DH has two bracelets and a necklace, all of them with identity information. He had these tucked into a drawer in his closet. They are currently a bracelet with id information, and also a necklass with id information. He is wearing them now. Tomorrow we will go to our local medical clinic for a meeting.1

Quick hop on before I turn in.
Beth- So sorry to hear about your mom falling again! Keeping you and your parents in my thoughts. I am glad your sister is there to hopefully lend a hand.
Katla- Glad DH's medic alert jewelry/tags turned up! Happy your daughter is there to help!
Lisa- So sorry to hear that your son in law has been so deceitful! Your daughter is made of strong stuff. I am sure you set a great example while she was growing up. I am positive she loves having you in her corner.
Your office area looks great.
Tina - How about a zen garden with sand? You could play in it, put an easy water feature in (for relaxation purposes. Easily add a zen stone path (circles any one?) No mowing, no weeding, no plant watering...
Tracey- Sorry to hear about your kid's friend! So hard when we see your children lose someone close, so young. (((hugs)))
Me waving to all of the new girls! Hi! Welcome! Remember to bookmark our page and jump in when you feel the urge!
Pip- Thinking of you and sending all of the best vibes and prayers!
On a side note: I had a busy weekend at a Living History Show in Kalamazoo. A Lot of people. I masked. Most didn't. *sigh* Luckily, the weather was nice and they had the doors open for the event (and our table and display was right by the doors). We were across from a woman who spun and knit her own wool from her own sheep and alpacas. She had her spinning wheel there and skeins of wool and yarn of all different colors. She would alternate between spinning and knitting things like mittens, fingerless gloves, and toques. I gave her a registration and she will be coming to our local historical event! She was amazing. Oh, anyway, I was so busy all weekend I lost three pounds. I was dead on my feet by the time I got home Sunday night; but Monday morning I was three pounds lighter. Woo-hoo!
Well, I better get to sleep. Still trying to catch up on sleep since the time change. So tired every day. ttfn xoxoxo KJ (Kelly)4 -

trying to figure out how to track dinner- making my version of "pho"
shrimp, imitation crab, kamaboko(fish cake-two kinds), Chinese bbq pork, bok choy, tofu, asparagus, snow peas, ginger/garlic/pho bouillon cubes.
Noodles for those who want them- I like mine without.
I know I will be under calories for the day(unless I have a Danish)-before dinner, I am only at 230 for the day- fresh papaya and seltzer for snack while at the park then side salad, pico de gallo as dressing and 3 oz baked chicken breast.
Getting ready for #4 breathing treatment- will end up doing 5 today beings I started early, at 6AM

So they aren't interactive at all, I presume. How has he been feeling?

Pip -- So happy that your recovery is going so well. The activity you are doing is probably helping your recovery go even better!
Welcome to the newcomers.
Too much going on to update. But I am fine.
Much love to all.

Spring morning
I wake to find the morning sky
ablaze with golden light.
A mirrorball sends out beams,
sparkling and bright.
Crystals fill the corners with
rainbows of delight
as I enjoy the miracle
that banishes the light.
I lie back on my pillows
and contemplate the day,
filled with optimistic joy
to speed me on my way.

Terri: I absolutely ♥♥♥ this. My bedroom has east facing bay windows with crystals dangling from the top of them. Every morning I take time to contemplate the little rainbows dancing around the bed and walls. The photo attached doesn't do the light show justice, but you may get a sense of the feeling in my resting space.

Holding good thoughts for tomorrow's doctor visits for Michele, Pip and Katla's DH.
Lisa: I started cleanout and refurbishing of my hobby room/cat cave at the beginning of the month. What bliss to shred and shed so much useless stuff. I even gave away a giant wall sized hutch that was stuffed with office supplies, as tho I would ever go back to working as an executive from a home office again...um, no.
Speaking of work, I've recently ushered the play Hamilton (4th time), a children's concert by the Colorado Symphony, and the ballet of Wizard of Oz, which was absolutely fantastic. Coming up in April I'm scheduled for3 shifts at the Red Rocks Ampitheatre, in three different genres: comedy, rap and Electronic Dance. I'm loving meeting new people, being out at night (not eating or drinking) and stretching my knowledge of traditional and pop culture.
Stay well, friends. We can do this. BIG welcome to our new ladies.

The mole catching lady is here and found a mole in the traps she set a week ago. Our garden is happy. She's going to leave the traps for another week just in case there is another mole. My friend who fixes computers has recovered from his back problems and came over today to work on the problem with my computer. It has been a very good day.

Went to our on base clinic with husband as he was having his monthly bloodwork done. I asked the clerk in Family medicine about getting the covid Moderna booster and she said to just go to immunization dept. Walked down the hall and filed out a form and waited 5 minutes. A nice corpsman did it, he looked about 19. He asked if I wanted him to say 3, 2, 1. Lol! Just do it, gahh! He was polite, so now my left arm is a wee bit sore, but about the same as a flu shot. Today I am thankful for the simplicity of our on base clinic and my access to using it.👍
Today I did 21 hr fast, eating at noon. Fixed two fish fillets from yesterday, the coleslaw from yesterday in two street taco sized tortillas with two slices of havarti cheese melted as glue for the fish. So yummy! I ate the rest if my coleslaw that was left over with a spoonful of diced tomatoes and some slices English cucumber. Then a brownie with coffee. Shut down my eating window at 2 pm. Easy peasy. Slept good last night, not to bad in the morning. Drinking my coffee black, no problem. I will leap out of bed tomorrow morning for gym, I promise!

Are you all right?
Are you having trouble posting again?
I hope that your daughter is able to arrange an appointment with your doctor for you and her while she is there too.

I hope your daughter can talk to the doctor about making the medic alert jewellery interactive ... so that medical specialists can get more information online about your DH.
You might go to the Medic Alert site and look at something for yourself too. When you and your daughter go to your doctor have a chat about it.1 -

Machka-I love your garden. We need to do something with our front yard, but neither of us knows where to start. We are not gardeners in the needed sense. I think we will do a patio with a fire pit, but we want a short-ish wall for the privacy too. We need to pick out the tiles first and that is extremely overwhelming. We don't want anything that needs water. I'm sick of fixing landscape irrigation and we are in a drought most of the time.
Welcome to the new folks. Hugs to those in need. Hang in there.
Hope you all have a great day.

Tina,
We also did not want to water and mow as much. Prior to turning this area to gravel, this was grass which had to be taken care of all the time situated on an awkward slope. This gravel was an inexpensive solution. It doesn't need to be mowed or watered, and it's safer.
The plants we've purchased are in pots so if we happen to move for some reason, we can take them with us. We can also change them out if we want something different.
The dry stream I'm putting together in the front yard could have a zen element to it.
And one of the reasons I'm putting it in is so that I don't have to have quite as many plants to water and take care of.
It's also inexpensive. So far, I've dug up most of the rocks from various garden beds around the yard and I've snagged bigger rocks here and there when I've discovered them near tip shops and other places.
We got a big load of bricks from a tip shop for $10. About 2/3 were used in the stairs in the second photo and I'm using some for my starting area for the dry stream. I picked up some low wide bowls for my mock pools from a few places and I doubt I spent $10 in total for them. I've been pleasantly surprised ... where else can you spend just a few dollars but have hours and days of fun!
I've also picked up a few native plants. They're in pots, but may go in the ground when I decide where to put them. Australian native plants are good because once they are established, they don't require much water.
