    good morning. yes judy the guy totally dismissed warnings and safety precautions and all the words from the experts he hired and did what he wanted to do but it didn't turn out well for him or the people he had with him. it was an interesting watch. so many movies are so incredibly...

    I did a yard walk yesterday for half an hour, and this morning we did our usual park walk, the one we haven't been able to make while DH's knee is so troublesome. he got his new brace delivered friday night. it's better than the temp one he's been using but not dramatically. more dental...

    I agree its easy to get too much clutter . texts to each phone work and stay separate. ive read about the problem but have not found a solution except splitting email into two addresses. . any incoming call to either phone shows up in the "recent call" list as do VMs. junk I delete...

    DH and I have had a long standing disagreement on deleting things on our phones. we share an email address, so call records get deleted from one phone delete from both, even though different numbers. I want to keep some calls under recent calls to remember who called and when. he...

    " we" went for a root canal this morning. i drove. it took 2 and a half hours but went well. we will tick these things off, one at a time. DH did not get good care as a child. he and his sister both inherited some affinity for problems, and have similar problems. he has been...

    cathy SF prides itself you never needing AC. Ive been there when it really really did. hotels/motels are not geared for any cross ventilation. rooms are always hot and stuffy and full of stale air. Ive stayed in plenty and not anything i enjoy. my least favorite activity. yes, speed...

    my sister and I arent even the same species! we agree on nothing. i only deal with her because no one else will and its not likely to change. even her kids wont talk to her anymore. so many places are HOT. its maybe a little less uncomfortable than humid places but just in a...

    just finished our ride 15 miles on our regular trail. lovely out with lots of birds. we saw the merganser with her babies again. i think there are 14 ducklings but they zoom around so quickly up and down that its hard to be sure they are on the river below the bridge we ride over so we can...

    there are only a few places I ride on roads with vehicles. the areas we ride are well known bike routes in farm country. we go early morning on weekends. even if roads have shoulders, all the debris and broken glass ends up swept to the shoulder making it worse than the traffic lane...

    Shannon we ride a paved bike/walking trail. we ride some roads around here but very few . mostly in farming areas. there are small sections on busy roads, like going across bridges, where there is no bike lane. no way will you win a duel with a car or an asshat driver. no death wish...

    ended up doing more gardening today because it was cooler and cloudy, much easier to get things done then. its a microclimate area where our garden sits, and it gets very warm there. congrats on getting in some walking. the older you are, the more likely you are assumed to be a total coach...

    Cathy Puss is ambidextrous!. he opens both right and left doors and cabinets. he didnt know how when he first got here. learned quickly. he opened some full size doors that didnt latch completely so he could check out our exercise room. its so nice to know DH has gotten attached to...

    Good morning. we rode the regular trail this morning. the knee issue is increasingly a problem. we will hopefully get definite plans when his dentist calls back & hopefully sees him tomorrow to evaluate whats needed. dental work and an orthopedic procedure need to be separated in...

    Dh's knee didn't improve much so we decided to drive home yesterday. it was either friday or saturday. 12 hours, the last 2 hours in terrible traffic. ugh. we left later expecting to arrive in the metro area later, but somehow we made up the time and got here too early, it was pretty...

    Good morning everyone. weve been keeping busy here. i remember a party line but not for too long. my mother liked to blabber on the phone for hours so they got a private line early on. yep cathy, she was one of the chatty ones. nothing important either, just like to yak endlessly. i...

    I really was tired yesterday., but just before dinner I did most of the exercises from stacked upper body plus a few others using the gear i have here. I have better 12 lb dumbbells here so use them instead of the 10's. i dont like the fat handles of the coated dumbbells. also the core...

    shannon when people hear "russian thistle" they might think of the tall spiny plant with the neon pink flowers. Weeds end up with so many common names and regional names that its not always clear what plant we are talking about. this is tumbleweed in its green and growing state. its spiny...
