  • Yum, tasty.

    Maybe not today, though.

    Quick Grab did get updated at DAZ noon. With nothing I want. All too new and expensive. Having said that, just being 'not-free' is too expensive for me at the moment.

    Regards,

    Richard

    Complaint:  Rain on a necessary travel day:  Tomorrow is doctor appointment day.  8:00AM bus to doctor's office, arrive at 8:25AM, toddle across the street for breakfast at little diner next to the hospital, toddle back to office for appointment scheduled for 9:15AM.  Done with doctor at about 10:00, Uber to somewhere to do minor grocery shopping or get takeout food.  Finally, Uber home.  But the weather report says "heavy rain" all day.  Harumph!no

    Complaint:  Lots to complain to doctor about this time.  Advancing arthritis symptoms, rashes on skin, advancing neuropathy in feet, unexplained lumps in muscles, growing number of  blotches in skin.  Yeah, yeah, I'm gettin' old, and taking lots of medications with various side effects, but I still need to have them examined.indecision  I suspect a tide of new series of blood tests & biopsies in my immediate future.frown  At least I still have all my teeth (i.e. no gaps), and none in imminent danger of falling out, and my repaired eyes are still working well (knock on wood), and I can still walk without a cane (for a few blocks a day).  Life is good.smiley

    Non-complaint:  There has been lots of rain for the last couple of days and will be in the forseeable future.  But the shingling of the roof is done, the yard debris has been picked up, and it's not snowing, yet.  And I have a good umbrella.yes

    Sorry.  I went to the hospital yesterday.  I fell Friday but went to the hospital yesterday to make sure I had no broken bones.

    I was sitting infront of word and wrote 398 words of the story I am working on.  That is great.  I got distracted because I apparently wrote centre as center and Word said that was wrong.  Oh, well.

    I just went to indeed and applied through them to Chick Fil A.  I got a phone interview tomorrow night.  Hope something good comes out of it.

  • Complaint update: This weekend husband is going to try getting the battery for one of our other laptops (that is a few years newer than HAL) replaced so I can use that until we can afford a couple new computers since his laptop is also long in the tooth. Plus try to recover at least some of my hard drive.

  • TSasha SmithTSasha Smith Posts: 27,238

    I am having difficulty with my Bluetooth on my computer.  I'm trying to figure out what is what is happening.

    I probably need to work on my next load of laundry soon.

    And now for a public service announcement from The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and their very random and unpredictable spokesdog, Adorable Idiot...

    Adorable Idiot says.. "Be Shark Smart!"

    If a shark rings your doorbell and says they are selling Girl Scout cookies or their car broke down and they need to use your phone, don't open the door unless they show you the cookies or you can see their car...

    Never open the door to a shark offering to give you an estimate on a new roof or power washing your home... Especially if you live in an apartment.
    Just say "No thank you".

    Be wary of sharks online posing as victims of natural disasters trying to use a GoFundMe account to rebuild their homes... most sharks live in apartments and the few who own homes are actually quite wealthy.

    When visiting the beach, avoid swimming with your lucky ham or roast turkey carcass unless it's absolutely necessary as this can lead to unfortunate misunderstandings with tragic, but somewhat amusing consequences. In areas where hungry sharks are present, it is best to avoid swimming at dawn, early morning, midday, afternoon, late afternoon, evening, dusk and at night.

    While not all sharks are trustworthy, sharks as a species are an important part of the natural environment and play an important role in keeping the oceans healthy and neighborhoods crime free.
    Stop by your local Sharkitorium and get to know you local sharks, you'd be surprised what they can teach you and the stories they tell.

    Just remember to be Shark Smart!

     

    Alligators on the other hand... that's an entirely different story...


     

    Apparently, just walk right up to them and compliment their beautiful yellow eyes or whatever... ya' can't go wrong with Alligators!

    This ends our Pubic Service Announcement.

    Thank you for reading and have a Sharkriffic day!

    I made a ham and cheese sandwich but keto style.  Absolutely no carbs I think as it has no bread.  Or at least not as much carbs as if I used bread.

    For some reason, I'm not able to use bread fast enough before it goes bad.

    FYI, nurse sharks are almost as skilled at begging for food as a Labrador retriever. My husband and I volunteered at the Florida Aquarium years ago and feeding them was one of his tasks. He said they looked "pathetic" when he showed up with breakfast. LOL

  • Complaint: Caught COVID at work going down with symptoms on Wednesday. Completely out of action yesterday and today. May have given it to the rest of the family.

    Non-Complaint: This is the third or fourth time I've had it, so it's rather like a severe cold, much less bad than the first time I got it in 2022.

    Regards,

    Richard

    I wanted a. Book called What to expect when your MC is expecting.  MC as in main character.

    I found this book which is the closest thing I can find especially for free.

    I'm getting back into writing.  I'm writing an urban fantasy Christmas book that takes place Christmas season of 2004.  A newly wed vampire finds out she is expecting.  I haven't written much other than it is Black Friday in 2004.  they live in a town called Raleigh.  Wait? Is Raleigh a town or city?  She is about to go to Victoria's Secret and get her bra fitting.  I need a reason for that.

    Ouch!  So sorry you're so good at catching Covid.  An unenviable skill. sad  I get slightly sickish just by getting the shots for it.  I would hate to think of my state if I got a proper case of it.frown  So, just yesterday while at the doctors, I got both flu and Covid shots, per his suggestion.  One in each arm.  And of course I'm lame in both arms and flu-ish this morning, but will be better tomorrow and hopefully all season.  I wish you a speedy recovery also.

    Generally they're starving because they can't afford food after they make their student loan payments for Nursing school... Sharks get terribly high rates.

    Good luck with the recovery from the jabs. I'm too young to qualify for re-vaccination against COVID here, only being 60. If I could have another, I'd have it for certain. One day feeling grotty is much better than 3 or 4. Regards, Richard.

    I buried some basil seeds into damp dirt the other day.  Can't remember which day it was, but it was recent. Right now it looks like a bucket of dirt.  But I know it has basil seeds in it.

  • Non-complaint (per the puppers): Husband didn't realize I had fed Bear & Gilly supper (& didn't think to ask) so they got Second Supper.

    Complaint: Husband found a couple of frozen Korean beef entrees in freezer & cooked them. I only ate a couple bites because it was too spicy for me, and I think the peppers or some other seasoning actually burnt my mouth.

    Complaint: apparently not having a working computer capable of rendering inspires one with Art Ideas.

    I think at my mum´s home, Oscar and Misty would meow for food to my stepdad.  And that is after Mum already fed them for that time of day.

    I have found that freezing "enhances" the spiciness

    ...especially if you fail to label the bag, assuming you'll remember what's in it, and thaw/eat the vegetable soup only to discover that it's actually salsa. 

    For example.
