Well third time trying to make a loaf of sourdough bread was not a charm, will try again.
Jill Y.
I sat out in the sunshine for a while, possibly a little too long. I don’t look burned but I feel a little burned. Just making sure I got my vitamin D. LOL
Cindy Merrill
My favorite beverage is coffee, unable to function properly in the morning without it, really.
Terri Quick
I woke up with some anxiety so I had to take my meds a bit earlier, so I guess it could have been better
Tamra Phelps
I have to get up before daylight for a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, lol. It’s just a lymphedema clinic thing, but I hate having to get up so early — on account of, I’m lazy, lol.
gloria patterson
Finished painting my cabinet, really like the color. Took a long nap and then a little bit on the laptop.
Kate Sarsfield
Tough day at the rescue centre. There’s a virus doing the rounds & we’ve lost 2 cats & 5 beautiful black kittens. This means sanitising before & after each cage, not cuddling the cats/kittens and keeping an even closer eye on each of them, wondering which will be the next to die. Because of this I couldn’t bring the ginger kitten to them but was given special kitten food to help him gain weight, which will hopefully help. The weather’s good until next week so he can stay outside & I’ve found where he sleeps. When the rain starts, I’ll bring him inside (I’ve got a big crate/cage), till the virus clears.
gloria patterson
Sounds like a heart breaking day for you. Hanging in there
Tamra Phelps
Oh, that makes me sad. I hope your ginger cat does well until then.
Kai
Happy Wednesday! It seems to be a bit breezy outside today.
DeeAnn
A day at the dentist. What’s more to say!

Polly Hall
Trying my hand at making sour dough bread, I’ve done the first days instruction now the dough has to sit in the fridge over night hope it works.
Tamra Phelps
Hmm, what did I do today? Not much. Sent off for my absentee ballot for the November election. Put a pork roast out to thaw. That’s about it, lol.
Jill Y.
I bought some pumpkin spice and ginger trail mix yesterday. It was okay. I wish there were fewer almonds and more ginger flavor.
Terri Quick
I’m doing ok except for my stomach acting up. Hope everyone is having a good day.
gloria patterson
Last night I started to paint the cabinet but when it dried I hated the color!
So this morning off to Lowes, so many color chips to pick from. I wanted some shade of brown to go with other stuff in the kitchen. I picked out BREVITY BROWN…………… When I got home from therapy I painted 1/2 of the cabinet and I like the color on it. Will have to do a second coat on Wed. Had to take a nap lol
I was looking at the trees when I was driving home they are really changing quickly. Looking out of my living room window there is one tree that is totally orange.
We need rain so bad.
Michele Soyer
I love the changing colors of the leaves – have not seen it in 24 years – everytime i went up it was winter..LOL..
Kate Sarsfield
The contractors were back again today to finish up. Next on the agenda is the pumping of insulation into the cavity blocks of the rest of the house but don’t have a date for it yet. A young ginger cat arrived on the doorstep last night. He’s in a bad way; v.thin & dirty, but free from ringworm, ticks and any obvious injuries. Fed & watered him and contacted the rescue centre to see if there’s room for one more. Possibly not. Don’t mind feeding him, but can’t afford vets’ fees for 5 cats 🙁
gloria patterson
Kate you have a big heart!!!
Tamra Phelps
Oh, Kate, you know as well as we do that you have a new cat, lol.
Kai
Happy Tuesday! Got a lot of rain yesterday, but today the sun is out.

