Vicky BoydSteve Broscious of BASF shows off the root mass differences between an untreated pepper plant (left) and one where a foliar treatment of Merivon was applied.DINUBA, Calif. — BASF Crop Protection. has taken a more holistic approach when it comes to marketing fungicides.
Rather than talking just about disease control, the Research Triangle Park, N.C.-based company promotes the overall health benefits the fungicides provide plants.
The philosophical change was apparent at a June 25 field day in Dinuba, Calif., where company representatives talked about Merivon and Priaxor, two new fungicides
"Even small changes in the plant's physiology can make big differences in the overall yield," says Jennifer Holland, a technical market specialist.
If human workers are in good health, they typically are happier and more productive.
The same holds true for crops.
Without disease stressors, stomata on the plant leaves tend to remain open longer, resulting in increased photosynthesis, Holland says.
More photosynthesis leads to more energy production—energy that can boost yields and enhance crop quality, she says.
"Photosynthesis counts when you're talking about yield and talking about quality," Holland says.
At the Dinuba field station, researchers are able to stretch the limits and create worst-case scenarios that really put products in development to the test, says Kate Walker, a technical services representative for the California Central Coast, Southern California and Arizona.
Each year, they conduct 450-500 trials, says Curtis Rainbolt, station director.
Both Merivon and its sister product, Priaxor, are premixes of BASF's earlier fungicide, F500, a strobilurin also known as pyraclostrobin, and Xemium.
Pyraclostrobin is the sole active ingredient in Cabrio and is a member of the Fungicide Resistance Action Committee's Group 11, which contains QoIs.
It also is part of the premix Pristine. The other ingredient is boscalid, a FRAC Group 7.
Xemium, or fluxapyroxad, is a newer carboximide fungicide in the same FRAC group as boscalid.
Merivon contains a 1:1 ratio of F500 to Xemium and will be registered for pome fruit, stone fruit, strawberries and tree nuts. BASF representatives say they expect federal registration the third quarter of this year. California and New York registration will lag behind.
Priaxor contains a 2:1 ratio and is already federally registered for potatoes and tomatoes. It targets early blight, black mold, Septoria leaf spot, target spot and anthracnose.
An expanded label that includes other fruiting vegetables also is expected the third quarter of this year.

New single "Don't Let Me Go (2011 Version)! Music available by Lareau:
For more information about Lareau visit: To pay for merchandise by check or for further information Click Here If you have any questions or you wish to license any Lareau song(s) for use in broadcast media you may contact: or by mail to: Warrior Records about Lareau Lareau, the band that has gained International attention due to their honest cool-mountain-stream aesthetic has their radio release "Don't Let Me Go" currently impacting nationally. Lareau's "Changes" debut on (Warrior/UMGD) charted #25 in Billboard Hot AC, with their follow up, "Change My World" clocking in at #28. Chuck Taylor, reviewing for Billboard, wrote of the albums "organic play-off of electric and acoustic guitars, bongos and buoyant sing-along hooks," referring to lead singer Larry Lareau as a frontman "definitely stamped with nostalgic influences. It's a pleasure to see hard-working talent rise to the surface." The band completed the recording of "Don't Let Me Go" with producers Darrin Payne and Anthony Brown at AllSound Recording and Graphite Studios in Warren, PA, with Andrew Mendelson of Georgetown Masters in Nashville doing the Mastering. "Don't Let Me Go"" marks Lareau's third straight Top 30 AC track in Billboard. Lareau-founding member and lead vocalist Larry Lareau, drummer/multi-instrumentalist Darrin Payne, guitarist Pete Gool, bassist Roger Christopherson and keyboardist Anthony Brown-is the five-piece band from Western New York and Pennsylvania whose music is a refreshing and uplifting acoustic/electric trip that has record buyers swooning to its intricate musical interplay. What Shoppers Have To Say About LAREAU's "Changes": Reviewer - Terrance Clinton: Yeah, Baby! That's the way poppa likes it. Go baby, GO! Just got my copy of "CHANGES" by Lareau and boy did they make a whopper of a mistake on this one. They should have called it "CHARGES" because it's full of high-voltage energy. As I see it, there are two reasons to get this one, Larry Lareau's lyrics and Darren Payne's drums. The guy's got classical music training AND perfect rhythm, which is crucial during the critical times of my day. Golly-wolly he's good. I like to crank up the music and watch CNN with the sound turned off. No kidding. Reviewer - Tango Bravo: As the Blues Travelers once said "the hook brings you back". This album is constantly in my CD player. Excellent arrangements with thought provoking lyrics and excellent sound. Something about Larry Lareau's voice makes you NEED to sing along. This band is a hidden gem. I'm just waiting for arena's full of people to shout "I should not be drinkin!!". The first song gets its hooks into you right away, making you want to hear every song on the CD. If you love contemporary rock or EMO, this album MUST be part of your collection. Reviewer - George Fletcher: Creative, well written songs. I find myself humming some of these very accessible melodies and have to think hard where I heard them. I highly recommend it! * * * Return To Warrior Records Catalog

Two-Hole Twin Beads are a new two holed connector seed bead. Made by Preciosa, a leader in Czech glass seed beads. Let your creativity flow with all the different ways these can be used!
Each individual bead is 2.5x5mm in size.
You will receive a 1" rectangular tube of beads. Each tube holds approximately 8grams of beads. There are approximately 20 beads/grams therefore, a tube would contain approximately 160 beads. If you order 15+ tubes this will be a special order which may take additional time to ship, and you will receive the beads in a sealed bag, instead of tubes.
*If you are looking for a bead by its number you can search in the search window in the upper left hand corner of the home page. Just enter the bead size and number, ex: 11-334 and that will get you any bead with those numbers in its name or id code. Then choose the one that matches your need.

'Crazy lights' illuminate Flossmoor
BY STEVE METSCH email@example.com December 24, 2012 2:52PM
Tyler Thompson, of Flossmoor, started a unique holiday lights decoration style in 1999 that has been adopted by other neighbors on Dartmouth Street. He is pictured Friday, December 14, 2012. | Brett Roseman~Sun-Times Media
Updated: January 26, 2013 6:03AM
Illuminated Santa Claus figures, twinkling lights on bushes, and inflatable penguins and snowmen may be the norm among Christmas decorations, but for those who want to see something completely different, steer on over to Flossmoor.
There, on Dartmouth Road south of Flossmoor Road, and on several neighboring streets, one can see a breathtaking Christmas display that has spread like wildfire.
Instead of lights being wrapped around trees or spread over bushes, single strands of Christmas lights stretch high into the sky, where they shoot over towering tree branches before returning to earth.
Tyler Thompson got the idea when reading about a similar display, and he started doing it outside his home about 1999.
Neighbors were skeptical at first, but they grew to like it. Now, most of them join in, creating quite the spectacle.
"An architect started it in Kansas, and I read the article in 'Southern Living' magazine," Thompson said. "My parents live there and took us out to see it.
"I was the first one to do it here. It got mixed reactions, to say the least. But the next year a couple more people did it, then a couple more, then some on Hutchinson Road did it, and then it started spreading from there. I saw some in Hazel Crest the other day."
What does one call the display?
"Everyone has their own opinion," said Thompson, 45. "Some call it 'crazy lights.' The last one my wife (Sandy) heard was 'Santa catcher,' and I thought that was awesome. I've heard 'spider webs.' "
He said 2,400 to 2,700 lights are enough for a big yard.
