1:58 am
Kamanjah
Michael is here until we get this tree removal done. Still need to get the insurance ok - they sent an adjuster out today. He had errands to run and I heard a huge cracking sound...everything seems ok, but it was scary. I want this tree OFF of my house!
1:59 am
Kamanjah
I hate to pay without promise of reimbursement on our estimate, but I just may
1:59 am
sprite
oh yeah. I totally understand. Waiting for the other shoe to drop is ugly business and so stressful
2:01 am

i can't believe i missed that. LOL I go to an ice cream-making event annually.
6:31 pm
Nef
is your favorite grain the one I've never tried before? I never heard of it either until about 5 years ago.
6:32 pm
dcseain
yes, it's grey in color, comes from Ethiopia and used to make injera.
6:33 pm
Nef
Okay (injera is another word I've never heard of; I must live a very sheltered life!) ;-)
6:33 pm
dcseain
it's a flatbread made from te4, and a the staple starch in Ethiopian cuisine.
6:34 pm
dcseain
where i live, we have a very large number of immigrants from Ethiopia and Eritrea.
6:35 pm
dcseain
huh wh5 is new to me.
6:35 pm
Nef
Now that I've Googled it (& you've told me about it) I do think I've had injera before. I either forgot the name of it or didn't know it I guess.
6:37 pm
dcseain
or4 also new to me. all these years later, and still i learn a lot from this game. :)
6:38 pm
Nef
We have a large Somali population here; and I've had a few Eritrean patients in the past.

7:32 pm

We're having a pretty bare winter here. The temps are up & down & i think we've only had about 3 inches in all all winter. it's cold 1 day & warmer the next; not anything I like at all.
7:36 pm
dcseain
extend the fo4 to your strength
7:36 pm
dcseain
we've had a lot of rain.
7:36 pm
dcseain
we've set precipitation records annually since 2005.
7:39 pm
Nef
Wow! We've just had changeable weather; we had something like 16 or 18 inches of snow back in April, but it melted slow enough it helped. We didn't have much of a summer; and not much rain then either.
7:42 pm
Nef
Last time I was in DC (for a nursing convention) was in '06. I was on crutches & was flying out of Dulles but things flooded so flights were cancelled & I ended up sleeping in the airport overnight (NOT something I'd recommend; too noisy and nothing - not even vending machines- was open)
7:42 pm
Nef
But it was safe.
7:42 pm
dcseain
We run warmer than we used to. AC through December this year, then weeks of cold, then warm, but not AC warm, now seasonably cold again.
7:43 pm
dcseain
June of 06? It rained the whole month and SO much flooded, way inland even.
7:43 pm

a valley in Reston, VA flooded, destroying 500 cars in a commuter lot. Took three weeks to drain fully.
7:46 pm

LOL! You have a good memory.
7:47 pm

A stream appeared behind my building it was raining so much. I had no idea it was an arroyo.
7:49 pm
