WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR OCTOBER 2019

Michele - I used to do a lot of baking with the two older ones, but the problem is the big difference in ages. 8 - 3 is a big gap. This time we tended to separate the older ones together and Bea on her own. I hope to do some baking when we have just two of them, or one.
This morning I had done my machines and was about to start the mat work and weights when I got ambushed by an email from KDP publishing. I decided there and then to do my tax, which has to be in by the end of the month.
I managed it, with a lot of cussing, by lunch.
Posted it off this afternoon.
DH was struggling with the printer which had an item stuck in the queue that was preventing us from using it. He was very bad tempered, but persevered and had conquered it by the time I got back from a supermarket trip.
I made a delicious lamb, spinach and pea curry this evening. Perfect!!!!!
Much love, Heather UK XXXXXX3 -
Lanette: Thanks for your kind thoughts. I had no problems with my sinuses traveling to see DD & the kids but was clearly getting symptoms during the flights home. DGS had a constant runny nose from the time we got there until I left. Poor kid. I’m quite sure he was the source of my sinus infection. :ohwell:
(((Pip))) Sending good thoughts to your poor furbaby. I hope the vet finds a cause that is can be fixed.
Barbie: I haven’t been in the same state with my computer until yesterday. I’ll try to put the photos onto the computer as soon as I get my own health cleaned up. :ohwell:
(((Rori))) Good luck to your brother.
I have a 1:30pm appointment with my doctor to take a look at my possible sinus infection. I don’t know whether antibiotics will work, but I do know that I need to get sleep to heal and last night was sleepless.

Katla - I had a sinus infection a few years ago and I knew that is what it was. I suffered about 1.5 weeks and when I felt like my brain was oozing out my orifices, I went to Urgent Care. I felt better within hours after taking antibiotics and was mostly fully functional within 24 hours. Hope you feel better soon.2

Machka-- Very interesting about the music. Thanks for sharing.
Kim--Sorry the talk with your mom did not go well. But you know in your heart you only want what is best and that you love her. But when embrassed we all react different.
Rori--So sorry to hear DB is drinking again. I know we had a friend years ago staying with us and he would say he wanted to stop and then would sneak it in. Because I have a problem with drinking we had to ask him to leave as could not have it in the house. It has been over 13 years since I have taken a drink and I am stronger now, but still don't want it in the house.
KateUK--Sounds like a very stressful visit. Glad it was not heart and they are feeling better soon.
Pip--Sure hope the vet was able to help.
Well I did not have a good weekend. I did something to my back and was unable to move much. Did make it to church yesterday. I have slept with the tens unit on last 2 nights and does feel some better.

Michelle in NC - I don't know what you are trying to make with the gelatin; if you use Sure-Jell - you have to follow the directions right on, no changing the order of the directions. If you do - it will NEVER turn out; it will either be runny or very thick. I made some 'hot' pepper jelly once with every king of 'hot pepper' I could find (needed to add water to it at the beginning, but did not 'think' about that. So it came out like a thick spread. Tasted good but so thick we have to take a spoon to dig it out. At least when the hurricane hit, was without power for 5 days; so it got thrown out. Along with the plastic Tupperware where I had frozen my credit cards. Oh well; been 2 years and no activity on any of them.
I had a bit of trouble getting into MFP today; but, succeeded after changing password.

Drizzly day today. I have my DS's dog right now and usually take the dogs out for a run in the pasture but couldn't leave them out for long. Horses and goats are all huddling in their shelters. Still trying to figure out financing for new roof, very depressing.
Kim - Hope things work out with your mom.
Everyone take care Sue in WA6 -
Vicki - hope your back feels better soon.
Kate UK - sorry your weekend was stressful. The best laid plans............ Hope the heart infection clears up OK. ....
Just found out from Facebook that there is no dancing tomorrow. Good job I looked! I had bought easy food for an early dinner, but that's no problem. To be honest, I am not too sad as the change of venue has rather dampened my enthusiasm. It is now a long walk though the back streets, or having to take the car, instead of a nice short stroll along the sea front. We will go, but I am glad of the break.
DH's younger daughter has had a reprieve of her redundancy, after DH worried himself to death. She offered to go and take the money, but they begged her to stay!!! It is really only postponing the inevitable as the magazine is failing, but she loves the lifestyle.
I haven't heard anything from the cleaner. I will text her tomorrow.