"Some do 600. Every house is different," he said. "The last few years it's been great for our street. There's a core group of guys who work on it together. It's a great excuse to get together with the neighbors."
Dave Mayer, Andy Weeks, Tom Wick and Steve Boyles are the friends Thompson gets together with for decorating.
It takes a strong arm to get lights so high into a tree.
"You take a baseball with a string and you throw the baseball over the tree, and tie the lights to the other side of the line, and pull it up," Thompson said. "In the spring, you cut the string and the lights come down."
He's glad this year was warm.
"It's hard when it's 5 degrees and you're tying that string," he said.
Dave and Rose Mayer live a few doors south of Thompson.
"Tyler started it and it kind of caught on. I like the look," Rose said.
Most use white lights. But red and green lights started to crop up in recent years.
A recent visitor wondered if the lights are intended to resemble beams of light from the Star of Bethlehem.
"I like that one," Thompson said.
Sandy Thompson summed them up with two words: "Very distinctive."

Internet Ministry
The Department of Internet Ministry serves the online communications needs of the Antiochian Archdiocese. The Department's team works to share the wisdom and expertise that exists across the workers and ministries of our Archdiocese, by sharing their stories and vital resources with the more than 60,000 monthly visitors to www.Antiochian.org.
Our work at the Department falls in to several different categories: administrative, technical, design, and editorial. Ongoing work includes the development of website content, features and functionality in support of the Archdiocese headquarters, as well as our dioceses, departments and organizations. Original content is also continually being developed and special projects completed.
The staff of the Department includes Director Douglas Cramer, Editors Ginny Nieuwsma and Andrew Frishman, and Technical Consultant Michael Brooks. Critical guidance and insight is provided on an ongoing basis by His Grace Bishop Nicholas, hierarchical overseer for the Department.
Great Lent Resources and Readings Offered
As the faithful prepare to celebrate the high point of the Church year—Great Lent, Holy Week and Pascha—the Archdiocese highlights our section of resources and reading for the season. Great Lent Resources & Readings is a topical library of links and reflections that presents the meaning and practice of the forty days of prayer and worship of Lent, for both newcomers to the Orthodox Christian Faith as well as for those who are rediscovering the spiritual benefits of the Lenten journey.
Visitors to Great Lent Resources & Readings will find three subsections:
- All Revered Days: the Lenten Calendar is a library of information broken into the weeks of Lent from the Pre-Lenten Sundays through Holy Week,
- Bright Sadness: Entering into the Lenten Spring contains counsel about making the most of the forty days, and
- Holy Week: Journey to the Empty Tomb offers an overview of Holy Week as well as reflections on some of its specific days, such as Holy Friday.
We are grateful to all the various sources who have allowed us to repurpose their material, and we encourage those maintaining Orthodox websites of their own to link to this section.

In New Orleans, we take snoballs very seriously. The season extends even longer than actual summer (though it admittedly gets hotter long before official summer too), and it's a joyous return when it does, despite the heat that may come with it. Snoballs are the perfect sweet treat on a hot day, whether you like them fruity, creamy, with ice cream in the middle or drenched in condensed milk.
While you can find plenty of snoball stands in New Orleans, a few of them really get it right. Here are three of the best snoball stands in the city.
Hansen's Sno-Bliz (Uptown – 4801 Tchoupitoulas St)
Guaranteed, you will wait in some sort of line for a Hansen's snoball, but it will always be worth it. This Uptown gem makes all of its own flavors using Mary Hansen's original and secret recipes from back when she opened the joint with her husband Ernest in 1939. They even use the original machine they had back in the day. They make the snoballs in layers so that the snoball is packed with flavor all the way down to the very bottom.
Pandora's (Mid-City – 901 N Carrolton Ave)
You can bet that especially on a hot day, this snoball corner store always has a line as well. It's tucked into the middle of Mid-City just blocks away from City Park and the New Orleans Museum of Art and sits right on the Canal St streetcar line for easy access. This stand is also known for getting heavy-handed on the syrup, so if you like your snoball particularly sweet, Pandora's will hit it right out of the park—City Park, that is.

Nothing much doing here today. Dentists appointments this morning, ?? this afternoon, meeting about closing or cutting the hours at our post office this evening and DH has an ambulance board meeting after that. So no big projects on the list for today. Just the laundry and whatever else that I find to get into.
Sorry you didn't find the pants you wanted, Alabama. 6% taxes here but not on clothing or food (unless it is prepared).
Hugs Molasses. I am taking it that your aunt was wound up yesterday since you didn't make it here. I can understand how it is wearing you down. Hope this week goes better than the last one.
Pretty picture, YAH. I hope you get to see it some day.
It sounds like we are both waiting for people to come to do work, Barb. I hope you get your projects done before winter. Haven't heard from the tree trimmer in maybe a month and the contractor that was here in the spring hasn't come back to put up the spouting. The day he left I asked him if he'd be interested in doing some other work but haven't heard a thing from him on prices and such. I am thinking DH and I will end up replacing the spouting ourselves once the Hosta plants die back for the winter. The windows in the back porch have been there for 75 years, they'll wait until we find someone to replace them. Sorry that your friends are busy with other things. But it sounds like you enjoyed the garage concert. You have such a wide variety of friends there. How did you come to know people from so many walks of life?
Sue, sorry you and Chuck are at it again. Maybe the hot weather is making you both edgy.
Well Molly is barking so better go take her out and put Lucy to work.
Have a great day all.
Just stopping in to say Good Morning , Good Morning how are you this morning ? That keeps running though my Mind. I think there is a commercial now and it is Debbie Reynolds and Donald O'Connor from when they sang it in Singing in The Rain
Not much here today . Slept in again so a late start here. Need to get my workout finished so will be back later. .
Good morning, WOWsters,
Yup, DA was wound up yesterday. She was up when I got up (and had her bed made, which she hasn't done in a few years!), and was wide awake and talking away all day. I had to trick her into going to bed last night because she was determined to go "home" to sleep. I got her to lie down so I could put her eye drops in, and then told her I needed her to lie still with her eyes closed so I could check her pulse. Eventually she settled down enough to go to sleep and she stayed in bed all night. At least I wasn't annoyed with her yesterday; I worked through all that the other day after I realized how much complaining I was doing. She can't help her behavior, but I can fix my attitude about it. I'm guessing she'll be pretty tired today so I should be able to get something done besides chat about long-gone relatives.
I woke up at 1:18 a.m. and wasn't able to sleep again. I tossed and turned till almost 5:30 before getting up. At least I don't have a headache though.
Speaking of complaining, I was so dismayed the other day. We had hired SIL to paint the stable awhile ago, and I had gotten a 5 gal. bucket of paint from Home Depot for him to use. Now he's going to do another outbuilding, so I was looking at the bucket to make sure I'd gotten the kind with the primer added since the shed is scraped to the bare wood in a lot of places. I saw they gave me INTERIOR paint. It never even occurred to me to check that they gave me what I asked for--the color was right, and the print is small enough that I needed to get my head right down there to read it. So DH had to go get a bucket of exterior yesterday. After a little bit of discussion with the manager, he was able to return the interior for store credit, so that lessens the sting somewhat, but we'll still need to re-paint the stable now with exterior paint. You can bet I'll never pay for another bucket of paint without double-checking that it's what I asked for.
