QuoteI saw we have a new member Grammabearson, I expect it is Kathy's son. Hopefully we will get some good news when he posts. That is still my prayer.

I am afraid the news is devastating. Kathy is no more. R.I.P Kathy

120 this partly cloudy morning. Not surprised, I fell again last night and have some new bruises and achy muscles. I'm OK, no worries.

39° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 37°/24°.

My heart is broken over the news of Kathy's passing. That was really unexpected. RIP dear Kathy.

Three items from my latest Amazon order are coming today, 2 via UPS who will drive to my door and one USPS who will leave it in a plastic bag at the head of the road. I've left a message with my neighbor asking him to please bring it to me, only fair as it is a 22# bag of dry cat food...since his DD's cat is the one that had all the yard tigers!

I am OK with muddling on. This is my home and I will stay to the bitter end. I don't want this to end, I love everyone that is left.

I wish Shottlebop would post more than just his stats. skb, any chance of drawing carbcrazydog back? Was Paloma her name?

And Rocky?

Her name is Paulomi. I can contact her by email. I was compiling a list of some of the old timers who do hop in once in a while. RCG (Richard) was here a few days ago, but left after a couple of posts. Will give it a shot.

89 this morning.  I am late to post this morning.  Pain sitting in my chair at the computer was just too bad.  I get relief laying on my back in the bed.
Yes, I think an email from the forum would be a good idea, at least it is worth the effort.

133 this foggy morning. Still hurting from fall, trying to take it easy so hopefully bg will drop down to "normal:\".

39° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 38°/21°.

Apologies to Paulomi, I was close, but no cigar... Yes, a message from the forum would be an excellent idea.

140 today morning. A small portion of rice every night is doing that, but I am continuing with it.

89 this morning.  Weather looks pretty boring for the next few days but it is pretty nice so not complaining.
I seem to do well with a small portion of rice as long as it is small'

128 this mostly clear morning.

32° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 36°/20°. The snow/ice is barely melting new snow in the forecast for Wednesday. Ugh! At least I don't have to go anywhere for a while.

I have started some natural supplementation which consists of a glass of juice from garlic and lime. Had one glass an hour before I was fully awake. When I tested I was 158 but then this is not a real fasting.

88 this morning.  SKB, that sounds kind of weird.  I don't think I could get that down.
I have had a persistent cough from deep in my chest and I am starting to think it could be covid.  I have been fully vaccinated and boosted so should be OK but this cough is persistent.  I don't have any other symptoms, temp is normal etc. but I am going to seek a testing site, not much available here right now.

149 this partly cloudy morning. No idea where this # came from, I feel fine, no temp, no clue...

38° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 40°/19° some warming trend....

skb, that sounds like an interesting concoction. Do you cook down the garlic and combine it with the juice or just mull the garlic in the juice?