I went over to our discount store this morning. Was looking for a compact little cabinet. They have always had so many today I found 2. One was to BIG for the spot and the other one hated the color……………. BUT color can be changed so I got smaller one that fit the spot. Started to paint it, will finish tomorrow.
Ken Ohl
I’m hoping for a great week which just depends on how my wife is doing
Ken Ohl

heather
Just getting ready to make some breakfast here. Planning on having a nice quiet Sunday here lots of eating and being lazy.
Jill Y.
I haven’t been able to fall asleep. I had a restless leg, and now it’s about time I would/should be getting up. The Oregon, Oregon State football game did not go the way I had hoped, but I did find out the PAC-“12” is rebuilding. The dogs are still silly and playful at times. Sometimes I wonder if one of them has picked up habits from the cats. LOL
Tamra Phelps
There’s not a lot going on here. I started going back to the lymphedem clinic, hopefully it will get rid of some edema fairly soon. Honestly, I just want some quick results for once, lol.
Kate Sarsfield
Aw, bless you! You should know by now that nothing happens when you want it to. Have a good rant/cry/screaming session, whatever helps, then deep breath & carry on.
Polly Hall
Did some grosery shopping, rock hunting and fixed dinner.
Shelly Peterson
I went to Costco this morning. Not much else going on today.
gloria patterson
Just as I started on this last night I got company…………….. they didn’t leave till almost 10.
Friday trip to Krogers then to Walmart got my High Dose Flu vaccine and new Covid shot.
After they left I realize how much both arms hurt. Apply heat to them for a while then took some tylenol.
This morning no pain in my arms. But I have done a kate…………. leaned back in the recliner and 3 hrs later opened my eyes. So I have NOT done much at all today
Jill Y.
Just watching college football right now. Oregon State vs. Oregon.
Kate Sarsfield
Really weird weather today. Misty & humid outside, cold as anything inside! Anyway, did a bit of decorating & housework. Think I’m coming down with something; coughing & sneezing all day.
gloria patterson
Kate it is that time of the year ………………….. HOT / COLD / HOT / COLD Hope you have some cold stuff available just in case

More rain so no workmen! Cats & I had a very lazy morning then I caught up with stuff I should have done yesterday. I found Mum’s old phone & managed to get it to work, copied out all my contacts etc. & now just charging it (hasn’t been used since 2020). My poor old phone was Dad’s & just hasn’t been the same since I dropped it in a bucket of water back in June. Then scrubbed the bathroom & cat litter box, cleaned the fridge & had a nap! Last night the temp dropped to 1C (33F) so put another blanket on the bed. The UK had snow but just frost here.
gloria patterson

Well…. today I can barely move pulled something in my neck/back area. Man, this sucks getting older so now I need to stretch out before I vacuum the car? Now where is that heating pad???
cindy legg

Jill Y.
It’s been one of those days where I want to sleep all day. And I just remembered I forgot to take my prescription. Ugh. I think I need chocolate. LOL
gloria patterson
Therapy this morning, right now she has me scheduled out to mid October. And she suggested I talk to the Dr when I go in early October to extend it through October. I always knew that I was NOT that fit but just didn’t realize how bad. I have noticed I am getting stronger.
Left therapy and headed to McD ………………… been thinking about a BIG MAC for 2 days. It was so good! Then I did a kate and had a 3 hr nap
Tamra Phelps
I have a few doctors’ appointments tomorrow, the lymphedema clinic and a therapists meeting–but they should go fairly quick, so not to full of dread, lol. How is it almost Friday again so soon??
Polly Hall