I think my washer is done so I'm off to hang my sheets. Wishing everyone a wonderful week~
Sorry about the lack of sleep, Molasses. Wise woman to amend how you deal with your aunt's recent behavior. Much better for your mental health. Glad no headache this morning. Hope you get a chance to relax and get some rest today. I was going to say maybe you and your aunt could take a nap this afternoon but I guess the goal is to keep her awake during the day so she sleeps at night. Sorry about the wrong paint. Will you need to try and remove it before you can repaint? Glad you got a store credit. I wouldn't have thought to ask. I'd have taken the blame for not double checking it when I bought it. Being assertive isn't one of my strong points.
Hi ladies,
Looks like we have another nice week ahead of us, although we could use a little rain. I'll have to water the gardens again this week.
Nothing exciting planned for today. I put off paying bills (my very least favorite job) over the weekend so I have to do it today. Depressing! I always have too much month left over.
DH went out to take some early morning photos this morning and the dogs got up with him and decided to be watchdogs until I got up. So much for sleeping in. My sympathies, Molasses, on the lack of sleep. I woke up at 3:00 and never got back to sleep. I am so sick of not being able to sleep without help. This getting old stuff is for the birds!
August seems to be a big vacation month up here, so that's why things are slowing down for us. Most people have friends and family coming up to visit. Since I don't have any family left and DH's siblings live a different lifestyle than we do, we're not on their travel route. We didn't spend much time with them when we lived nearby either. Family dinners are not really DH's idea of a fun day. They tend to be like the movie Groundhog Day. Tradition is nice but sometimes you need a little something different.
With our other friends who are building their house this summer, they are very close to my GF and her husband. So not as much one on one time as we enjoyed last winter. I knew this would be the case, but some days it's harder to adjust. Plus the kayaking friends are out as often as they can on the weekends and serious hiking will start up soon. I don't have a yak (yet) and have a long way to go to be able to hike with them. It's just not fair to expect anyone to slow down and most trails are longer than I can handle right now. Sorry, enough of my whining.
I'd better get busy and get those unpleasant tasks done. I'd like to see if I can find some blueberries before they're all gone. Not sure where to look since blueberry patches are just about as secret as good fishing lakes around here.
Hope you all have a great week!
Morning ladies. Today is grocery shopping day. So that will be a busy day for me. I will take Charger to the park in a few minutes. I hope some of his buddies are there. Man oh Man did he have fun at the track this weekend. He LOVED being able to roam around without a leash on, and he really enjoyed his swim. I also got some sunrise pictures yesterday that I need to pull off my camera today.
Just wanted to pop in and say HI, and Happy Monday. I better put dinner in the crock pot and get my list and menu done.
Good Morning! So glad no call in and I do work tomorrow and am hoping not so much humidity but its in 90's today. I doubt if the new fan came in yet.Thats not the temp. though! I'd be melting if it was
Di, thanks for opening and it sounds like up here with the work people. Guess we have so few months to do outside stuff that people have a hard time finding people for their projects anymore unless you get the Real professionals that cost to much. Wish my DB had a day down here as he's so good at pruning and all and maybe putting an electric plug in here and there to! Dh can do it but...never seems to. I'm sure my DB has SO many things to do now and he does lots of stuff on farm house also plus always getting a load of wood for winter. Last winter was SO long, ran out! I just ordered #2 oil as I'm hoping prices were down a bit since the gas has been but I should have asked how much. Well it will be filled up and I don't use it at all now.
Have a good dentist and meetings day Di!
Bama, nice to see you to and I slept later of course since I know tomorrow will be early and I'm not an early bird out here anyway. 6% tax on all in MI. Tomorrow is voting day but I never did call to find out voter poll meeting so will not get to work anyway in this one. Will try for the Nov. one maybe. Enjoy your day!
Mo, I just wish when my mom would talk, I'd have recorded her stories or wrote them down She didn't talk much at the end since I think she was in lots of pain but never said anything about it, just sat with eyes closed and slept a bit maybe. I just wish I would have got more stories and information about the family before I see these DD's at work who record and come to visit their aunt with their mom and I think they are getting all kinds of stories as the aunt remembers so good yet. Hope this week turns out better also for you and I'm sure you love to be outside doing stuff more also. Does your DA sit out at all? Sorry about the paint! I guess its best to always check as I know I don't always either. Enjoy your day!
Barb, As I don't get to walk to much either, just sitting by the lake is the peaceful thing to do. Hope you get to do that. Its far away for me I do like to walk on trails though, slowly and checking out the scenery etc. so my feet don't hurt as they would if I was Really walking for health I guess. So enjoy the summer and I guess I enjoy my own company sometimes better Used to it i guess.
Well I better get something done. HI to you all and wishing you a great day! We never did get rain here and looks like today is nice and sunny and a bit cooler. Yah
Afternoon ladies,
We were up early this a.m., just didn't get on line till much later. As we had our breakfast, the boys hit the man cave and I did my Supersets workout and then after our OJ we made up a pie from my old BHG pie cookbook....a homemade graham cracker crust (Chuck did) while I mixed up the 1/3 the fat Philly cream cheese, Cool Whip and some blueberries (Winco's)...plus I had some with Snap, Crackle and Pop this morning too...they were delicious...another PLUS for Winco LOL
Got on line and did my checks, my Food & Exercise journal and my report to my cardio group and by then it was time to put the filling in the crust as it's warmed back up enough and the crust is cooled and ready for the filling.
It's now in the fridge getting nice and cold for tonight's dessert. Hoping to replace some of the ice cream nights for fruit pies, turnovers (next up on our agenda, making up pastry crusts for fruit turnovers and for our own food type versions of hot pockets LOL).
Got my mail checked and now off to make up some folders and reorganize my DVD club mail file better before it's time for lunch.
Hope you are having a good day, so far and the rest of the day goes well,
Blueberry cheesecake sounds yummy, Sue. I do love me some cheesecake. I made a no-bake peanut butter cup vegan version (with cashews instead of cream cheese) last week. The recipe called for an Oreo crust and chopped Reese's as a garnish, but I skipped those and just poured the filling into silicon muffin cups, topped with the ganache, and froze them. It was totally delicious. And I didn't get a headache from the PB, so that was a double plus.
YAH, I haven't had much luck getting DA out for long. Once or twice she's agreed to go sit outside with me, but she doesn't last 5 minutes and she starts asking to go inside, saying she's going to get lost. (So yes, we were beyond shocked when she decided she was going outside by herself last Wed.) I'm sorry you didn't get your mom's stories recorded. I know we think we will remember them, but memory is such a fickle thing. I was just telling DH we need to fill our oil tank, too, in August before the heating season raises the prices.
Hope you and Charger had fun at the park and shopping went well, Angii.
Not being able to sleep stinks for sure, Barb. DA has been asleep all day, so I expect she'll keep me up tonight. Not being up on the lingo, I had to laugh at the image of you getting a yak. A little yak milk on your oatmeal in the winter, no mowing the lawn in the summer--sounds like a real possibility!