Today is Back to the Future Day!
"In 'Back to the Future Part II,' Marty McFly travels to October 21, 2015, to save his children, yet to be born in 'Back to the Future's' 1985. ... As with other movies dealing with the future, such as '2001: A Space Odyssey' (set in the early 2000s) or 'Blade Runner' (set in 2019), the predictions of 'Back to the Future II' are hit or miss: big-screen TVs, yes, Mr. Fusion, no; virtual-reality goggles, yes, 'Jaws 19,' no."
SueBDew - Ooh, I'm envious of your fig tree! We had one at our last house but we had to move before I got any figs. Maybe this winter I'll plant one here.
Machka - A couple of weeks ago we met a man who was performing a live set at one of our local taprooms. It was just him, a guitar, and a "band-in-a-box," and he told us after the show that he also does performances at memory care facilities. He uses the band-in-a-box to mimic the original background music as best he can and adjusts his vocal style to make his performance as close as possible to the style the residents would have been familiar with. He says he's seen residents who were non-vocal break out into song during his performances. That research on music and Alzheimer's is just fascinating.
Okie - Oh, yes, reading in the bathtub is one of the biggest rewards of winter time! We bought an old clawfoot this spring and it's waiting for me to get it rehabilitated and installed in our larger bathroom in place of the conventional tub. I can't wait!
Pip - Your poor baby! Hope they got him fixed up at the vet.
Guess the little funk last week was allergies, because I never did get any worse and I'm feeling OK now. The plants around here have all gone haywire because the weather is so weird they don't know what to do and pollen counts are high.
Over the weekend we had an unexpected doggy visitor. As Philip and I were walking home from a restaurant in the dark, a big dog barked at us a bit then darted out into the street right in front of two cars. The second one very nearly hit him. I couldn't leave him running loose after that. He was wearing a tag with a phone number on it, but that number went straight to voice mail. So I posted to our community watch group on Facebook and got some clues about where he might belong. Eventually we just took the big goofball home with us and let him spend the night in our back yard. In the morning I googled the name that came up on caller ID when I called the number from the tag and was able to find an address and walk him over there. Just as we arrived I got a text from his owner, who didn't hear the voicemail until morning. So it worked out well for everyone and Goldy is home now. He was a sweet boy. We've gotten used to our Luna but it was fun to have a big dog around again!
Time to put on a bra... I'm going to take a quick break and go join a new gym. I mostly joined the first one to avoid having a buy a rowing machine. I did ask if they had them and they said yes, but I didn't actually look when I joined. Turns out what they call a rowing machine is really just a deltoid pull machine. Anyhow, my membership there expired so I walked in to the other gym last week to make sure they had real rowing machines. Think I'm going to get them to show me all the weight machines so I can get on a strength training program. Eventually I'd like to try free weights but until I build some muscle I'm probaby better off with the machines for now.

Pip- Yikes! Poor Floyd! Hope the doc was able to fix him up! Do your dogs have access to your backyard at night? Could he have met up with a cat or other animal? Maybe found a sharp spot on the fence? Poor guy!1
-
UPDATE on FLOYD: just picked him up from the doc. They cleaned him up some more. Hopefully he will stay calm enough and not shake his head to give his ear enough time to clog. If he starts bleeding again , will have to take him to the ER so they can cauterize to stop the bleeding. They didn’t have that at the vet. He as an appointment tomorrow for an ultrasound, he may have a tumor or cancer. We will know more tomorrow. Thank u all for your thoughts and prayers. This group is truly like no other. Will keep you posted, they are thinking cancerous polyps. Our kids are inside dogs, they don’t stay outside for the night

Shottzz99: Thanks for your good wishes. My doctor said that I am doing pretty well. My sinus infection was not surprise and she said that over the counter meds are as good as anything she can prescribe at this point. If I develop pneumonia or anything like it, she wants to see me again. :flowerforyou:
Sue in WA: We have a drizzly day today, too. I’m so tired from my travels that I’m happy to sit around in our house with DH, and catch up with this group. Little blessings are wonderful.
I loved my trip to be with DD and the grandkids. Their new home is in a tiny town in the Illinois countryside far from Chicago and other major cities. I’m sure she bought it from the estate of old-time hippies with a back to the land vision. The fireplace is grand. I saw no evidence of a furnace, so they may be cuddling around the fireplace in cold spells. I miss them so much. I am not a fan of the cold (respitraory infection) that I caught and I’m happy to be home.

Pip - hugs to you
Katla - I hope you feel better soon
I am cuddled up in a blanket on this cool evening, flipping channels between The Voice and our election. I’ve found I have more interest in the last few years than I did when I was younger.
I had an early morning this morning I woke up at 520 and could not get back to sleep, I ended up at work at 630 so I had a very productive day.
Hope everyone had a grand day.

