Happy February! Stay warm all you Easterners!

Happy Birthday, Betty White. Thank you for being a friend. https://www.google.com/search?q=betty+white

Have a happy MLK day everyone! So sorry to hear about your mom and what your dad is going through. There's always at-home tests if you really want to know if he has covid. Thoughts and prayer go out for him.

Everyone have a wonderful Christmas and travel safe out there! And here's hoping 2022 starts off on a better foot for everyone!

Thanks Was actually my sister's fault. She invited me over for candy Christmas cottage building with other grandkids + adults. Why not?

My gingerbread (wood glued to paper plates, actually) cottages masterpiece for your consideration...

My December Christmas post. Finally moved into my new downstairs place a few months ago so decided to splurge for a new 4-foot Christmas tree this year (replacing my Charlie Brown one): Celebrated my new place this Christmas season by buying myself a present. Been looking to get this Star Trek printed canvas for a while now. Almost 7-feet wide by 3-feet tall hanging in my living room. Trekkies unite!

58 degrees for the low and clear. Sorry you easterners

The luggage sets on page 17 of Macy's BF sale are also currently going on as we speak: https://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/BlackFridayScans/Macys/17

Happy Veteran's Day everyone! Enjoy the parades and thank your local veterans for their service!

Why would we? That's one of the benefits of living in a state where we don't care what time it is anywhere else

Always read the fine print

No pie left? The pie avatars means it must be that time of season again! Oh, and I'm in for the new 2022 prize club

Try pushing the little black button a couple times. Beware the seizure-inducing flashing strobe light I immediately dropped mine out of fear and blindness when it happened.

Brad should have at least put some sort of warning label on these things

The main charts site is back up for those that want to compare previous years. And yes, there were laptops in the 2019 charts from Best Buy, Target, and a few from Walmart. Far as 2020, well, technically there really was no Black Friday so no charts These last few months have been tough on me and given the 2021 charts a rough start but I'm really going to push forward and try to make them happen this year. http://blackfridaycharts.com/

Welp, better late than never I guess. Check.

August already? Two more weeks and I get to use the tickets I got for my b-day to go see Smackdown Live at the Footprint Center (formerly known as the Phoenix Suns Arena)

Happy birthday to someone... Happy birthday to someone! Happy birthday to... theguywhomakesblackfridayawesomebecauseofthechartswhicharethemosthelpfulinplanningallofyourblackfridayshoppingseason... Happy birthday too............. ME!

Fired/snipped Pay TV a long time ago. Never looked back since. Watch local channels regularly and am addicted to Comet (classic sci-fi) and Buzzr (classic game shows).

I'm declaring my independence from basal cell carcinoma on the top left of my scalp. It was a very large chunk the dermy had to cut out so I was sent to a plastic surgeon who did a skin graft from my left shoulder. I just took the upper white bandage off so I now have a sponge literally stitched into my head until Thursday when they take it off. Meanwhile it's painkillers, binging and rest until then. Joy.

Welp, annual blood work just came back. Thyroid level is still a little high so my hypothyroid med is going up a tad (screw you thyroid), and A1C test and other levels says pre-diabetes (I can't stop saying "dee-uh-bee-tuhs" like Wilford Brimley) so I gotta eat right (just change my diet to a somewhat diabetic one), exercise more (which I can't do much more of due to my injuries) and lose a little weight (which is also difficult due to my many conditions and reasons above which all caused me to gain weight in the first place). I'm telling you if all this doesn't work I'm just gonna ask for another pill or something. Then came the call from my dermatologist who took a biopsy from a nasty spot on the left side of my scalp about a week ago. Basal cell carcinoma is back and I have Moh's microsurgery scheduled for morning of July 1st. Guess that'll be my first post for July. Wish me luck!

Record high temps hitting 118 degrees most of this week SPF 5000, anyone? At least I can remain inside and watch "Loki" on Disney+ to stay cool.

Here comes the triple digit weather. Crack up that AC.
