That is terrible, having an aide that does not speak English ! Can you call your son for help, or maybe your doctor and see if they can get you someone who speaks English, Pepper ? Saying prayers for you and sending you a HUG and much Love !

I agree with this about the use of chat AI to explain things for you about procedures, and do it in a simple, easy to understand manner, and answer any and all questions you might have. I use my iPad calendar for appointments, and have alerts set for doctor appointments, plus the doctors...

I have only ever knitted socks from the top down. I don’t remember ever seeing a pattern for socks made from the toe up. I enjoy working with different colors, and it makes the socks more unique, and keeps me from getting bored with knitting the same colors for the whole time. Just as an...

It is just the regular Red Heart Super Saver 4-ply yarn , like I always use, Dusty. Red heart just muted the colors, and does not have the bright ones on Amazon or Walmart either one now. I guess I had the first skein longer than I realized . Here is a picture of the two. They are very similar...

I just started making a pair of socks for my grandson, and realized that I didn’t have quite enough of the yarn that I was using to finish both socks; so I ordered another skein of the same color. I am not happy ! The color is Starburst, the same on both, but the first one was a vibrant color...

I am SO glad to hear this, and even happier that Pepper has actually made it home and can recover from there now. That in itself is awesome news, considering how things were going at the nursing home. Sending Pepper love and hugs, and prayers for a super easy and fast recovery ! Thank you so...

I have never done that, and don’t think I am likely to try it. I seldom drink Coke anymore (or any other kind of pop), but my favorite was always a cherry coke, back in the days when you could order them that way at the local hamburger drive-in.

Adding my prayers that @Pepper is doing okay, whether they had to keep her in the hospital or if she is at her son’s place for the holiday like she was hoping to be doing.

It sounds like they would have a hard time getting everything done without your help, @Tally , and they simply have not figured that out yet. Hopefully, it will help when you visit your friend this weekend and can chat about everything in a comfortable environment. As an aside, it looks like...

I love eggnog, but it is too rich to have much at a time for me. What i do is buy a quart of it in the holiday season and add it to my morning coffee instead of regular milk or cream, and sometimes I dilute it with milk and then it last longer.

He joined about a month after I did, so we have both been here a very long time, and you about a month after that. Sifu Phil was here ahead of me, and he was here until he passed away several years ago. Since Seabreeze was the moderator, she has been here since the beginning.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, @Pappy ! Hoping you had a wonderful birthday .

Back on topic of knitting socks…….yes, I really enjoy knitting socks. I never thought about asking for lobster (or any other gift ) for knitting socks, I just enjoy making them for my family, along with slippers. My English mother-in-law taught me how to knit back when I was first married (in...
