we did our usual trail ride this morning. 1 hr 20 minutes, 15 miles. DH is swollen but otherwise feeling half way decent. he was born with fairly crummy teeth and didnt get good care as a child. both he and his older sister have similar problems with unexplained abscesses and...

diane sue thats how i do it now. i do child's pose a lot and a toned down, subdued version of cat/cow. its how i finish off my floor therapy exercises i want to keep things moving but i am still very flexible despite the surgery and i dont want to over flex my metal parts. we have a...

judy he sounded very upset , and so are the many dog/cat owners here who cant imagine what happened. was it intentional? a terrible accident? nobody has a bunch of cyanide just sitting around the garage! its deadly dangerous to handle at all. my guess is someone was concerned about...

yesterday DH had his big oral surgery. it didnt take too long, an hour, but tough one. he is doing ok with some swelling and needs to keep it toned down this week. careful with eating and drinking etc. soft pedal exercise. i was very busy all day so took a day off exercise. we live in...

a big reason i moved to the PNW was its cooler here most of the time. a lot of people hate it but im happy at 50 degrees!. i cant function when its hot. we set our AC to 65 although it never gets close to that. the house doesnt need much heat in winter. we like windows open...

its crazy what insurance will cover or not cover. DH needed this knee brace and medicare denied it. he needs a partial knee replacement and it wont cover a several hundred dollar brace to get him thru the time until surgery? we bought it ourselves, it was around $500. the sales rep said...

raining this morning so no walk. DH is back to the dentist as temp crown came off already. i feel so bad for him.! dental stuff is relentless. shannon that is awful about the ticks. we have more trouble with ticks than we used to. ticks are expanding their ranges due to climate...

We did another ride this morning. an hour and 15 minutes 15 miles. we might do a walk again as the brace is helping. he's off at the dentist this afternoon. there's this ripple effect where if one appt gets changed, everything downhill from that needs to change too. shannon we...

We used to have sales meetings in Florida usually january-ish depending. it was always too hot and humid but the higher-ups wanted to golf. for sure the last place in the world I wanted to be was on a golf course ( intense grass allergy) in hot humid florida. i thought it was hideous...

we did our regular ride this morning, 75 minutes 15 miles. its been really lovely outside. sunny not hot and not humid. diane sue i looked at my back braces. i have 2. one is a Sparthos brand. it has a stiff reinforced triangle in the lower back and wraps over the front with huge...

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...

shannon it has not been that hot in WA this year yet. didnt type that right. it was last summer or the year before with the 115 readings but it was early in the season . this year it was in the low 100's on eastern WA and low 90's in parts of western. we got to mid 80'shere but it...

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...
