Grey Dome in Full Effect

So here in Michigan we have begun the nearly six months of living in a snow globe of clouded skies and no sun in sight.

Talk about needing an IV drip of vitamin D LOL!

As always a special shout out of thanks to @ace108 for hosting #beautifulSunday!!!

Even though the weather was not too good, I went out for a nice walk in the morning and saw this pretty feather on the ground.

I was kind of chilly after my walk, so decided to make a big bowl of vegetable soup!

This is my kitchen sink soup because it has a bit of everything in it but the kitchen sink!

Winning 33 SBD was a good way to start the day off right. I did a post on it here

Plus,

It Was a Pleasant Day Because the Old Guy Bought Some New Toys!

Here in the video I show what I bought.

Basically I bought a Blue Yeti microphone along with a pop filter and an extendable mic stand.

My son Ben has used a Blue forever and still likes it, so I thought I would try it too.

Dont Judge Me, But...

I saved $10 by ordering the white out edition. Ben has the blackout and it looks really cool.

Hey ten bucks is ten bucks, know what Im sayin?!

Because its was Veterans Day

And my uncle was in the Big One, WW2,

I took some photos of my uncle's navy knife that I inherited.

My uncle was like a dad to me, and I owe him so much.

My uncle carved in the leather sheath all the places he had been while in the navy.


Of course, Julius being a good Hungarian name!

I Tell a Funny Story about My Uncle in this Short Video.

I have been having a fun time setting up my studio.


Sharing a bottle of wine virtually with a Steemit friend is priceless :)

I love Lambrusco because it goes down like fruit juice...YUM!!!

My typing and spelling which is never good, apparently takes a hit after a bottle of Lambrusco

But hey, at least I think Im funnier!!! LOL

I hope you had a #beautifulsunday! ;)

You really scored with Santa with the new toys! I am pretty sure Santa would have sprung for the black one! Just saying.

I hope you had a Happy Veterans Day. Lots of activity here in the Metro area, as always. A lot of military presence here also. So many bases and forts circle the Pentagon which is filled with more military. So, these holidays are well presented.

Drinking and driving the computer? So it isn't so! Friends shouldn't let friends drive that keyboard drunk. You know what I mean? Here is hoping that Michigan has a few sunny days left before old man winter really sets in.

Have a great night! Upped and Steemed

I wouldnt say I was drunk texting, just possibly a wee bit impaired though :0 Of course that being the case I am by means responsible for anything said, or not said, or thought or mistyped or misthought or...lol

You just left yourself wide open for selective interpretation.

Are you implying my iron clad legal disclaimer is not so iron clad lol???

Let's just say it has whine wine holes in it.

Well I guess that could be the case. I tell ya, one must be careful who they hang out with. Some friends are a bad influence. First thing you know you start staying up late, then the drinking starts...its downright sinful! LOLOL

I'm telling.

I mean, whisper in my ear his her name. Honestly, you just can't be too careful nowadays!

I am sure your mother would tell you to stay away from bad influences! I know mine would ground me.

OMG I just noticed you had "his" on there! Im glad that is crossed out. I dont stay up late, drinking wine talking to dudes! SHEESH! You darlin, are a troublemaker, arent you!

Oh you are tricky! Sorry, but I never kiss and tell ;)

I'm glad that as you say Christmas has arrived early for you, I hope you enjoy the mouse pad and the Yeti microphone, what we do have to talk about is vitamin D, not intravenous, of course, but it is not a bad idea to take it in tablets (I'm telling you as a physician), 6 months without sun is a long time...

Yes indeed. A very good point. Many people in this area have vitamin D levels that are too low. I do in fact take the tablets. I think more and more people are becoming aware of it. Thank you for raising a serious side to my silliness! :)

Even in tropical countries there is deficiency of vitamin D, what can i say of areas where there is no sun, excellent that you take care of your bones, good for you :)

It is always good to save 10 bucks.

Congrats on your win!! How fun!

Thank you it was rare and fun!

You will survive the winter for sure.

DO you know why ?

Your soup is the best medicine for every weather.

I would love to taste it my friend sooo much ;)))

Stay warm ;)

Thank you! Enjoy the nice weather there as you get settles in.

Thanks my friend ;)

I think the knife is really something. no warm sunday but hot soup is the good idea for the #beautifulsunday

What an awesome microphone! Wine with Steemits! Sounds like a Discord channel I'd go to! :-) In the meantime visit us at SteemLife- https://discord.gg/PcyJbNN

Hey Chris! Good to see you. I will do that and check in soon! Thank you.

Another awesome post Paul, you could almost be in the UK with those grey and cloudy skies - only we get that all year round lol. Nice scoop on the Mic, it seems somehow my son has decided Santa is bringing him a gaming PC and a set up to do YouTube videos. I think Santa needs to do alot more posting on Steemit!
