I don't know if somebody (CDC??) is keeping track of which vaccine has the most break-thru cases, or if testing centers ask for the name of the vaccine that a person received. It would be interesting to know. I was reading online (Mr. Google to the rescue) that breakthrough cases may be under counted and underestimated…

Greetings everyone! Just an update to keep this thread going. No major de-cluttering or re-organization on my part for the last two weeks. I have been cleaning drawers and disposing of unwanted things as I go along and it has been effective. I checked my closet this week and I decided that there are not items to get rid of…

I don't. My niece and her family caught covid in December 2020. It was mild for all of them but they followed the rules. Quarantine for more than 14 days, followed by two negative PCR tests before they ventured out or went back to work. They haven't complained about any long term COVID side effects. They all got vaccinated…

I agree with @forestfreek You are not that old, just reaching middle age. My kids are your age and I am approaching my late 70s and I feel younger (except when my OA reminds me that I am not :) ) I wish you good luck in your journey, but if you don't consider yourself "old" you will not be grumpy anymore, and probably more…

I just saw this article. Worrisome news. Keep the children safe they are our future. [b]Arkansas Children's hospitals report record high number of children hospitalized with Covid-19[/b] The hospitals, located in Little Rock and Springdale, said 24 pediatric patients were hospitalized with Covid-19 on Wednesday, a 50%…

I hope that your daughter gets better soon. Hugs to all.

I wish I could read the article but it is from FB and I am not a member.

The article below is for all of the people that think that COVID is a hoax and vaccines are not worthy. I am so pissed!!!!! >:) If you can't/shouldn't get the vaccine due to health reasons, please protect yourself and others by wearing a mask. If this variant (Delta) had been the original one, we would probably had over 1…

Easy and direct article with information from Dr. Wen. I encourage everyone to click the link and to froward as well. How worried should vaccinated people be about Covid-19 breakthrough infections? "...The most important thing the Covid-19 vaccines do is to protect against hospitalization and death. They have proven to be…

I don't weigh-in while on vacation, and I don't weigh or track food or exercise either. Enjoy your 10 days hiatus and have fun.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are having competition :D ... Bed Bath & Beyond's stores have always been chaotic. Now it's decluttering Marie Kondo-style https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/21/business/bed-bath-and-beyond-flagship-store-new-york/index.html

@cory17 Great idea! I should do the same but I know that I will get a push back from my husband, since he knows that I am not a Xmas person. We have a huge Xmas tree and the kids and their families don't come very often anymore since they don't live near by. I would like to get a smaller and easier to put together tree,…

@ Karliemyalgia I've got to learn how to make bone broth, I cook a lot of whole chickens but throw out the bones despite knowing there is stuff I can do with it, I am just not very skilled in the kitchen.[/quote] You can buy bone broth already prepared in the market. I don't know where you live but if you buy at Costco,…

What about creamed or pureed vegetable soup? You can use fresh or frozen vegetables (add more carrots to camouflage the other veggies). Cook them in bone broth for added protein, and when the vegetables are done use the blender, or the hand held blender, to puree everything. You can replace half the broth with cream or…

Besides what it has been suggested above: Spray THERAWORKX (you can get it at your local drugstore, no Rx needed). It is very effective and acts fast. Also a glass of Tonic Water before your exercise can help you since it has quinine. You can get the low calorie version, if you prefer.

@PatriceFitnessPal Awesome work! Your determination and organization is paying off, and congrats to your boys for helping you achieve your goal. After the gym I went to the donation center to leave two bags of items, as I mentioned on July 11th. I checked the library in my local (gated) community and they are accepting…

If the government (aka Congress) could not "tackle" the Covid-19 epidemic, masks wearing, quarantine and vaccination, I doubt it that they would pass any bill to tackle obesity. I hope that I am wrong.

July 11th. I completed most of the organization and cleaning of the laundry room cabinets, that I started yesterday. I actually did more that I thought possible. I still have the very top/high shelves to do, but I am too short ;) and the step ladder that I have in the room is not high enough for me to reach them. I need my…

@AnnPT77 I am putting a "call" to Ann since she is a water and indoor rower user, maybe she answers the call. Good luck @mlfen0778. I use the rower at the gym but mostly for upper body workout and because it is easy on my crappy knees.

Sometimes organizing at the spur of the moment is as rewarding as completing a pre-determined task. That is what I did today. I need to re-organize the cabinets in the laundry room, and today looking for something I ended organizing several shelves and tossing things that I don't need and adding a couple of things in the…

@GaleHawkins Agree! Silly me... o:)

@RubyRed427 I wish I had an answer for you but journalism was never something that I was interested in doing. I did start one 55 years ago (very young and naive), and I stopped writing after 8 to 10 pages. I was going to dispose of it, but as long as my husband and I are still alive, I will keep it. That is if I find it,…

You will get more side effects from Covid (intubation, long hauling side effects, and possible death). But it is your life and if you want to throw away or spend weeks or months in the ICU your choice as well. But please, wear a mask and keep distance because there are other people that cannot be vaccinated due to health…

@YellowD0gs Nicely put. But your forgot to tell him that "the avatar" got the vaccine in secrete before living the WH thru the back door back in January. So he preached one thing and did another...

@PatriceFitnessPal Your post just reminded me that I could give away some "extra" things that I have in the kitchen cabinets that I not longer use or need. I will call the local libraries to se if they are accepting books donations now, then haven't for several months. I have the books selected and neatly kept them in the…

If this doesn't awake people I don't know what will... In Maryland, every person who died of Covid-19 in June was unvaccinated. That's not an aberration, experts say Last month, 130 people died of Covid-19 in Maryland. None of them were vaccinated, according to Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan. In addition, unvaccinated people…

@PatriceFitnessPal and @sargemarcori You ladies are on a roll. How inspiring! I may take a break this week from organizing and de-clutting since I have several appointments and I don't want to star anything that I can't finish the same day.
-
Lots of inspiring and educational ideas posted recently and I appreciate them all. Just reading them gives me a "push" to do more. Unfortunately one of the things that holds me back is my husband. He doesn't like to get rid of things that are no longer needed (because he thinks that they would eventually be useful), so it…

Sorry about you having to deal with this "friend," Bon. I am glad to be a guinea pig if that means avoiding COVID and all the variants floating around. More than 600.000 people died of Covid-19 infection. US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy says he is concerned that the Detla variant of Covid-19 is behind the rise in cases…

I convinced my husband to clean up and get rid of shoes that he no longer wears. Friday afternoon we took a bag with 5 pairs of still very decent shoes to an organization that helps the homeless free of charge. I hope that this donation can help somebody in need.
