Grab A Green Beer, Make Merry & Be Safe!

March 17, 2012 by Emily 4 Comments

Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone, be safe out there. Oh it’s another reason to have a party!! I am way past that phase where I had to go to a party for every holiday. I make my own party at home with my William!! He’s part Irish so I got all the Irish I can handle at home. Woohoo, go me!! We’re going to put on our green hats, pour some green beer, and maybe have Leprechaun movie marathon today haha. Sounds lame? Not really, besides we still have The Walking Dead to look forward to tomorrow, so it’s all good! Early this morning we were watching the news where they were coloring the river green in Chicago, I would like to maybe one time see that for myself, it’s pretty spectacular as its a very large river.

Wow that is just all gorgeous and all. Not many people around, but I guess the excitement is actually seeing it being dyed, I think I posted a video of them dying the river, let me dig that up and re-post it here for you all. I know you would love to see it lol I thought I would find a different one to share, you can always search my archives for the other one, but enjoy this one too.

Imagine how much fun it would be to be on the board while the river is being dyed? Is it just me, or would that be a lot of fun. They use vegetable dye, so it shouldn’t harm anything that may be living in the river. I’m sure it’s safe! Over 30,000 people go to see this done, wow hey? This video I have to say is a little more interesting than the other one. Even though it wasn’t film this year, you get the idea when you watch it, and you find out some pretty interesting information.

Have a green beer for me today!I hope you all have a great weekend, a safe St. Patrick’s Day, and drink a green beer for me, as I won’t be doing all that much drinking, probably only 2 beers haha, what a wimp I am. When I was in my early twenties, oh boy could I party it up. Not anymore, things change, my body has changed, my tolerance has changed, and I’m okay with that. I had my share of parties. With that said, you all have a great weekend, and above all, be safe!!!

  • Well, that is all for me. I will see you in my next post. Please be kind to all animals. Have a blessed day.ย  And donโ€™t forget!

    For with God nothing shall be impossible.
    Luke 1:37 NKJV

    Until next time

      I’m a dingbat. Grimm is on Fridays, so I DVR-it. I meant Once Upon a Time, which is on Sundays. …I also promise that I am not a tv-holic!

      First off, let me just tell you how jealous I am of your grey and white chevron background. I love it! I work in social media/content marketing, and write for several clients in the Evanston/Greater Chicago area. I love blogging about the river being turned green! I hope that you and William enjoyed your green beer and Leprechaun marathon–I’ll also be tuning into the Walking Dead Tonight, and Grimm as well. Have a great day!

      When I lived in Milwaukee, I worked out of a Chicago regional office for Apple. Chicago is a wonderful city, and the green river is fun!

      I totally agree that people need to be safe. Drinking and driving is so scary!

I am so happy my hosting migration has gone well. Lots of trouble shooting and cleanup to do with some of the scripts. That is what's keeping me occupied. Anyway, I hope your day is going well ๐Ÿ™‚.

Todays furbaby is ThorBaby. ThorBaby and his brother were adopted together. I love when siblings are kept together. And what a lovely story behind the name. What a fantastic way to pay tribute not only to the veteran behind his name, but for all veterans. ThorBaby is living his best life in Minnestoa with his human, Eileen Weatherby.

    Hello, everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹.ย Happy Tuesday! It is a nice day Hello, everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹.ย Happy Tuesday! It is a nice day today. The sun is out, although the clouds come and go and hide the sun now and then, but overall nice, cold but nice. I have been dealing with my new hosting provider and it is really upsetting me that they can't fix a simple log in issue for my cpanel and WHM. All I can do is wait. Thankfully, they got back to me and it has been resolved, yay!

There is a feral male tuxedo boy that I have named Mittens, I also call him kitty kitty LOL. But his name is Mittens. We recently covered our deck furniture for the cold season, and after putting the cover over it, and it being windy and all, it has frightened him, and won't stay in the cat house he was staying in before we covered the furniture. It is heartbreaking to me, because I was getting him to trust me, now it feels as if I am starting over again. But I am not giving up on that precious boy. I consider him my tuxedo boy, and I will do what I can to help him, feed him, give him shelter. And maybe one day, he will let me pet him and maybe even pick him up. We shall see. Wish me luck. Anyway, I hope your day is going well ๐Ÿ™‚.

