Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of a miraculous miracle and hopefully being on the mend, and now it is time for you to post until the miraculous cows come home.

BK's oatmeal comment in the notes made me realize I need some DR assistance:

I just ordered 48 packs of Quaker Instant Oatmeal (Apple Cinnamon), but I cannot read the instructions on the back of the packages; my eyes are no longer that sharp. What do they tell me to do? I'm sure it's as simple as "put oatmeal in bowl; add 1cup boiling water' let sit," but I need to know it all!

I have one more chapter of A&T to go through and I can send the manuscript back to the publisher.

This is laundry day. Thanks to my bouts of bad - I think rude might be a better adjective - health this week, the small bundle is now enormous.

Saturday morning greetings! Waiting for the rest of the household to wake up…

Good morning, all.

The cat and I are up.

The cat is fed.

I am partially fed and coffee'd, and must needs get more fed and coffee'd. I needs me some energy!

DR Elmore, I'm finding this online. Do you use the microwave?

How to cook Quaker Oatmeal packets

Microwave
Empty packet into microwave-safe bowl.
Add up to 3/4 cup unheated milk or water; stir. For your convenience, you can use the packet as a measuring cup.
Microwave on HIGH for 60 to 75 seconds.
Stir and let stand for 2 minutes.

Does that sound right according to what you've done in the past?

I have to run to the bank and at least one store before noon, and I've got a lot to get done here at home all morning and afternoon, and I have to go to my friend's annual Christmas Eve Eve par-tay this evening.

If no microwave, boil a cup of water, pour over oatmeal in bowl till it’s the consistency you like, wait a few minutes, eat. (Add raisins.)

Rodzinski · « **Reply #16 on:** December 23, 2023, 05:44:44 AM »

Ginny, great house, great price! I predict a swift sale, except for the time of year we are in.

We had the EXACT same linoleum in our kitchen when we moved in here.

I wonder what the little 3-foot-tall door leads to.

I’d kill for that basement too.

It’s still page 1 I forgot to say…

Notes gawked. Stalked.

Did BK ever see Jane’s vintage photo?

Bruce: Great news that you are feeling better. At "our" age, it is best not to let these conditions linger without attention, however. I do encourage you to see your doctor and tell him or her everything that you have been feeling.

TOD:

Sad to say, I LOVE Krispy Kreme glazed donuts.

I love apple fritters if they are fresh.

I love a croissant with chocolate inside (my Oakland patisserie called them "chocolatines").

I loved the patisserie's "morning buns"....the same kind of dough as was used for croissants but put into baking tins with loads of sugar and cinnamon. Yum.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #22 on:** December 23, 2023, 06:17:20 AM »

Of course, I do love blueberry muffins.

It is about a quarter past nine a.m., EST, and no one is here but me and ZERO guests.

Is everyone else napping still?

Are folks out and about doing last-minute whatever because tomorrow is Christmas Eve and the day after is the big holiday?

Is there something on TV that is drawing attention?

Inquiring mind, etc., etc., and so forth.

As Margo Channing said to Miss Harrington: "It's Christmas Eve Eve, Eve!"

I slept very well. I know I dreamed, but whatever I dreamed has evaporated.

I detected a small crick in the lower left of my back when I rolled over into a favorite position

I harkened to that small crick...not a sharp pain, no, but a sore spot.

I then remembered that I had been moving some heavy things around in my laundry room, and probably used some back muscles that have been unused for a while.

Good morning,all.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #27 on:** December 23, 2023, 06:24:31 AM »

I suspect that if DR springpaw were here right now, a countdown would be moving us along to page 2.

I think I can get us there with small talk and irrelevant chatter.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #28 on:** December 23, 2023, 06:24:53 AM »

OR, i could strive for relevance and say good morning to DR John G.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #29 on:** December 23, 2023, 06:25:02 AM »

Good morning, John G.
