend a dosage between 10-20mg

  3. Been tired all day long and been sleeping and sleeping, and then up.  Time for more coffee to perk me up!

      Oh my gosh! The moon is so spectacular!!

      @luckylager that sounds great.  My version of dinner is a little different, but sometimes I will have a salad, but I did have poutine afterwards as a little snack.  

       

      I wish Thai was available for breakfast.  A nice Thai meal to start off the day.  

       

      And the moon is becoming more and more spectacular!! Boy am I excited about the moon!!

  6. Does anyone know where I can get a Midnight Sparkle doll in Seattle, Vancouver or surrounding areas?  My niece really wants one.

      I sometimes go to the local gun range and shoot clay pigeons on Sundays. It's pretty fun.

      You want fun on a Sunday?  I mowed the lawn, fertilized so the lawn will grow faster, pressure washed the moss off the patio stones around my house and gave a tune up to the lawn mower.  I'm livin' the dream.

      Dang, I missed this thread!  I would’ve posted “House Party” at Brilac’s place.   Everyone is invited with the only stipulation being....bring your own booze.

       

      PS, you might not want to invite Alf if you don’t like Pepsi....

      I am glad I gave up my lint brush it's too much work... I almost became OCD. 

  12. grr grr and grr! I am unable to give more reputation points for the day - I've reached 24, and all I want to do is give more reputation points in the cereal confessions thread!

  13. Habs vs Bruins- what a great way to start off the New Year!   Go Habs Go!

  14. I am totally loving these! The birthday cake is my favorite! And they were only 0.99$ at the grocery store, and 130 calories per serving!

      Wife and I took a shot cruise to Alaska years ago.  The food, including chocolate, was included.  The only black bear I saw was one about 2 feet tall.  I broke off his ear and ate it.  :frantic:

    4. brilac

      That's what I like; the airline should include chocolate on board.  Besides the wine and champagne, chocolate, decadent dessert should be included!

  17. I just can't stop admiring the gorgeousness of my fridge!  I cleaned it yesterday.  It was already decent, clean to begin with, but look at it now!

      Oh yes, xmas candy goes great with organic tortillas!  But this time, they were out of the organic tortillas, and I had to settle for non organic tortillas. 

       

      I like to wrap tuna fish in them with pepper jack cheese, and have xmas candy on the side, as dessert.

      "Organic" means whatever the item price is multiplied 2x+ :P

  20. I'm drinking sparkling wine at a tasting room, and gosh I keep starring at this, and looking at parts individually.  I love it!  It's art all put together.

      That is art.  You can put them together forming a design or pattern, have all the labels facing forward.  Like wine bottles for example. Some have unique labels on them.  So if you buy many bottles of wine, you can organize them, making a nice formation.  Something like that.  Art is art.  Art is anything.

      @6string  I don’t leave any unbroken beer bottles or unsmashed empty cans around me....

  24. I’ve been wearing the same Canucks shirt and leggings for days with my hair pulled back with a hair tie and headband.  
     

    Are you one of these people?  I will get into a routine starting tomorrow.  I have yoga and cardio planned, as well as a shower.

      I can't have my hair pulled back as I need whatever hairs I have left to 'comb over' my receding hairline.:P
