I got a line with blisters on it a few days back on my chest.  My first thought was that it was poison ivy because I had been gardening and so had the Dane.  I'm not sure if it was, but doctor google has told me I'm dying from breast cancer, which is great because my mother had it last year.  The line is gone, but it one area, it is pitted and forming a scar - I'm not sure why since I didn't pop it or scratch it.

I hope it's nothing serious.

On the other hand doctor google is a drama queen. All you have to do is cough or sneeze and you're nearly death or diagnosed with cancer

I'm thankful for the bilingual nature of Santa Fe, NM today. The internet cable installation guy was able to deal with the MIL at home so I didn't have to break away from work today. 100% of meals are home cooked these days and for the most part they've been pretty good. Ma Colombiana mixes veggies into her meals which is a foreign concept for the daughter.

 

Off to SF Bay area for a nephew's wedding over a long weekend. Should be fun. All siblings but one will be there.

Number of cooked homes precised, see man.

Mama-Mrs.-T-B. cooked when she was here, cook senior she man.

Didn't poison anything with cilantro or anything else toxic, no man.

We wish that it were foreign to Mrs. T-B., adulterate everything as much as possible sigh she man.

Nearly Many% radio silence in this thread the last couple of days, shhh man.

Everyone must be busy deciding which pre-owned toilet seats to order, complex choices man.

If that's the case, then everyone except those for whom it's not the case* is excused, excuse we man.

I think it is probably something minor.  I've being using the blister bandages, which might be a mistake.  Everything is now just gooey.

 

In baking news: I made pumpkin spice muffins yesterday for the first time.  1/2 the amount of sugar called for and still good.

 

We've had some sort of fly invasion, both indoors and out.  We have murdered many of their numbers with the fly zappers, but they are just sitting on the window screens waiting to get in.  I thought we had skipped yellow jacket season this year, as flies are always preferable to that, but it seems the hornets have come instead.  Our neighbor got stung 3 times this week, but they seem to circle her for some reason.

 

I am thinking of getting a zapper for the killing of wasps and flies outdoors.  Usually fall is the only time I can be outside and they are just going and ruining it on me.

We have grasshoppers. When we walk across the lawn they leap ahead of us, or on us, it's like a wave of creatures going off in front of you. Skeeves me out.

Hoping to paint the steps out front today. although it looks to be getting hot again.  I've still got a lot I want to get done out there before winter. Then I'll have a heap of things to do inside.

 

I hope Trudi isn't in the way of Florence.

**waves**

I've had no time since I started working, it's fun but I'm not a huge fan of the split shift thing

 

Hope all are well?

 

We are maybe in the way of Florence, our county declared a state of emergency yesterday but it's hard to comprehend what's coming when it's a beautiful day out!

They are saying 12" of rain so I'm hoping they're being overly dramatic and it's nothing like that much

 

off to work again now until 9pm..

How can "Many" be "that much," huh T ma'am?

On the other hand, how can "Many" not be "that much," huh T ma'am?

No 0.0000001% discount off a POTS until you respond definitively, si T ma'am.

Whole-small-town-wide GS event is this weekend, but too many mosquitoes and too muddy, sigh man.

Have a very few GSs/ESs locally, paltry but keep weekly streak alive sigh but si man.

[TBoneTX 45,654]

We were turning the area upside-down in searching for the rolls of Presidential dollar coins, frustrating man.

The first two Manyzen banks that we called had only mixed rolls, deficient vault contents man.

We finally found one that had Many (2x2x2+1) rolls, and we got Many (2x2x2) of those, purchase we man.

They were all of James Madison, worthy of remembrance man.

Amazing how every bank was awarsh (Texas spelling) in these years ago, but then sent them all back, bye man.