Hope your dental appointment and PO meeting went well, Dianna. I hope we don't have to remove the first two coats of paint from the stable, but I don't really know yet. I'm not assertive either--I told DH when he asked me if he should ask HD for a refund, "go ahead, but I doubt they'll do anything, and that's okay--I really should have looked before I paid." It was a warm day when I bought it, and DA was waiting in the car, so I was in a big tearing hurry. I don't know if I'd have looked anyway though, to be honest. I tend to assume people know what they are doing. DH would have checked, but I'd be afraid of offending the paint guy. That's one reason I am hesitant to take DA to the doctor--totally no good at assertiveness. I don't want to end up with her in the hospital again; I vowed last summer not to put her through all that misery and fright again, after the Visiting Nurse asked me why on earth I took her to the ER. Uh, because the dr told me to. I know the doctor has to cover herself, and I know myself well enough to know that I wouldn't argue with her. I did dig out DA's test sticks to make sure there's no bacteria, etc. in her urine. It seems to be more dementia than anything physical.
Any lookers on your house lately, Bama?
The dogs are pacing for their dinner, so I'd better get going here. Have a nice evening, everyone~
Hi again lovely ladies, just catching up with you all,
Angii, sorry to hear about your friends bike, but sounds like you still had a nice time and I see Charger had a marvelous time LOL Nothing like a brewski after a ride!
Thanks for the start today, Dianna. Good luck at the dentist today and so sorry to hear about the post office. Good luck to your hubby on his board meeting too. I am sure you will find something to keep you busy.
Dianna, can you give the tree trimmer and contractor a call to remind me and set a definitive date?
Yes, Dianna that was the case yesterday as it was nice out to me and he had the a/c down to 78, which was ridiculous. I had a dress with sleeves on so I could be warmer. So I was very cranky. I hate being cold all the time.
Oh Bama, I love the Good Morning....Good morning song too. I think you are right, but since we don't watch TV but the news and late shows, not sure.
Sorry to hear about your aunt on Sunday, Molasses, and your lack of sleep too. HUGS Oh no and your SIL not doing the stable and yikes on the paint but glad your DH tried and got a store credit. Been there, done that with some things over the years and like yourself, thereafter made sure I double checked it.
Barb, glad you have another nice week ahead and it feels like rain here, in fact, they said we could get some, so I will share it with you. Chuck does the bill pays, Barb, but since I do all the entry work, I know about them too and not our favorite thing either.
LOL about the dogs being watchdogs, I think it's cute. I am with you and Molasses with the sleep. Very frustrating.
Barb, as you know I don't have family close by at all and as I also have said, according to them I am 'dead to them' I can relate. HUGS on the other friends.
Barb that's not whining that's just wishing you could spend more time with people you like and care for....it's missing them and wishing you could spend more time. LOL about blueberry patches being as secret as good fishing holes LOL
Oh Angii, Charger sounds like Mr. Bo Jangles, he loved to go with us to the race tracks too and he was excellent off leash also. Hoping shopping went well today. Can't wait to see the sunrise pics.
YAH, so glad no call in for you and hope tomorrow isn't too bad. Us too on the 90s by the end of today they say. But cloudy, damp and a bit clammy here. Not much though however, they all think so! HUGS on not recording the stories of your mom....
I will tell you how good it is tomorrow Molasses, but since both of us licked stuff after we were done, the filling was excellent. Now to see how our crust made out LOL
Well Dianna and Molasses, as you know I am assertive and it does pay off LOL
Well I am all caught up and off to get some computer maintenance work done.
Have a nice night,
Well just stopping by to say Good Night as I guess I'm winding down and have to Try to go sleep earlier but who knows? Some Black clouds have gone by but no rain at all and sun keeps coming out to. Its 70 here and 60's elsewhere. I imagine tues. is the new Monday at work so will be a busy day and I have the long halls for clothes to be put away again.
Sue, forgot to say I Loved the comic's also from the other day and agreed with a lot of them but can't remember which I know lots of them show how it will be in the future with kids and them not knowing the old technology hey? I grew up with none of them
Not even electricity! Never missed it though. Kind of like to have a wood stove and all now if I had a bigger kitchen though Can't depend on the electricity much these days. Enjoy your night and sleep well
Angii, sounds like Charger sure had a lot of fun and nice to be in a uncrowded place to relax to I do hate grocery shopping! Need to at least pick up rye bread for Dh tomorrow but may put off the rest until Wed. and try to get to Shopko on their one Senior Day 15% off day of the month Hoping I can go earlier and not get called in to work that day.
Mo, I guess no good having your DA outside if she might take off also now You'd have to keep an eye on her for sure hey? Hope she sleeps tonight for you also
Getting garbage out tonight but sure could have got a lot more out. Seems I run out of steam to fast at home
Sue, bet the blueberry cheesecake will be delicious! I made spagetti today. Something to go a long way I guess Took long enough. Had to defrost the beef first
I should have filled up with gas last Sat. in town as I hear its going up so I'm hoping not to high yet tomorrow.
Have a very good night all and hopefully we'll all get some very good sleep to! Yah
Shopping was a success. However, I also did some shopping for a freezer meal workshop I am going to with a pampered chef lady next sunday, so I bought some stuff I normally don't. I am hoping that it will help with nights and days we are busy and just don't have any idea on what to cook. We will see,, a lot of it calls for stuff that cody doesn't really like (broccoli and squash,ect) so keeping my fingers crossed he will eat it.
Not many buddies at the park this morning. But we were not there long. We didn't get out of here on time because my MIL called and we chatted for a while. Charger was in the background yelling at me to get off the phone.
Then I ran out to the pet food store about 30 mimutes away to get Charger's food, only to find out that they have closed and only do deliveries now! OMG Grrrrr, that was a waste of fuel. But I did find some closer to home, but the only had the small bag. Oh well, at least he won't run out now.
Well I better run and see if dinner is done.
Popping in to say Good Morning Ladies and hoping you all have a very nice day!!! Its suppose to be sunny for some days now, not to much chance of rain etc., so I hope today is my only day this week! Humidity is up so I hope they did get the fan but probably not
I got about 3 very good hrs. of sleep but after midnight, Dh came down for his pills, I could not fall asleep. Kind of dreamed on and off but no deep sleep at all so at 2:30 a.m, got up. I leave for work at 6 a.m. so I suppose after work I will feel it. Couldn't take another sleep helper as it would probably work at the wrong time.
Angii, sounds like Charger got some time out and sorry about the food for him. I hate wasting gas also Hopefully the food will be made in a way you hardly know the vege's are there Enjoy your day! Well, off to look for a bite to eat soon and find some clothes also. Election day also later on. Really have to pick some berries today also and son will probably get off same time as me today. BBL, Yah
The post office meeting got off to a bad start. The lady that the post office sent to run the meeting wasn't from the area and her GPS sent her to the wrong place. She arrived 26 minutes late and some people were very rude about it. But in the up side, they aren't going to close our post office. It will however not longer have a postmaster and only be open 6 hours a day during the week and I think 4 hours on Saturday. She said some post offices will only be open 2 or 4 hours a day and some will be closed so we got the best option that was on the table. People eventually calmed down and thanked her for her time.
Hope last night went better than expected and both you and your aunt slept through the night, Molasses.
Sorry about the lack of sleep, YAH. Hope today goes well for you. Wow, on the 15% senior discount. Our stores only give 5% to seniors on Wednesday.
Sue, your cheesecake sounds yummy but it wouldn't get eaten here. DH isn't fond of blueberries and I can't have it on my diet.
Sorry about not being able to get Charger's food, Angii. What kind does he eat? Would someplace like Tractor Supply have it?
Sorry that August will be a slow month for spending time with your friends, Barb. Maybe when tourist season is over you will be able to do more with them. Also sorry to hear that you are having sleep issues. Can you not fall asleep or do you just wake up a lot through the night? I can fall asleep but my legs wake me up a lot. Been using a pillow for my knees this week but then that makes my hip sore and that wakes me up. Yep, getting old stinks but it beats the alternative.
