    Afternoon ladies
    Busy day..took Doris to eye dr,she will have her retina replaced..
    And her hearing aid was having issues, so we were near the hearing aid place across the river so we stopped over and one of the tubes was broken,so they fixed both of them and we were off.and stopped to feed her daughters cat and mini horse chip..
    And then home..we always have a good time.

    Rebecca Question...has your sin seen a dentist lately? I have had two friends with wounds that wouldn't heal. Turns out they had infection in their gums. Worth asking about. My son in law developed psoriasis in the Navy. Under stress it would get awful. Just a couple suggestions.

    Tracey Love the table and chairs!

    Enjoying the kittens playing in the man cave with DH. SHOULD be working, but.....

    Countdown to vacation!

    Lots of love and gratitude,

    I’m wondering if I might have EIA. Yesterday, after mowing the weeds, I came inside to take a shower and I think I could hear myself wheezing. I do remember taking things downstairs like the Halloween decorations and Christmas decorations, and after coming up the stairs, I was out of breath. Gotta see if this continues.

    Sounds more like allergies than EIA (Exercise Induced Asthma) ... pollen, dust.

    I've had to take my allergy pills every day during this whole move thing because of all the dust, and I have to take them when the Christmas decorations start appearing in the stores and everywhere for the same reason.

    My table and chairs. Michaela and I set the table with my great grandmother’s dishes for a photo shoot.

    Last night was able to text with youngest sailor. Dermatologist did blood work and found some abnormalities, but with rash, and his wound on leg that isn't healing, the doctor referred him to internal medicine saying it might be Crohn's. I wish I could be there to just wring the docs neck. His symptoms though he has some skin issues isn't the major symptoms of Crohn's which is an inflammatory disease of the digestive tract mostly. The derm doc didn't even call him back up with his diagnosis, another sailor did, and called my son while he was in berthing, so son said it was heard to understand. I did tell son that more tests should be done, and he has to really be firm with medical so he can be proactive with his health. He's just a 25 yr old kid, not knowing what questions to ask, while still trying his best to be a sailor. Calming thoughts to him is appreciated. I cried and was so confused by this whole situation. Finally medical might actually take his grievances seriously and not just throw topical creams his way.

    Wounds that don't heal suggest diabetes to me. I hope he does get a full work-up.

    I think his only thing has been getting his wisdom teeth pulled at boot camp, but that has been years ago.

    Beautiful dining set! You did an awesome job! I just don’t have the patience to do something like that, but my DH would. I showed it to him and told him when we move to an apartment in a couple years, we will need to buy old furniture and refinish it like this. Bed will be first I think! 🧐

    Yes @Machka, I am doing something like this. The American CDC has the same information but call it “My Plate” program.

    Dinner yesterday came from my grocery store, Albertson’s: Humus and pretzel kit, cup of sliced cucumbers with some kind of Mexican seasoning, wasn’t spicy hot and was good, and a plum. Supper was a warmed up biscuit with an apple, a small cup of ice cream and yogurt on top. Sort-of healthy! 🤪
