Hi
I'm back from walking again and No cents. The temperature this morning was 17 on the porch and 19 on the cable news channel, lower than yesterday. There was a bit of a wind chill too. I was casting a shadow due to the very bright moon this morning.
The scale was nicely lower than yesterday morning, again, It seems that the "Time-restricted eating" combined with a 100% NS plan is working really well so far. Whee

Apparently the moon is not visible from my yard this morning, but as I had braved the 28 degrees to see, instead of any super blue moon eclipse pictures, I offer the breaking dawn behind the treetops across the road.
At any rate, I didn't need to stay out long to view the eclipse, since I couldn't see it at all.

On the news yesterday they had a segment that stated that a slice of Pizza was better for a person than a bowl of cereal due to having the same calories and better nutrition, I'm not sure I concur FWIW
I would think that the right cereal with slices of fruit and due to the Proteins in the cereal and milk and using Sweetener instead of Sugar would be as good for a person.
It was cold out there here too, however I did get out walking. I got out the door to late to see the eclipse.parityanimal wrote: »Howdy y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! 28 out there now with an expected high of 53 and 0% chance of precipitation. Might pop outside, briefly (because it's *KITTEN* cold out there!), to see if the eclipse is visible or not. Haven't checked to see if it's cloudy yet, as I can do that when I get out there and not have to rely on the weather page to tell me what I can see for myself.
I'll bring my hot tea with me, and my phone, in case of any photo ops.
I've eaten, some chicken flavored ready rice and some plain, full fat, Greek yogurt. Dinah was happy to lick the paper bowl from the yogurt but Kiara wanted to bury it.
The pigs...er cats are eating their flaked tuna kitty cat entrée now. I tried Lilo on a different dry food and she ate ALL her food yesterday, so I think maybe (crossed fingers) that I've found something she really likes, and is healthy for senior cats too. If she continues in this vein with the rest of the free sample I picked up at the vet (while picking up her medical supplies for the Tuesday morning shots) then I'll buy a full size bag of the stuff and give it a try.
Need to clear the sink. I DID get all the laundry folded and put away yesterday. And, of course, this morning I put "away" the clean grills that had been air drying overnight. I didn't really put them "away" of course, just got them off the counters where they were, and back out of the way, but very handy for the next grilling. Last night's grilled smoked sausage, potatoes, and onions really hit the spot and J said his Indian spiced potatoes, cauliflower, and onion were good too.
Good Luck with the Cat Food

Hi ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »Yikes...so much to address!
Carbonated soft drinks...not just Cokes, are supposedly not good for bones, and since I battled osteoporosis for awhile, it was enough to make me give up a life long habit. Mom used to day that when they had folks over to visit, you had to hold on to your drink, or watch me really carefully. Apparently I'd crawl over and steal drinks!!!
And yes I will keep fb...the dirty rats, cuz I'd miss it. I still keep up with some of the original NS'ers, and family...like the 2 nephews in CA. and my SIL in Texas, etc...It just irritates me, that after about 10 years they decide I can't be Garden Kat.
Our temps are going down, down, down tonite. It managed to get a bit below freezing last night, but tonite they're saying 25 degrees. I want my warm weather back she whines!!!
Any rational person or organization might think that You were a real person, especially if they took into account what You have been doing those 10 years.
I want warmer weather too
That is weird to me, Our oven does not seem to do much to warm our kitchen when in use, that includes the long hours roasting the Thanksgiving Turkey.I had a nice warm kitchen, dining room and living room for awhile this evening...Roasting veggies at 425 degrees will warm things up in a hurry! In the summer I'll use the toaster oven if I just HAVE to bake something....and I"m not going to look it up right now, but at least in the past the wattage of microwave ovens were/are high enough to off set any financial gain over the toaster oven, or the gas oven...I don't know that is still true though...
The pizza eating kitten cracked me up. Persistence must be its middle name! Reminded me of a young cat that Jack's college roommate had...if they ordered Chinese take out...the cat got the biggest piece of broccoli, and she'd straddle that broccoli and growl and fluff up if she even 'thought' you might have eyes on 'HER' broccoli!!!
No, Ed as you may have guessed already I did not grill. Now I don't even recall why not! Probably got all outta shape over the fb thing.
Today it is a 'new' thing....I have my tax papers and decided to do my Turbo Tax today. I mean its only 5 or so pieces of paper. Last year's taxes paid on house, and SS and my 401k distribution and the forced distribution I have to take each year... how wrong can it go???
I got the last of the papers needed to file in Monday's mail.
Just curious, are You running the TurboTax software on the computer or doing it online ? Since everything is the same this year as last year if I were filing a paper copy I could actually just copy everything from the 2016 except the signature date and it would be doneWell, I'm going to have to start over...I supposedly owe the gov't $12....what?? everythings pretty much exactly what it was last year...and I got a hefty $600+ refund. Wait, what the heck? I've messed something up! Jack called and brought that to a screeching halt, which is probably a good thing. I'll get a good nights sleep, and start over tomorrow.
Meanwhile, kitchen is cleaned, dishwasher is running, clothes are all washed for me...hairy cat load of towels and furniture throws still needs to be washed and dried...BUT all the clean clothes, towels, bathrobe, etc are waiting for me on my bed. In other words, no sleepy til foldy happens. (spell check not to happy about 'foldy', but I'm sure you two will get it!)
And with that thought in mind...a folding I must go........
Later...
Oh, ED...I posted a 3+ minute video this morning that you need to watch...it has fascinated me. From one extreme sized look at our universe, down to a tiny one atom.
Roger I can't seem to find a link that will email...I wanted to send it to Ted today...but the web site is 'physics-astronomy.com'. The video is 'Smiling Face' and its on about page arrow right on most watched video...I think that will make sense when you get to the web site.
Best video I've seen in quite awhile...in the 'educational' category!
Oh look look! I missed the State of the Union address...er State of the Union Wouldn't do my blood pressure any good to have watched. I'll see it all on he 11p news, and all over my news feeds on my iPad. Pity!!!
True, the Firefox spell checker is showing foldy in the red wavy underline that says correct me. If I thought I would be using it much I would just add it to it's dictionary
I did not see that Smiling face in a post by You. I'm feeling stupid since I just tried to look for it on the site and was unsuccessful
I tend to ignore news that bashes anything for any reason. There is too much hatred in the world without me having to see it too.
Can I guess You are not a POTUS fan ?
Have a Nice Day