Marianne – you reminded me of the cards. I usually do mine the day after Thanksgiving but this year we’ll be out by Jess. So I should probably get them done before Thanksgiving. I also make the pierogi shortly after Thanksgiving and freeze them.
Vicki – feel better fast

pip (((hugs))) and healing thoughts for Floyd.
Katla sinus infections can be so darned painful and stubborn. Can you stand in a hot shower for 10 minutes every hour? Sometimes that can help break through. Eucalyptus oil helps me too. Was hoping your MD could fix you up quickly but “If I develop pneumonia or anything like it, she wants to see me again. “ SMH :noway: “No evidence of a furnace” in Illinois in winter? They'll have to do more than cuddle I'm thinkin'.
Vicki hope you can take time to let your back heal. Your work schedule always sounds so daunting.
Lenora good to hear from you.
SueKuehn financing new roof very depressing, I hear you. We thought we could refinance our house to cover it, but the lender wouldn't loan a mortgage big enough. We ended up refinancing to lower monthly mortgage payment then took out a “personal” loan at too high an interest for 5 years to cover the rest. Increased our total monthly outgo by $125 for 5 years but then our mortgage payment will be almost $400 less than it was before the new roof. Hope things work out better for you.
Heather sure hope DH's daughter uses this reprieve to save save save! And polish up the resume and network
Was so eager to have fun with the burn barrel today, that I forgot to drop off the recycling on the way home from BB&B. Joe got the fire started right up thanks to a firelog and a little squirt of lighter fluid. The branches and brush I lopped were easy to feed into the barrel. It consumed at about the same pace as I loaded. Joe continued to limb up, then shortened the big branches to manageable size. We'll save some for for firewood. It was fun working together and we got all of the old piles done... but... Joe kept trimming more branches, cutting more brush and adding to the new pile. Had to remind myself that we didn't have to burn it all today, to keep from getting overwhelmed/discouraged. Thankful he's now open to limbing up the trees and cutting down the salal, he was so resistant the first two years, wanted to keep everything “natural”. But Sheesh, Joe, give it and me a rest! Funny how when they're “helping” it makes more work for us...
Lighter, lovelies!

Barbara - We have a modular home and that is causing part of the problem. We are trying to refinance and get enough for a steel roof. The home is only 12 years old and shingles are good but it was improperly installed. Nails are popping out leaving holes which then leak. Underlayment is not good either. We shall see, but may install cheaper roof and use personal loan if refinance does not work out.
Katla - Hope you recover quickly from the crud you brought home from your visit. When does next contingent arrive?
Pip - Hope Floyd I'd doing okay.
Everyone take care Sue in WA2 -
Good morning, all. Just taking 5 minutes with my morning cuppa to touch base. I have another full day today with Craft at 10.30am, Antiques/Collectibles at 2 pm, and Crochet Group after dinner. Today is dull and overcast, so exercise will be indoors. Just about to do my Physio and then jump in the shower.
Pip: I hope you have had a diagnosis for Floyd, and that he is doing okay (((hugs)))
Miele Failte to any new girls. You will find a wealth of support and advice here. We're an eclectic crowd of prolific posters, but no one expects people to comment on every post. Just jump in when the spirit moves ya!!! 😂
(((Hugs))) and 💕💖💕 to those in extremis. Life is a beach and then the tide roars in!

terri love that quote—will hang onto that today, thanks for posting it.
Well we did it, finally bought the new treadmill and it will be delivered this Saturday! Got a bow flex T6- seemed quiet and in our price range including delivery and assembly. DH goes in for knee surgery Friday and will probably be getting in his steps ASAP on it; he is one lousy patient!!
Packed my oatmeal for breakfast, apple snack and red lentil soup for lunch then after work will meet a potential new accountant. This October truly flew by.

