Apart from the fact that Jo is short for Josephine (or Seósaimhthín, if you want the Irish version).

The shortened form of Joseph is spelled Joe (with the final 'e'). The Irish version of Joseph is is Seósamh.

Interestingly, the full name of my Irish father was Martin Joseph Cooke, which would be Máirtín Seósamh Mac Dhadhóc in Irish.

Happy Monday, all! Sprinkling of snow this morning, but much milder than it's been.

Okay... struggling a bit... but okay. I'm ready for warmer weather... and a vaccine... at some far off point.

Same here.  We got about 3-4" of snow this morning and now it's raining.  Temps are in the mid 30s and supposed to stay there till Thursday.  My BFF is coming for a visit on Thurs through the weekend

We had a brief rain early this morning. It's currently 64/17° and cloudy. Expecting another bout of rain this afternoon then a system change to bring a couple days of sunshine.

It's snowing back home in PA.

I like Thai  but mum is a bit ambivalent so I typically only have it when I'm home in PA.

I'm baking a small ham also sweet potatoes and pan-searing some Brussel  sprouts.

Hmmm, we're a quiet bunch lately ... suffering from the February malaise I suppose. Hmmm, malaise ...

[Bucket1]

You know it’s been a hot day when you drive home from work thinking the air has a bit of a chill to it but then realise it’s 30C outside

Nothing like a good "Malaise" for what ails you.     Hey, bro and Mum.
