I will always be grateful for the best husband I could have ever imagined and his wonderful family. I am grateful for my amazing parents who were unconventional and courageous in turbulent times. And I’m ever so grateful for the fur monsters present and past who trusted, loved and love me. I am always aware that I must be…

I have a lot of things I’m still struggling with relating to my job transition, but my morning ritual is set and so very satisfying. I generally stir at 6:30 A.m. when my husband rises and makes coffee. A morning kiss and I’m generally back in bed for an additional sleep. When I do awaken for the day, Kidd Kirby has…

Lol, IIRC I’m pretty sure I can find a saved e-mail or two from the 1990’s. I have had one continuous email address since 1991 - it is not one I often use NOW, but occasionally an acquaintance from the past or need to rummage through old saved emails makes me glad I still have it. When I worked an information heavy job I…

Hotels I only want a clean and cool room. Everything else is gravy. I find staying in a hotel very restful, the stresses of being st home (laundry, dishes, cleaning, cooking etc) are gone and it is such a wonderful feeling. Now that I have hot flashes, I often pack an electric fan in the car to bring to the room so I can…

Nervousness and worries about upcoming trip to Family. Oh, it will be unequivocally great to see Papa, but my siblings are another story. You may recall I am the only one in my generation who talks to every sibling. Well the games are beginning, a kind of time tug of war and snippy commentary, and quite honestly I’m…

It sounds like your SIL primarily has dyspraxia presenting in impairment of cognitive or processing abilities. My disorder presents itself in very poor fine motor control (for…

I have done a home version of the fast mimicking 5 day diet three times this year. I have not had any blood work done before or after, so I don’t know if I have reaped any benefits. I plan to do it again on September and November. I liked his book quite a bit. Rye

Yesterday high 112 degrees. Right Now it is 94 degrees and it isn’t even 9:00 am. I’ve experienced a couple weeks above 100 and many summers with a day or two above 105 in my 15 years in Texas but never anything like this past week where the high exceeded 110 three times and always exceeded 105.

I do not have a drivers license. My vision has always been too poor to pass the test (I *CAN* pass the vision test, ironically- it is the reverse parallel parking I have never been able to do.). For many years a motor scooter that went up to a max 35 miles an hour did NOT require a driving license and I traveled on one.…

Rebecca Hmm I don’t faceboook. But I’d like the painter to see someone found it. I wonder if one of my nieces still does the Facebook thing. Do you just post a picture like the one I put here for the painter to see? I know the patient found it in Fort Worth but not where in town. Rye

Rebecca a patient at work brought in a painted rock and asked what I thought about it. I mentioned I knew some folks on the internet who liked to find these and she gave it to me. So here is a picture for you. I’m supposed to hide this, yes? I was thinking of bringing it to Chicago and put it out in the wild there. Rye in…

Kidd Kirby says hi! Rita glad everything seems to have turned out ok. CJ et all I did maneuver- coax Kidd Kirby to sleep on my foot. Didn’t get him to purr while there tho. Lol Okie Have I told you I find your conquering of maintenance inspiring? I suppose I am ‘successful’ at it but it is such a struggle for me, I hope to…

In the “learn something new every day” category: Although I can not find a particularly academically rigorous source for the claims, it appears that a cat’s purr is in the same sound frequencies that researchers are currently looking at using therapeutically to treat astronaut bone density loss and muscle atrophy. Now to…

Karen you are awfully sweet. I hope you had a lovely birthday! I’m just grumping in the mid of night due to some excruciating hot flashes. The weather here this week is not helping with daytime temps at 105+ degrees Fahrenheit. Even at 2:47 am right now the temp is 91 degree F. Broken toe is putting halt to most cardio,…
