Four!

See y'all later.

Thanks for the explanation about the My Fair Lady recordings, DR elmore3003!

[Rodzinski]

Didn’t get to yesterday’s TOD because Mrs R was having a health scare of her own. Soreness in her jaw and arm, we drove down to an urgent care in Bellingham. They gave her an ekg which was fine, but upon talking to her more and learning she’d been traveling recently, that doc sent her to the ER across the street for tests. So the kids and I had to find things to do. First we closed down the Michael’s crafts, then the Fred Meyer, then Wal-Mart was going to close at 11, but luckily it was a slow night at the ER and all tests were good and we picked her up and made it home before midnight.

[Rodzinski]

The odd thing it was a mirror of my TOD answer which is that in 2020, I unknowingly had developed such acute acid reflux, my body was interpreting that as a heart issue, I was getting lightheaded and unable to sleep. Ended up in an ambulance in to a Delaware hospital where they basically couldn’t find anything wrong. To this day I don’t know how much was in my head, but the chest issues did subside with a course of omezeperale.

[Rodzinski]

Docs thought Mrs R’s symptoms could be heartburn related as well.

[Freddie]

Health vibes to Mrs R.  Did they offer treatment for the soreness in her jaw and arm?

[Rodzinski]

Thanks Fred, and thanks for sharing yesterday. No, just OTC pain relief.

[Jane]

DR Laura, vibes your doctor's office and your insurance company come to an agreement.  We have received letters like that and fortunately agreements were made.

[Jane]

From George:

I'm looking at some on Amazon so that I don't have to change my plan.

Why would you have to change your plan?  You might find a better deal through your phone carrier.

[bk]

I'm not up, I'm not up - well, just for now - gonna try for another hour or so.

[bk]

Freddie wants to know about my shorts

[Jane]

I am going to lead the children in making cookie dough, which we will form into balls and freeze. So we'll have an emergency stash of cookies if needed.

Have fun.

[Jane]

I have to report to Vacation Bible School today. I'm so glad the younger women have taken it over and I don't have to do it any more.

I am happy for you.

[bk]

I only know that the shorts we put out have gotten almost no views. I thought we'd go viral. Then again, I don't know what I'm doing so maybe I didn't do something you're supposed to to get more views. I don't like content creator or digital creator - content Jew or digital Jew is okay by me.

I'm glad all the test were ok and hope she is feeling better today.

You were lucky one course solved your issues.

Back from:  the auto parts store for replacement rear hatch struts, Costco for cat litter and water softener salts, and Shop Rite for Coke products* and coffee K-cups.

Note:  Gas had jumped up to $2.99 and then $3.01 a week or so ago, and it's back to $2.97 today. I won't need any myself for a few more days, but I wanted to keep my loyal readership informed.


*The rotating sales of the Coca-Cola family of products and the Green Mountain family of coffee products are in my favor this week, so time to stock up. The Coke stuff is 4 six-packs of the 16.9-oz bottles for $10, which is as good as those get. That's 42 cents per Coke (not including bottle deposit etc.). I neglected to check the 12-packs of cans because I was just out for bottles today, but I'll do so when I'm back there. I know those used to be absolutely dirt cheap.

Back from the mail place and picking up a package from Heritage Auctions. About eight years ago I consigned a few items. A few weeks ago I got an email from a nice lady there, saying they'd been going through stuff that's been sitting there for a long time, two items of which were from me that somehow never got listed and I forgot about them. Today's package was a book, a very rare first edition in very nice jacket of Badge of Evil, which was the source material for Touch of Evil. It's impossible to find this book. There is one horrible copy on ABE for 1500 bucks. Today, I think this would go for four or five K - not to a dealer, but to a collector, so I'm thinking about trying another auction house.

[bk]

That said, I may offer it to a dealer just to see what the offer might be.

Am at Costco now. Gas was $2.38 a gallon.

The other item is a one-sheet poster for Von Sternberg's Morocco. Well, not exactly - if I HAD that one-sheet it would go for over 100K. I commissioned Igor Edelman to paint it - he was the premiere poster restorer, and he duplicated the one-sheet brilliantly. That should be here in another couple of weeks - it's in a frame so it's more packaging to deal with.

[John G.]

TOD:

On Facebook, I keep seeing posts of Cole’s in LA closing after more than 100 years. Do you know it, BK? Or like it?

I love the neon sign in the photos.

[John G.]

Time to move on.

[bk]

I did not stop at CVS - I have one more serving of Ny-Quil and I'd like to try starting the Flonase tonight. If it's not working I'll go get Claritin-D tomorrow and Ny-Quil if I need it.
