      Good mornin’, Lucille! That sup looks pretty good right about now! We did get some snow last night, but it’s still dark here, so I’ll wait to investigate for about an hour! Coffee’s ready, ma’am.

        Good morning, Texan! The sun is shining brightly this ayem with no snow predicted until the 31st. I’d be perfectly happy not to have snow at all this winter. It’s been minimal so far in the Idaho Panhandle for us folks not living on a mountain.

        I’ll be over later for the brown brew, sir!

      I love Chicken tortilla soup. My two complaints about it are when it is too watery or when it is sit spicy. I can control both with this recipe.

    Good mornin’, and happy Taco Tuesday. I’m not tired of winning yet, but I was exhausted after a man who is more than 12 years older than me ran circles around nearly everyone yesterday! Keep your head on a swivel (just to keep up) and carpe’ your coffee! WINNING!

    National Hyaluronic Acid Day – good for hydrating skin

    Squirrel Appreciation Day – I am always delighted to see a squirrel hopping about or just flicking its tail at the dogs…

    National Hugging Day – great idea

    National Granola Bar Day – easy way to eat a messy food

    Afternoon All. About 10* here, I think. I is supposed to warm up to 16* or so.

    I watched a lot of the Inauguration festivities yesterday and really enjoyed it so much. It was good to see Melania smiling and laughing. And, I really got a kick out of her doing the Trump dance a little.

    Hope you all stay warm. I am having a little trouble adjusting to this baseboard heat. I think it would be all right if I had a ceiling fan to move the heat around some. I will have to check into that. There is no ceiling light in the LR or I could use one of those new little fans that you just place in the bulb socket. I also need to put something on the bottom of the front door to stop the draft. Getting it done.

    You can now have a great day! 🙂

      Good evening, Aus,

      In addition to the circulation, try increasing the humidity level in your home. Baseboard heating is drying, and drier air feels colder than air with more humidity.

      Air flow + increased humidity can make baseboard heat more tolerable.

      Draft stoppers help keep that cold air from drifting across the floor, don’t they? Nothing pleasant about encountering an icy breeze across the floor.

      It may be that the door gasket is missing or worn out, if it’s an exterior door. Maintenance may be able to help with that, if it’s so.

        Thanks. I found my humidifier today and will set it up. And, I am looking into ways to block the leak under the door. I am using a towel right now. But, I am looking at different types of things to hook under the door to block the air. There used to be carpeting in this apt and they have put wood like flooring. I think that left a big gap under the door. I have seen a couple of things that might work.

    BREAKING: In Final Act, Judge Cannon Blocks DOJ From Sharing Jack Smith’s Classified Docs Report with Congress

    By Cristina Laila Jan. 21, 2025 11:40 am

    “Prosecutors play a special role in our criminal justice system and are entrusted and expected to do justice,” Cannon wrote. “The Department of Justice’s position on Defendants’ Emergency Motion … has not been faithful to that obligation.”

    CLEANING HOUSE: President Trump Reveals the First Four People He Has Fired – Over 1,000 More to Come

    By Cullen Linebarger Jan. 21, 2025 10:30 am

    President Trump is not wasting time draining the swamp as he embarks on his mission to save America once more.

    Trump took to Truth Social early Tuesday morning to announce the first four people he had canned upon taking office. None of these should come as a major surprise to TGP readers, especially one certain infamous general.

    “Far-right leaders” – typical liberal blather in an article from the NYPost….

    Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes, ex-Proud Boys boss Enrique Tarrio set free by Trump

    By Ryan King–  Updated Jan. 21, 2025, 12:55 p.m. ET

    Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio are free men after President Trump granted pardons to more than 1,500 defendants who faced charges in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

    Attorneys for both far-right leaders confirmed their release to The Post Tuesday.

    Tarrio was 16 months into a 22-year prison sentence on seditious conspiracy and other charges, while Rhodes was almost 20 months into an 18-year sentence for the same offense.

    ☕️ OPEN THE DRAINS ☙ Tuesday, January 21, 2025 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠The first 18 hours of the new Trump Administration might be the most transformative period in U.S. history. But that’s only scratching the surface: The drains have been opened.

    JEFF CHILDERS – JAN 21, 2025

    Good morning, C&C, it’s Tuesday! And what an exciting and amazing Tuesday it is. The last 12 hours has been a whirlwind of late-night executive sessions and a monumental amount of work behind the scenes. He’s actually doing it! He’s draining the Swamp. It is happening. It’s practically a whole new country, America 2.0, a long overdue upgrade.

    The ending of the Substack article “Trump Roars In Like a Lion”

    By Don Surber – Substack – January 21, 2025

    It is morning in America again. Oddly, the most touching and poignant moment in the ceremony did not involve America’s favorite president.

    The moment was JD Vance’s mother watching her son be sworn in. All the trauma the woman (much of it self-inflicted) suffered disappeared magically by a simple oath of office. Like Lincoln, he overcame poverty and an alcoholic parent to succeed.

    By the way, find someone who looks at you the way Usha Vance looks at her husband.

    America had a Happy Inauguration Day. Trump’s second term is off to a good start. He will not govern by DC’s rules, but rather by the Constitution and common sense.
