Changing plugs and wires on a 1999 Chev Suburban. It is misfiring badly and nobody can work on it for a while. Did 5 out of 8 so far. They are difficult to get to and I have to lay on top of the engine area. Hope this solves it as other issues might really cost a bit to fix! This is our "farm" truck but it really comes in handy when the snow is too deep for any other vehicle or I need to haul lumber or building materials.

Yeah, I sure hope that does it. If it's starting ok, it should.

I am vision impaired in one eye, and I have been since was a teenager. So this is not pinkeye. You know all that gunk that blows out of your nose? Well, my bad eye has similar gunk coming out of it. This is something that happens to...not often, but when the sinuses are hosting a really bad infection. I actually have a flushing procedure that I'm to do, as needed. If I don't flush it, the gunk gets tacky, and glues my eyelid shut...if I force it open (instead of flushing), it usually bleeds a little bit. Happily, I do not need often.I

Thank you for your concern! Hugs!! 💗

Wimpy? Nope, I think you are rather tough, considering. I deal with sinus, not a picnic. 🤗

Hello my friends!

Latest update: the sinus infection has moved into my bad eye. I have been up for an hour, and I have already flushed it out 3 times! 😲

It could be worse, it could be in the other eye. Even so, it takes a long time for me to read and post. I have not been able to read my book, but I have been somewhat keeping up with everyone here, (as much as I can) even though I'm not posting much.

My goal is to not take any more cold med until after my bloodwork on Fri....we'll see how I do with that!

My only project for today is to make a big pot of Lentil Soup. Other than that, I expect to lay around and do absolutely nothing!

I'm sorry to sound like such a "Debby Downer!" After all, it's just a sinus infection! And yet, to hear me whine about it, you would think that I'm dying...I guess I'm just a big wuss, when it comes to being sick!

All of you have been so kind and supportive! I appreciate and love all of my SF friends! Thank you all, for caring!

In his most professional manner (not going to throw colleagues under the bus) he said, “well, there is a difference of opinion on the source of the pain”. Understatement of the year! 😂😂.

I am glad you posted an update. I was searching for one from you!
And gosh yes, his wording was gentle and careful, but at least he was honest!;)

I too am very glad you can use all of your expertise, and caring, to advocate for him. And glad he is able to eat and feels better!(y):)

Sunglasses, too, but that was 1 of 3 pairs. I don't carry cash in my wallet, I carry it in a pocket that's inside my front pocket.

This happened to us as well, husband lost his wallet in the hospital ☹️. When your cards are replaced don’t forget to change the cc number on any accounts you bill auto every month. We bill everything to our cc except rent. Only have to pay two bills that way. Much easier.
 
Finally ordered a tread mill from Amazon, the smallest one I could find. I just can’t spend another winter walking outside. It’s supposed to be delivered at the end of October but delivers have been really slow lately so it will probably take longer.

Its supposed to snow Saturday. A light dusting in the valley but right on time as it always snows at the end of October.

Just a quick hello to let you know that I'm still alive. I've been under the weather, but I'm ok.

Tomorrow, I was supposed to have my annual bloodwork done (at Dr's office), then go for a mammogram (at hospital). I'm sick enough that I rescheduled my bloodwork for Fri. Can you imagine what my test results would look like with all of that cold medicine in my system!!

Anyway, I'm not looking forward to the mammogram, but I have been putting it off and rescheduling it since the spring. Time to get it over with

Good night everyone!

Feel better, @Trila. Gosh, I love that frog.
 
Walked to the supermarket this morning, napped a couple of times and watched T.V. I got a return call this evening from one of my first and favorite online friends (we call each other Sis) and we talked until her daughter called. She just got back from visiting her daughter. who had been in a terrible accident in Florida. She's blessed to be alive, thanks to a good samaritan who pulled her out through the front windshield. He held onto her and prayed hard, my friend said. He stayed with her until the ambulance came. Seeing a picture of the car, I never would have thought anyone survived. I'm so glad she didn't lose this daughter because one of her daughters passed a few years ago. Given the situation, we talked about miracles and earth angels.

Sure hope she recovers quickly. Sounds awful
 
It's light outside now and looks like the flower garden suffered no or very minimal damage. Woohoo. I'll go out later when it warms up a bit and do a walk-around.

Change bed linens, empty litter box, carry out trash, dress, eat something besides cookies. It's gonna be a full day:ROFLMAO: Hope all that can get done before 3 when I need to be at doc's office for Covid booster.
 
Yesterday……got my haircut.
Had my front and back yard leaf clean up and mowed…..hired it done…..tried doing it myself, but I guess I’m not over the phemonia enough yet, the job is done…..$180.00 later, that’s okay, did a good job. I’ve never hired that done in my life.

Started my search for moving companies……better news than I expected, cheaper than I thought it would be.
Will search several companies for comparisons.
Seemed a bad day for melt downs, but today is another day.

Good morning! I started this post last night, because, well.....I was actually feeling good enough to do it. Hey! I even read my book for about 20 minutes last night. That's the most I've read all week!
emoticon


Of course, I always feel the worst in the morning. I guess the infection gets to build up overnight. But, on the plus side....I actually slept last night!!! Even my shoulder didn't keep me up. I could really get used to that!
emoticon


So now, I'm having my coffee, waiting for the Dr's office to open. Since I'm going there tomorrow for my blood draw anyway, I've decided to see if one of the APN's can fit me in. I think it's time for some antibiotics. 💊

My Lentil Soup was a success yesterday, although I had a few kinks to work out. I actually used my crockpot for the soup!!!! I bought that thing years ago, and I think I only used it 2-3 times. (Don't judge me! You know how I love storing things!
emoticon
) Well, I decided that it was time to either use it, or get rid of it! The only problem I had was that it's only a 4 qt crockpot. There was not enough room for the shell pasta. I had to make that separate, and add a little to each bowl. After we each had some, I was able to fit it into the crockpot and it all worked out!
emoticon


Well, it has gone below freezing, two nights in a row....bye bye to all of my flowers and vines that are outside! 😢. I'm glad that I potted a few of my favorites (and brought them in) before I got sick. Tomorrow, our high will be in the 80's! I'll sure like that! Maybe I can get out for a walk!

It's morning. Are you better today?

I haven't had a sinus infection in years...knock wood...but I remember the feeling, like if I bent over it felt like my face would fall off.

I live with sinus infections....just the way it is. 😢. This one, however, is one of the worst ones that I've had in a long time. Thank you for caring!
