:wub: Thank you, Cathy! We're both really curious to see what tomorrow's CT shows... but we're not really looking forward to it. Most likely, the three months with no treatment has allowed the tumors to grow unchecked, and we're kind of afraid to find out by how much. :(

Please try to stay positive, friend...you never know!

And also, vote for who YOU think is the best candidate, rather than against who you think is the worst.

Sorry, dose days are gone! Ya don't know how much I'd LOVE to vote for, as opposed to against!!

If you truly like a candidates record and policies, vote for that candidate.

People need to stop believing it has to be R or D, otherwise the political landscape of the US will continue to deteriorate.

As ALWAYS, always follow da money! <sigh...>

SB, BB and if necessary for our freedom, da BB... <deep sigh...>

This is the kind I have https://www.amazon.com/Takeya-Coffee-Maker-1-Quart-Black/dp/B00FFLY64U I don't like how it uses more coffee, too. But last time I used it I needed it. Blowing black t----- from NSAIDS, needed the low acid to get my stomach working again.
Oh that's kewl. We just put in a glass jar, like a empty mayo jar, and stirred it up. never thought to strain it through a tea strainer like Janet did........been wanting to get one of those. We just used regular Folgers though. Straining was a pain! Had to put it through coffee filters a couple of times, took forever! Lots of mess getting the bulk of the grounds outta the mayo jar etc. Then making coffee, was putting some of the cold pressed concentrate into the cup, heating water in a pan, and filling the cup. You'd have to use even more coffee with courser grounds than we did, but would likely have less of a mess. It made amazing coffee, but just wasn't worth it. Although the thing you linked to would help a lot!

Good Job!! I like em both. I have an old chest of drawers that I bought for 10.00 at a yard sale, in 1984 (was pregnant with my son). Still using it, and I love it, but it desperately needs to be refinished!

Well its official the PA thing is not coming up for a vote. The session for this year ended. 2017 at the earliest. Sad sad day. :(
:-x :grr:

And actually there are hundreds more free apps for Apple products than for androids.
oh that's kewl!

HBO. Oh, u meen like with the kodi box? ;)
I'll repeat. Anything that has ever been broadcast (WORLDWIDE) can be found on kodi. Including live tv, movies and sports. Again... worldwide. Yes, netflix, hulu, roku, whatever. ALL of it. In fact, if you have every box and prime and everything else... they only (barely) scratch the surface of kodi. And... itz still all free.
Are there some paid apps? Jup. But never found one that had something the free add ons didn't have.
It would be great, but I just don't like supporting piracy and from what I hear, much of it is pirated.

Teenagers sure can talk! My 16 1/2 year old grandson talked to me from six o'clock until after midnight with only about 30 minutes or an hour off during that time. About 6 hours straight of talking. I wish I had the energy to talk that much.

Time for bed.
hehehe At least he talks to ya. He didn't say but a few words around all us women. :rolleyes: He's such a cutie pie!! And he'd hate me if he knew I said that on the web!

Been using Kodi on my tablet since about the second time Gary mentioned it. Thanks Gary. :wub: It's great! We only have internet, no cable, Amazon, or any other "TV". BUT, I got my daughter this Kodi box for her birthday in a couple of weeks. Beelink MINI MXIII II TV Box Amlogic S905X Quad Core. And this double sided wireless mouse/keyboard. TK668 2.4GHz Wireless Air Mouse. I know, Gearbest..... But, It looks to be a good deal, and I did do a lot of "homework" before buying, within my budget. Got them in about two weeks (paid a little extra for faster shipping). Haven't hooked it up yet, and I'm really excited. I hope she likes it, and I'll let you all know how it works.

Wow. Sorry, didn't mean to write a novel. :(
welcome to the porch!! If you've been here before, I musta slept through it

@Myrany & @Debadoo

These are the recipes that I unearthed for what claims to be Sour Green Apple Jolly Rancher. I haven't tried any of them, so if you do, let me know! Unfortunately the creator's names weren't included :(

#1
Apple Candy (TPA) 10%
Sour (TPA) 5%
Sweetener (Sucralose) (TPA) 5%

#2
Jolly ranchers = fw hard candy 5-8% depending on taste. Then just add whatever fruit you want. 3-4% tfa green apple for example. Lorann tart n sour, or tfa sour might work, get some malic acid, or 1% tfa sea buckthorn for a nice puckering effect.

