I’ve enjoyed reading posts lately & I have been spending time with DH. Yesterday I had fun getting a pedicure with our daughter. What a treat! ❤️10

Carol & Machka--He will not eat anything that has parents. Not fish or chicken. He does eat some eggs if not fertilized. Eats a lot of peanut butter. Sometimes it's hard when we have pot lucks at work.
Heather--Family looks like they are having so much fun. Glad they are sharing the pictures with you and you with us.
Beth--Sending prayers and hugs for you and your mom. So much to handle in such a short amount of time. Hope you can find a place and get her moved closer to you and have one less thing to worry about.
Tracey--Sounds like you have a great week planned. Hope you get to enjoy every minutes.
Pip--I agree, your house looks so inviting.3 -
Vicki ~ "He will not eat anything that has parents." Thanks for the exclamation! Guess I am slow! I finally see what you meant!

@KetoneKaren Your brother's painting is beautiful! I love it!
I am so hungry today! I don't know what's up with that. Well, I'll just have to deal with it. I hope everyone is having a good day.

Beth- Im so sorry to hear about your moms fall. Its just so hard when our parents get older and especially when your not living close by.. ,I'll pray she recovers quickly and they can move her closer to you.
I woke up sneezing my fool head off today ,but had to watch Miles.. still didnt feel great but made it through.. went to the post office got some stamps,and got Homer outside and came home..
I took a covid test just for kicks its negative.but ugh I feel horrible.. im going to do my pills for the week. Take some cold meds and go to sleep..1 -
Thanks Karen, Lanette, Ginny and Rosemarie - feeling more like my old self today although I have had the day from H E L L waiting for District Nurse to visit mum.
Too tired to go into details tonight, just wanted to say thanks for caring.
Take care and love to all

When I was younger, I was a fairly adventurous eater but the older I get, the more I want the same simple things every day. I tried meatless eating but was exhausted at trying to fill all the nutritional requirements and found the tasty, fun, meatless entrees too high in sodium. Now I eat boneless skinless chicken and ground turkey.
I sent an email to Barbara to tell her that we missed her. I'll let you know if I get a reply.
Lisa, What does "ETA" stand for?
Tracey, I love the sign in your kitchen.

Worked. Made a key lime zucchini – they call it a bread but to me it’s more of a cake – for Vince.
1derland – are LaBanderita whole wheat tortillas good for you? They are keto friendly (whatever that means) I get them at WalMart. I see Sam’s has them also? Gotta check that out. Hopefully, they carry the whole wheat ones. That’s the only kind I usually get
Lori – (that IS your name, isn’t it?) what we used to do with the syringes is take a wire cutter and cut the tip of the syringe off, put the needle in a small jar (we used a baby food jar) and then throw out the syringe. No one can use it since it doesn’t have the needle. One time we had someone who went thru our garbage. Boy, they must have been disappointed!!!
Got an email from my gf in Switzerland. She was saying how they used to sleep with their windows open but now they sleep with them closed because they have malaria there. I guess Europe has been more lax about letting in immigrants who bring lots of diseases with them.
Lanette – the Farmer’s Almanac says that we are in for a harsh winter. Hope it’s wrong
Debbie – I’m sorry you had to get rid of your cat but I totally understand the frustration of constantly having to wash sheets, etc. Did you give him away?
I’m not a reader but I do enjoy listening to audiobooks
Beth – I’m so sorry your mom fell. Hope the surgery goes well
Lisa – glad Egg is helping you feel better
Anne DE – good luck at your workshop
Karen – your brother is so talented. But I’m sure you already knew that
Allie – Vince was feeling horrible but, like you, he got an at-home covid test and tested negative. I thought he would.
I’m not a big meat eater. Oh, I do eat meat, just not a lot. Just give me my veggies
Picked up my Goofy from ceramics last night.

Well husbands yearly went fine. They told him the liver is slightly fatty, but it hasn't changed number wise since he got it back in 2014. Guess what doctor that never bothered to actually read his chart, he was given a slightly fatty liver. It started out that way. She also slipped up by saying his bile duct area looked good and the numbers supporting it. Her words, don't want any blockages in the bile duct! Well doctor, if you looked at his chart you would see after a years worth of stents to keep his bile duct open, he had his liver main lined into his intestines, back in 2018. I swear every year we go to his yearly, they call him Ira pronouncing it as "ear-vah" instead of "eye-rah". If we had to go there more often than yearly, we'd make more of a fuss, but gosh sakes can't you write "eye-rah" under his name??? I miss OHSU.🙄.
Didn't visit Burlington's Fred Meyer, because it would involve some back tracking to the restaurant. I did get to stop at a local farmers stand and paid $2 for a pretty peach and $8 for their peach salsa. If you never have has peach salsa its delightful! I have part of my lunch meal I saved, with the appropriate guacamole, and sour cream plastic cups, plus will have some salsa tonight.😁👍🏻
Beth so sorry about your mommas fall.🙏💖😢. She has had a tough time lately. Hugs and healing to her!
Pip, love the new rug. Brightens the place up!
Well I have my train trip confirmed for September. I will stay most of September at my sisters. Then when she tires of me, I will go up to see son and family, and Lee will come down to pick me up. I am hoping to get some pickles, some tomato sauce, and whatever veggies she lets me have, because I won't be taking any public transportation home.
Hugs ladies!

I’m so excited! Gonna have cataract surgery! I will have to be riding blind for a week. After that I will go back and they’ll measure my eyes again.. I will have to pay 2400.00 out of pocket because of the type of lens that he wants to put in me, oh well.. won’t be able to see the tv screen. This iPad and phone screen I have to put right in front of my face and squint to read anything5

She hasn't felt "right" now for a couple of weeks and is concerned. I'm so sorry about your dad. I hope your mom heals quickly.
(((Lori and Beth and your moms)))
I hope they both heal quickly.
My husband took another tumble this week. We really need to get railings installed outside.
