Worked today so no formal exercise. The plan for tomorrow is to do a body pump DVD.
Kim – healing thoughts being sent for your mom. How nice that your brother stepped up to the plate. Sure hope it stays that way
Barbara – how scary and unnerving!
KJ – safe travels
Tina CA – thanks for the link. Some of those pictures are really nice.
Mahjongg tonight. Went to senior bowling today after work.

Favourite salad - I don’t like any dressings except Caeser. One of my favourite salad is cucumber, tomato and feta cheese. The lady that had me eating it used a raspberry vinaigrette, but I just eat it without.
Debbie - Rodger has never actually quit a job. It has been layoffs every single time. The economy in Alberta has gotten terrible. 4 years ago, a friend helped him get a job with the city but it’s seasonal. He applies every year for the Winter jobs and probably would have had the seniority this past Winter to get one, but because of Covid layoffs they allowed staff from other departments to choose to work in roadways.
I don’t have a cent sign on my desktop keyboard either, but I can get to it in Word by using insert and I think as a font selection in other programs.
Kim - I hope your Mom has a speedy recovery and that you are able to have a little relaxation time.
Barbara- That would give me a scare! Joe is right the dogs should speak first. I just had an invitation to the Next Door App and joined on Saturday. It’s a good thing to have.
We had a terrible time with ants until last summer. We couldn’t even walk up our path to the house without them being on our legs. We put Borax and icing sugar around the trailer and we got rid of them.
Vicki - isn’t it odd how different health authorities have different opinions on the vaccines. All of our staff and residents that had Covid were encouraged to get the vaccine because, here, they are saying that having had the virus doesn’t necessarily give immunity.
Carol - I use those bagged salads regularly too. For me, if I buy the stuff for salad there is always some having to be thrown out because we can’t eat it fast enough. This way, I am not wasting as much even if it costs a bit more.
Heather - congratulations, you should be proud.
What a sweet picture of Bea, I would have to print that one.
I am going to my cousin’s on the weekend. We aren’t supposed to be yet, but her mental health is in great need of it. I have talked to my Administrator and she agrees that I should go. I am vaccinated fully and my cousin has been home except for medical appointments for months now. My boss thinks this is one of the benefits outweigh the risk situations.
I made homemade pizza for supper tonight. I will take leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

And the glorious chaos has ensued...
time to go play tic-tac-toe with the birthday girl... the sewer folks were literally covering back up their wonderfully done job as the family pulled up. Whoops, "Gramily" is being bellowed from the kitchen bar. Time for x's and oh's! 4 -
I used pepperment spray to keep down the ants. Now with Drew I can't use the borax and powdered sugar. I have used borax and sugar in the past and it worked well.1

That's pretty much a Greek salad ... add olives and onion and you're there.

That's what they are saying here too.

"Do people who have had COVID-19 and recovered need to get vaccinated?
People who have had COVID-19 and recovered should still be vaccinated.
The protection someone gains from having COVID-19 varies from person to person.
Because this virus is new, experts don’t yet know how long any natural immunity might last."

Lisa - enjoy all the chaos!
Machka - that’s what Rodger eats, I don’t like olives or onions and certainly not the dressing lol0 -

Here is a picture of me (with Charlotte Steward- Ms.Beadle from Little House on the Prairie) and a picture of my mom when she was very young- I think this is when she was pregnant with my sister so she was 15
We really do look a lot alike but I also see my dad in me-he is holding me in this picture.
Loving going through all the old slides.

Gosh, Debbie, you look so much like your mother. I know you two are very close.
I also look like my mother, but I'm not happy about it! One of the reasons I like wearing makeup is that don't see my mother when I look in the mirror. Otherwise, her eyes stare back at me.
I'm extremely fussy about salads. No bottled dressings. No savoury and sweet mixed up. In general, apart from Greek Salad, I don't like tomatoes in with my lettuce. I like the classic combinations. Classics are classics for a reason. I love many salads, but above all, a properly dressed green salad is heaven. The best olive oil is essential.

Good Tuesday,
7 hours driving, 20 minute appointment. No change, so all good. Trip up was uneventful though cloudy until we hit Michigan border when the sun came out. Coming home was in sunshine again until south of Toledo, then the clouds were back. It started icy raining shortly afterwards. That slowed me down! Had 1/4" of ice on truck. Roads were fine, but winds were rough. No migraine so far this morning! (But I haven't gotten to work yet;) ) It was nice to dress up a little.
Kim I hope your mom heals quickly and accepts the help.
Machka That bridge looks so cool!
Favorite salads- green, crunchy, fresh, veggies, and light dressing. Usually Italian, honey mustard, or ranch. My favorite greens are spinach and romaine. I also enjoy a good tomato/cucumber salad, good chicken salad, and love fruit salads. I think I will raid my fridge this morning. Simple lunch is heart's of romaine chopped, low sodium tuna, beans, tomatoes, cucumbers and some ranch. Now if my grocery would get low sodium tuna back in.
I better get going. Bills to pay, need to get to work early. Had planned on working on this past Sunday, but friends were here until 5. Looks like we will be heading to Kentucky on this Sunday to clean and measure for furniture. 60 degrees and sunshine on Sunday!
Have a blessed day!
Kylia in Ohio where winter reared its head for a couple of days.

Hoping this won’t double post. Having a boatload of problems with after thyroid surgery symptoms. Even on line has little info. From the TMI desk........my bowel refuses to work & none of the Drs has much help to offer.Three wks to go before blood work that may help. Three wks? How to get thru 3 wks? Excuse my shout out.
A nurse will stop by today,fingers crossed. Has never been a problem,but when it happens,is a problem for sure.
Kim,good luck to your Mom.Heather,all the pictures are sweet.Rori,hope you get your shots soon.Ours were the first of March.All went ok.Allie,sounds like you are getting thru the sleep problems. Know there are more,but my first post went pouf.....my mistake for not copying. Have a great day & thank you for listening. Pat C Ohio6 -
Pat - Oh how very annoying for you! Everyone I know had problems getting meds adjusted after thyroid surgery. Grrr! If the constipation goes on too long I would take myself to ER. No fun.
Having a day off from my writing project.
I'm going to phone a friend instead. Time I caught up with a couple of them.
Slept like a log last night. :bigsmile:
Love to all, Heather UK xxxxxxxx1 -

4:30 am— DH is diabetic. He had a low blood sugar episode this morning. I helped him get a sugar tablet and when that started to help he had a mini Kind Bar. He’s doing better now. He’s getting coffee and I’m warm and cozy in bed.

I am home. Touching base with Machka's salad question, because I don't have time to go into trip details this morning. My favorite salad is a greek salad. My favorite dressing is a home made lemon dressing because it is so versatile. However, if we are eating out, I will almost always have either a ceasar salad or house salad with blue cheese. ONe thing I hate on my salads is croutons. Hard, stale, salty, bread. Ick! KJ1
