ROX it's been a crazy long weekend with snow. People complaining but it's like we used to get it. The past few years have been scarce. I enjoy shoveling and I do it when needed, so I did a couple of times, after the landlord blew it. I also cleaned out the fire hydrant across the street. No one is doing it this year and the snow was up to the top. But it's also blustery with low visibility. They pulled the plows off the roads today.

Glad you got your guess even at 3 am, Letters!!!

For everyone else.... his days are numbered.

Good morning to all! And a Happy Family Day Weekend to all Canadians🇨🇦 It’s a beautiful day to get outside and enjoy yourself.

I have a pretty darn good guess for this one.

Thanks, Jasdip

foas - you’re East Coast, yes? From West Coast, I know I’ve heard the term ’starters’ for a first course in a more formal dinner or even listed that way on menus. But, apps, the more casual word, is what first comes to mind for me. We definitely say four-uh-ners. A very different sound for the ’IN’ part of inners. My birthplace is MT & I spent adolescence & teen years in AK so I don’t think I have a typical regional accent or speech pattern. A person once told me I sounded like I came from NY. Didn’t say which part but I think that’s the MT influence.

When it comes to partnership, do you like common interests, like music, activities, etc. Or do you prefer opposite sides, just for variety? I prefer the same especially in music.

It was quite a stretch for that "g" to cover the whole space between those distant ends ... to make them "tight" - at a neighbourhood pub, maybe? Several of my rather ancient undies have become so out of touch with this attribute of their youthful activities that unless I add some extra stretch, their sideways ends have grown so distant that they drop down further than their middle, that gets hung up on the crotch of my pants- (when I'm wearing them). ole joyful

I have 2 guesses. One seems like the easy answer foas and rox mention. The other is an obscure / now obsolete practice so is probably not the answer.

LOL, Jasdip I just read the news and maybe staying in and defrosting your freezer is a wise choice for you! Wow, your area is sure getting the snow. Alberta is super cold right now, but blue skies and sunny. 🥶🌞 and of course, deep powdery snow everywhere.

Our snow turned to rain. At least I don’t have to shovel!

I’ve got an answer and am very confident!

I looked at this a few times and came up with nothing. Apparently I do my best thinking at 3:00 a.m. because I just opened it again and it immediately came to me!

Yikes! Totally missed it. I guessed ”mandate list” 🤷‍♀️

Jasdip, we’ve got a lot of snow but it has fallen over a period of time. It’s been cold here, though. minus 35 C last night and a high of minus 25 C today. My husband plowed me a bunch of walking paths in our horse pasture. Now my short legged little dog has somewhere to run offleash when I go for walks. I got back from Cancun on Thursday and while I had a wonderful time there, I was glad to breathe the fresh, crisp air.

Thanks again, Jasdip. 🤠

Got it! Thanks, Jasdip!

Glad we’re all enjoying our respective weather….I’m a warm weather girl (actually the hotter, the better!) and so grateful to be in FL for the winter!!

Nope. I also settled on, ”List of mandates” after passing on, ” Not her time”. Thanks again.

ole joyful here again.

Seeng the answer, I thought, "Mine are, too!", but then thought "Isn't everyone's?".

But I guess many of us just become more aware of it as we become aged, perhaps especially as we become someone visited by decrepitude?
