    Good afternoon;
    Roger-According to Nissan Under specific driving conditions, hydraulic pressure may decrease and result in belt slip within the CVT. This may result in MIL illumination. Continuing to drive the vehicle in this condition can lead to accelerated wear and damage to the CVT. Nissan is proactively reprogramming the Transmission Control Module with updated CVT software to prevent decreased hydraulic pressure and belt slip from occurring. I hope this makes sense to you.
    Irene-I am sorry that your knee is still causing you pain.
    I found 27 cents today in the parking lot of work. I was informed that starting in a few weeks .I will be splitting my work time between 2 stores, luckily they are both about the same distance from my house.
    My landscaper came yesterday and cleaned up the yard and put down fertilizer.
    Hi Vix.
    Have a good evening. :)

    Hi Joanne
    Actually that does make sense to me. As I recall it a CVT transmission is designed to keep the engine speed within a narrow RPM range that gives the best emissions and Mileage. I just was not aware that Nissan was doing one. I hope it lasts well.

    Whee, 27 Cents, You got a small one day raise :)

    I am off today. I have nothing planned, just a relaxing day.
    Hope you all have a great day!

    If I said that sounds like a good way to spend the day.

    Good morning!
    I'm back...so nice to sleep in my own bed! My leg is really bothering me. Swimming this morning and I have an early acupuncture appt.
    Enjoy your day off, Jo!
    Hope your knee is feeling better, Irene.
    Roger, sounds like you had a nice Easter. Good to have frozen food for quick meals.
    Guess I'm lucky I missed Easter....no candy here. Although I did eat things I shouldn't have on vacation.
    Have a great day, everyone. :)

    Hi Vix
    Welcome back :)
    I wish I had missed Easter treats :( oh well, it only comes once a year.

    I am sorry to hear that Your leg is bothering You, Too much walking ?
    I always thought so too, Your own bed works best.

    Good Luck with Your knee and the running around.

    Hi
    I was out walking today and only did 4100 steps. The temperature this morning was 45/41 degrees. It is a nice day outside for walking, Not too warm and minimal breeze :)

    I have been busy shredding stuff that built up. I shred until the overheat light comes on and it stops in mid shred :(

    Have a Great Wednesday

    Roger, hope you are feeling better too.

    Hi
    I was out walking today and only did 5200 steps + 11 cents, I misread the weather and turned for home when it started raining on me, and me with no rain gear :) The temperature this morning was 53/51 degrees. It was a nice day outside for walking until the rain came :(
    I did get back outside yesterday afternoon and went shopping for Onions for my Brother and a quart of 1% long life milk for the pantry shelf. I am pretty sure I will use it up before February 20, 2018 :)

    Have a Great Thursday

    Hi Vix
    I'm glad You are feeling better now.

    I was doing OK this morning until the rain started getting my shoulders wet through the Hoodie. And I usually try to be prepared for anything too :(

    Hi all. Went to Pt this a.m. (it helped) then to my painting class. It was raining when I left, but is sunny and beautiful now. Have a chiropractor appt later this afternoon. So just going to catch up on some paperwork for now.
    Good luck with your prescription, Irene. Hope it helps.
    Roger, hope you're feeling better. Thanks for keeping the laughs coming. :)
    Hiya, Jo.
    I've been tired since getting home. The trip was really fun. the trip was fun....saw some really cool things...Hamilton Pool, Ladybird wildflower park, Zilker botanical gardens, Umlauf sculpture gardens, San Luis Spirits Distillery, the Alamo, San Antonio Riverwalk, McKinney Falls State Park, the bat cruise, etc!
    Hope you're all having a good day.

    Good afternoon;
    Vix-It sounds like you had a very nice vacation.
    Irene-I hope the prescription helps your knee feel better. Yes, I had a nice day off.
    I bought a teak patio set. I have had the fake wicker in the past and it just doesn't last.
    Roger-I hope you feel better soon. Congrats on finding 11 cents.
    I have a Dr. appt. this afternoon for the bumps I keep getting under my arm. I have noticed that I do not perspire under that arm. I called for a dermatology appt. and am still waiting to hear back from them, so I decided to go to my regular doctor. If he thinks I need to see the dermatologist maybe I can get an appt. sooner.
    Have a good afternoon! :)

    Anthropologist was taking lessons from a witch doctor in South America.

    The witch doctor said "this palm tree helps stop constipation."

    The witch doctor replied "with fronds like these who needs enemas?"

    Hi
    I was out walking today and did 5800 steps + 1 cent, The temperature this morning was 49/49 degrees. It was a nice day outside for walking until the rain came,
    i was prepared since I took my backpack with the rain jacket along, unfortunately I was facing into the breeze and the rain blowing into my face made me decide to shorten my walk :(
    I did get back outside yesterday afternoon and went for more steps bringing my step count for the day to a little over 10K when I arrived back home and over 11K by the end of the day :)

    I am currently converting a Episode of The Fat Man radio show from 1947
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fat_Man_(radio)

    the Fat Man became one of radio’s great icons with its opening:

    There he goes, into that drugstore.
    He’s stepping on the scales.
    Weight: 239 pounds.
    Fortune: Danger.
    Who is it?
    THE FAT MAN
    :)

    That will be followed with
    The new Adventures of The Thin Man- The passionate Palooka July 6, 1948

    Have a Great Friday

    Hi Irene
    That works for me as a reason for Your liking the rain. There seems to be a chance of rain in the forecast for a lot of days in a row.

