Jon Adams = jondude; Joan Dobbs was Red Impala Eddie, do you plan to remove their blogs? Once in a while I think about posts by others & like to go back to see if can find the one I was thinking of. After Jeri died I copy/pasted all her old posts into a word document along with the nearly daily messages we exchanged. 15 years of back & forth. I indexed it in Word to make a story of Jeri's life.
Yesterday I color coded my various pairs of reading glasses for strength - acrylic paint on the inside of the ear piece. I have lots so there's always a pair where I need it - in the cars, in the emergency go bags, in my luggage, purse, the sewing room. I picture asking someone to bring me a pair of readers, and they bring the wrong strength. There's no way I can read in bed with the weaker strength that I use for driving or computer.
One time, and I don't know why I did it, I took enough niacin to experience one of those flushes, but it didn't last that long.
I keep thinking I'm going to post more here, but I don't do all that posting on Facebook, either. I read in a local obituary of a woman I didn't know that one of her hobbies was playing Rummikub online. That's how I've been passing the time when I need to veg out.
My gosh! I'm surprised there wasn't a smell. And wondering what was the deal with her husband that he didn't call for help when she disappeared - dementia? So often, we get some answers & it brings up a whole slew of new questions.
Oh, that sounds wonderful!
Thanks Martin.
Congrats! I'm pleased to hear of some program that helps someone I know.
I agree about Charlize Theron. Thanks for the reviews. Hope you are doing okay.
I think about how 'Christmas' cactus used to be such a big deal to people that it bloomed and it was around Christmastime so they acted like it was some kind of a miracle that it was so smart, and then it sounds like different varieties came along that have longer blooming times, and finally people figured that out like you did, and it's not all about Christmas. But it is nice to have flowers in the middle of winter.
And this reminds me, I should have asked my sister-in-law for one of her mother's plants when she cleaned out the house. Maybe she has them at home, and it's not too late.
I wish we had family get togethers because there's always interesting stories, and the best ones are told in person.
Those are really cute. Once in awhile I try to make potholders, and it's always more of a challenge than I expected, especially getting the loop to come out where I want - these here seem to solve some of that, tack them to the outside.
