Hold your hands up, palm out. Make an L with your thumb and index fingers. The side that makes an actual L is your left hand :D
But how do you remember whether it's palms out or palms in?

Way back when, when I asked which was right and which was left, Mom or Dad said: "Which hand do you use to hold your spoon?" That always worked well; all 4 of us kids are righties.

I thought it was you, or maybe Kay, who rents a car once a month to go shopping. I am carrying minimal insurance, and have reserved a rental car to go to a family wedding next month. Just called my insurance company, and full insurance for special occasions is only $2.50 a day.

He is really trying hard to make me a regular customer.
It's Kay who does that. Wow, that's nice to know that the insurance is only 2.50/day. I know the car rental places ask if you want insurance, but no idea how much it is. I don't have an insurance carrier anymore since I no longer have a vehicle or renter's insurance though. Then again, I don't rent cars either, just use my son's if I need to. But am curious about it.

Well back from the VA with a new $14000 worth of pills. My HGB was up again from 10.5 to 11.5. My weight which had gone from 139 to 142 was down to 138. One puzzling thing was my glucose which is always around 120-130 was down to 57. He was asking me if I felt dizzy yesterday and I didn't, least not any more then usual Right Gary. Don't understand it because I had had my protein shake and a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch with sugar on top before I went. Oh well at least the HGB is getting there. He said that the Viral Load won't be back for 7-10 days and a lot of people are non detectable at 4 weeks so we'll see.
HGB yay!! weight...not so good, but maybe not awful, not sure. Glucose was really not good and rather puzzling. Also I would have thought that would have been a fasting stick, but maybe not. But I would imagine what you'd eaten maybe just didn't have time to metabolize before the stick. Hope that's it

Gas here is 2.60 and we are not even affected by what's going on down there but we have the 2nd highest gas tax in the nation.
Y'all always have the highest or near highest dang near everything! Specially when it comes to taxes!!

Kenna, hope the highlight thing works for you. Hate for you to be frustrated over em. Others get frustrated over a zillion posts. LIS I'll do it ever how the majority want. Cept no way could I keep up with the way Birdie does it. And with those I never remember what the OP was about :facepalm:

did you get your refund? Hope so.
Yes, but I had forgotten about the order, and if I had forgotten past Sept 30, it would have been over 90 days and too late to file the "item not received" claim.

I have never had a glucose that low maybe they made a mistake. It's always in the normal if not a little bit high level.

If you can remember to do that - you can remember which is your left hand without doing that...

You would be surprised.
Seem to be missing my quote fron Pat - that's why I specified palms out...
I second this!! All in favor.............
Yeah! Aye! Eye! Yes!

Well, I learned something interesting on Jeopardy tonight. Godzilla was made an honorary citizen of Japan back in 2015...
I saw that too. Very interesting. Giess Godzilla put Japan "on the map" so to speak. Maybe, na, maybe not, oh well. :unsure: :blink: :blush: :rolleyes:

OK, got this today:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EORQEBO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

I've got pretty strong hands, but couldn't get the lid off without employing some channel locks, and I REALLY tried! Dang, that lid was on tight!

Pretty good, but not exactly my thing. I'm not sure why I don't find them perfect. Yes, I'll definitely finish this jar, but the other 3 jars will be gifts without regret.
I'm upping my rating. 2 medium-thick slices of deli turkey on whole wheat with 7 slices of these sweet/hot jalapenos... excellent! It has just now become harder to give away 3 jars, but I will.
