Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

Almost forgot…..my Dvarw is coiled and……….no glasses needed.

Later last night the temp in my room got up 74 due to the heat being on and my door is always closed. I checked the weather which said 40’s overnight so I opened a window. That worked well for sleeping.

Hi all,

I quit posting a while back because I felt so bad being in the that horrible old folks home. But I am home now and feeling much better! The knee is doing so well I can walk with no assistance - it's the rest of me that is still paying for being in the tiny room with a tiny bed for a month. I fell in the bathroom about 5 days ago (still in the Home) and that wound up tearing me up pretty good and I thought I was ok.

I was by myself and getting up from the toilet when I lost my balance and fell backward. The toilet is in a corner so I couldn't fall far and I didn't - I thought I was alright until about 2 days later when everything went nuts.

So while the knee is great everything else is hurting but being home it is all improving rapidly.

Glad you are back home. Sounds like you are on the mend.

Good morning random folks Have you any plans today?

Morning Fran. Today my plan is to catch up on a little work, maybe do a little studying, and do laundry. And probably take a nap.

You?

I got a cup of tea to finish hot drinks for the day.

I also have a Dvarw base which is now wicked and ready to go.

I had plans to coil my Dvarw but I already did that. I have my last hot drink in hand and thinking about mixing something or working on recipes.

I hardly ever do naps. It bothers my sleeping at night.

Will it now stay cold throughout the winter, or will you get back into the 80's? Here where we live there is a small window of pleasurable temps. It's hot and then the temps dip down into the mid 70's for about 2 weeks, then BAM (!!!) it's 48 degrees and just continues to fall. We were still in the 30's the last week of April this year.

It's windy here, but not like Amarillo I am sure. I don't know it it's true or not but someone once told me Amarillo is the windiest city in America.

Who knows? Generally it will get colder for a month or two...remember last year's storm of the century, but there have been t-shirt and shorts days at Christmas before. This year is predicted to be mild. I certainly hope so. I can't have two storms of the century. The saying if you don't like the weather in Texas, just wait 5 minutes, is generally true.

As to the 2.5 coils in the Dvarw.. I have no problem with that size at all. Even when I wind my own I do a 2.5. No problems at all. I always have plenty of wick to block the holes.

I normally am not a nap person either, but the more I sleep, the quicker I get over my sickness.

Agree. The 2.5 are the perfect size for me in the Dvarw. I generally use 2.5 in the Brunhilde too.

They say the same thing about the weather here.

Yup, I do too.

This is true and you should nap.

They say that about Missouri too. I always have a hoodie or extra jacket in my car, because you never know if it will be needed.

 

[FranC]

Not going to use it yet but I should clean my silver brunhilde.

 

[Redbird11]

I will. I also need to take my dog for a walk. She has been cooped up for a few days since I've been sick and she is getting very restless.

I guess they say that about a lot of states.

The silver version looks really sharp. Although I think I like the dark blue just a bit more. I also have the gunmetal, but haven't actually use it yet.

I’m sure your doggie will be happy to get out for a walk.

My sbs is silver so it will look good together. My blue one will get put away for now.
