    Beth - I just realized I skipped over your photos of the reseeding and catchup on house residing. I have tried to reseed a few places in my yard and of course that's the first place the hens run to. :s Mine like scratching in anything that looks like bedding and houses bugs and worms. Shame on your neighbor for not taking your complaint about thir chicken's destruction seriously. Aren't they moving soon? Not soon enough?

    You look mahvelous standing there with your rake by the way. What do you charge per hour and are you willing to travel? ;):p

    @auntiebk :)

    Good Saturday morning!

    So sad to see bad words used here about our loved ones.

    My Grandmother taught me If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.

    Not sure this is the place for me?

    [quote="Snowflake1968;c-47718250"

    I am currently in emerg, I woke up at 6am because my hand was throbbing. I thought I had just slept on it wrong, throughout the day the pain continued to get worse and I couldn’t hold a pen at the end of it. I tried heat, cold, Advil, Voltaren. Nothing worked, after class Rodger noticed my hand was swollen. He encouraged me to come to the hospital. I’ve been here 6 hours and was told about 5 hours ago it was about a 4 hour wait at that time barring emergencies. There are still 5 ahead of me. I think I’ll be getting home around 4am.

    Debbie - your husband had you get up to move the recycling bin instead of going out and moving it himself? That’s beyond inconsiderate.



    Just to show there is still kindness in the world. One lady was brought here by a friend after she was punched at her job. They arrived at 3 today. Around 7 he felt that everyone waiting must be hungry so he went and bought a pizza for all of us waiting to have a slice. I haven’t witnessed kindness like that in a long time.

    I hope you are feeling better(haven't finished reading all the posts to see if you have updated yet)
    I agree, he is inconsiderate. Happens often. I don't think he even realizes it anymore. He is so self centered most of the time that it doesn't even cross his mind how his actions are affecting me. It doesn't help that after so long, I just don't think twice, I just go fix the problem. Yes, he was just getting in the shower when he thought of it but we both would have to put pants on. He just didn't think that maybe HE could be the one to do it.

    Finally, after 4 nights of insomnia, I was able to sleep pretty good, didn't take any melatonin. Did take a quick shower because the mosquito was back and I woke up with itchy bites all over. 5 min shower, back in bed and back asleep pretty quickly. Yes, I did wake up quite a few times, like usual but didn't stay awake any of the times.

    Today I need to do some baking for potluck after church tomorrow. Need to find a Western outfit to wear- hopefully something will fit well enough
    Dishes need to be done, need to clear off a place on the kitchen table to put one of the smaller 3D printers. We have three printing now and he wants to get at least the small one and maybe his other two, all up and running. Need to get lots of things printed before the show Black Friday weekend in SF.
    Was going to clean out the catio but will wait until Tuesday- supposed to rain Monday so don't want to put fresh pine pellets in it and worry about the rain ruining it.

    Pip We were mentioning that she hasn't posted since early/mid September. Could you possibly reach out to her?

    I just saw a message from Auntiebk and I replied with the phone number I had from her

    I am amazed that we are supposed to be 'nice' and say nothing about a child being raped by its father, or a religious leader abusing generations of children. You should be ashamed of yourself.

    Well ladies getting my walking in and then some 3 1/2 hrs of walking.I can barely move ,but got some exercise.
    Saw Seth and Carmine Seth came and gave me a big hug Carmine saw me and promptly turned and walked away.. such a little B.

    Using profanity.. in reference to one’s granddaughter. Our society has become so desensitized to it, it has been excepted as ok , even normal. As it is here, on this group and defended by other’s here. No Thank you.. I won’t be a part.

    I appreciate the explanations and excuses of why the profanity of this young girl is ok here. But it is not ok.

    Hi Gals,

    So I was thinking about the troll dolls (LOL) they were both cute and ugly but in my bio- growing up family, there were rules about nakedness(even for the dolls) – but troll dolls because they did not come with clothes were allowed to be naked. And my dad and grandpa's favorite flower was a “naked lady” which is really amaryllis belladonna. I am pretty sure it was their favorite just because they could say the name and get a rise out of the wives! I can her both my mom’s voice and my grandmom’s saying “DH really there are children present” LOL LOL so dated but so much a part of that generation

    Love ya all,
    Kim in N. California

    Tracey - So glad the doc did the due diligence and the necessary tests. Hope the swelling recedes and you continue to feel better.

    Margaret - You are, as always, a loving and forgiving soul. A whole lot of my pet peeves were triggered in a very short space today. As a newspaper editor for years, I do not react well to censorship in most forms, and I do not respond at all well to those passing head-shaking, holier-than-thou, and above all, unfounded judgment. You said it a lot more nicely than I did! :smiley: Thank you.

    Dinner's in the oven - a thank-you dinner from me because Corey helped me with the shelves for the storage room. And honestly, did it when he wasn't in the mood--he was trying to relax today, and save some energy for the yardwork, etc., tomorrow. But because I asked, he helped put all the wire, movable shelving together.

    Then, without me even asking, he did something I might not have been able to done on my own. He cut that big, heavy, 10-foot-long countertop piece in half, and used it to create two very nice, capacious shelves for me in what will be the permanent storage room. I do love giving something that served its first purpose (as my bread station for a couple of years) a new purpose rather than buying something new. Luckily, so does he!

    So, fair's fair, he shouldn't have to cook dinner on top of that. I put a beef enchilada casserole together and got it in the oven. Probably not as good as something he would have cooked, but I know he'll eat it. :smiley:

    Time to get dinner out of the oven, and let it rest for 10 or 15-minutes, as it is hot like lava.

    Love,

    Who's not as testy as she sounded...

    Lanette, the deck looks wonderful! I read The Upper Room”, too!

    Y’all, i thought I was through with MFP for the day, but I had to pop back on and tell you I have discovered something even more delicious than Oikos Pro yogurt. It is plain Greek Yogurt mixed with TrueFit Whey Protein flavor in chocolate. Yesterday, I did a serving, which was 3/4 cup of yogurt and a whole scoop of protein powder, but it was too many calories for a snack. Today I used 1/2 cup of yogurt and 1/2 scoop of powder. It was around 200 calories, 23 g of protein. perfection!

    Katiebug - Hands down best comment. Thank you.

    Lanette - The deck looks outstanding, thanks for sharing the pics!

    Corey's headed for the tub, and I think I'll go put in a little time getting that storage area settled, there are a number of things that need shifting. And I've already got a few things in the car for my next trip into town to drop off at the Goodwill. Getting all this settled, and the closets emptied in the back is the first real step toward beginning the long-postponed renovations in the back. Basically, turning two very small bedrooms and a minuscule half bath into one larger bedroom, a full bath, and a storage room. It will probably take at least a year, but at least it can be started... :smiley:

    Later y'all,
    Love,