Shelly Peterson
Not much going on today. I am going to run a couple errands.
Kai
Happy Thursday! Didn’t sleep that well during the night and I’m feeling tired today..
Kate Sarsfield
It’s raining non-stop today so the guys didn’t come. What have I been doing? Sleeping, of course! Making up for all those missed hours of sleep. Certainly feel better now, if a little guilty for being so non-productive. Never mind, my health’s more important than cleaning windows (always do them in the rain!)!
l p
the day is going well. it’s a rather dreich day here but not enough rain to stop my going out for appointments and groceries. enjoy your day. thanks
DeeAnn
a good day, eating leftover hoagie!
Anonymous
Watching Leave It To Beaver while I eat breakfast…why do Ward and June always communicate with each other but not the kids?
heather
Just found out that our internet provider is ending service in our area they suck at it anyway but I hate change. Now getting ready for a new modem and new service provider I have a lot of quesitons on installation day and am a little stressed about the whole thing.
Michele Soyer
A lot of info yesterday that changes our way of moving forward – to get our schedule D visas we have to do our paperwork through a Greek Embassy and there is no Greek embassy here in Trinidad – it is located in Caracas and we are not going there! so advice given was to schedule an appointment in the states so we are going to have to make a trip there before we do anything else….a little bit more complicated – yes – changes plans yes – will we pivot of course….
Ed
Had a good day. Looking forward to going to our Welcome Back meeting at CLC tomorrow night.
Rose
It was a nice day today, did get groceries. The town had a presentation for 9/11 remembrance and some promotions.
Polly Hall
I had an appointment at the dermatologist a few things frozen off but nothing that needed a biopsy.
Kate Sarsfield
The guys were here again at 8 and set to immediately. Don’t know how I managed it but I actually went back to bed & slept! Left them at it & headed to the rescue centre. Tough non-stop work. Some of the stray kittens have ringworm & I found a HUGE tick full of blood on one of them as well. Poor little things become anaemic very quickly if they have ticks, and can fade away very easily.
Before I left, I asked the men if they could possibly put up the name of the house up by the front door. It’s made of stone & too heavy for me to put up by myself. Pulled into the drive & there it was. Lovely feeling. I’d come home!
ps: the house name is ‘Corris’, the name of the tiny village in N. Wales were Mum was born & raised.
gloria patterson
Kate you have some nice guys working there!! The name of house stone Corris, did you have it made or have you had it for years???
gloria patterson
Needed a few things so quick trip to walmart…………………. OH while I am here I think I will get my shots…………. BUT I have on a jacket and long sleeve top………………… DECIDED I would get the shots next week with short sleeves.
So have not done and don’t plan on doing much
Kai
Happy Wednesday! Just having some coffee right now..
Elizabeth
Not sure what’s going on yet, to be honest…
Shelly Peterson
I am heading to dialysis soon. 9/11 Never forget.
l p
the day is going well. woke up to a very cold place. it’s all of a sudden become Fall. enjoy the day. thanks
heather
I was so thrilled when I woke up this morning and saw that it had rained woohoo! We soooooo need rain here it is way too dry.
Michele Soyer
Had a full day out yesterday – stood in line at the bank for over 2 hours….12 slots for tellers and only 2 working!!! they should be glad that i was in no frame of mind to complain to the supervisors – I know we are all supposed to use online banking but there are some things you must come in for.. so grateful that I did not feel dizzy ( been having a few dizzy spells lately ) then off to the lawyer, pharmacy, grocery and finally home! today we have a scheduled zoom appointment with our Greek lawyer..
gloria patterson
Michele tell us more about the Greek lawyer…………. What is he doing for you?? Do you have any time lines on when you need to be out?????? All kinds of questions LOL LOL
Alma Fisher
My favorite beverage is sweet iced tea and iced coffee.
Tamra Phelps
Have you seen a doctor about the dizzy spells?? Seriously, that can mean so many things…and iff it is something that needs treatment, better to catch it early before you get busy with the physical part of moving.
Athena Graeme
My favorite drink is iced lattes. On a hot day, sitting on the deck, decadence!
Jennifer Wilson
Was gone most of the day for an appointment. THis is one of our busy weeks. We have a lot of appointments in the fall and spring because our weather can be pretty bad in the winter. A teacher of mine moved to Buffalo and said their winters are mild compared to ours. 😮
Ed
Had a good day today. Hope everyone else did too.
gloria patterson
Had therapy this morning, not sure how long it will go on but I am scheduled twice a week till the end of the month. I will take all I can get.
I left home at 8:30 and it was only 39……………….. at 5:30 it is up to 81 put windows still closed.
I am not ready for cold weather
Connie: The Head Peanut
Gloria I’m not ready for cold either. How are you feeling now? Stronger?
gloria patterson
Connie I am feeling good!! But I am going to take all the therapy that I can get. I have found out that I don’t use my muscles……………. I AM LAZY!
They have me using and doing so many different things and I am doing some of them at home also.
Stronger ever day 🙂
Kate Sarsfield
The insulation guys were here at 8am & worked right through till 5pm. I’m so tired! They’ll be here again tomorrow.
I’m feeling very proud of myself today: because my phone is playing up I was afraid that I might fall back to sleep tomorrow (unlikely with all the hammering & drilling going on) but just in case I discovered that I can use the laptop to wake me up! Who knew!
gloria patterson
Kate It is surprising the things we learn about our tec equipment when we look around. What happens after the insulation is finished? I know a warmer home for you and the kids. BUT what else is planed?
Kate Sarsfield
After this team have finished, another will pump insulation into the exterior cavity walls, then da-da-de-da!, the central heating will be installed!
gloria patterson
Central heating you could almost get spoiled………….. BUT know you betting that you don’t stop using your stove. LOL
Tamra Phelps
Just in time for Winter!!! Good!
Connie: The Head Peanut
Well, ya taught me something. I didn’t know my laptop would wake me up.