Glad you were able to sleep in a little, Alabama. But me thinks that you are like me, a late start completely messes up your day. But since you have you house all nice and clean and the yards all spruced up for showings, you shouldn't have as much to do so sleeping late now and then may be good for you. Enjoy it when you can. Do you have any projects on the go right now? Knowing you you'll soon be making Christmas gifts unless you've moved all of your supplies to Ohio or have sold them at your garage sale.
Not sure what we are doing today. I'd hoped to work on trimming some shrubbery but it's going to be a hot one today. Until it gets dry enough to run the generator for the trimmers the sun will be beating down on us. Not so bad for trimming but awful hard on DH when he has to drag all of the trimmings up hill to the woods. He's having a harder time with that this year, makes his heart race. I had to give it up a few years back because of my knees so I am no help. So we are trying to work when it isn't supper hot and humid this year. As we've said, getting older stinks.
I've recently noticed some signs of fall approaching. I so love fall but I am no longer a fan of winter. The only good thing about winter is there isn't any yard work. Winter is so ugly here, unless there is fresh snow cover. In my ideal world there would only be spring and fall. I love all the flowers and of spring and the colors of fall. Not a fan of heat and humidity or cold.
Well, time find something to get into.
Have a good day.
Good Morning all,
Sounds like most of us are having a hard time sleeping. I can fall asleep but do not sleep very long . Never 8 hours . What to do What to do . I don't have a clue.
Yes, I agree on Winter but I am tired of the heat also. To hot to get out and do anything . I always wanted to live in the South but now I have I am tired of bugs and heat . My perfect world would be to live here in the Winter and head up North for Spring and Summer but DH likes to go when he feels the urge . LOL.
We are still waiting on our Ladder to be returned. I am actually getting a little perturbed about it. We could already have our spouting finished. He has both of ours. We bought an extension ladder very tall so he could paint the top of the house . The house is mostly brick except for the two ends and that is only the top . I know they do a lot for us and we were and are going to give them to him when we sale the house. No lookers for awhile . Too many for sale in our area . The news had a spot about it saying it was a buyers market . So please someone buy this house.. I am tired of living make shift.
No crafts for me this year . Just not in the mood. I have my mothers sewing machine in Ohio and one here also. I am planning on going thru the fabric and getting rid of some .
We have some errands to do so need to get moving on that. Want to get out before the 90 degree plus hits us.
I think this early evening I will take some time for myself and start the book that I bought last month.
Sue , I still haven't' read the last Sisterhood book so I need to do it . Maybe that will put me in a better mood.
Trying to get motivated to do a little cleaning, but not having much luck. I really need to get out of town! I don't seem to be able to get DH motivated, but maybe I can get him to move the camper out so we can clean and organize it. It's not supposed to rain for a few days. We also need to go through the camping gear boxes.
It seems like it's been years since I've been able to sleep normally, whatever that is. I took Advil PM for a long time, then that didn't work as well and I need to lay off the anti-inflammatory drugs since they mess up my stomach. I've been on ambien for the last couple of years. I rarely get more than 5 hours of sleep, even with that. I can't seem to fall asleep and I always wake up in the middle of the night for a pit stop. Always have, even as a kid. I also have some auto-immune stuff going on so melatonin is not recommended. I do sleep better when I go in Jazmine's room - not sharing with snoring DH, no TV, no dog sprawling across the bed. I need to try the no electronics at bedtime to see if that helps. I can use my old Kindle, I think, but the Kindle Fire has a really bright backlit screen.
Not much else to report. Back to my never-ending laundry in my miniature washer and dryer.
Morning, everyone,
DA did actually sleep through the night, although I didn't. I woke her up this morning to change her wet sheets and clothes, and she stayed awake to eat breakfast (whey protein smoothie and a piece of toast), but now she's napping again. I think she is in an end-of-life phase, but I could be wrong. She is not in any distress (unlike your mom, YAH, she's not shy about voicing complaints!) at this point, so that's good. Also she seems to have plenty of strength. I was changing her pants last night and she grabbed my wrist--I had a hard time getting free. I don't want to be Chicken Little, but I am wondering though how the hospice thing works, just in case we need it later. Would I call her doctor, or google "hospice" and call them directly? Anybody know? The way she buzzed through her breakfast, she may very well be ready to pop out of bed later, but I feel like we need to kind of prepare for anything.
Since she's better today, I have DD coming in a little bit so I can run out to find some waterproof mattress pads. I've got a drop cloth under the bottom sheet for now. Those Depends are not leakproof--I've been washing sheets, mattress pads and blankets for the past 3 days.
I don't have time to respond to everyone, but I'm sending hugs to everyone who is having trouble sleeping or feeling down about things.
I have to say, I kind of like winter; it's a vacation period when there's nothing to be done outside.
Have a great day, everyone!
Mo, The hospice can be done through her DR. She would need an appointment, and then hospice can come in a few times a week (or daily) and they will do things to make sure she is comfortable, but they do not do any life prolonging measures including antibiotics. They are Angels that walk among us. The best people on earth, and they do almost as much for the survivors as they do for the patient. However Hospice usually only goes for 6 months at the most. If your Aunt has medicare, and her Dr is aware of her incontinence, she can get home delivery of depends and the mattress protectors. You can also use the puppy training pads to place under her. They work better than the other ones, and they also control the smell better I hope that helps. You can email me anytime with other questions too. email@example.com
Not sure what all I will get into today. I am feeling kinda lazy.
Mo, I think her Doctor will have to decided on Hospice . At least that is how it went for my Mother. They are really a big help . They came at least once a day and bath her and set with her while I ran some errands or just got out of the house. They are great people for sure.
I too like Winter in a lot of ways. I love not having the yard work also plus I love a big bowl of Chili and staying in all day reading or watching a good movie and I have always had a thing for Coats .LOL. No Coats needed here!!!
Glad you are getting out for a little break also. I know you need it.
Barb, I tried Ambien and it cause me to have Hallucinations. Now the only thing that helps me are two bendyrals a few hours before bedtime but I still don't sleep 8 hours and am up at least once during the night .
Well it is hotter than Haties here so we are in for the day.
Another busy morning, did my vacuuming while the boys were in the man cave, and more cooking today too. We did the prep work and and then while Chuck finished the cooking I did took the vacuum outside the front door and did the dreaded vacuum cleaning....my dream is a Sears canister vacuum (like I had in the old days)!
Still tired today. Old age really stinks LOL I am off to do my mail check now, there were "actual news stories" I read this morning on the feed and Chuck also sent me one over in my mail. So would like to get that done before lunch.
Back later to do some catch up....
Thanks for all the information, Angii and Bama. Interesting on the doggie pads--I'll definitely check those out for next time. I should have read your post before I ran to Walmart, Angii--I have the Depends protector pads, but they won't last long at the rate we are going through them. I am feeling much better tonight. Yesterday I thought the end was near, but she seems much better today than yesterday. She still doesn't want to get out of bed (getting her out so I could put a waterproof cover on her mattress was a big production; it was lucky my DD was here), but she's opening her eyes anyway, and she has an appetite. As soon as I can get her moving around enough to get into the car, I'll run her down to her doctor for a check, and to talk about where we are. She does have Medicare, so I'll ask about the incontinence supplies, too. She has definitely decreased in functional capacity. The dr said last time that she has vascular dementia so I'm guessing she may have had another little stroke last week before her manic episode, but who knows. Anyway, yesterday I was all doom and gloom, but I feel a lot more optimistic today.