Hi
Nor did I, I did offer to put it on for my brother to watch if he was interested
We watched the second half of an hour long Diners, "Drive-Ins and Dives" and a Family Feud instead.
Cheers

Hi
I'm back from walking again and No cents. The temperature this morning was 30 on the porch and 32 on the cable news channel, Warmer than yesterday. The sky was overcast and there is precipitation in the forecast, the weather forecasts seem to be unable to decide if it will be snow, rain or a mix.
It seems that the "Time-restricted eating" combined with a 100% NS plan is working really well so far. Whee

Howdy y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! 41 out there now with and expected high of 58 and 40% chance of p.m. showers.
I need to get a few things from the store so obviously should try to get those in the a.m. hours.
Sink needs to be cleared of yesterday's cat bowls. Dishwasher is running now. I've eaten and the cats are awaiting their breakfast. Lilo is in my lap and was trying her best to help me type.

I like Denny's food once in a while and I like the senior discount there too. I wouldn't have wanted to be at that one at that time though!

Well...that's rather amusing. And ironic, but I can see that a normal plumber would not be able to do anything with an airline toilet as they aren't really plumbing.

I had never even heard of a lot of these grocery stores. Not at all surprised to see Aldi and TJ's near the top. Ingles looked pretty good in the ratings too, and even though it's not a big presence here, I do like the store I go to. The only Martin's I've ever seen was, curiously enough, in Martinsburg, WV.

Hi! Home from Gymnastics, cat and I just ate. Cat is in a pissy mood today...this morning I was holding, petting, rocking and the little 'kitten' tried to bite me...did the same later this afternoon when I got home from the gym...wonder what the heck I did wrong????
Roger, glad the intermittent eating is working well for you! I pretty much do that all of the time. It is a 'thing', and it works for some. It seems to me an easy thing to do. I'm not sure I buy into some of his 'theories' though. He's d@mn good at cherry picking his facts, and documenting where he found his facts is non-existant! That said, diet is very much an individual thing, and if it works for you roll with it!!!
I showed up at the gym today! Was good to see everybody. They were all amused that I took the month of January off...cuz of the newbies or new sneakers as they are often known by! I spent many frustrating Januarys....no more! The owner was there, and gave me a big hug and welcome, explaining the the wide eyed (new) young lady at the desk, that I was 'family'!!!
And I went just gonna walk half hour...and Buzz (owner) said they'd gotten the new piece of equipment in that our trainer was so excited to get...so I had half hour to kill before the class started for it. I'd tell you the name, but I don't think I ever looked for a name...its a 'something 360' I'll check that out tomorrow, if I can get to the gym...lots of cardio, and that new thing is all upper body...shoulders, back, arms, etc. One of the things is something I'd seen before, but never used...its two ropes and your alternate lift and 'flip'..like you'd do a towel out of the dryer...anyhow, because you alternate right and left arms, those ropes dance in a wave like motion...I could do the right arm, but didn't have the strength to make that left rope dance!!!. I know that ropes like that were used at Golds Gym in a 'special training' area that you paid extra to work with the trainer. Always fascinated me..today more like frustrated me!!
Ok, cat's outside, I'm ready to pack it in and get some sleep.
BTW Roger, since I skipped breakfast today, I ate a light lunch about 3p, a big salad at 5p from Sweet tomatoes, and a toasted sandwich when I got home from O's gymnastics class...and I did it in a 7 hour window!!! It was not intentional...just worked out that way.
Later...0 -
Oh, also of interest...I found quite an article on this 10,000 steps a day. Seems its based on some study done in Japan in the late 1800's!!! Who knew??? LOL!!
