    Lisa - I almost forgot - great job on the half bath, wow! Chip & Joanna Gaines, move over for Corey and Lisa!

    I just took a walk in the back of the property to scatter some birdseed. Discovered the treacherous Monkey Puzzle tree is dropping seeds. 🙄 If anyone wants some, let me know. I found a website that tells about how to germinate the prickly things, lol. The tree is over 15 years old and finally producing.

    Still you can check your accessibility settings and possibly also your on-screen keyboard settings.

    Went by the pool while Jess and Colby went to Cocoa Beach. The guy who is doing the bathroom came and delivered the vanity and tile. We spoke some and he really didn’t think it a good idea to recess the tp holder (yes, we’re back to this) b/c (and this I understand) if something happens in like 10 years and you can’t get a replacement, you now have a big hole in your cabinet, which is true. So it looked like I might have to have the tp holder on the wall across from the toilet which I did not want but it seems that vince is willing to go with having it on the side which is what I wanted. So we shall see…

    Went out to dinner, I admit that I wasn’t good. But I did order as my sides the broccoli & cauliflower (which I brought home) along with ½ of the sweet potato. Had catfish, rock shrimp and scallops (which Jess took). They have this non-alcoholic orange cream drink so had that along with water. Then I did have an apple crisp along with ice cream. Now I feel “yuk”. Bad water and didn’t get a walk in. Well, I guess one day won’t kill me.

    Supposed to be nice tomorrow, so I hope to be able to go out by the pool again

    Lanette – older workers also have something called a “work ethic”. They don’t take a day off because they feel like going down the shore or something like that. They take time off from work only when needed. They also bring lots of experience with them.

    Lisa – your bathroom is small like ours down here. OK...where do you have your tp holder? Everything looks great

    Barbara – really, the lancing isn’t that bad. They do give you a local so you really don’t feel anything, that is, until they start to squeeze

    Allie – so glad to hear you are back in your room. Now to take care of yourself. And you’re getting those steps in…..lol

    Hey Barbara - I have HEARD that a sniff of isopropyl alcohol will cure nausea… I have never tried it, but that was something I heard. The gal who told me told me she just tears open an alcohol wipe and gives it a sniff.

    Allie - I am so glad that you are out of surgery and back with us. Walk, Forrest, Walk!

    Pip - keep on truckin - you got this.

    Goodnight, All

    Allie - They seem to be taking great care of you! Hooray! 😃

    I sent my ex an email today. Just wishing him all the best. An undiagnosed UTI can make you feel as if the sky is falling. If it was just me and him, I would take a plane up there, but he has a wife and kids, and I have a husband. I'm still turning it over in my mind though.

    Thank you all for being so understanding. This is one of the very few places I can express how I feel. It helps.

    I accepted a request from my favourite niece to have a look at a crime/mystery novel she has started. I hate doing that for friends or family, as it's all too close. I did tell her how difficult I might find it. When I opened the attachment, I was horrified. It was all overblown, too much irrelevant description, and far too many adverbs. 😱 While talking to John about it at breakfast, I decided that I may just be out of touch with younger writers, and so I had a quick look at some new women's crime fiction on Amazon, and read a few samples. The style may not have been to my taste, but none quite as bad as my niece! Fortunately, after breakfast, once I got into the main body of the book, there was a marked improvement, and it flowed well, with good dialogue. So I've emailed her back saying all that, but tactfully. Phew!

    My friend L sent me videos of her choir singing at a music festival. She was in a lovely sparkly top, and they all looked as if they were enjoying themselves. I really miss our singing sessions from before covid. There doesn't seem to be anything local in the afternoon. We keep saying we will try the drop-in, one Wednesday evening, but I find it hard to drag myself out.

    Love to all. Another glorious day. The sun is heating me up as I lie here on my bed.

    Allie, this is wonderful, and I wish you the best of luck and blessings. You got this! Can't wait to see how it went. You prepped for this and lost weight for this. Now, let's get that kidney! Tight hugs before you go! Please don't overdo it afterward. I will be thinking and sending positive thoughts your way.

    Xo,