Connie: The Head Peanut
We are cooling down here in Idaho. I’m not ready!
Elizabeth
Getting vaccinated later…never gotten flu and Covid shots together before, hope they don’t hit me too hard.
Connie: The Head Peanut
I am anxious to hear how you do. I have my double shot next week. Fingers crossed its easy.
gloria patterson
Connie
I have been getting double shots (flu/COVID) for several years never had any problems.
Elizabeth
I actually postponed them because I did something to my arm and figured the swelling might make it feel worse…oh, delays! I appreciate the kind thoughts and will keep ’em in mind in a week or two…7
heather
I am just getting caught up today reading old emails and doing stuff around the house. I have been running around like crazy for the past few days and so need a break.
Ed
Had a good day. Saw a couple real improvements in students I am working with.
Connie: The Head Peanut
That’s excellent!
Jill Y.
Congratulations, Maria, for winning August’s giveaway!
Polly Hall
Looking forward to dinner and cards with the girls tonight.
Kate Sarsfield
Up at 8am to let one group of contractors in. They moved the plumbing re. the outdoor tap and left. Then at 2pm the next team arrived to start their work. They’ll be wrapping the small extension (kitchen) with insulation. They’ll be back at 8am. They’re all lovely lads but I really missed my lie-in +/- naps!! I spent the day gardening. My farmer neighbour gave me some lupin seedlings! Love old-fashioned flowers (but so do slugs).
heather
Well, just got all four tires replaced on my car and the aalignment done so I feel much better. Man, let me tell you I will be making sure that I don’t run over anything and that my tires are all up to speed each month. It’s a great reminder to make sure you have towing, AAA, cell phone and a plan before this happen to you. Women need to be EXTRA careful!!!!!!!!!
Connie: The Head Peanut
Absolutely great advice!
Kai
Happy Monday! Don’t know where the weekend went..
Tamra Phelps
Am I the only one who seems to have allergies all the time? I mean, it’s not seasonal anymore. It’s every season, every day. Ugh.
Elizabeth
Hoping to go run some errands pretty soon…
Shelly Peterson
Well it’s Monday already. I’m back to dialysis.
gloria patterson
We were in the 40’s last night! Fall is coming early…………… At noon it is 62

DeeAnn

Michele Soyer
Had coffee this morning and i actually tasted it…now to see how much I can get done today before I start feeling tired…I guess I can’t shake fevers off the way I used to – oh well thats life…
Connie: The Head Peanut
Michele, taste returning is a good step. Hopefully you will feel 100% soon. You got some packing to do!
Jennifer Wilson