Wishing everyone (including me) a solid night's sleep!
Nice warm day and perfect if you were outside and not working inside No new fan yet so felt very warm as other fans are more on floor and the one cools the head a bit which feels very good although sometimes it feels like warm air to. then had to get stamps from P.O. and get Dh's pills and went over son's as he was off earlier also. He had picked a container of raspberries from the top already and so that was very nice as I was feeling to tired to do it. Spent some time there. Probably should have slept over to get some much needed sleep without interruptions, but came home. I want to get to town for things tomorrow but we'll see if I get out. Hoping very hard no call in! Suppose to be Very nice through the week.
When I got home a big motorcycle was on corner with guy by it and I only go down the road about 50 ft. and back in, so he came up the driveway and asked where he was. He was calling for road assistance, and I said your about a mile from Champion so that would be more noteworthy to say although your in Humboldt township I asked where he was from. He said Vancouver, Canada and on his way to Florida! Exciting trip I'll bet. He had gray hair so he must be doing a good trip through. Dh was in the house at that time and I guess he hadn't talked to him at all. I saw a tow truck finally come and pick him up.
I love Spring and Fall also Di! Although our summer sure has not had to many real hot days this year! And kind of sick of the long winter Can your Dh run those branches etc. with a lawn tractor or anything?
Hope you sell your house very soon Bama and get your ladder back also
Mo, My sis had set my mom up a bit with Hospice when she was down her house and all I did was bring her to get check up and she went on it over here then later. just was so glad I got to have her as other's were working then so I enjoyed every minute but feel like we could have done more driving around if patches for pain early on. Plus she was always skinny and later, her legs would start swelling up so that was close to the end. Once she was in bed to long, the fluid went up then. I gave her showers and all so Hospice just came to check b/p mostly here and there. Course a lot of her friends stopped to say good bye also. hope your DA keeps up the better spirit there.
Angii, Sue and Barb, I see you all have some trouble sleeping also and I sure do! I hear good so that doesn't help. Am looking for a thing that makes lots of noise like a fan but a lot louder I guess
Hoping to get to town for things tomorrow later. I'll probably miss my DB and SIl but they usually just stop for a few min. anyway and she will be watching out for her eye on their way back from Green Bay again. Funeral for the 19 yr. old tomorrow although I'm not going as I didn't know her but I don't really go funerals much. Very sad I'm sure it will be
Well have a very good sleepy night now and keep your fingers crossed for no work for me also Yah
Love the picture, YAH. I'd like to sit there on that swing and relax.
I agree, Hospice is wonderful. They helped with my in-laws care. As the others have said I think the doctor or someone else in the medical profession needs to make the determination that it is warranted. As far as the 6 months time limit, I think it can be extended. Molasses, if hospice isn't available to you, does your area have some sort of home health care available. I would certainly think your aunt would be eligible for that and maybe at reduced or no out of pocket cost. You can check with your Agency on Aging Office to see what is available to her and what she would need to pay.
Family is due back later tonight. I'll do some touch up cleaning when I get back from running errands. DD said she'd call before I leave to get groceries to give me an idea when they will be around for meals and what they eat. They have some things they want to do while they are here and will be in an out. I don't want to buy a lot of food that won't get eaten. That tends to happen when they visit. Either they don't want what I have planned or they aren't here to eat it. I was trying to avoid that this trip but there have already been menu changes to the dinner the night they were here and to what I had planned for when they get back. So, hope she calls so I know what to buy.
Better get my rear in gear if I want to get out the door on time. Have a good day all.
Good Morning ,
Ahh, Di, I have been though that also in Ohio on Meals. I plan something and then there is always someone that doesn't like or eat something I am having . Now I just ask what they want before I fix. Also when my Sil and Bil visit . They eat different than we do . Now when we visit we will eat what ever is planned rather we like it or not.
So Sad Yah, about the 19 year old . Doesn't seem right that someone so young has to be taken . Hope no call ins today for you. That is along Trip to Florida on a Motorcycle . I remember when My Sis and her DH had Harleys that they rode one year from Michigan to Florida and she said she would never again. Her hiney was so sore by the time they arrived.
Not much structured planned today. Got Some sheets in Lucy and will just play it by ear for the rest of the day. Am making Chicken and Noodles for DH and that is about all . Maybe some touch up in the house and since I didn't start the book making do that. I sure don't get as much done now that DH is home all the time. Bless his heart he kinda cramps my style if you know what I mean.
I have to say that Hospice was a godsend for me, too. Even though I was so far away, they kept me up to date on my mom's condition. They are definitely angels on earth.
Yep, I know what you mean, Bama. My DH seems to be around more and accomplishing less, or at least not finishing projects he has started. I really hope he gets on this next film for a couple of weeks. He's over getting some PT on his hand this morning, and will be out moving some things around the photography group windows this afternoon. I'm enjoying not being interrupted every 15 minutes, even though I'm just goofing around online. I should get a few things done so I can run over to Shopko (Sr. Day) and the grocery store - when he gets back. Plus I'm mad 'cause he raided my leftover cash box and now I have to get more cash for the show next weekend - and I have no receipts to track where it went. He really does think money grows on trees - Grrrrr.
Sorry you're frustrated about the menu issues, Dianna. Hope things work out and you're not stuck with a bunch of food you can't eat.
Hi Sue, Angii & YAH. Hope your day goes well today!
Enjoy your alone time, Barb. Had to smile about your husband not finishing projects. Sounds so familiar. Not just my DH, it seems to be a common complaint from others as well. Hope your DH gets a job on the next movie.
Enjoy your book, Alabama. Believe or not I actually spent most on Monday afternoon reading a book. It's the 4th novel in the Elm Creek Quilt series. It took me forever to get through the 3rd one but this one holds my interest. I kind of hated to put it down.
When DD called this morning she said it will be late until they get here tonight. She hasn't called back to say they are on the road yet so I am guessing it will be very late. It took them 6 1/2 hours to get there and they have several stops to make this trip. I have a feeling they aren't going to be able to squeeze everything in that they want to do while they are here. They asked DH to help GS build a bat house for one of his boy scout projects. DH just said with all they have planned to do there may not be enough time to get it done. He's precutting some of it now in hopes that GS has time to do his part of the project. GS has to build it to get credit, DH can't do it for him. DD said they may have to shelve the 2nd scout project since they likely won't have time to do it. I couldn't stand to be busy all of the time the way they are. Too each his own. If we were all alike the world would be boring.
Well the washer just stopped so better put Ethel to work and get my cleaning done if I am going to do it. It's nice out and I'd rather be outside working but such is life. If I get busy, maybe I'll have time to read some more of my book before it's time to go to church tonight. Or I could weed a flower bed instead of reading. We'll see.
I was going to say "good morning," but that ship has long since sailed!
I've got DA out of bed and in her chair. She was in bed all morning, so I figured I'd use lunch as the lure to get her up and it worked perfectly. I found some old cassettes of Finnish music, and managed to dig up a cassette player, too, so she's listening to those.
You have my sympathy on the interruptions and cash box, Barb. Years ago I had to get rid of our ATM cards because DH would do a balance check and then withdraw money, never thinking there may be checks that need to be covered. I'm crossing my fingers for the job with the next film to work out--you sound like you could really use some time alone to recharge.
