138 this morning. Between my hand and my tooth I think the pain is pushing bg up. 2 weeks before hand dr appointment.

30° was the high yesterday mostly sunny. Today's forecast is 36°/23° partly cloudy. Air quality is unhealthy here due to the inversion in the weather pattern. Won't be outside much so not bothered by that.

Idiots were shooting off fireworks from 8PM until after midnight! I really felt sorry for the cats. I slept late this morning and hear them bumping around on the porch now, so better get to feeding them!

106 this morning.  or high yesterday was 50° and the overnight low was 30°.  Today the high is supposed to be warmer at 60° s that is better.  The chance of rain Wednesday is fading and while closer to the coast it still looks good here we will most likely not see anything.
Yeah, we have the same idiots here and they started setting off fireworks at 7:00 PM.  Poor dog doesn't do well with the booms but she managed and is just fine this morning.
A tooth ache can be really debilitating and I am sure it is causing you problems.  Hope you can get it taken care of soon.

153 this morning. Pizza saying gotcha again!

Yesterday's high was 38° a lovely day! Today's forecast is 35°/17° partly cloudy with freezing fog this morning. First snow in forecast is Sat evening through Sunday afternoon. Just hoping it is light. I don't want to have to shovel much at this point because of my hands.

I've been wearing my brace on my right hand most of the day and it helps a little. Wish the 16th would get here fast!

102 this morning.  Our high yesterday was 60° and the overnight low was 31°.  The rain predicted for Wednesday has evaporated and now there is nothing in sight but in a lot of Southern California they are expecting to see rain and snow in the mountains. 
I do pretty well with homemade pizza using the cauliflower crust I find at Walmart.  I think you said you did not find it and here it is a typical Walmart hit or miss trying to find it.  One of the things I like is that it is pre-cooked.

Yeah this was a regular pizza. I have already pulled all of the topping off and thrown all the crust away. It will go on zucchini noodles for a couple dinners.

Next time I go to town, I'll check the other WalMart up there for the cauliflower crusts. What section of the grocery section are they in?

159 (wow!) this morning. Bad timing for these numbers I see pcp for new A1c on the 9th! This could be my worst A1c in years.

24° was the high yesterday. Never saw the sun, just freezing fog all day. Today's forecast is 34°/25° with clouds. Dreary weather, typical Jan. May see some snow by weekend. Hoping not much.

It will be a quiet day, I hope! I am tired of hurting all the time! Hands and tooth, makes it hard to feel like fixing food or eating, or doing much of anything. Oh well, as least the cats give me pleasure and comfort.

106 this morning.  We had a high of 57° yesterday and a warmer overnight low of 46° but the high today is still supposed to be the same as yesterday.  Barbara I am not sure where the pizza crust is at Walmart, my BIL does the grocery shopping or I order on line for car pickup.  Hope you are able to get relief from the tooth and hand soon.  If I had a tooth ache I would see my dentist as soon as I could get an appointment.  I hate a tooth ache but I keep a bottle of Orajel on hand just in case.  It seems to help some.

Thanks for the recommendation of orajel. I will pick some up next time I go out. Waiting for responses from a couple friends re dentist. Fingers crossed I can find one that can see me soon. Sux not having dental ins!!

143 this morning. Hopefully getting tooth fixed will help with the numbers.

24° was the high yesterday with freezing fog all day. Today is supposed to be better, no freezing fog at least. Forecast is 35°/24° with possible snow flurries overnight. More snow on the way but not huge amounts.

Need to make sure kitty coolers are well filled with straw and shelters sturdy.

It looks like our Amazon Link is broken. Hope skb notices it. Maybe needs to be renewed for the year?

BG 121today. Our high yesterday was 60° and the overnight low was 39° and that looks like it will be there for the next couple of days. Farther North they are getting rain and snow in the Sierras so that is a good thing.  So far the snow pack is below the average so hoping it picks up.
Yeah, I was going to make a purchase today and noticed the link was gone. I'll wait to hear from SKB. I had copied the link and saved it to my desktop and now it is gone.   ~tnk~

Amazon has deprecated Banners and we could put up a stripe instead. I'll see what we can do.

OK. I've put a new link in the same spot in the right panel. But this is still a work in progress. Use this Button for the time being. Sorry for any inconvenience.

That works! We don't need it to be a banner just a link, the button is fine with me, to take us to Amazon so we get the credit here.

132 this morning.

26° was the high here yesterday. Still cloudy and freezing fog. That is supposed to break today. Some snow flurries early this morning, then cloudy with temps 34°/23°. Some snow on and off but accumulations only around an inch.

Yesterday when I was feeding the kitties, they were swarming me at morning feeding and I accidentally stepped on one's foot. I felt so bad, I try so hard to just shuffle when I go out AM but no luck yesterday. It took off but came back later to other feeding station and ate, but it was limping. I need to watch for it this morning...hope it is better.

I fell again last evening. The exact same place I fell last year end of Jan. Tripped over the leg of my elliptical! I banged up left calf and my left hip a bit tender. I really need to get rid of that thing! I know I'll never use it again!

Well there it is, first fall of the new year! Sheesh!
