    Went to the water class today. The plan for tomorrow is to do the Travel Fit DVD

    Drkatie – I’ve heard that Where the Crawdads Sing is a good book. I want to read it.

    One thing Vince wondered about, could Loki be having a “mini seizure”? We’ve reduced his zonisamide from 35 to 25 since 25 is cheaper. He does seem more needy and he usually got that way after a seizure. Or is it something else?

    Would you believe the bridge came out AGAIN last night. This time I was just eating soft cheese, and I was trying to eat it on the right side of my mouth. Since there aren’t any sharp edges, I’m thinking that for three weeks I’m just not going to bother having it put back. For less than 24 hours? It’s not worth it. It would be one thing if it were permanent, but it’s not. Allie – is there any reason why I would absolutely need to have it put back in?

    Pip – A list of apartments? Are you planning a move?

    Tried AGAIN to make fudge for Vince. Followed the recipe exactly. Didn’t come out (again) so just made him a chocolate cake. I’ll probably ice it tomorrow.

    After exercise stopped at the Salvation Army (didn’t buy anything) then went to WalMart. Needed to get Loki’s medicine.

    I used to put all my foods into one category, but I think I’m going to break it up into breakfast, lunch, and dinner so you can all see how weird my breakfasts are sometimes. I was trying to prelog, but every time I went to log “dinner” I just got this really weird list. It would let me prelog breakfasts, just not dinner. Weird!

    I haven’t found the crepini and cauliflower, either. There is another store I may try, Publix. They usually have different things that other stores don’t carry, like farmer’s cheese. I need to stop there after ceramics, anyway.

    Oh…get this. Last night someone from the nominating committee from Newcomers called to ask Vince if he’d be treasurer again. He just told them that not right now but maybe in the future. Yea, right!

    Heather – so sorry to hear about your dh’s aunt. Happy anniversary

    Ceramics tonight.

    Michele in NC

    When we retire , yea

    Allie so sorry it did not go well with your boss. From everything you have told us it sounds like he is trying to get you to quit. I have been in a job like that know how hard it is for you to go into work and having a difficult boss. When it happened to me I made up my mind I was going to do the best job I could under the circumstances and leave with my head held high. I set the date when it was time to leave. I think having that control helped make the difficult situation better. I did have another job before I did this.

    That he is trying to hire another part timer lucks replace the l with an s. I wasn't sure they would let me use the word I want. Please start putting away any extra cash you can so it gives you more security to put your energy into finding that new job that is out there for you.

    You took a hit today. I know you have the strength and perseverance to bounce back from this and apply that energy to finding that job that is right for you. When one door closes another opens.

    Much love,
    Margaret

    Carol- Was so different back then you could walk in check or ask what they did you knew the nursery worker by name probably ate out with the whole church as a group once a month. The Pastor was careful who they hired wasn’t a job for anyone it was a member of the church who people respected y trusted.The mega churches here are no windows to peer in can’t check on them security guards stationed outside. So different now of days. I was left in a nursery as a kid it was safe back then. If I could see inside ask questions get answers ,no eye scanners,y leave early even I’d do it even know who’s there I wouldn’t worry so much. I’m sure you knew the nursery workers back then’s parents even. Mega churches here you don’t even know who the pastors family is. The small towns are better but then they don’t have a nursery or mom day outs. When I was a kid you walked alone for miles to get groceries for mom now the police come if neighbors say your teen is in the backyard alone

    Halloween done ✅ hubby backs sore me too. Went to almost 10 houses then home for cartoons some chocolates 🍫.

    :) Since it already tomorrow for several of you, I have posted the link to the new thread for November. Unfortunately, I am having some trouble including the link. You can find it under "Motivation and Support" on the "Community" page.

    The 40 minutes drive to old country church with old fashion views y service we like. Restaurant after a few houses from the church.No nursery workers or other parents but people know your name you know them. Need a prayer just ask anyone or during service raise a hand. No electronics except a few that barely work or no one but a 14yr old (they pay him for it) knows how to work the new fangled mic system. Baptized in front of the congregation everyone knows who the members are or not they got donuts 🍩 y coffees free just add some pocket change to a jar of you can. Elders love on your baby for hours coming up even during prayer to hand them a candy.

    Here’s the City Church we tried awhile ⛪️ the guy doing a guitar solo is the pastor (I say he’s married hubby says he’s not so unknown),gift shop,cafe,the desk you leave your kid at then they walk them down a long corridor lock the door behind you. Lots keep their kid in the cafe with them the main church hall does not allow children at all under a certain age. You tithe by paying with a computerized pay stations that stand in the middle of certain areas just push buttons swipe a card or link it by cell phone app to pay. Not sure what’s wrong with having the old fashioned tithing plates! To have a prayer you go to a station set up outside they will hold your hand as you silently pray or log into a cell app push send it might go across the stage screen or maybe someone might contact you probably won’t but you just assume God got it I guess cause we’ll God can text???? No one knows your name or if your a member. Baptism held on a day for those in a room no one there but those people then leave. Your invisible feel alone we’ll wonder why your even there since it looks like a movie theater or cafe not a church.

    Younger preacher lots of technology going away from the churches of the past. They have book stores to jewelry stores in it. Cafe to home essentials. Soaps to perfumes.Download a sermon ,music,or a T-shirt . Yup definitely different than an old country church with older preachers taking turns nothing sold in the church if you want a recording they give it for free or charge cost of the tape only so they can replace it $1.25.Potluck suppers to old book shelf to check books out like an old moldy library but it’s books full of real knowledge!

    Happy Halloween to those who celebrate. DH and I used to go to a requiem mass at the catholic cathedral in Sioux Falls on All Saints Day. This year they are doing Faure's Requiem. It is haunting to hear that music in that setting. We do not get any trick or treaters here as we live in the agriburbs, all 10-acre plots with houses mostly set quite far back. Still working on financing for the roof but hopeful the credit union will approve a home equity loan.

    Pip - How long before you and Kirby retire? I thought you were going to travel in the airstream for a while.

    Michelle - This is one of our grove snails. They are not as colorful as yours but kind of cute anyway. They all have different combinations of black and yellow on them.

    Everyone take care and see you in November, Sue in WA

    I thought so 2
