After the ladder climbing, carton toting, and yesterday's roach attack, my body is racked with pain.  At 12:30 last night I took another Tizanidine and slept well.  I will spend a lot of the day with the cats watching Downton Abbey.  We're nearly to the end of Season Two, which is the bleakest Season, I'm guessing.  Last night, during Episode 6 or 7, I finally laughed, but those war years are tough going.

Evening vs morning, interesting.  I have been on my miracle drug Protonix too many years.
After my last break I knew I would have to wean myself off of them.  It ook about 6 months to completely cut the dosage in half and now I am down to skipping a dose every 5 days.

I know nothing about OMEPROZOLE, but heartburn is just one type of "tummy trouble." There are many things that can be wrong, completely apart from heartburn. Most people benefit from taking digestive enzymes with meals, as digestive capacity is one of the things that declines as we age. Heartburn, on the other hand, is usually from eating too many acid foods--meat, dairy, sugar--and not enough alkaline foods--veggies. My favorite way to deal with heartburn is to drink a glass of alkaline (bottled ) water. Most stores carry alkaline water these days. It must be alkaline water, though--not just any bottled water. Believe me, it stops the heartburn immediately with just a few ounces. It's inexpensive and easy to keep on hand. You can also drink it daily to avoid heartburn in the first place.

Do they even make ice cream of any kind?

I am not a big fan of coconut, probably because I couldn't eat it when I was young.  I like the idea of cashew milk for the ice cream.  Did you buy it at a store or just get a scoop someplace?

I didn't see anything on facebook.  When I see "active" I read that as happening at the moment they posted about the shooter.  It is a sad world when people fear a smash & grab robbery is a shooter.  I can tell you though, from personal experience, a big plate of glass breaking is a very scary sound.

Today I saw that BJs had the iPad 6th generation on sale and decided to gift myself

It was $100 less than the apple store price

I ordered cherry vanilla ice cream in a cup...he made pistachio in a cone

I asked for peanut butter cookie dough in a cup. He made a cup of mocha chip

I asked for a kids cone with one scoop of vanilla fudge , he took  a large waffle cone with fudge trim and filled it with vanilla

I recently tried a new type of vegan ice cream. Most of them are made from coconut milk, but this one is made from cashew milk. It was really good! If Choczero made vegan ice cream I'd buy it in a heartbeat. (Choczero has no sugar.) As it is, I'm skipping the cholesterol.

Do they even make ice cream of any kind?

I am not a big fan of coconut, probably because I couldn't eat it when I was young.  I like the idea of cashew milk for the ice cream.  Did you buy it at a store or just get a scoop someplace?

jane, Choczero doesn't make any ice cream that I know of.

I bought it at my favorite food store, which is a health food store, but I believe I've seen it at Whole Foods Market. It's So Delicious Double Chocolate Delight, chocolate dipped in chocolate. It's on a stick.

Vixmom, I'm pleased you're enjoying your air fryer. I was quite intrigued with the concept when they first came out. The reviews I read were excellent. As a vegetarian and disinclined to cook these days I have little need of one, but I do wish restaurants would start using them, as it's a healthier way to cook. I'm all for easier ways to prepare meals, even if I leave most of mine to the professionals.

Kitchens are dangerous places, after all. One should leave cooking to the experts!  ;)

In the fascinating department.  In the Kritzerland anniversary show, I gave Peyton a put-together of the Spanky and Our Gang song, Lazy Day (which I love) and Up, Up, and Away.  But then I found this song from the musical version of Georgy - it was actually cut from the show prior to opening - Toy Balloon - I really liked the tune and since it was a balloon song it fit better so I axed Lazy Day and put in Toy Balloon.  Just a minute ago what do I find out?  Lazy Day was composed by George Bischoff - who wrote - Toy Balloon.

This show was made before the last Japanese tsunami, but it did have plenty of footage of the Boxing Day tsunami in Sri Lanka and Thailand.  Over a quarter million people died in that one.

It ended with coverage of the one that they expect to happen sometime in the future.  It will start with the eruption of this volcano off the west coast of Africa.  They expect that might cause half of the mountain to collapse in a massive landslide, which if it happens, it would cause a tsunami that wil travel over the Atlantic Ocean at 600 mph and will hit the United States with enough force to kill three or four million people in cities like Miami, Washington DC, and New York.
