And church at 7:30 am.

[John G.]

Three!

[elmore3003]

I captured Thatch after a rousing game of fishie on a pole lured him out of hiding.  I held him, petted him for a long time, which he seemed to like, then took him into the bathroom and cleaned the gunk from his eyes with a wet cotton ball.  I wish I had some baby saline eye wash.

Then I petted him some more, put the salve on his eyes, and rubbed them gently for a bit. Before I released him, I held him, petted him, rubbed his little belly, and let him go.  He ran for the food.  I think eating consoles him.

He's getting braver.  Last night, just before I turned off the lights, he climbed up on my computer table, where he's seen Annabelle holding court daily, sniffed about it before he jumped down.  This morning, both of them climbed onto my work table, played with my various pencils and erasers, and wrote some orchestration that I had to revise later, before they went on to the window to watch the birds and the snow.

DR JRand67, I saw this and thought of you!

I'm up, I'm up - maybe six hours of sleep - I woke up at five with an upset tummy, so just played on the computer for a couple of hours while it settled down.

DR JRand67, I saw this and thought of you!

That brings to mind seeing Elvis Presley in CLAMBAKE  (on a double feature with WITH SIX YOU GET EGGROLL)

[Laura]

Good afternoon.

[Laura]

I know what I am taking for the potluck dinner tonight! Fiesta Peach Spam Bake!

[Laura]

My produce box for this week had 16 yellow squashes. So I made a big cheesy casserole. That will go nicely with the spam.

[Ginny]

Our train ride with Santa was a lot of fun.  He and J (age 2 1/2) had a very serious conversation.  We even had our first significant snowfall to create just the right atmosphere.

[Jrand73]

Thanks DR FJL.  I have been doing some preliminary 2018 work on the website and moving forward as if I'm going to be around....if not forever.....at least for another year!  HAA!

[Jrand73]

I am feeling a bit upsetty myself.....although it has nothing to do with the delicious morsel DR ELMORE published....it also didn't help much...

I am sure I will feel much better in the morning.

[Jrand73]

DR LAURA let us know how the SPAM goes over at the do!

[Jrand73]

DR GINNY I am glad you had a good time - but being trapped on a train with children and Santa Claus is my idea of a NIGHTMARE!

[FJL]

Remember the Alamo?  Max will make sure you never forget it!  In this new musical comedy-adventure, a young, idealistic Mexican General seeks respect for himself and Mexico by marching his soldiers into Texas in an against-all-odds quest to reclaim the Alamo.  The show is based on Jim Lehrer's rollicking satiric novel set 50 years ago, but the story remains current and passionate on 21st-century matters like immigration, gun control, and respect for foreign people and their cultures.

Hello, everyone.

[Jeanne]

I went to acupuncture today, then came home and did some laundry. Exciting, I know.

[Jeanne]

The skies here are much clearer today, but the air is still extremely dry. I haven't seen an update on the fires today, but we really NEED more humidity.

[Jeanne]

Best of luck with VIVA MAX!, Fred.

[Jeanne]

Thanks DR FJL.  I have been doing some preliminary 2018 work on the website and moving forward as if I'm going to be around....if not forever.....at least for another year!  HAA!

I think that's a good way to think about it. We never really know, anyway.

[Jeanne]

Well, I think the epidural was really beneficial.  Yesterday, I wasn't sure.  I was in a great deal of pain where the injections occurred, and I was really tired.  I slept last night with no leg pains at all, and I feel my walking is going better today as well.  I hope this optimism continues.

Vibes the progress continues.

[Jeanne]

This morning I went and picked out a painting. I’d commissioned one a few years back from a friend I had worked with st the Census Bureau. She was down on her luck and I thought she had forgotten about it. Nope. She emailed a few weeks back and I went to pick it out today. It’s like a Dr. Seuss version of San Antonio’s River Walk. It’s huge, too. Three feet by four feet.

Can you post a photo of it?

[Jeanne]

I am feeling a bit upsetty myself.....although it has nothing to do with the delicious morsel DR ELMORE published....it also didn't help much...

I am sure I will feel much better in the morning.

I hope you do. The stomach bug that's going around is nasty.

[Jeanne]

TTFN.

[Ginny]

DR GINNY I am glad you had a good time - but being trapped on a train with children and Santa Claus is my idea of a NIGHTMARE!

LOL, DR JRand!  Under normal circumstances it would be mine, too.  Today our party of 8 was all adults except J and we were at the end of our car, kind of away from other groups with more kids.  We hadn’t done this train ride since Rob was a Tiger Cub.  It’s a fun thing to do every 25 years or so...

[Jrand73]

That sounds about right DR GINNY.

That sounds like FUN DR FJL.....if I win this Powerball tonight, I might be able to come.

Greetings DR JEANNE!

[Jrand73]

Yes I think I would like see a photo of said painting, too, DR JOHN G
