Yay, preserves all done. Have no idea what to do with all of them after gift giving at Christmas. They are certainly sweet though. I'm kinda gonna have to limit them for me. The Dr. didn't x-ray. He said no symptoms re:. concussion. Most likely a bruised tailbone, and if it was cracked, there is not anything to do. Sore…

Getting the pears preserved. Unless you get a very early start, it is a two day job. So they are cooking on the stove. I hope to go to the doctor today, as soon as the preserves are ladled in jars. It isn't Too bad but does cause a wince when stepping up with my right leg. Plus, a pain in the ....is Not a good place for a…

I slipped in the tub, fell out landed on my bum and hit my head on the table. My head doesn't hurt, but there is an egg sized lump. My tailbone does hurt! So, no reunion for me. After Jim cleaned up the mess in the bathroom, I reassured him I'm OK and he went. We bring the plates cups napkins and I didn't want to have to…

Anne, I will one day be walking along , talking to my dog, and catch the rolling eyes of someone who doesn't get it. Hasn't happened yet. I'm happy to say I don't care if it does. Tomorrow is Jim's family reunion on his Mother's side. Lotsa food,, catching up, hugs, new babies. We usually take a platter of chicken nuggets,…

Oh I miss my puzzles! No way I can peacefully work on it now. Several 'helpers', who think they know where the pieces Really go! Into paws, mouths, under furniture....you get the picture. Beautiful Lin, and I can understand about staying up too. Much as I love to sleep, I just kept busy last night and never got to it,…

Sandy, glad to hear from you. I hope they get Babes issue resolved. Is this the cause of the dizzy spells? Well, Miss Daisy is getting some quality time with her Mommy. Hope you can rest better tonight. Phoebe

Jackie, love love your photo. One question, if that is George and Brady on Scruffs blanket, where is Scruff? Sleeping on bare floor, lol?! So sorry for your friend with the emergency mammogram. I've never heard of that. I hope it won't be the big C. Anne, picturing little bit melting the hearts of burly teenagers. Or…

Sandy, they're men, we are bound to get frustrated with them. Jim is grumpier these days. So I'm grumpy too, lol. We are both more relaxed at home. I've never heard of something like that happening. The body has as many wonders as it does not so wondrous. I was guessing some kind of ulcer, but either way, I hope they can…

Fun posts, loved Buzz telling about the kindness of everyday people. I hope Mike comes around. Buzz, I hope you will be able to do something for yourself at least once a week. Out with the girls, lounge at the pool, something You would like. Lin, happy birthday to your ex. I'm experiencing the years ahead of me thru my…

A powerful poem. Fits so many situations and Sneakers. Thank you, Sandy Hugs Marie, it is what it is. Love you

It's true Jeri, your daughter looks like she's one of the children! Sandy, Exactly! Regarding Jim. It doesn't seem to bother him that his sleep apnea is severe enough to kill him. Nap time! Happy birthday party to Robby

Busy trip, so grateful for a rest period before we have to scoot again. Sorry to have mislead anyone, I've not seen the information on weight loss surgery yet. Jim will likely refuse all of it. Have loved all of the posts, videos, and photos. It makes my days!! Lin, feel better soon <3 Be safe everyone Phoebe

Missed you Buzz, was hoping to here from you. Lin, stay safe, cool, and be careful. Must go Phoebe

Lin, you may already have the info. This is a link to a Round Robin book contest. Start by click on the floral circle on this website. http://margaretcoel.com I am a slow starter, as always, so I'd better scoot Phoebe

Hi all, didn't get much done today, but we are not going to work until Thursday. I went with Jim to his dr. Appt with his primary care doctor. She wants him to consider weight loss surgery. She said there are several choices now , more than a few years ago. She had the information for us, but when I got home, I didn't have…

Anne, my vet charges 14.50 for nails. 30.00 for complete grooming. Also, PetSmart does grooming. ., They often have coupons. There are mobile pet groomers, they come to you. Some of them charge more. Phoebe

Cute Lin! Marie, half the battle to reduce sodium is in canned, frozen, and processed foods. Even chicken bought raw has sodium. Some drinks contain sodium. Good luck. Jim won't do most of the things drs.tell him to do. He uses lots of salt. Wish I could use less. I try to drink my water to help flush out excesses. Hope…

Anne, I tip at groomers but I don't at the vet. I don't know why. Just never thought about it until you asked. Sandy, that puppy video, <3 <3 <3 !!! I loved both of the dogs. Anne I wish I could post it here but I don't know how. Hi Jeri, beautiful boys! Hi Marie, have a wonderful day, love you. Phoebe

Buzz, I'm sorry that the 'kids' insulted you, that's how I see it. It's not uncommon. Jim's siblings were not always civil to their new stepmother. I kept repeating that I was grateful for her for taking on the caregiver duties for a very difficult man. I don't think they got it. So I stayed out of it. She was what they…

Love that puzzle! Are these your new towels? Love them, I look for designs I might like but I never see anything!! Yours are the best I've seen. All I ever see are seashells. Funny, when I first looked at the photo, I thought it was some amazing coloring! Like I can't wait for Lin's explanation of how she did this! Phoebe

Patsy, is the pillow for you or Katie? It might be cooling, if you keep still. Do you have fans? Damp towels around your neck might feel good, especially with fans. Katie should be lethargic for a couple of days. They throw off pain much faster than humans. Then it's keeping them from over doing and soon they're right as…

Hurray Sandy you got it!! So cute!

Sandy, which video is it? The first one is about ninjas?

Anne, Jim and I laughed about Jilly the fast learner. She learned more than you wanted though!! Lol, still smiling. Interested in seeing how you unlearn this. Sandy, glad Babe doesn't have severe issues with his stomach. I do hope he'll give the Chiro a good chance. He should expect to be sore a bit since he isn't a…

Lin, I've played majong online, it seem easy so the one you are playing must be the real thing. I wonder if it is actually different? Marie, glad you are still walking. Jerry is so good to you. Love stuffed peppers. Sandy, I hope Babe is OK. I agree, he should at least Try a chiropractor. Easy day here. Keeping up with the…

Slept in today. Treated myself to dinner out. Then groceries. Jim wanted potato soup and biscuits. Now I'm watching 'The Magic of Ordinary Days' on hallmark. I love this movie. Marie, hope you're still doing well. Phoebe

Shirley, Issac is so grown up! Beautiful eyes. You have a great tan by the way. Love this photo

Jackie, had to Google it, there really is a chicken whisperer! http://www.chickenwhisperer.com/

Delivered in Alabama. Heading home for tires. However, after one short traffic jam, Jim decides to ditch the freeway for the back roads and definitely the scenic route. Having trouble seeing this route in my mind, i use Google driving map to see the big picture. Wish I hadn't. We are backtracking by who knows how many…

Jackie, something on Facebook. Might be useless, or funny or not. Mentions a chicken whisperer!! Free webinar https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/1750542733930503171
