Christmas Day Weather Report
In the pre-Christmas rush, I predict the following weather report.
Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven to an afternoon high near 190F. The kitchen will turn hot and humid, and if you bother the cook, be ready for a severe squall or cold shoulder.

In the pre-Christmas rush, I predict the following weather report.
Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven to an afternoon high near 190F. The kitchen will turn hot and humid, and if you bother the cook, be ready for a severe squall or cold shoulder.
During the late afternoon and evening, the cold front of a knife will slice through the turkey, causing an accumulation of one to two inches on plates. Mashed potatoes will drift across one side while cranberry sauce creates slippery spots on the other. Please pass the gravy.
A weight watch and indigestion warning have been issued for the entire area, with increased stuffiness around the beltway. During the evening, the turkey will diminish and taper off to leftovers, dropping to a low of 34F in the refrigerator.
Looking ahead to Friday and Saturday, high pressure to eat sandwiches will be established. Flurries of leftovers can be expected both days with a 50 percent chance of scattered soup late in the day. We expect a warming trend where soup develops. By early next week, eating pressure will be low as the only wish left will be the bone.
Cheers all and give a thought for others who aren't as fortunate as we are.

I have a large quantity of clothing and shoes I am wanting to sell.
Many of the shoes and boots are new and most are genuine leather (see sample photos). Many of them have also had non slip heels and tips added which is around $60 per pair.
Some of the clothing is brand new and what isn't new, is in excellent condition.
It's mostly run of the mill stuff which has wide appeal, with the odd special piece thrown in.
I estimate retail would be around $10 000.00, although of course I am not expecting anything like that.
I wonder if anyone knows of a shop that might buy outright? Or alternatively, maybe you have a friend who is thinking about setting up a new and used clothing business?
Or perhaps running a market stall to make money for Christmas.
This lot would certainly get them up and running for some time to come.
I've recently been diagnosed with a reasonably serious medical condition so I am not up to doing this myself, so any advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated. 😊
Thank you.
***P.S. I can't post many photos on here, but if you are genuinely interested, please email me at mariedaniel181010@yahoo.com.
