begin part 2
Thank you all for the warm welcome! I was worried to say anything to Legs about his sugar situation, but it bothered me much worse not to!
I will be sure to stop by and visit often. I see quite a few familiar names here.
Thanks again!
So glad you did and glad to see ya posting! Hope you'll do so a lot more often! Never be concerned about posting here!
hole weet iz heltheee. Knot fur me!
nermal I think beat me to it, but I was also gonna mention how little difference there is nutritionally between white and plain wheat bread. My son thought wheat was so much more healthy til I read him the labels. And jup, whole grain is another story. When we were in Fla, Seapeach had millet bread. She got hers from a bakery but wow that stuff was sooooooo good, and supposed to be pretty healthy as far as bread goes.
Yeah, she wnats me to wear it 24 hrs a day. I can't sleep without it!
So sorry you have to deal with that hun. Is this a temp thing? Did she say how long?
Well Ginny just had to call the neighbor to come over to clean the ice and snow off our porch in front because of me worrying if something happened we wouldn't be able to get out. It makes me feel so useless. I edited this because the rest was too depressing. Nevermind.
Glad you're feeling better, and Jup, Kenna was spot on about the weather affecting you. But Zen nailed it. Everyone has things they need help with as we get older, and some more than others. Folks get a blessing from helping others that really need it, and if you don't accept it, you rob them of a blessing. You can tell me if I'm way off base here, but it seems like you gotta let go of the anger hun......either at yourself, or the doc or both. I really think that is at the root of the depression about it.
Happy Birthday to Sir Roderick, 72 years old today.
Always did have a crush on Rod the Mod...
I've always loved him too, but of course way more back in the early days.
You COULD gather from this comment that I wasn't a disco fan. I once thought there could be nothing worse ... then RAP proved me wrong.
lmao........jup!!
Around this time, the military contracted with Zenith for the first PCs and the first Z100s started to hit our desks:
My sil lived with me in the late 80s, or early 90s, and had one that looked just like that, but it was, I dunno, apple, compaq, commodore, something like that
I have type 2 and insulin resistance. Added to that the docs finally listened to me, I'm textbook hypo-thyroid, took them 30 years of my gripping that I needed more involved testing and that = higher costs. But it's all good now. Damn, I shouldn't lie
.
Do you mind if I ask what kind of testing you finally got them to do? I believe I am hypo-thyroid, but TSH comes back ok, one time was only 1 pt within normal limits, but I forget which end. I know there is a TSH panel, but they wouldn't do that. You can pm if you'd rather, or just completely ignore my question if it's too invasive.
2. The Ally Bank employee who goes wading to get the quarter that her date tossed into a fountain. Stupid ad. Who would trust a banker who believes the obvious lie that her date tells? "What year is that one?"
what I don't get is, what does it matter WHICH quarter she pulls outta there.
Amazon, where two friends with different faiths buy each other knee pads. Good ad.
Love this ad! Wish real life followed it more.
Unrelated, I've got a stack of 3.5" disks filled with various stuff that I keep for no particularly good reason.
I am kickin myself for finally tossing a bunch I had, there are a lotta things you can make with them craft wise if you were so inclined.
That's why I love TCM, Pat. And there were gazillions of good tv shows. Combat. Life of Riley. I married Joan... the list goes on.
Jup Jup Jup.......love TCM. I don't always think to do it, but when I do......I go through about a week of it, and record a lot of movies! Just did that earlier this week.
That old commercial that was fodder for comedians, IVE FALLEN AND I CANT GET UP. Well not so funny now, took me 45 min. Of crying, hollering at God for the strength to just getup. Finally did get up, but it sure wore me out physically and mentally.
I'm so sorry darlin. I can relate. I've had this happen a few times when I fell and was alone. It truly does leave you feeling helpless, hopeless, and very vulnerable. One time I'd gotten outta the shower to go to the bedroom to get something I'd forgotten...... I was used to carpeting and being able to do that, but this time was at my son and dil's house. I didn't account for the slick laminate flooring. Down I went in a skinny place between two walls... legs and of course knees twisted in ways they were never meant to. So now I'm alone, injured and nekkid! Being overweight made it that much more difficult. Under normal circumstances the only way I can get up off the floor is to scoot backwards to something and use my arms to get me up onto that something.....like a couch. In this case it was the bathtub which really scared me since it was slick. The bed was too high.
Prior to digital switching, electromagnetic stepper switches were used to obtain the phone number you were dialing.
that was really fascinating!
Marco Polo with those kids screaming in the pool!!! Any of the ASPCA commercials for abused animals......I have to quickly change the channel.
I love the Marco Polo one, but the ASPCA ones rip at my heart and make me angry! I don't wanna see that number one, and number two, I doubt they're getting free air time......and I swear those commercials are 3 minutes long! Dunno how long they are, but they seem to go on forever! I have to turn it off also.
Please, don't burst my bubble, LOL. Conservatively speaking, I've got 2,000 recorded newscasts dating back to the 1990s, and a sprinkling from the late 1980s. In audio only recordings, my archives go back to the 1970s. Reckon I'm an OCA (obsessive compulsive archivist). And that doesn't include the hundreds of VHS tapes I've yet to digitize. Oye, way more material than I'll ever watch.
Almost every file is accurately dated though. Like a journey back in time. ;~}
that's kinda neat in a weird way.
We are also preparing for a major ice event. The news channels here in OKC are saying we could get up to 1/2 inch or more of ice and freezing rain overnight and tomorrow.
oh please don't send it this way! I can't get the weather app on the phone to update, I'm sure cuz of the internet issues I'm having so dunno what our forecast is like. Hope you and Scooter and any others up there don't get hit as hard as they say you will. Really hopin y'alls power stays on. Sterno is in an apt with nothing to help him if the power goes out.
Well heres a pic of the new ones along with the phone app that I can make adjustments on. It's going to take a little getting used to they have way more motion and more of your foot stays on the ground when you walk. I'll have to say so far I like them better
soooooooo glad you have yur new ankles and like em so far! I just hope there is never a software glitch that has you doin the quick step without yur permission!
yup...that's what i meant.
