After I dropped her off at home, I went to my friend Margo's to help her and my friend Shelly with getting her dog to the vet for a checkup because the dog got a whole ankle replacement last week.  She is doing quite well.

Amazing.  I am glad her dog is doing well.

My mom's physical therapy session went well.  She took me out to Denny's afterward. :)


Great that your mom's session went well!

Then, Margo bought us all lunch from Wendy's as a thank you.

Nice.

I received an email today entitled "Everything You Wanted to Know About Sourdough, But Were Afraid to Ask."

In the ‘70s, beer can collecting was all the rage, and my brother had quite the collection. One time I was riding up our block on a toy horse on wheels, when a friend of my brother came up and told me my brother had wanted to give him a can, would I go get one? So I chose the one that looked the neatest, which was his rarest, a can from Hawaii. When my brother got home, I happily told him how I’d helped, only he went berserk. The kid had lied and scammed me. I was in trouble. My dad had to go visit the kid’s parents. High-level negotiations were had, by nightfall, the can was returned and I was off the hook. Scammers of the innocent have always been a fact of life.


When the scammer is your own brother and his wife, what do you do?

From personal experience, sister never my brother, you are screwed.


Was your situation about money?

My whole life though I didn't realize what was happening until I got older.  I also have great memories with her.  It was very sad.


:( Are you able to talk here about what kind of scam she pulled, or do you keep that information private?

What I will say is that because of her I have a better understanding of people like our president.

Afterward, I will stop by the shelter. Tonight should be the last night. At least for this round of cold.

I aspire to make bread at home, but if I'm honest with myself, I probably never will.

I spent a week creating sourdough starter and made the bread. It was great, but not worth the effort when it was close enough to a no-knead recipe I tried a few years ago. This one can be modified to your liking.

I doubt it. I never care for the comedians. I’m too old.