Kate Sarsfield
I had a very lazy morning then started to clear old paint cans, plant pots etc. from the back of the house where the contractors are starting work tomorrow. The summer (all 5 days of it!!!) seems to have gone 🙁 Back to old, windy, overcast weather.
Connie: The Head Peanut
Oh your having the fake summer like we had. I’m so happy contractor’s will be there tomorrow.
gloria patterson
I am being so lazy……………… Decided to see if any thing good on amazon prime to watch…..
ROAD HOUSE …………….. It was not bad BUT NO BODY can replace Patrick Swayze in those special movies. They should have named the movie something else.
Its noon and have been up since 6 and have done nothing……………..
Connie: The Head Peanut
I lounged in bed till 10. Now I’m REALLY feeling lazy.
heather
I am just get it going this morning. I had a tire blowout yesterday and it still has me stressed out and freaked out and tired.
Connie: The Head Peanut
Oh my gosh! Heather.
You okay? That would FREAK me out.
heather
Hi Connie, I am already still getting over it all so thankful that I wasn’t on the freeway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DeeAnn
today is a good day to stay bundledup, and snuggle with a good book or watch a cheesy movie. It’s quite chilly today!
Connie: The Head Peanut
Ackkk! I’m not ready for the cold yet. Although I’m ALWAYS in for a cheesy movie.
Rachel
I really like an ice cold coke. However, they aren’t a fizzy as they used to be so I rarely drink them anymore
Rachel
My day is going okay. The weather outside is a little windy and cold so I’m not sure if I’ll be able to do what I wanted to today.
Fran L.
My day is starting out to be pretty great. Listening to playlists by Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber and Chris Brown. Of course what’s a weekend without chores am I right?
Michele Soyer

Anonymous
Coffee is my favorite beverage.
Connie: The Head Peanut
Ahhhh I should have listed that first for me too! LOL I do neeeeeed my coffee.
Kate Sarsfield
It was another beautiful day today so I spent most of the day clearing the path around the house. The contractors are back on Monday to start insulating the exterior walls so they need space to move. I’ll finish it tomorrow. Finally finished painting the bathroom. Was just doing the bit around the window & had the paint bucket on the toilet seat. Bryn decided to join in & jumped into the paint. Somehow, I managed to get him (& keep him) in the sink & washed it off. Gave him a treat of grated cheese afterwards!
gloria patterson
Kate your kids make your life so INTERESTING!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
Connie: The Head Peanut
OHHHHHHHH Kate, your boys do keep you on your toes!
l p

Connie: The Head Peanut
I hope the the computer isn’t a bad fix. Either way I hope its better quick.
gloria patterson
I have done about NOTHING today. Did take the garbage out and put it down the shute. Also took a 3 hr nap
This is going to be a cool weekend the temp finally got up to 69 (at 5:35pm)
Connie: The Head Peanut
OH NOOOOOO I’m not ready for winter. NOT YET!! I do like the nap part though.
Polly Hall
Hot Tea is my favorite beverage.
Connie: The Head Peanut
I love a cup of Sleepy Time before bed. YUM!! I’m still a coffee girl in the morning.

Happy Saturday to you. I am just getting caught up on my favorite podcasts.

If you enjoy listening to stories that are strange, dark and mysterious then check these out. I will put the links in this message of my three must hear podcasts.

Well it has been quite a few rough days. The agreement for sale is done and dusted so moving on!!! But a 102 – 103 degree fever has been the course of the past few days- it finally broke but I feel like 40 miles of rough road..lol…Trying to just get up and function….could not even have my coffee – no taste…so onward and upward but I have to take it easy until the heavy cough and chest pain eases up.. hope you all here are doing well!
gloria patterson
THAT IS SO WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OF course NOT that you are sick. How much time do you have before you have to be off the property?? Have you got stuff in the works???????
Tamra Phelps
I was starting to worry about why I hadn’t seen you commenting lately. I’m glad you’re feeling a little better. And so happy that the sale has gone through!
Kate Sarsfield
Oh, I’m glad you’re feeling better & so relieved about the sale! Can’t get over how quickly things move over there. My place took 6 months from sale agreed to getting the keys.

Connie: The Head Peanut
OUCH on the car. I am with you. GET THIS ELECTION OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Day is going good. I just made a bean salad, that came out pretty good. Looking up info for flu and Covid shots. It is dark earlier and also doesn’t get light as early, seems like it just started!
Polly Hall
I got some house work done today it’s hard after being on vacation for so long to get back into it.
Connie: The Head Peanut
I haven’t gotten back into the house work mode yet. I have way, way way too much to do. I need a good kick in the tush to get started.