    Hopefully the pain meds help

    That is good news that the PT helped.
    I am feeling OK, I am avoiding my Brother however as he has come down with something. I hope it clears up quickly for him.

    It sounds as if You had a really great vacation.

    Have a Nice Day

    Hi Joanne
    Real Teak should last a lot better than fake wicker. I had never heard of fake wicker TBH :)

    I have heard of that happening with sweat glands. Hopefully it is not serious. If I stay away from sweets I tend to not feel the heat or sweat noticeably.

    Good Luck getting a earlier appointment

    It stopped raining here and the sun is coming in and out. It's very warm.
    We have fake wicker chairs on our porch...they're white....some sort of plastic, but woven like wicker.

    I am on antibiotics and have to go for a recheck in 2 weeks. Dr.'s office also made a derm.appt for me but it isn't until July with the nurse practitioner. The dermatologist was booking into 2018. There must be a lot of people with skin ailments. By the time I get to see someone it may be cleared up. I would rather see someone while I am having a flair-up.
    Have a good afternoon and stay dry. :)

    Wow! Much easier to get an appt with a dermatologist around here....probably within 2-4 weeks. I hope it clears up for you, even though the Dr. may not see it.

    And once again I posted more humor this morning, enjoy :)

    I suspect Vix already found them too :)

    Hi
    I was out walking today and did 7660 steps, The temperature this morning was 51/53 degrees. It was a nice day outside for walking until the rain came as I was heading back home, I was prepared just in case as I took My rain jacket along. I did not put the rain jacket on as it was a light drizzly type of rain and the Hood on the Hoodie protected my head and the hoodie was enough to keep me dry for the last minutes.
    I did not get back outside yesterday :(

    On a different note. I may have mentioned that I ordered a New Shredder ? Anyway...
    I suspect that is why I woke up during the night with a sore left shoulder :( I did not lift it, I slid it and then when I took it down the stairs I laid it on the wide side and slid it down slowly from below letting friction and the rungs keep it to a safe speed.

    It came Yesterday, Talk about heavy duty as well as just plain heavy. 66 Pounds shipping weight, Labels saying Two man Lift and and Team lift. I suspect from two different sources. It is a beast and came with a bottle of Oil to lubricate the cutting wheels each time You change the Bag or if not using a bag empty the Bin. The Bin is larger too. It does a more rectangular cut than the old one so I expect to use both, It is much faster too, It chews through CDs and DVDs easily and fast. The old one despite saying it shreds discs too often stalls on a overload and auto reverses making doing them frustrating. Bottom Line is that it was not cheap OTOH I went cheap a couple of years ago when I bought the last one at Staples and it only really worked well on paper. Live and Learn :)

    Tying into the First image of today's post
    I drove Moms 51 when I started driving and a 1964 Hawk Grand Turismo. That is the one with the Long hood.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studebaker_Gran_Turismo_Hawk
    Pictures for anyone curious can be found on that website.

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk

    Manufacturer Studebaker
    Production 1962-December 1963
    (1962-1964 model years)
    Assembly South Bend, Indiana, United States of America
    Australia [1]
    Body and chassis
    Body style 2-door coupe
    Layout FR layout

    The Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk (or GT Hawk), a sporty coupe sold between 1962 and 1964, was the final development of the Studebaker Hawk series that began with the Golden Hawk of 1956.
    It had the 289-cubic-inch (4.7 L) V8 engine (210 or 225 horsepower) teamed with a four-speed on the floor

    I seem to have developed a rash on my one arm :(
    Originally it seemed to start as a itchy bug bite and then spread into a itchy rash. I'm not sure what I want to do. As long as I do not scratch it I'm OK.

    Well it is not supposed to warm up very much today. It has dried up outside right now. I will have to look at the weather forecast for more info.

    Stay Warm and Dry

    Hi Joanne
    The weather forecast I saw yesterday showed chances of rain showers for most up the next 5 or 6 days :(

    I am amazed, I wonder what is going on where You are. Do You think it is worth checking for cancellations?

    I've been getting rashes too. Just put some anti-itch lotion on them. Works for a little while.

    Hi
    I was out walking today and did 7400 steps, The temperature this morning was 46/41 degrees. It was a nice day outside for walking.
    I did not get back outside yesterday, however I did hit my daily goal of 10K steps :)
    While I was walking I stopped at the produce store and picked up Bananas that were just green enough that the first one on the counter will ripen for Monday Morning and the rest went into the refrigerator. I also picked up Sweet Plums, Bartlett Pears and a 1 pound container of Strawberries for 99 cents.

    But most dog lovers have no idea how their animals cope once they have been left alone.
    Now scientists have revealed how dogs spend up to half an hour howling, barking and whining after their owner leaves them alone.
