How are you today?

i seem to be about over some sort of allergy. Research points to ragweed as a posible culprit. Yesterday someone asked if I like chamomile tea. No. I do not. There are very few things I dislike but chamomile is one of them.

There might be a connevtion. I was asked what it was made of. I looked it up and it comes from a flower similar to a daisy. On the pros and cons of the tea it suggested that one who is allergic to ragweed should not drink it. Am I allergic to chamomile?

So far I've avoided most of the possible side effects of my current cancer infusion therapy. However fatigue is hitting me big time. My Doc said it would be a fatigue that no amount of sleep or rest would alleviate and boy was he right. Thank heaven for my recliner.

Wonderful that you avoided most of the side effects. Glad you have a recliner and I hope it doesn't go on too long

Darn it, this disease and its cures are evil.

Yes, and this treatment isn't even a cure. Its just palliative.

The only cure would be total bladder, prostate and local lymph system removal and then living with a shunt and piss bag hanging on my belly. The bag would have to be changed multiple times a day.

The route I'm on just delays death for an unknown period lof time but gives me a reasonable quality of life until the disease takes me.

I wish a cure would appear for you Llynn. 🍁
 
I am in pretty good health, but yesterday I was replacing my neighbor’s 3-way wall switch for their lights in the family room when I accidentally touched the ground wire to the hot wire and got a good jolt of 120 volts. I never flip the circuit breaker off to work on wires, but from now on, I will. I have been jolted before, but maybe now that I am older, it effected me more than before. Do you think? Usually it’s no worse than being stung by a bee.

Better now that the power's back on. The entire neighborhood was out for about an hour and a half today and it's still hot here in Central Florida. Luckily, it came back on sooner than Duke Energy projected.

AT&T has been digging up the neighborhood the last week or so to install fiber-optics and I strongly suspect it had something to do with that. Maybe, maybe not but then I have a suspicious nature...LOL.

I guess it's just in training for the October hurricanes....

It sounds unpleasant but maybe it reboots ones electrical system. Lets hope it does and all is well.
 
I'm still alive and kicking. Trying to decide what to do with my car. Its 20 years old and very rusty underneath and has some things that need fixing. A part of me wants to junk it for 200.00.

I have to make a decision soon before my birthday when the registration has to be renewed by. I'm wondering if I do junk it is Lyft good? Someone told me they use them with no problems.

Our power was off for a time the other day. Yesterday I was in the attic and I thought "Oh this would be a terrible time for the power to go off!" There'd be no light to walk towards. Lucky it's a small area I'm in up there. I think I'd make it. 😊
 
It's nearly half past seven in the evening and it's dark outside.

Today I went to the Bank and then I walked around the shops. It was such a lovely bright day and it got really warm a bit later on.

I bought two tops which I don't need but, they are so pretty and, after my clothes clear out, I have lots of space 🤭 To be honest, if it hadn't been so warm today, I might have been tempted by a pair of boots but, I decided to be sensible as, honestly, I have far too many boots already!

I was just going to head off home when I saw one of my friends and we ended up sitting in the sunshine, drinking coffee and making plans for our Christmas ladies' lunch - Christmas! can you believe we are heading for Christmas already???

When I got home, there was a chicken dinner all cooked and ready for me :)

It's been a really nice day. I hope you have all had a nice day too x
 
Yay. Better than yesterday. I'm getting there...almost back to my regular self.

I got up at the butt crack of dawn and made sausage/egg/cheese biscuits for the home crew and for DD to take to her boss and co-worker at her Thursday work-away-from-home job.

Going to the city to visit DS and his husband. DS's 64th birthday today. How did I get old enough to have a kid that old?
