Carolyn I'm very cautious about unknown callers. when I expect a call and need to give our gate code to get in, I make an exception. I had a couple minutes only because I saw their truck drive by to turn around to back down the driveway. steep driveway so I had all of 7 minutes to empty...

Refrigerator came yesterday. delivery crew was more than an hour early. I had to empty two refrigerators in an instant, because I was waiting until the last hour to do it. they apparently called DH's phone but he didnt answer because he didnt recognize the number. his phone ... I didnt...

Lots of rain yesterday and today. we get light rain for a long time, not the texas style flooding rains. I did therapy only yesterday. nothing yet today. we need to do a refrigerator switch around tomorrow. planned to get a cheap garage refrigerator to replace the 35 yo one we have...

so that must have been a skink cathy? the lizard with the blue tongue? wow. interesting critter. seattle has a zoo but I dont think Ive ever been there. maybe when I first moved here but I dont think so. I love seeing all those unusual ( for us) animals moving around in a reasonably...

We did a road ride yesterday, the usual 15 miler. it was lovely out and not crowded. did therapy work later. today we did a mountain bike early. still cold out and muddy but we expected it to be crowded later because of some closures in other parts of their forest. cut it a little...

I do not live where tornados happen. that is a big fear and I got out of the midwest just to not have to think about them. diane sue that must have been so depressing to see things completely destroyed like that. I did a 30 min spin and a series of bicep tricep exercises although not a...

Cathy , texts between iphones are blue. if another brand phone is involved, the text changes to green. also happens if imessage is not turned on in settings on one of the phones. that was one thing that was weird....all 3 phones involved in the swap out were iphones but still turned...

issues with our phones settled down by themselves... when you switch numbers on a phone.... taking my number and putting it on a brand new phone, while taking DH's number off his old phone and putting it on my phone, its bound to cause a short period of awkwardness. we had to reset imessage...

cathy, its not likely. we cant communicate between our two phones. still not needed right now so we will wait til monday. he had turned imessage off. texts were green rather than blue. of course he didnt mention it ...so I thought that was the reason for issues and turned it back...

spent half the day at Verizon store. DH needed to get a new phone. his was dying. we decided he would use my old one and I would get the new one, so we had to change up the phone numbers and all the data. It was a tedious long process. everyone in the store had an upper respiratory issue...

Back to serious rain today. I did therapy exercises that I do most days along with upper body weights, pushups, plank. then I did part of revved up rumble. not all, the warm up and part of the first session. I think it felt ok but I want to be sure. I haven't done anything in so long I'm I...

I have a round brush for hummingbird feeders. used it on my water bottle, rinsed a few more times. it's ok now. they are softer plastic. hold onto soap taste. they have flip top lids to protect the drinking spout. we use them for mt bike riding. lots of horses use the same trail. the splash...

turns out there was ( likely) soap residue in my water bottle. it had been washed and rinsed multiple times but its hard to get rid of all the soap. something about the plastic makes soap cling. DH said it tasted soapy but I didnt notice anything right away. I drank a little but not much. so...

we did our regular ride this morning, 15 miles. it felt good. I didnt feel good yesterday but Ok today. My parents were very rigid with us, too far the other direction. We would have been vaporized if we did 10% of what these kids did freely. it was still a fantastic museum and I'm glad...

Cathy the parents let kids run and scream. we were in the museum over 2 hours. the displays were incredible but we burned out on the racket. the two floors had an open atrium in the center. going upstairs or down didn't help much because the noise spread everywhere. we tried to go to...

The really good stuff were the ruins and the petroglyphs. we saw many old collapsed buildings, and some of them you can walk or crawl through. I dont enjoy the ones you can only view from a distance. unfortunately a lot of people dont respect the history so the best ruins end up being...

we did what we seldom do, stayed in an RV campground. we reserved spacewith our neighbors who have the same camper we have. we took our camper off. used our truck to commute to trailheads. DH got a lot of driving. the roads were fairly horrendous. the first part of our trip was for mt...

drove home yesterday from the halfway point in idaho. we should have waited and left later in the morning but it was very cold and extremely windy. the campground is next to a wildlife refuge. it was too crummy out to look at birds. it was below 32 as all the sprinkler water was freezing...

Hi all. We are on our way home. Could not log in until. Today. Lots of hiking. And good weather. Busy busy area.

I wear gloves for a lot of things. reynauds can pop up if I get slightly cold, and cause numbness. it sometimes comes up when riding, due to the extra pressure from gripping handlebars. I started using a handwarmer packet for one hand to prevent it. I wear gloves to stay warmer in cold...
