Hi JoanneJoanne3366 wrote: »Good evening;
Vix-I love your stained glass dove. I hope your tooth can be saved.
Roger-I have my living room lights hooked up to wireless remote. So much easier than having to get up and turn each individual light on and off.
Irene-congrats on finding a nickel.
I went to the dentist after work to get my teeth cleaned, no cavities.
My NS came today. I just finished unpacking it and discovered 1 extra breakfast.
I also got a postcard in the mail from NS with a much lower priced than I am paying. I am going to call them and ask for the lower price.
Have a good evening.
As I think I mentioned I have a table lamp hooked up to one of wireless and I will be hooking up the Christmas tree lights to another. If I did not do that I would be scratching the heck out of myself reaching around and through the tree. I may hook up another table lamp to the third one, I have not decided yet. The Lights in the Window are on a switched outlet so that is no problem.
Yesterday the two CFL lights in the fixture over the sink that we leave on 24-7 to have some illumination on the ground floor had both burned out. I replaced them with on CFL and on LED. It seemed like a good way to be sure that the LED lights actually live up to their longevity claims. What seems to go bad on the CFL lights is the electronics in the base of them, Since I am sure that the LED lights need some sort of electronics I am wondering if they hold up.
Congratulations on the Zero Cavities.
Every now and then I get a extra NS and other times I might be sort a item, So usually I do not complain about it as I figure it averages out.
Good Luck getting the Lower price

Hi all.
Thanks....I really like working with stained glass.
Roger, I told hubby about the wireless remote and he just ordered some for outdoors for our lights, so he doesn't have to go outside to switch them off.
Irene, cool about money found walking.
Jo, yay for no cavities.
I hope I can save my tooth.
Also made an appt for next week with a podiatrist...my heels are killing me. Wish I was in better shape!
Went for a walk in the park today, my new hiking boots are nice.
Hope everyone has a good evening. Sleep well.0 -

Hi
I'm back home from walking and not one penny was found. The Temperature out the door was 33 degrees and there was a light breeze that did not make the walking uncomfortable.

I am sorry to hear that Your shoulder is hurt, I do know what You mean, I did that a couple of years ago and it took awhile since I avoided going to the doctor. I hope the heat on the shoulder helps.
From what I saw You got lucky as far as the snow in Your area.
Have a Good Day

Hope everyone has a good evening. Sleep well.
I am happy with the remotes for the lights, they really are convenient. I think I will put one on the table lamp with the 150 watt bulb. The other table lamp in the living room had a 60 watt equivalent CFL in it and that is OK for my Brother since it is next to his chair, The other one is next to mine.
When I was working the last job one of my regular customers was so happy he had bought custom made shoes, he did walk much better afterwards. I gather they were not cheap but life is to short to live with foot pain that can be cured with something so simple as shoes that a foot doctor prescribed.
Hopefully the new hiking boots cure the problem and You do not need to go for custom designed shoes.
Good Luck

good morning, my shoulder is a little better still stiff but at least most of the pain is gone. Roger we have Alexa from amazon it works great we have all our light, Christmas tree and most everything is turned on that way we even tell Alexa what time for the alarm should be set. George has everything connected to it ,it sure makes life easier. Vix hope your feet fell better it is hard when your feet hurt. Hey jo0

Good morning.
Glad your shoulder is starting to feel better, Irene.
Hi Jo.
Roger, my heels have been hurting for a while. I expect to be able to get some kind of shoe insert. I have a couple of them now that help somewhat.
Glad I have no appts today...so many things to catch up with!
Happy Friday, everyone. 0 -
Good evening;
Roger-I called NS today and got a lower price than the one on the postcard that they sent me.
I am happy.
Vix-A few years ago my heels started hurting me. I went to the podiatrist and he suggested that I wear shoes with a slight heel. I have been buying Clark's and have not had any problem since. My feet will start to hurt if I wear flats or sneakers for more than 2 days in a row.
Irene-I hope you shoulder feels better soon.
Have a good evening.0 -

I would think that for Alexa to do that the devices must be Internet connected ? And possibly in the case of the lights extra hardware that Alexa can control. TBH I can not think of any reason we would have a use for something like Alexa, add to that my brother not wanting anything that can hear or see in the house and no Alexa or Amazon Firestick.
Have a Good Day

I wonder if a custom insert would work better ?
I really need to get started on Christmas cards too.
A day with nothing is nice, enjoy

If I am not being nosy what price did You get and what discount too ? I am wondering if it would behoove me to try for a better price ?
I am not completely surprised that he suggested shoes with a bit of a heel. The same thing can happen from lack of arch support.
Have a Nice Day

Hi Roger- I was paying $359. I got a postcard in the mail for $249 on first order and $269 on subsequent orders with auto delivery. When I called them the first person I spoke to said I couldn't change. I would have to cancel and resign up. I was transferred to another line to cancel.
I explained what I wanted. She put me on hold while she talked with her supervisor. When she came back on the line she quoted me a price of $256.99 on all future orders with auto delivery. She was super helpful and also gave me a few tips on how to rev up my metabolism.
I was super happy. 0 -
good morning, Jo I were Clark shoes I love them. Good job on getting ns at a lower price I pay the 269.00 which is fine. Vix hope they can help with your feet. Roger we love Alexa makes our life so much easier . My exercise this morning was awesome we did our normal hour walk and the temp was like 16 but we bundle up so I was warm. Then I got on the treadmill for 20 minutes I need to up my exercise didn't go fast but I did get an hour in. take care everyone0

Hi all.
Went wedding dress shopping with my future DIL, her Mom, and one of her friends. It was fun even thought the sales associate wasn't very good. She will look around some more.
Jo, please share any good tips on boosting metabolism. Good work on getting a bargain.
My daughter's other shower is tomorrow, so I may bake some cookies tonight to bring, else I'll pick something up tomorrow on the way. I'm pretty tired.
I think I am better off with shoes with a slight heel, and with better arch support. My custom inserts are old and don't really do much anymore. I'll see what the Doc says next Friday.
Happy Saturday, everyone. Have a good night. 0 -

Wow, That is a great price, congratulations. I have been wondering how long You need after a cancel before being considered a new customer, Did they mention how long.
I just checked and I am paying substantially more than that, I smell a phone call coming up in the future.
Thank You

For myself once I found a model of New Balance pair of shoes that fit good from the start and until they are worn out I have been buying the exact model of them.
I was just looking at my upcoming order and I found 4 different frozen Dinners That look delicious. They would be Chicken Marsala, Creamy Chicken Broccoli Pasta, Four Cheese Manicotti, and Mac and Cheese.
Today was a nicer day except that the clouds obscured the sky. That may mean that it will be a somewhat gloomy day today.
Congratulations on the walk and Exercise

I have little tolerance for less than helpful or informed help. When that happens I move on quickly to someplace else.
My memory must be slipping since I thought You had a shower already.
I am not completely surprised, Even the best inserts wear out.
Good Luck at the Docs
