BK, I am so sorry that you whacked your head.  If you have a bag of frozen peas, you might hold them on the lump.  It might ease the swelling and the pain.

Well, I'm going to take the MAST test...just because.  I'm sure that it can't take as long as the class, so I'm going to go for it.  I found out that if I don't get the 80% or more on the first try, I can take it again.  Whew!  I'll find out how well I did as soon as I'm finished with it, which is a good thing.  So, I'll say good night, Tom and jan. 

Have a good day, all!

I was hammering in a nail while angry (big mistake) and hit the side of my finger with the hammer.  I split the tip of my finger for about half a inch.  I try very hard never to use a hammer again.

Well, that was easy!  The on-line class took a little over 3 hours and had six sections.  Each section had a 10-question quiz and on three of them, I got 100%, and on the other three, I got 90%!  And then on the actual final test which only took about 10 minutes, I got a 90%!  You just need to get 80%, so I'm now legal to pour drinks in the state of Washington!

Virginia won the NCAA tournament last night, but they are NOT the champions.

One of their players KNOWINGLY double dribbled in the semi final game and went on down the court to score two points.

He KNOWS he cheated and EVERYONE saw him....the fact that it wasn't called doesn't matter - everyone KNOWS Ty Jerome double dribbled.  Cheating....Fake Champion.

Final game should have been Texas Tech and Auburn.....

I haven't bumped my head on a kitchen cabinet in years, but I well remember doing it and what it feels like.

The cabinet doors in my kitchen here are too low, but if you were bent over doing something at the counter and stood up straight fast without checking, I suppose it could still happen on a door or on the cabinet itself. But I think at some point I simply decided it wasn't ever going to happen again, and so far, so good.

My first times doing this were in Franklin Park Apartments in Hollywood. I absolutely remember that. And it happened a few times elsewhere over the years.

Oh--I've done it with an open car door (my own car), if I'm standing outside of the car retrieving something from inside. Stand up too fast, and you get a surprise as to where the frame of the door was. So I guess I've transferred my hard knocking head mishaps in the kitchen to the car. Somehow I think the kitchen ones always hurt more.

Post by: ChasSmith on April 09, 2019, 05:36:46 AM
As to the TOD, slicing fingers on something in the kitchen is at the top of the list. Whether it's on some kind of cutting/slicing tool or on a broken glass in the sink, this is something not to be taken lightly. A couple of times I've considered myself lucky to have stopped the bleeding and healed without having to seek medical help. Be careful, everyone.

Next on the list is stubbing toes. Third would be whacking a knee or shin. These are navigational issues. It's simply amazing how distracted we can be sometimes in just walking from point A to point B in our own abodes.

The shins are usually knocked as I'm walking around my bed frame. It's a wooden platform bed.

The knees, I'm not sure, and that's less common than other stuff.

But the toes? Oh my god, the toes. How many times over the years? And there is nothing like that moment when you've just done it and sometimes you also hear a crack, and you wait that second or two for the pain to arrive, as your fury builds...

T.O.D.

About 3 weeks ago, I was helping my wife bring in the groceries, and I smashed the hatchback of her car down on the bridge of my nose. 

No break.  Lots of blood.  No stitches.

It's okay now, but there will probably always be a little mark  there.

I have had two mild concussions.  The second one was when I did a backwards somersault off of a twin bed, forgetting that we had just moved the other bed across the room.  I was 16 at the time.  When my father explained I had a concussion I immediately had an aha moment realizing that time I banged my head when I was ten also resulted in a concussion.

I came home from work early today because of my allergies. Took a fake Benedryl and only slept two hours. I'm staying in for the night.

Sorry.  Can you use Rhinocort?  It is sold over the counter these days though it does take some time before you feel the difference.  I fortunately am not bad enough to need it anymore, most times anyway.

Vegetarian though I eat fish when we are out if I can't get tofu.

There are so many vegetarian dishes.  I am not big on substituting vegetarian food.  Are you a big meat eater?

When our younger son, and at the time a strict vegan, was living with us I felt thinner and healthier when he cooked for me.  He did just that after my surgery to put a pin in my right broken wrist. 

I was lucky that pin came out.  The ugly horrible 8 pins holding the plate in place, in my elbow, are probably there for life.

My friend's son is vegan and cooks for himself as my friend loves filet mignon.  He even fixes his own meal at Thanksgiving.  I try to eat more veggies but sometimes I need a steak.  What veggies, etc., should try to include?

Craig made a delicious Thanksgiving meal of vegan fried chicken (?). I can't remember exactly was the meat version was supposed to be.  It was actually home made seitan which I normally dislike.  It was always a treat when he made anything with seitan.  I had every intention of making it once he moved out and never did.  Once of my passions used to be cooking & baking but no longer.

DR Jan what veggies do you like?

I often make a big chopped cabbage salad adding various ingredients.  We serve it for company and it seems to be a big hit.  I add chopped cauliflower and/or spinach, carrots, celery, beans, blueberries, tofu, corn, toasted slivered almonds, canned mandarin oranges, anything that strikes my mood.

Tonight Keith sauteed onions & shiitake mushrooms and added some corn.  Often he adds string beans or Brussels sprout, or snow peas.
