  1. Albert, I apologize for being late but ...
  2. I have no words adequate to express how very sorry I am to hear this.
  3. Sawasdee Khrup Terry. My bp had been controlled up until the latest infusion. Most of the issues have normalized since the end of the infusions excepting my bp. I have a history of not tolerating bp medications well. Most stem from issues with my migraines. I'm glad bananas worked for you. They are not recommended for migraine suffers so I rarely eat them. I have an order for bloodwork in two weeks to check potassium and sodium levels. We want to be sure that we protect my kidneys. I'm lucky in my kidney disease has remained stable.
  4. Yes. What's she doing hiding amongst a bunch of flamingos?
  5. Thank you. I have mostly recovered from the effects of the infusion and feel better. The most persistent issue is my bp remains very high. I saw my nephrologist for my routine annual visit yesterday and he added a diuretic to my medications. Keeping my fingers crossed as the last time I took I diuretic after 3 days I ended up in the er with bp that put me in danger of a stroke. I am monitoring my bp closely.
  6. I am the bear in my bed ...
  7. Feel better soon Texy.
  8. You know, just because you invite them that doesn't mean they'll accept your invitation. The party on our side of the street is gonna be a lot more fun than your "celebration."
  9. Funny, I thought of modeling our celebration after Guy Fawkes Day.
  10. Eeeewwwwwwww ... you let Drew rub off on you? ... What? Oh, you mean he influenced your thoughts .... I repeat ... Eeeeeeewwwwwwwww.
  11. Hi Gary. Thank you. I'll show this to her when she gets up this morning. Blue is her favorite color and she loves pink flowers.
  12. Hi Page. Thank you, I'll tell her. Thank you Albert. I will tell her this morning.
  13. Mum arrived safely last evening. It's good to have her with me. She'll turn 88 tomorrow.
  14. It can. The oils can become rancid and develop a strange taste. If yours didn't taste off it was still okay.
  15. They drove me absolutely crazy when I went down stairs. I eventually went back to single focus lenses for distance and simply take my glasses off to read.
  16. He can't reach higher ...
  17. Gday y'all. I am recovering from a migraine that kept me in bed the better part of the last 36 hours. Not the best timing as I have things to do to prepare for Mum's arrival tomorrow evening. C'est la vie. Fortunately, I seem to be over the worst of the effects of my last infusion. I just need my bp to return to normal. I see the nephrologist next week. We'll see what he has to say. Blessed be one and all.
  18. Feel better. Maybe cut back on the drilling documentaries.
  19. He simply always tells the Drewth.
  20. Mum is arriving Thursday evening 😁
  21. It was wet, windy and chilly, 60/15°, so we did a remarkable business in woolen cloaks. Yeah, yeah how nice, it was pleasantly autumnal for the equinox. Darn Canadians keeping all the nice weather for themselves. This rain is a good thing as we've been quite dry lately. I just wish it would stop raining on the weekends. This is the third weekend that it rained on at least one of the days.
  22. Yeah, because I'm expecting him at mine. It's gonna be a cold, dreary, wet day at Faire. Heck, the whole weekend is likely to be less than pleasant as Ophelia has come a callin'. Blessed be y'all.
  23. I've read several of these stories and not a one was a disappointment. There are authors included here that I've read, just not the story chosen for the list. Others will be new to me. These lists provide me with an introduction of sorts.