Todays furbaby is Sylvie, awe what a cute name for an adorable mini panther. What a sweet little girl. And this article, I remember about that video going viral, poor kitty wasn't in the mood for that. I feel bad for the lady, but I feel more for the cat, because if any pet doesn't like that kind of activity, why put him/her through it. Poor baby. 

Sylvie is living his best life in New York with her human, Kathy & Jason Davin. Sylvie is also from my copy of the pageaday.com desk cat calendar.

    Hello, everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹.ย Happy Monday! It was nice to st Hello, everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹.ย Happy Monday! It was nice to stay home over the weekend. It's felt like we had been out and about for the last few weeks. Since we were going to have a lot of rain, staying home and getting things done around here was the way to go. Since the holidays are upon us, I expect we'll be out and about a lot again. Anyway, I hope your day is going well ๐Ÿ™‚.

    Hello, everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹.ย Happy Friday๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿถ. Today, I was bu Hello, everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹.ย Happy Friday๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿถ. Today, I was busying trying to get my hosting together, I am moving my websites to a new host, and that can be a pain in the butt sometimes. I seem to be playing email tag with them, and I would like to get my stuff transferred as soon as possible, ugh! Plus they are using AI now, which is going to make it more difficult, I like dealing with a live rep. Wish me luck on that. 

I don't recall if I mentioned that I have scheduled my gall bladder removal surgery for next month. I am a bit nervous. I watched a full length video on how they do it, unfortunately that video is from 14 years ago, but I get the idea of how it is done. I will be glad to have it done and over with. Recovery will be a few days, with pain meds which I hear I will need. My husband will stay with me at home a few days in case I need him. I really don't want him to take time off just for this, but I know he wants to be here for me, which I appreciate so very much. Anyway, I hope your day is going well ๐Ÿ™‚.

Today's furbaby is Tosia, awe look at this sweet sleeping furbaby, I love watching my girls sleep, and I take photos of them, because it is so sweet, just like precious Tosia. I would have liked to walk my girls on a leash, but they are senior girls now, and will live their lives out inside, and in the catio as well. If I ever get another kitty, which I probably will, but not until my girls are gone. And trust me I am in no hurry. I want them with me forever, but I know that is not possible. Anyway, Tosia is living her best life in Poland with her human, Anna Faka. Tosia is also from my copy of the pageaday.com desk cat calendar.

    Hello, everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹.ย Happy Thursday๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿถ. I have been s Hello, everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹.ย Happy Thursday๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿถ. I have been searching for an original LG power adapter for my ultra-wide monitor, and a lg parts website sells them for almost $79 which is outrageous, we purchased the monitor 5 years ago for a little over $300, so paying $79 for the adapter is crazy. I found another place that sells an original new adapter for $40 which is much better, that is what I thought I would find it for at the lg parts store. Why do they inflate the price so much, just crazy.

Today was laundry day, and I had been noticing when the dryer is done, and I go to get the finished clothes from the dryer, that the dryer is still at 1 minute and has not cooled down. So my husband will need to check it. I found a few threads on Reddit that have similar issues, so hopefully we can get that taken care of. He fixed the heating element, saving us hundreds of dollars from purchasing a new dryer, so I pray this can get fixed. Speaking of laundry, I need to go get my last load, then prep dinner. Anyway, I hope your day is going well ๐Ÿ™‚.

Today's furbaby is Meeko, look at this sweet furbaby, and he has extra toes, how adorable. Meeko was a sick baby, but has made a full recovery, and look at him now. He is living his best life in Ohio with his human, Megan Schillereff. Meeko is also from my copy of the pageaday.com desk cat calendar.