Hope you found something fun to do after the chicken and noodles, Bama! And I absolutely know what you mean about your DH cramping your style. I get about 1/3 as much done when my DH is home, underfoot.
I hope you heard from your DD, Dianna, and got the grocery list/menu sorted. We had someone come twice a week for awhile last summer after DA got out of the nursing home. I thought it was going to be great, but I couldn't wait till the time was up. She basically came to do DA's shower. She didn't do housework or anything because it's my house, not DA's. Because of the dogs, I didn't feel comfortable just leaving the house while she was here, so it wasn't any kind of break for me. And her schedule was always changing, so she'd come at 9 one day and then not till 11 the next time. It was a monkeywrench in the spokes of our routine; I found it easier to do the shower myself, esp since I worried about our well because she'd run the shower the whole time DA was getting undressed--it was never on for less than 25 minutes.
Looks like a picture of heaven there, YAH! I hope you weren't called in today, and you spend the time doing something relaxing and enjoyable.
Hi, Sue and Angii!
I'd better go get in the shower while DA is occupied. Have a great day, everyone!
Another busy morning, hence the afternoon posting....in addition to my workout also got a lot of other stuff done too, one of which was my "haircut" finally and then a shower, of course. After which I did my dusting so only have the computer room to do tonight after dinner. Didn't however, get to my hallway walls so hoping tomorrow.
Well now I am off to do all my normal morning checks of stories, on line stuff and mail. Got my food and workout logged and talked to you lovely ladies. Hoping to do my catch up after lunch...and hoping you are all having a nice day,
Hi all! Figured the pic might come in if I just put it on quickly and then submit and then post, and it did! Until son gets to look at my laptop as to what I did to it
I DID get called in this morning! Should have known. But she didn't call like she would do at 5 a.m for me as she knows how I like more time to get ready, she called at 6:20 a.m, 10 min. before the shift starts! guess the nurse or? put the note on another door again So I had taken a herbal sleep pill at 6 to try to get a few more hrs. of sleep as so bad the night before and hadn't gone sleep until after 11 pm as I felt better later and no work so I was sleeping and didn't hear the vibrate call as I would usually do. Oh well
I should have stayed at son's anyway last night and I might have got more things done as I should know when I go out home in the boondocks, I am always late or don't go. I left late, and haven't really done anything much but thrift store and been over son's enjoying my time here. Took shower and not sure of Shopko today. Well at least I enjoyed it. Nice perfect day otherwise and I suppose my Db and Sil went through. Son should be home soon as he was doing the food order again so went a bit earlier. My middle son is the one I need to check my laptop out since he has taken care of all the things on it though.
My youngest son called as he's on his way to Marq. and remote working tomorrow from his business and Fri. so he can be up here and go Crystal Falls for his wife's family reunion this weekend. DIL was down there for the last weekend and came back up I think on Mon. to work. They did find a 3 bedroom for rent for workers to go down instead of staying at the Radisson ?sp hotel thats a lot cheaper by the month and only 6 miles away from capital. He said they went in a coach to Detroit for a meeting to see a very elite business yesterday and so he got to downtown Detroit for a few hrs. Nice to visit but not to stay. Maybe Ketti and kids will stay also down there for a bit until they can get some others to take over more down there and he can do whatever remotely I guess except for some meetings.
Di, I hope the food gets used also and I don't think I would care to cook anymore for anyone else Would be easy stuff and they would eat it or nothing. I just don't have the table etc. anymore so don't have to worry about it I guess. Hopefully you will have a nice visit with your DD at least.
Mo, hope you got to do something you liked to do as in outside also today And hope you find some answers for your situation also.
I agree with all of you who have a Dh to much around Nice to have them but not when your trying to get a job done and no help seems like. Glad mine has his Big man cave I guess but he gets to have all the company and I want to be somewhere else. Maybe I'll find something yet.....
Hi to all of you out there and better go as son should be here real soon. I should have brought the key i forgot to put on nail in laundry also. Maybe I will yet. they have others but, and who knows, the lady who called in today, maybe she'll call in a 2nd day Otherwise I'm on for a Sat. again. Have a very good night all! yah
Hi ladies. I stopped by earlier, but then a g/f called and I got distracted. I am grumpy today. I have been having off and on issues with my Tahoe, and it is really starting to tick me off! LOL A few months ago, I got a check engine light, so we took it in to the dealer (2 months past the 3 year warranty) and they said it was an O2 sensor, so we paid for that, and then about 3 weeks later, it happened again, so they said it was the Mass Air Flow sensor even though it is the same trouble code, so we paid for that, but that time they let us keep the rig for a while first, but right after we went to Idaho and the Tahoe stayed here in the garage for 4 weeks. We finally paid for that last week and my check engine light came on YESTERDAY! So now they want to re-wire the Tahoe, which we will have to pay for before they can see if it is the computer which is still covered under my valve train warranty. So I am cranky, I have 18291 miles on it (super low miles) and I shouldn't be having these issues. I even checked to see what it was worth today to possibly sell it or trade it in, but that was just a whim, I love my Tahoe and once we fix the issue, I am sure it will be fine. But it has put me in a cranky mood.
Well dinner is in the oven, and I need to get some veggies out of the freezer to put in the steamer!
Angii, that is crazy about your Tahoe. Would you have any chance of coverage under the lemon law? You shouldn't need to spend that kind of money when it has so few miles.
Molasses, sorry having health care people come in to help doesn't work. It was just a thought. Glad your aunt sat and listened to music for awhile any way.
Glad you got to spend some time at your son's place, YAH.
Hi Barb, Alabama and Sue.
Family got in around 10:30, had some dessert and visited for awhile. Guess it was about midnight till the adults went to bed. I finished reading my book around 1:30 this morning so slept in until 6:30. Guess I'll go work quietly in the kitchen for awhile. I am thinking the grandkids will be up before too long.
Have a great day.
Good Morning , Just dropping in for a second . No time to read posts this am.
Ladder is back so you know what I am doing . I want to at least get the front of the house done today. Plus all the other everyday stuff .
Back later this afternoon to catch up.
Di, I did read your post . Enjoy your family today.
Di, we have had the Tahoe too long to have a lemon law claim. But it is all ok, I was just venting. We had a great time at the dog park today. Charger's best buddies were there so he had a blast.
Not sure what I will get into today, I need to get to the garden, I didn't do it yesterday because they were tarring the cracks in the street, and I couldn't handle the smell, so I stayed inside and did some stuff that needed to be done. Just wanted to pop in and say HI, and that I really wish I was in Boise at a big race this weekend.
Unfortunately no workout last night for me (boo hiss), as all of a sudden I had this horrendous pain at my temples after we finished our ice cream for dessert. I was cool so thought it was brain freeze LOL but realized my mouth hurt too, so had to go take a faux ibuprofen, subsided some after I lay down in bed. But bending and working out was NOT in the cards. Oh well, hoping for a better night this evening as I feel better just tired. Had one of those night's sleep where I was up every hour on the hour and then had the stupidest/weirdest dream too.
Got the computer room dusted before breakfast and then the place vacuumed after breakfast and then did my pedicure, I have been meaning to do for about 2 weeks, but haven't gotten too. Usually do it at night while we watch TV but with Chuck's back being so bad I need to help him carry stuff for our dessert and all, so nixed it. So took time after I was all done with everything else today. However, I did tell him to remind if I ever think sitting on the floor in the back bathroom with all the lights on (since I thought the lighting would be good....hmmmm 59 year old body trying to get up, after a crummy night's sleep and being achy.....BIG MISTAKE (as Julia Roberts would say LOL). But they are done and look good.
