    Katla~ I would put headphones on,but it is all visual with him he would still go wild lol... even the commercials with animals on it he goes bonkers...
    think I will stay here tonight, I fed DFIL breakfast,and lunch... and will go in the am to feed him...still on oxygen but his lungs are clear so thats good.. .. I asked about him being hospitalized ,and they said why do that? why confuse him and put him somewhere he isnt familiar.... so I trust there judgement...

    The movie we wanted to see was sold out. So disappointed. My partner told me to buy tickets online this morning, but since we were planning to see the 3D version I was sure there would be plenty of seats since the tickets are more expensive. I should have listened to her!

    Bonnie ... the spoiler is under the thing that looks like a backwards p ... called format if your cursor hovers over it. It's one of the choices along with quote and code.
    thanks!!

    We’ve only managed 9 miles so far today. I think my foot has a few more miles left in it for today.

    Photo of my foot. ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️. Graphic photo. Don’t look unless you like gross things.

    Your version of gross and mine are very different, that’s not gross in my book

    Funny Pip!

    I have a friend that was in a bad accident and came close to losing his lower leg. He had some serious incisions. Every one would tell him to cover it up. I was down on the floor commenting on how neat the stitches were :smiley: Blood I don’t do well with, incisions fascinate me.

    I've been somewhat productive today. I exchanged a bunch of clothes for my son, sewed on two buttons, scoured the turkey roaster, and packed up some Christmas wrap and packaging.

    I received an instant pot for Christmas, and now I'm wondering what to make in it. I probably need to get the instructions out and give 'em a good read. I also need to watch a video on how to assemble a bicycle, and how to change watch batteries. I'm going to get out my nifty knitter and start another hat. I like to carry a project with me to keep my hands busy when I'm waiting. I'm wearing one of my Christmas gifts: a red t-shirt with a white silhouette of a chow chow, and Vader lettered across it. My daughter ordered it special, and I love it.

    After a nice, long thunderstorm last night, it was sunny and nearly warm today. We had a shingle blow off the roof, so now we need to find someone to do a repair. I'm sure it's an easy fix; it's getting up there that's the problem.

    Skim read some of the pages, but there are too many to comment on.

    Heather/Mary: Condolences for your sad losses. Especially poignant at this time of year.

    Family visitors went home today. We had a lovely walk on the beach on Boxing Day. We missed our local Boxing Day Swimmers as we were later than usual. Then we went to see Spider-Man at the cinema. Tomorrow I will have to get some fresh produce for the weekend.

    Hope everyone had a joyous Christmas.

    My Christmas decorations will definitely stay up till Epiphany at least, and usually till Australia Day. :) I like the decorations and figure 2 months is almost too short.

    I am on your page. It takes so long to get everything out that I do not start to take things down until Epiphany too. I get most indoor down by MLK day here. Outside lights stay out until the end of January. It tends to be cold and dark here so I like leaving outside lights out longer. At the end of the season last year I got an lighted angel that is praying for the outside. This year I bought the store display of two white doves. I have them by the angel and they look perfect there. The angel and birds stand right by the steps to our front door.

    :heart:

    Way back when, I did deliveries for Canada Post for a little while, and I really appreciated the people who left their lights and things up throughout December and January. My deliveries were usually late afternoon as it was getting dark, and seeing the lights just brightened my day. :)

    M – when is Australia Day? I’m shooting to get all the decorations down and put away before we go to FL. Hope it happens

    January 26th ... but because it's a Saturday this year, we'll get the next Monday off instead.

    I have often ended up taking the decorations down that weekend because I've got a bit of time to do it. Last year, I took a summer course, and didn't get my decorations down until early Feb.

    Good evening. I’m new here and will try to be a regular. I see there are some Brits in the group, some Americans too?
    I’m trying to motivate myself to get back into an active lifestyle; since hitting my mid fifties I’ve lost my desire to exercise. I’ve put on about 35 pounds and feel very much out of shape. I know all the right things to do and don’t do them. 🥺 Now I’m approaching mid sixties and want to head off avoidable serious medical issues.

    I'm a Canadian-Australian. :)

    Hi everyone! I just lost my message. ...., boy do I need a wide wide learning curve on how to use this myfitness pal. It's a wonder I found my way back. So many neat nooks and crannies. .. I used this app a few years back, it has definitely changed by leaps and bounds

    Took a baby step today and had my burger in a lettuce wrap. Forgot to add my calories in. Moving forward.

    Loved the color on the mixer one of my favorite colors. Retro I love retro.
    Now I hit post reply and not done😉

    I live in Camas Washington.

    Went and got the second dose of the Shringix vaccine. I told Vince to do it earlier but he didn’t. Now we got it when he went on Medicare and it cost $168. It cost $0 for me. Oh well….. Then stopped at WalMart to get a few things. Called Lynette to see if they were coming New Years Eve. She said she was busy with Christmas (?) and didn’t have time to email me. It takes that long to say “we’ll be there”. Oh well. Now deciding on the dinner. It think we’ll have ham (I’m not much of a ham eater), corn, mashed potatoes, I know Lynette likes macaroni & cheese, I’ll make a sweet potato for me and broccoli stir fry. I’ll also make a cheese sauce and have that on the side. For dessert I’ll make an apple pie (I’m going to try it again) I know Vince doesn’t like cheese, so I’ll give the rest of the mac & cheese and cheese sauce to Lynette.

    Allie – this blended fruit, do you maybe use the baby fruit?

    Rori – what is the diameter of that pizza crust? Someone said it was available at WalMart, going to check. Dillon Ice Castles sounds amazing. Have a great time

    Katla – I’m with you on the snakes. If one even comes on the TV, I shut my eyes

    If it’s raining tomorrow, I’ll do the Reebok Cardio Tone DVD. I believe they’re calling for rain and I have no desire to go out with my big gym bag in the rain. This is the second time recently this has happened to me.

    Beth – so glad you were worried for nothing

    Okie – I have a cousin who would get sick at the sight of her menstrual blood. Guess what she became? An OR nurse!!!

    I gave Denise an Instant Pot for Christmas. When I go up in May I’m looking forward to making yogurt in it. Wonder how it’ll turn out?

    OK, I tried putting the Christmas pictures in a spoiler so that they wouldn’t take up a whole lot of room. Yet, when I clicked on “spoiler” all I got was “hide”. How can I get it so that the pictures show up? What am I doing wrong?

    :)Michele, Your pictures were all there but the format you used, meant that I had to click on each one individually to see it. They were great.

    When you post a photo, be sure to use the icon that looks like a landscape rather than the one that looks like a piece of paper. Then the photo will show up.
