I like Maine very much. Where is Maine are you going, John G? I stayed in Portland.

Rockland. It's the town that we used to sail out of.

After I posted about Annabelle's condition, she started showing signs of her old self.  She's even beginning to remember who I am and that she loves me.

She's like the rest of us.

Tonight's viewing is a couple of episodes of Doctor Thorne. Not great and not Trollope, but entertaining.

And now, I must be off.  It's time to leave work and leave, I must.

Be back later.

My new fleece line waterproof, windproof pants arrived in the mail today.  I am going to test them and see if they keep me warm.  It is not really wet enough out there to truly test if they are rainproof.

Wear them in the shower

DR JRand, sorry to hear about your credit card news. I have my credit card set up so that it sends me an email every time the card is used. I find this super helpful. And it gives me comfort to know that I would know right away if someone else used it.

I get a text for my credit cards and debit card.  It rally is a great free service and makes me feel safer

The good news is that I can pick her up now. 

There are no polyps anywhere and that's a Big Relief.  Dr Mohr thinks the problem could be caused by infection in her broken fang - so dental work is the next project - or possibly an allergy.  We'll continue till we fnd the source.


WONDERFUL news!!!!!!

I am going to be spending a week in Maine at the end of April. Lobsters and books.

You could get snow in April.

Joy sucker!!

I decided instead of my usual 6 oz sirloin to splurge on the 14 oz bone in rib eye

Been relaxing.  I think the final PDF of the book is going to Doug tonight.  I got the six fixes and, of course, immediately found one other, which is now fixed.  There's a fun little photo gallery in the back of the book - total page count with that and the acknowledgements is 230.

Was your prime booth even better than your 54 Below seat?

DR George how did you do that off of facebook?

I right-clicked and downloaded it to my computer, then added that to my post in the Reply box under the "Attachments and other options" link.  It only works if the file size is 192kb or less (which that one was).

Whenever I try that the file is too large.  If I remember tomorrow I will see what happens when I do that.

Wear them in the shower

This is the Pacific Northwest, I will have plenty of opportunities to test them while walking in the rain.  If I get wet it will still be better than what I usually wear.