Well I am off to check my other boards(I have a lot of catch up to do on all of them) and mail, hopefully both before lunch. Wishing you all a great day,
HI all, Well it worked again with pic first Love to be in the pic! No call in today so I don't know if lady called in again or not as they probably asked someone to work in case of it yesterday. Had son bring in key I forgot as he forgot his cell phone when he got home Its in 70"s today and pretty nice humidity to. Guess it looks nice thru Sunday now but humidity will be going up and Sat. when I work it will be 80's so i hope they have that special fan by then. Course clouds come along so can't really go by the weather man.
Son got home from Lansing about 11 pm last night in Marq. so working from there today and partly tomorrow, probably washing his clothes and all to so his wife's family reunion in CF's this weekend so will be done with that and I suppose back to Lansing for Monday. I should have gone to shopko in Marq. really yesterday, but did go in work town but they close early! So got some stuff anyway and then to the grocery store.
Di, enjoy your company and you do have the turkey right? Should be enough for all kinds of meals Hope your day goes well
Angii, I have had the Oxygen sensor light on forever it seems. But Dh says it comes on for nothing with wires old etc. so we don't worry about it or engine light. But your Tahoe must be very new so it shouldn't be on so quick! I know I need new brake routers etc. soon though. He put them on not so long ago but made in China don't last long anymore Have a super day and I see Charger did
Mo, hope your DA let you get some sleep and your day is going well?
Bama, enjoy your ladder today and be very careful hey?
Sue, hope you feel better today and can get in your exercise and all. I can hardly reach my toes so I don't do anything since its hard enough to cut my nails I see you got enough done already with the cleaning so have a very nice afternoon and some down time
Better get a move on also for now so BBL, Yah
Good afternoon, all,
I'm pretty sure DA was up all night again, and she was wrapped in her blanket, on the floor when I got up. I called the dr's office when they opened at 8 and made her an appt for 11:15. They drew some blood and are supposed to call me tomorrow. All I've learned so far is that she's got atrial fibrillation, which they'd normally treat with a blood thinner, but that's not an option for someone who falls down. The dr gave her a prescription to calm her down on the nights she won't sleep. I thought it was a sleeping pill--but when I picked it up, I saw that it was the same medication I made them quit giving her at the nursing home last summer--risperdal. At this point though, I guess it's probably safer than having her pacing her room all night, and falling down. I told the dr (not her regular doctor, who is on vacation) that I didn't want her admitted to the hospital and she agreed that it is probably best to be less aggressive, especially with her dementia being so advanced. She asked me if I wanted to do blood work, and I said sure--that's not something that will upset DA. And if all she needs is an antibiotic or something like that, great. I don't want to hurry her demise, I just don't want her put in the hospital. She's been chattering all day, 97% total nonsense: I should check up on that Mexican who was making Kenzie buy soup (DD was in the room); can I hand her that mayonnaise (gesturing in the direction of a roll of tp) so she could eat it; who's that big, tall man? (Uh, that's me.) She's seeing things that aren't there (tissues on the floor) and not seeing what is right in front of her. She was trying to drink from her magnifying glass and eat her crayons.
I'm sorry about your pain last night, Sue, and the missed workout.
No wonder you were upset about the Tahoe, Angii! Hope it can finally be fixed, and not too expensively.
Good luck with your gutter cleaning, Bama. Be careful on that ladder! Our SIL has been painting a shed in our yard and whenever I look out and see him on the ladder, I get kind of nervous because the ground is not flat.
Dianna, hope you are enjoying your family's visit. Sorry about my negativity on the home help suggestion! It was just not a great experience last summer.
Glad you didn't have to work today, YAH, and hope you don't have to go tomorrow either. Sat. is probably soon enough, right?
Hope all is well, Barb.
I'd better get this posted--it's taken me hours to finish! Have a peaceful evening, everyone~

Take-5 … March – Steak with Halloumi Potato Bake
March 21, 2012 in Mains, Take-5
Last month I decided to set myself a monthly challenge to post a recipe using only 5 ingredients (not counting 'everyday' kitchen ingredients).
With today being a public holiday and 'taking it easy' being on my to-do list, it was the perfect day to do my Take-5 Challenge for March. Rummaging through my fridge & freezer I found a smallish rump steak, a piece of halloumi cheese and a punnet of mushrooms, which I thought could be used together somehow. Adding a few potatoes and an onion brought me to the prescribed 5 ingredients, to which I added some 'everyday' ingredients – garlic, chilli, black pepper & olive oil. The result was a really tasty meal that took no effort to make (and didn't require a trip to the shops).
You could adapt this recipe by adding/removing any number of ingredients … I'm tempted to try adding cooked chippolata sausages next time, to make this a one-dish-meal.
Rump steak (1 per person)
3 medium potatoes, peeled & cut into 1-inch cubes
1 large onion, halved then each half cut into 6 rough slices
1/2 punnet button mushrooms, quartered
5 cloves garlic, sliced
2 red chillies, seeded & sliced
olive oil
freshly-ground black pepper
About 150g halloumi cheese, sliced fairly thinly (I also cut a bit into cubes, which I fried & had on my salad – halloumi overload)!
Preheat the oven to 200C.
Toss the potato cubes, onion slices, mushrooms, garlic & chilli together in an ovenproof dish with a couple of glugs of olive oil and a generous grinding of black pepper then cook in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked (mixing them again once or twice whilst cooking).
Turn on the grill & top the potato mixture with slices of halloumi – pop under the grill for 5 – 10 minutes, or until the cheese is soft and browned.
Whilst grilling, cook the steak. I fried a few extra cubes of halloumi at the same time – these were delicious, but I should probably have left them out with the amount of halloumi I'd put onto the potatoes (and I will NOT be standing on the scale for at least a week)!
Serve immediately.

New technology in volatile filming corrosion inhibitors and lower-salting neutralizing amines can provide cost-effective solutions for the steam-condensate system and minimize the risk of amine chloride salt formation.
Keywords: [boiler] [water treatment] [amines] [corrosion] [chemical treatment] [condensate]
For decades, neutralizing and filming amines have been used to protect steam condensate in boiler systems. In refining operations, where steam is utilized to improve fractionation, added attention is needed to the type and amount of amines added to the boiler/steam system to minimize amine chloride salt fouling in the distillation column and crude overhead. New technology in volatile filming corrosion inhibitors and lower-salting neutralizing amines can provide cost-effective solutions for the steam-condensate system and minimize the risk of corrosive amine chloride salt formation. This approach is useful for refinery operations working to maximize distillate production while maintaining protection of difficult-to-treat steam condensate systems, e.g., reboilers using flashed steam, and high-alkalinity makeup water sources.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

"Excellent service!"
By Elizabeth Forster
Comments: I ordered a silver jewelry box for a Bat Mitzvah present. It arrived in less than 5 days, beautifully engraved and it was easy to order. The price was extremely reasonable as well compared to other sites that had other jewelry boxes and not as pretty as this one.
By Ivette Salazar
Comments: I encourage anyone wanting to purchase a special jewelry box to buy this one. It is even more beautiful than the picture can show. I'm using it to bring our wedding bands down the aisle instead of a pillow.