#3
Green Apple (TPA) 8%
Jolly Rancher (TPA) 6%
MTS Vape Wizard (FA) 1%
Sour (TPA) 1%

#4
Apple Sour
PA Apple Green 14%
Ethyl Maltol 6%
Bitter Wizard 2%

#5
TFA Green Apple 19%
FW Jolly Rancher 4%

I'm thinking I'm going to try #3, but I'm going to replace the green apple with Granny Smith Apple (Tart Green Apple) TFA and not use the Sour for now. Hope this helps some!
Ohhhhhhh you darlin you!!! Well for now I'll be try #4 without the bitter wizard, and using Cap green apple, cuz that's what i've got lol Anxious to see how your #3 comes out.

@Rotowoman - Happy Birthaversary!

Happy Birthday!!!

Hope you have your best one ever!


I was searching helicopter cakes....... then typed in PHI helicopter cakes, and somehow found this surfer cake, and I figgered you look at enough choppers as it is, maybe this would be more fun to look at!!!

We'll have to do that for about the next six weeks. After that point, she says that the pleura should re-attach to the lung and there is a less than ten percent chance that fluid will accumulate after that. So that was good news, because we were expecting that this was going to be a long term issue. :)

Also, yesterday afternoon, we heard back about the clinical trial medications. Our insurance had denied coverage and denied all appeals. We applied for Merck's Patient Assistance Program. About a week and a half ago Merck denied our request, but said that we may qualify for an exception clause and allowed us to apply for that. We did, and it was approved yesterday! YAAYYYY!!!
Soooooooo glad they did the drain, so y'all can take care of it, just sorry she has to deal with that on everything else. But sooooooooo happy that the pleural space will likely heal up after a month or so, so it won't continue, and soooooooo thrilled she was accepted into the trial!!!

Walked the superstore today, forgot something and power-walked quickly to get it before the bus arrived to pick me up...all total about an hour normal walking, 20 min.s boot scooting...and







:D

that's fantastic!! Just don't do that every day. Rest a day, then do more, then rest a day etc. Not 4 days straight til ya feel like poop for 2 weeks. :D

This should be my epitaph....:)
How many times I gotta tell ya, ya aint allowed to die!

ok...now I'm just gettin sappy...gonna go watch the play-offs :)
Who ya rootin for? I know Kad is going for the Cubs.

Enjoy yur bubble bath!! Dunno if I still have it or not, but used to have a stamp set that had a stamp in it that looked so much like what you posted!

how about Bill nearly being Impeached and we are going to put them back in the White House.
Precisely!!

Not going to get into who I think is the best, but I am going to say, VOTE! And also, vote for who YOU think is the best candidate, rather than against who you think is the worst. In my opinion, anyone who says "I don't like either of them" but then votes for the one they dislike the least is throwing their vote away. If you truly like a candidates record and policies, vote for that candidate. I dislike what the whole "Don't throw your vote away" argument has led to in politics.
My :2c:
Others beat me to it. I do totally agree with you........it's just gonna take more than an election for it to ever happen I think. Because it is all about the money and other corruption. If they ever got a person in the oval office they couldn't control, they'd shoot em, or if they couldn't dig up enough dirt on em to ruin em, they'd invent it! I hate being so pessimistic, but I totally believe that's where we're at.

I think my next one is going to be about Benghazi. I really agree with Trump on that she is a criminal and had warnings before and didn't do anything. I know one thing my vote won't be for her but still undecided whether to throw my vote away and vote for someone other then the main 2 or vote for Trump. My Grandaughter voted yesterday and said they are having record numbers of voter turn out in Texas and I think Arizona so far. That is something that the polls are not taking into consideration. The thinking I heard were there was going to be a real low number of voters this year. So that's my political statement for the day. I want to know more and not going to rule Trump out because of biased media or something he did when he was not even considering politics. If you want to air dirty laundry how about Bill nearly being Impeached and we are going to put them back in the White House. This is going to be real interesting. It could go either way.
Bill was impeached. He was not removed from office.

thanks hun, will watch a vid on this. Do you or have you used one? Do you get sludge in the bottom of the cup if you just use Folgers coffee? Thought about an Aeropress but decided I really didn't want one, but will check this out, much cheaper, kinda the same thing.

thanks. If I go that route I can get an 11 oz one at Amazon.
