The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

That is right about stores - they all do it, grocery, Walmart, Target. But still 50% is very high for them. I went and ordered another jacket tonight. It's really a waterproof shell and I need something like that. I have waterproof winter coats etc. but way, too hot to wear for spring or fall storms.

LLBean stuff costs even more and I've never seen them offer more than a 25% discount,
which is a mere pittance.

Do you spend a lot of time outside DD?
 
Oh boy, I could use some of your wind and cold weather Debby - it's hot as Hades here in NZ. I remember it being like this 7 years ago - I only remember because I was pregnant with my son, and in my last trimester, and it was hot from November onwards (he's a February baby). Usually we don't get heat like this until the middle of January and all through February, maybe into March, then it cools off again.

Apparently the Tasman sea (between us and Aussie) is much warmer than usual. The ocean temps on the West Coast are at what they wouldn't usually reach until March. On the West Coast of the South Island it's the same temperature as East Coast Auckland beaches. Crazy!

Our last two young cockatiels finally got their wings clipped. One decided to take off and get stuck in the little gap down the back of the cabnet that holds the wall oven and microwave, plus a little cupboard up top. I had to fashion a scoop skinny enough to fit in the gap and stick it to a long pole then convince the poor terrified baby to get in it!!! Talk about stress!!!
 
Morning!

@rjohns39 I agree with you about the daily "serious" news...that stuff's depressing!

@JaeG you want any of this wind and cold, come help yourself we have enough to go around. It's been snowing and blowing since last night. Glad you were able to rescue the little bird, that must have been nerve wracking!

@sunflour if you were really my friend you would have warned me about that time-eater known as Pinterest. Talk about falling down rabbit holes! I did, however, find a couple of good recipes, enjoyed some funnies and learned that I too can make a gingerbread house snow globe in only 78 steps (oh sure!).

@Teila I hope you aren't glued to your chair with IT problems again today.
 
Here you go @JaeG
