Older Folks and Vaping Back Porch - Part Five

Hugs, Bells. I am so sorry for your loss.

I could handle the Vicks 44 but nyquil is just nasty. Tastes like licorice, too!

As soon as you get a touch of High Blood Pressure you're not supposed to take any of that stuff anymore.

Well, hell, I quoted some posts and they up and disappeared on me. I stayed outside most of the day. I plugged a hole in my fence

That took all day?

 

[MattB101]

that should be really great for Matt's A1C !!!

Went to see the doc today and she wasn't all that worried then I found out that my A1C was 14.5 when I was diagnosed with diabetes. 9 ain't nuttin. Besides I know why it went up and I'll get it back down right away. Also lost 10lbs in the last 30 days, loving it!

Love those horehound candies!

I knew a guy who was a horehound once. Oh, candy! Nevermind!

my aunt and my mom both went by their middle names, but I know why and don't blame em. My grandparent's were great, but needed their head examined when it came to naming children! My aunt was Hazel Jean and my mom was.......ready for this...... Bertha Alberta

My Mom got the name from hell among her siblings. Mable Winifred. She's always gone by Freddie. I always went by Kenny until about 1990. Then I started using Kenna all the time.

I'm safe so far!

You are the ONLY other person I know of who remembers and/or ever had any paregoric. I remember measles, chicken pox........all those miserable childhood diseases that were so painful and itchy.....my mom would "help me sleep" by giving me paregoric.

Another one here! I even used paregoric on my two youngest's gums when they were teething!

 

[MattB101]

Obviously it must be a dog treat in the cage! Come on MOM he wants to play with the dog treat!

Growing up we had a shepard/collie mix named Lady. She could run down the beach and snatch a full grown seagull outta the air in mid flight. I think she ate one of just about every pet we had growing up 'cept the cats. They didn't put up with no guff. Great dog just didn't see a small critter she didn't like (to eat). We had a parakeet that would dive bomb her when she was laying on the living room floor. One day she just snatched it outta the air and spit it out onto the carpet. No more problems.

Don't try this at home!
And now for something completely different:

With an introduction, he will recognize that the hamster is a member of the pack, with the same status as the human members. If you disagree with the puppy's developing concept of the pack, then it is your fault.

Either that or lunch!

That makes at least 3 of us who don't like licorice because of paragoric.

i can't stand licorice either so maybe that is why although I don't really remember paragoric but, knowing my mom, she gave it to us.

Bells...my condolences go to you and all your family.{{{HUGS}}}}

On Sunday I lost my Uncle David, for whom I was named. All eleven siblings of Dad's family are now gone. It makes me feel kind of naked. No one called James David Bellware "James". Like all the men in that family, he did not use his first name. One, my Uncle Pete, used neither his first NOR his middle name. (His given name was George Lewis Bellware.)

Fortunately I've always been able to lose weight to a certain point without thinking about it.

Sorry for your loss Bells. Condolences to you and your family.

I took a semester of music theory back in 1970. Then again, I think I got a D.

D-major or D-minor?