Hello everyone.
Barbara - Are you close to a Trader Joes? They may carry chocolate hummus.
Michelle - I usually am up and down a pound or so during maintenance. When I am losing weight it does fluctuate slightly during the week and I do find I have weeks where I weigh the same.
Rori - Sorry to hear about your brother. I had done the rounds with my dear boyfriend who hid it so well that he was already moved in when I found out he had an issue. I was in full support mode the first round (he was hospitalized) and during the second round (hospitalized again) I found out he was faking going to work and drinking during his "work" hours. I moved him in to the guest room and again supported as best as I could. The third time (he disappeared all night) he came home to find almost all of his things packed and ready to go. It was one of the hardest decisions I had to make. It was made out of love which he could not understand. Greg passed away 6 months later. I express this because I finally realized there is a fine line between being supportive and being an enabler. We are all on our own paths and it is up to us to decide which path we are going to take. Are there any Al-Anon meetings you can attend? Addiction not only effects the person it trickles in to everyone's lives around that person. Being around people in similar situations made me realize I was not insane and no matter what I did to help unless Greg was helping himself there was nothing in the world that would change his behavior until he was ready and willing to make the change for himself. If you need help I am here - just private message/friend me and I will be an open ear.
Pip - Sending healing thoughts and prayers for Floyd.
Hugs to all.
SuziQ - Florida - Where is was 92 yesterday!!!!!!! What happened to fall?!3 -
Morning, afternoon and evening all,
Pip - hope the diagnosis for Floyd is positive. It's been a tough enough year for you all.
To all with colds, sinus infections, etc., hope you feel better soon!
On the subject of roofs - Got a guy coming out tomorrow evening to give us a quote on ours--don't plan to get it done immediately, but want to know what we're in for financially. We had to get the flashing around the chimney re-done for the insurance folks a year ago, and when they dug in to get that done, we found out there are already three roof layers (the first one was bright blue shingles!). It means we must have the roof stripped and redone completely, which is about $1,000 more than just a simple re-roof. We also want to go with a metal roof, which is nearly twice the cost of asphalt shingles (of course), and I want the copper-colored roof, which is, of course,15% more than the more normal colors. Champagne taste, beer budget as usual. But... a metal roof would mean that we would never have to replace it in our lifetimes, most likely, as many have a 50-year warranty--asphalt shingles must be replaced every 12-17 years, which would mean three more times before we croak over, if things work as they ought. So... decisions, decisions.
Anyway - woke up to a 60-degree house, as I'd dropped the heat way, way down yesterday, it being a beautiful day. Just heard my husband turn the heat down, so I'll be turning that back up once he leaves for work. Must get it together and go do my resistance work at the gym, and then got four small grants to get accomplished by Nov. 1, which is getting closer by the minute! Finally got a grant calendar made up that gives me a visual of what I'm doing when, where the overlaps are, and where I can fit in research time, etc. It's helping a lot, to be able to visualize my upcoming year. I do love Excel, which probably makes me exceedingly odd.
Later, y'all,
Love,
Lisa

Not odd at all ... it's my favourite of the Office package.
Excel
Powerpoint
Outlook
Access ... this would rate higher if I needed it more now. I've used it extensively, but haven't needed it in several years.
Word ... although I've been starting to come to terms with Word in the last few years.

Machka - always reassuring to have a fellow (and far exceeding my own knowledge) technophile around. I often feel I was born at exactly the right time. Old enough to have lived in a world that could barely conceive of the Internet, so that I have an appreciation for exactly what the Internet has accomplished for my Elephant's Child curiosity bump, and young enough to have been part of its earlier iterations. I was designing websites in 1998 for a health insurance company that was working with Texas A&M university.
I still think it's marvelous, while being completely aware of what sharp edges that dual-edged sword actually has...
OK, the car has warmed enough to actually get in it. Our thermometer says 38 degrees. I'm just enough of a sybarite to love heated seats. The benefits to buying a used car with all the bells and whistles still working!

I wish I had embraced it earlier. I learned to program in high school Basic on Apple computers ... it was how we got anything done on a computer. Pre-wordprocessors etc. And I loved it! But when word processors etc. appeared, for some reason I shied away from computers for a number of years. I still used them a little bit, but not nearly to the extent I should have done. It wasn't till the mid-1990s that my interest was renewed.
It is often a bit of a love-hate relationship.

Lisa the thermostat wars have begun in my home as well, just in reverse, I will always turn it lower. DH actually has the Nest thermostat that he can control on his phone and will often "heat up" the house on his way home from work cause he knows I keep it lower I always know he is on his way home when I start feeling hot!!

On Thermostats - We have propane for heat (and cooktop and clothes dryer) and I am very stingy with the propane, it is expensive! I have a heated blanket at my recliner during the winter months and a space heater by my desk for when I am working. Hubs like it much cooler than me, so he is happy.

I'm in charge of the thermostat, though I do always ask DH if he is comfortable, or not.
I am in charge of the TV remote. I decide who watches what TV in which room. I control what music we have in the house. I book the holidays. I make reservations for restaurants etc. I always consult him, so they are joint decisions, but I need to be in control.
I'm so very happy that my DH understands that need. He knows that, as an abused child, my need to be a control freak is central. He is man enough to love me enough to let me do it. If he feels I am taking over and not consulting him, he very soon let's me know it.
With my previous husband I felt he allowed me to ride roughshod over him and I didn't respect him for it. I took it too far. With DH I do very much respect him and know his limits.
