Certainly, Jim and I don't go overboard on Valentine's Day. We will go for a late lunch (his gift to me) and I've given him a small box of dark chocolates. No cards, just a simple Happy Valentine's Day.

We don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day. The year after we married our little dog died on 14th Feb. She was the first pet I had lost and it broke my heart. She was 18 mths old.

Problem with Xanax is its too short acting, doesn't last long enough....and I wouldn't recommend mixing it with anything.

I tried to do a small project following a youtube video, step by step type, I managed to make a mess but not much else....ha ha

I think reprocessing medical devices even though only 6 months training may be teeny bit too complicated for me...ha ha

Maybe its a lack of ability to learn, can't exactly do this sort of thing in an apartment...lol

I don't get the layer method. As someone who (still) eats the top of a chocolate marshmallow teacake leaving the biscuity part until last and eats a custard cream by separating the pieces, taking the filling first, biting a Crunchie and getting to the honeycomb with a tongue (similar to a walnut whip) I am familiar with layering, nibbling and all the rest. But there's not enough chocolate on a jaffa cake to do that.

As far as I am concerned anyone who dunks a Jaffa cake needs referring to a specialist who deals with psychiatric problems.

Or anything with chocolate or similar that is likely to drastically change the taste of the beverage.

I don't actually need to make one, just amazed at the things people can make, not necessarily a fan, but can't go using loud saws and such in apartments, well you could but you will find yourself evicted fairly quickly...ha ha

The electricity shortage in Texas amid the cold snap has sent spot electricity prices soaring so much that the surge in power prices equals a cost of $900 for charging a Tesla.

Need more coal fired plants it seems the wind turbines can't handle the cold?

"“The wind-dependent Texas grid is experiencing rolling blackouts, prices the equivalent of $900 per Tesla charge, and an expected supply shortage of 10 GW--the amount of electricity needed to power 5 million homes,” Alex Epstein, Founder of Center for Industrial Progress,"

My village has a Facebook community page with a "For Sale" section. Someone has just advertised three unused blank VHS cassettes for sale. £2 if anyone is interested.