Felt kind of overwhelmed and anxious earlier, so I’m just trying to get back on an even keel…
DeeAnn

heather
I am preparing for another baking hot day here. Yesterday it was 105 degrees here. I knew when it was like 91 degrees at 11:30 am that it was going to be a scortcher. I am beyond ready for the fall weather. Dear Lord please send rain – love Heather
Kate Sarsfield
YIPPEE!! Today’s temp will be 73 degrees!!! That’s the warmest so far this year in my little part of the World. To Hell with decorating, it’s off into the garden I go!
Jill Y.
My day went well. My feet are sore from standing for eight hours, but work was otherwise fine. Those last four hours, though, went slowly.
Jennifer Wilson
The mechanic is finally looking at our car tomorrow. I’m wondering how I went 50+ days in the house during lockdown. I haven’t been out of the house in 4 days and am getting antsy to go to Sheetz for my Diet Pepsi. 🙂
Ed
Had a good day. Just got back from a volunteer appreciation BBQ tonight.
Clem

Shelly Peterson
Today was very busy. I had a lot of errands to run.
Polly Hall
I use online grosery shopping from our local store with pickup. I went to pick them up and found out the my computer had changed my pickup location to a store 45 Min. away. They were nice enough to let me cancel that order and I then reordered at our store that is only 10 min away.
Rose
I’m not all that adventurous I guess, my fav beverage is coffee!! with 2% milk. The one thing I try to make sure I don’t run out of the coffee or the milk for it!!! I shudder to think of a day without it!!!
Rose

heather
I am making my grocery list as the moment. I pretty much get the same things when grocery shopping but this time I have some items that I’m sure I won’t remember. It is so crazy how blank my mind goes when grocery shopping. I just want to get in there and get out a soon as I can grocery stores make me nervous these days.
Kate Sarsfield
Had a good night’s sleep and we’re due no rain for 5 days so I should be up and working through my to-do list. Instead, I’m still lounging in bed having breakfast at noon! I’ll get a load of washing done including duvet covers which are a bitch to do by hand and then just potter about for a bit.
Ed
Had a good day. My first day working as an EA.
Jennifer Wilson
I’m hard at work for the items I am crafting for the raffles at pignic. (Picnic but guinea pigs come as well.). I’ve known for a year it is coming up, and did I do any work on the items in the last year? Noooooooo. Why would I? I have plenty of time, right? Well, it’s this month. (gulp)
Connie: The Head Peanut
Jennifer YOU and I are kindred spirits. I have 3 (THREE!) Christmas craft fairs in November…. am I ready? noooooooooooooooooooooooooo Gotta get busy. Maybe Monday? LOL
Jennifer Wilson
I adore Diet Pepsi. I have a 100 oz refillable mug and nothing beats a Diet Pepsi from Sheetz. It’s only 99 cents to fill it up. So if I win this month, I’ll choose Sheetz in honor or my Diet Pepsi. 😀
Tamra Phelps
Feeling a little blah today. Edema is making me feel bloated, so that’s an ush feeling. And I slept way too late today, lol. So, overall just not feeling it today.
Connie: The Head Peanut
Tamra, I hope you’re all better now. BIG HUGS!!!
gloria patterson
This has been a really lazy day………….. do a little bit then in recliner leg up for a hour
Last time I ended up taking a 3 hr nap LOL Sounds like Kate lol
Kate Sarsfield
The rescue centre is full up. Kittens, cats & puppies galore. One poor cat was left at the gate last night in a box with food & water. She’s been shaved all over but, of course, we don’t know why or her history. The CCTV showed the car & driver but so far no news from the police as to who the driver is. So 3 of us cleaned up & fed 65 cat & kittens & 15 dogs & pups. Well & truly worn out!
gloria patterson
WOW Kate you guys are so great!!!! That sounds like it needs a few more pair of helping hands
Tamra Phelps
Poor cat! Why on earth would they shave her? Maybe a skin disorder? But then you’d be able to see that…
Kai
Happy Wednesday! The sun is peeking out after some rain this morning.
Elizabeth
