Good Morning, Kaila and Friends. 🤗:coffee:🌻

Going to be hot today at 89F/32C, but a 50% chance of rain is predicted so, I'm hoping for that. I'm perfectly happy to carry an umbrella along with my phone, doggie bags and the leash, while walking Lucius, if it means a break from the heat.

We had some lightning last night, but I went to bed before the thunder, if it ever arrived.

@Kaila, hoping your physical therapy and husband's lab work appointments go well today and you get some time to relax.

@Pam, Sorry about your tooth breaking. :( Good thoughts for you. 🤗
(Hey, I'm really glad your migraines stopped! That's wonderful.)

@CallMeKate: right there with ya; autumn is my favorite season! autumn leaves.jpg

Thanks, you guys, for the nice touchbacks about my migraine; 💙 I'm so happy the med. worked. Better living through chemicals, baby! :)

I have the dentist this afternoon. Just an exam and cleaning. I know I need a couple fillings replaced and maybe a couple more new ones, so I'm prepared to hear about that.

Hoping everyone woke feeling hale and hearty this morning. (And that Kate's coffee kicked in. ;) )

Good afternoon, Kaila and all. Hope you are all well. Good luck with the dentist @Medusa!

My youngest son came round today (day off work) and started stripping the last of the wallpaper off in my living room. We've only taken 12 months to get this far... :cool: All the other walls were stripped and painted last year but with our various ailments we haven't really been in the mood to tackle this final wall until now. That's our excuse and we're sticking to it. ;) It's only a small wall so it won't take long for him to fill in any small imperfections before painting.

After he left, I had an Amazon delivery of a small electric sander so I can now sand the small floor area by my front door. That shouldn't take 12 months to complete. 😂 I no longer care, there's more to life than having a perfect house.
 

@Kaila, wishing you an easy day.

Wash your mouth out with soap, young lady. I know what follows fall.

My saviour was the old-fashioned ergotamine. My migraines ended with menopause. Hallelujah. (Knock on wood)
 
I'm back from the dentist and, phew, my nerves are jangled! The visit went about as expected: x-rays, exam, cleaning. As I thought, four fillings needed, but not the ones I was thinking of! Well, one of them, I think.

The others are apparently fine and don't need filling, but rather Floride rinse at night.

I go back on the 29th (my 36th anniversary), for the first two and then one more appointment for the last two. I swear, at some point, my teeth are going to consist of more composite than, um, teeth material.

I could have had them all done at once, but yeesh, they're expensive so we broke it up to two appointments.

My afternoon coffee got nixed, sadly, because I'm already buzzing to my nerve endings. I really wanted that coffee, but it wouldn't be wise, today.

Hope you are all feeling well this afternoon and, @Kaila, that you're able to relax a bit.

I'm off to take Lucius for his afternoon walk. It's raining so I won't have to water him. :)

Carrots of caring to you all! 🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕
 
Thanks for those carrots, @Medusa
And for everyone's posts and updates above!

What a day it's been, here....🫤

After not having felt well yesterday, this morning was more difficult than usual, to get to p.t.

I did get there, though a little late which I don't do if I can possibly help it!

I did arrive, but my therapist wisely figured out that we could not do any physical exercises, today. We went over some strategies.....
and then, home I went, and managed to take dh to the lab.

Straight back home but unable to function much here, so I had to cancel other basic tasks, but oh well.
I hope I'll recover soon.

Meanwhile, I'm glad as always, to read each one of all of your updates.
I just wanted to leave a note here, for all of you.
 
Good Morning, Kaila and Friends. 🤗:coffee:🌻

My laptop underwent a system update overnight so I was signed out of everything this morning. All my "recents" and "favorites" are gone. Annoying. I didn't consent to an update. Don't I own this thing? :ROFLMAO:

It's going to be 89F/31.5C with a 70% chance of rain today. Not too bad. 🌞🌦️

@Kaila, it's wonderful that your physical therapist works with how you're feeling on a given day and adjusts accordingly. I'm so glad you have them. Great idea to go over strategies for use at home! I hope today is a restful one for you. 👽

@Pam, thank you for good wishes about the dentist. (Sorry I missed that earlier.) Hoping the wall stripping and floor sanding goes smoothly. Ha! See what I did there? ;)
Enjoy Wimbledon. :)

@CallMeKate, good thoughts for your busy day. :)

Hoping we've all woken up feeling good this morning. Wishing everyone a peaceful day.

Sorry you didn't get your PT but at least you went over strategies as you put it anything will be helpful so don't worry about your tasks, if you need to rest you need to rest and I'm sure you'll recover soon. I'm always thinking of you Kaila and wishing you strength.🥰:love:🥕🥕🥕

Good morning, everyone! You sure had a rough day yesterday, Kaila. 🥺 I hope that today will be a whole lot better for you and that yesterday is now tossed aside in the "bad memory" file and forgotten. I have an extremely busy day coming up, but first I have this delivery for the K-Posse.

Thank you. It doesn't seem like i can just toss the past 2 days into the bad memory file, delete and forget.
I surely would like to, but it's seeming more like a disappointing setback at the moment.

I hope i will recover faster that a setback, though.

Thank you @Fritz
For the reminder that it's okay and necessary to rest. 💗

Kate, that bunch of carrots made me laugh. 🙂

As did @Pinky
That ridiculous cat. 😁

Thank you for this encouragement too, and the extra🥕🥕🥕

@Medusa
And
@Pam

I hope you are both recovering from the dental appointments which are always so exhausting, I have found.
No matter what the specific procedures.

I will be having a series, of appointments for work on teeth that my dentist will be trying to save. Probably will start in August.
Waiting for my mouth to heal more, first.

Resting is my main activity today.
At least I don't seem worse that the previous couple of days have been.
Perhaps slightly improved. I sure hope so.

Medusa, are you actually getting any rain from those increasing percentages.?☺️
Enough to make those pots of peanuts happy?

Sheesh, my spell correction changed plants to peanuts. 🙄😵🤭

I left it for our general amusement.
No, I don't think we own these contraptions.
😉😊😁😄🥰🥰🥰

We got some rain yesterday and, according to forecast, there will be a storm around 6P tonight. So, I'll still need to water the peanuts this afternoon.

Glad you're resting today! 🤗
 
Good Morning, Kaila & Friends! Hope things turn around for you and get easier. I thought the hard part of life was getting to this age not after it. Oh well, we have to make the best of what we have now. Keep going one step at time. These hot months are always the tough on me but I will make it.

Good Morning, Kaila and Friends. 🤗 :coffee:🌻

There's only a 40% chance of rain today with a high of 83F/28C, but we did get the forecasted storm last evening. Yesterday was a bit like a sauna in the evening. But the peanuts are loving it!

I've just started following a few new podcasts, so I'll have lots to listen to while walking Lucius and doing things around the house. Gods forbid I'm alone in my own head. Nobody wants that. It's a clown car in there. :oops: 🤡

Hoping everyone woke feeling hale a hearty this morning. Wishing you all a lovely day.
