Continued ride and radiation vibes for DR Elmore.

I'm a little surprised Annabelle isn't asking to be taken along on some of these trips.

It all goes too slowly for her. She hates waiting around. She says she's a cat of action.

Speaking of which (i.e., our various feline contingents), in going through these memory cards yesterday to see what was what, I came across many cat photos I'd forgotten about, that quite literally startled me in how young and/or in-their-prime healthy and fabulous our four legged friends looked at different times. It was almost more shocking than seeing photos of our very own humans from years ago. Though that can get rather shocking, too...  8)

HA! It's Thursday. 

Last night's Amazing Race was most entertaining.....they paused the show near the end - February, 2020 - and then wall-lah! came back in the next shot.  A couple of teams didn't return so I would guess they added the two teams that had been eliminated.\

I couldn't quite tell who was there, although I recognized most of the teams.  I'm sure it's online somewhere.

Steaks!

My best steak experience was also in a business dinner setting - in Miami Beach, Florida.  I don't remember the name of the restaurant - it wasn't a Ruth's Chris - but I had a sirloin with french fried potatoes and green beans.....

It was a nice size - not too big - and cooked medium well as I requested.

Still remembered 28 years later.

MR BK - I guess I feel the same way about the previews.....sometimes it was the posters that would disappoint because there was definitely stuff there that never showed up onscreen.

Oh, yes....barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will be joining my cousin Butch and his fiancee Sharon at Christine's on Sunday morning for BRUNCH!

The circumstance that might prevent this from happening is that my cousin Butch, who has been fully vaccinated and who had a bout with COVID-19 a year ago, has tested positive again.  It has not been serious, but he has been quarantining all week and thinks he'll be good to go by Saturday. 

Vibes he is negative before then.

My favorite steaks are generally those that are home grilled. A generous coating of McCormack’s Montreal Steak Seasoning on top, the grill. I like to heat all of the grill, but turn down the heat when applying the meat. Five minutes or so each side, then let rest a few minutes.

A friend did make a beef tenderloin poached in butter one Christmas that was excellent.

I am on my way to the bank to deposit a hefty check in the estate account.

And I have written a check to the monument company for doing the crypt front.

I’m very picky and primal about steak presentation at a restaurant. I do not want it cut into slices for me. I want to see a big hunk of meat that I can tear into with my own fat steak knife and fork. I want to see the medium rare juices run when I make that first cut. I want the smell, the heat and the taste to be just right.

Thursday afternoon greetings!  I've just been to the pharmacy drive-thru to pick up a 90-day supply of a brand name medication that's advertised heavily on TV.  That must be why it's so expensive.

TOD - Beef tenderloin, cut 3/4" thick, edge-wrapped in bacon, cooked at home, accompanied by a baked potato and green beans.  One of our favorite meals.

Home in one piece, which is surprising since the last driver was the worst of any Access-a-Ride driver I've encountered. Most have been wonderful.

Got the first of the four memory cards done.

It turned out that everything on this one had already been copied to computer, but I checked every group of photos anyway to be positive, reorganized a few things, then blanked out the card for later use. A backup is running right now while I take a break from it so I don't burn myself out and starting making mistakes.

Any card with photos that weren't already on the hard drive will NOT be blanked or formatted until everything is moved over, triple-checked, and the backup run and checked.

Could be.  I suppose there wasn't a generic option.  Is this something you need to get regularly?  If so, you might check canadadrugsdirect to see it they have a better price.

Oh, my goodness: 

My wife had long Covid and killed herself. We must help others who are suffering. :(

Our dermatologist, with a young child, has been home with long covid for at least 15 months.  I hope she isn't suffering this much :(

Spoke with a coworker who had omicron last week. Sad the sore throat was nearly unbearable. The problem here is that mold and cedar pollen levels are high, so people are already weak and suffering, then add a third and worse malady to the mix, and you’ve really got problems.
