I love Quilty's video!  He could be Annabelle's twin.

He looks like a sweetheart.  We had a cat that opened doors, the round knobs, and cupboards .

I am at the airport but they won’t let me check my bag for another 11minutes. I’m not happy.

Odd, how early are you?

Brian came over today to help me with the cleaning. Given his long drive, I thought he'd need more hours than usual to make it worthwhile. But he wanted to leave at 3 pm to try to beat the traffic, so he was only here a couple hours. I appreciate the help. He can really scrub and I can't. I would have liked him to give my kitchen counters the Brian Treatment, but there was only time to do the kitchen sink, plus vac, dust, and clean the tub/shower. I need to reduce the clutter so it's easier to clean.

So sorry to hear about Vixmom's fall. That's some political dedication.

I hope you're not at work today, but suspect that you are. Vibes that you're feeling better soon!

DR Jeanne, I'm happy that your water was delivered but dismayed about where it was left.  When our elevator was out, I was grateful that Val was willing to carry 40 lbs of kitty litter up three flights for me.

Packages are frequently left at the base of the stairs. Usually that's fine, but when it's the water I open the box, then carry two bottles at a time up the stairs, necessitating 6 trips.

Our mail delivery isn't very good to start with. I no longer put out outgoing mail because they don't pick it up. I've talked with the supervisor repeatedly, and she seems to want things done right, but the carriers seem to do as they like. This incident was a new low. Not only is it completely disrespectful to people with disabilities, it's disrespectful to the average able-bodied person who can't lift heavy packages.

It is a shame he couldn't have arrived earlier, yet great he worked for two hours.  Reducing clutter does help, hard to do though when your place is small.

That's exactly the problem: I need more space. But I also need to get rid of more. I piles up so quickly!

DR vixmom, I'm so sorry to read about your fall.  Were you jealous that DR Ginny had one earlier this year?  You must stop these blatant appeals for attention.  You will hurt yourself! ;D

Well I don’t see why Ginny and Jane and Jeanne should have all the fun!

I would gladly share some of my "fun" with you. Which would you like?

Well, folks, in about two hours my stitches (wait, does anybody remember my stitches? but of course you do!) will have been relegated to the dustbin of history.

DR Ginny:  I forgot to report back on this, but I checked with them last week on the number of days involved, and they said one week was this doctor’s standard. I pointed out that this puts me one day over that, and they assured me it was okay. Anyhoo, the work looked really good to a friend who’s familiar with these things. So we shall see!

glad to hear you're progressing nicely. I think I was the one who asked about recovery time--I was certainly thinking it. I find that hearing from others who go through these things gives me a better idea of what to expect should it happen to me, and thus reduces the fear and anxiety.

I watched DEATH IN PARADISE last night. I knew the character Dwayne would be leaving and that's a shame, as I liked him. Otherwise, I still enjoy it.

My question for ASK BK DAY:

When are you getting your parakeet?

The twelfth - of never.  I think I would not be able to take care of it properly.

Back from a totally stupid waste of my time meeting, and then a good, productive lunch meeting.  I'll save the details of the first meeting for the notes.

I am glad you still liked it.  We would consider giving it a try with the new lead.  We didn't care for the last one.

Last night we finished watching season 2 of "Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan".  We watched two episodes a night and was surprised how quickly we were done watching.  I hope there will be a third season.

I have had dinner and am slowly working my way through Zola’s The Paradise. I have about 130 pages left.

Is 51000 a millstone?  If so, you're very close to a millstone.

Wednesday afternoon greetings!  I had set today aside to make a 3rd batch of caramel corn, but decided yesterday that I had enough for the Holiday Bazaar.  Plan B was to spend today doing computer work for AAUW and DAR, but I decided to do the updates on my computer first.  That has taken until now to complete - hope it's worth it!

Well you may have enough for the Holiday Bazaar but do you have enough to mail to all of us?

Back!

With (I already forget the name) some kind of little flesh colored strips the nurse put on the scar to protect and nurture it for the next few days. You can shower in them and they'll eventually fall off or begin peeling off, then you're done. I asked her what the "count" was and she said it was mostly one long thread but counting the visible loops, it's thirteen. She said the scar will be there for a while but in six months it should be mostly or completely undetectable.

I am glad it went so well!did the lab results come back clear?
