I'll do the rant first if you don't mind. You all know that I read a bit too much of the 'new' author's works. Everybody makes mistakes, I make mistakes [in my haste or ignorance], BUT have come across this spelling error so many times that it is grating.
1.) The rains have turned my yard into mud.
1a.) It looks like rain again.
2.) Queen Elizabeth reigns over her kingdom.
2a.) He thinks he can reign over the lot of us.
3.) He grabbed the reins and did his job.
3a.) Rein in that horse, boy!
Sometimes English can be no fun at all ... I have been reading 2 & 3 mixed up for the longest time, until I was beginning to think I had it wrong in my head! I read a lot of westerns ...
Well, so much for that. I feel better now.
As of Saturday, snow and cold was predicted for last night. We even had an advance advisory. It didn't happen. It is raining and gloomy, but not going to result in sleet, ice or snow. Relief!
The dogs are being quiet today. They have hunkered down because it may, in their estimation, storm and get scary. It's a good day to sleep. I am tempted, myself!
DH brought me big breakfast yesterday morning. He stopped on his way home from work. Normally, he comes home and crashes into his bed. It wasn't until he was asleep that I realized that it was Valentine's Day and breakfast was his gift. I really felt, "Der," and didn't dare wake him to thank him. My bad.
The HDMI cables came Saturday and we hooked up the TV before he went to work yesterday afternoon. All I can say is, "Wow!" Son has brought me travel videos, movies, and space stuff for my comp and I just love the bigger picture! I'm very surprised by the quality of the picture!
Have a great week!
