It looks like tomato soup after I have added the milk and mixed it well. I'm sure my computer doesn't do it justice. Sometimes people will say something is suppose to be purple but my monitor shows blue. What I mean is I don't always see the same color as someone has stated it to be.

My phone shows it a different shade than my computer does, on my computer screen it has more darker reddish tones but my phone shows it as more of a lighter clay pot colour lol...

Wednesday this coming week I'm repainting my bedroom, I've had the paint and supplies in the workshop, it's a good time now to get this project done...I've always slept so well with the walls of my bedroom this shade of terracotta colour...Its already a terracotta colour in that room now but years old and faded some, time for a fresh coat of paint...

This is an internet pic, but it's the colour of my paint...

Its been a lovely day outside, sunshine and 67 degrees, I couldn't resist taking advantage of the weather today, not when we are about to go into a 2 week freeze...Been hiking in the woods behind my house letting kobi chase the wildlife around lol...He really wants a bird but they are way too fast for him, besides almost all the leaves are out of the trees and on the ground, its difficult to walk amongst the trees without making noise stepping in leaves...

If he caught a wild turkey I would clean it and cook it, I've been wanting to eat a wild turkey, never have before...He chased a couple turkeys a few years ago, both on the run then one took off flying, the other left still running with kobi quickly catching up...I really thought he was going to get that one, he got his nose in those tail feathers when it took off upwards in flight...If kobi had just leaped up at it I'm sure it would have been his, but he didn't and just got a good smell of the bird before it flew out of reach lol...

After a much needed "us" night Rikki and I have returned to find the house decorated for the holiday. Rikki was shocked to see Kate had set up her own altar. All that's left is to go get the tree with my boys.

Went to sleep at about 2300 last night, I must have got a really good sleep waking up at 0400 this morning wide awake and feeling well rested...So at the crack of dawn, as soon as a touch of sunlight was in the sky, I put on three layers of clothing since it was only 34 degrees outside and took my dog for a long walk down the road and back...Had to take off my jacket half way back, I was warmed up enough from the walk lol...

Its been very cold outside here lately, would be nice to get some snow but nothing in the forecast but more cold nights in the low 20s...Since I've had the coils replaced in my car its been running great until recently with a very random issue...Its a V8 and runs better with this colder weather however very infrequently now a coil drops out or something, the car will stall out, but restarts instantly, usually does this when its idling, but very infrequently and randomly, it happened three times in November...My dash has a digital readout that doesn't tell me much information, only that the problem was with one or more coils...I have to get my code reader and see what the computer says, I just haven't done that yet because its happened so infrequently, I've procrastinated...I need to get it fixed before the problem starts getting worse, its electrical so yeah I'm sure it will start getting worse sometime soon, and posting about it will help remind me lol...

Was just out with the dog skulking around about 0415 starting my day. Beautiful moon, cool, clean and fresh. Quiet - nearly totally silent. Wish I could bottle that and have some later.

When I was little I had a Lionel Santa fa super chief Tran set. Yesterday I found one for sale. And so my boys will have the best train set ever. It's destination wherever the mind takes it.

D has been buying gifts for her grandchildren (5 altogether). Every time I see an Amazon truck in the neighborhood (like tonight) I know exactly where it is going, unfortunately.

First World issues. We feed our pets French Toast flavored bull d***s.

Now, I won't be tasting them but they really do smell like French toast.

Only 62 percent of veterinarians and 44 percent of dog owners know that these “treats” are, in fact, uncooked, dried penises harvested from slaughtered bulls and steers
