February 2020 ~ Tell Us About Your Day...

Sorry that you need to go back to have more tests, tomorrow, @hollydolly
We all hope it goes well for you!

@Lee I am wondering how your hand will be doing... I hope it gets better, quickly.
There are always these surprises, that add something we are not expecting, to our days, it seems.

I wonder what "new food" that @Pinky will bring home, today.
Or perhaps mainly, just more than usual, of some of the "old ones" that would fit in with the shifting goals.

Quiet day here. Icicles are all dripping water, as fast as they can, and each one letting go, when it's ready to fall. Drip, drip...drip...

Back and forth winter, it has been...sharp deep freezes for a few days and nights... followed by a few milder days....Very grateful for indoor heaters!
 

Went to the doc who suspects but is not sure that the bump on my hand is a ganglion cyst. She says they do not generally appear in that area of the hand, on top and between thumb and index finger.....actually she said it is a weird spot, her words, doctor terminology....weird :rolleyes:

Being sent for an ultrasound to make sure of her weird diagnosis.

But not a brown recluse spider bite, I did have that once, hopefully never again.

Gave up...had so much to do with analyzing insurance quotes - big deal, changing companies after 35 years!

Pizza, salad and veggies. Also did some weeding out front...it helps me think!

Tomorrow its grocery.
 
@Lee
I agree, that is weird that the doctor used the word weird, to describe the location.

She might have used so many other words for her comment... atypical, uncommon, unusual, or not typical... it's weird that she used weird.:sneaky:

The years of medical school and internships, didn't take the kid and the person, out of her.
That might be a good sign. But I am not sure. It sure is not typical. I mean...:rolleyes::ROFLMAO:

How long for you to wait for an ultrasound, ?
to attempt to confirm or 'de-firm' her guess, oops, I mean her diagnosis.
 
When I went on my early walk this morning around 6:45 was 33 refreshing no wind
This morning I have another PT appt for my knee
The pain I was experiencing back in Dec before I started going to PT has subsided.The exercises my therapist has given me is making the knee stronger, are part of my daily routine . I'm back to walking up/down stairs a couple times a day.The stiffness I feel some days is from the osterarthritis I have in the knee
The rest of my day,after lunch& short nap,go on afternoon walk,read my book
 
Wet and drizzly here today. Supposed to be like this with rain till tomorrow night. Hey, we need the rain! Going grocery shopping and back to the insurance quotes. Its hard to change insurance companies after 35 years, but business is business you know...lol. Having eggplant & spaghetti tonight for dinner. What about you guys? Keep safe!
 
Good Morning! 34 degrees here this morning. I will finally get to that laundry I have been putting off for days now. Every day I make out a list of what I have to do and the laundry was on it every day. I am prepping some vegetables and rice to have ready in the refrigerator for other meals. Making meatless stuffed peppers for dinner tonight. Have a good day everyone!
 
Hey @hollydolly ...

Good Morning Everyone...
I hope everyone's week started nicely yesterday, and now we are into it... It was very warm and mild here yesterday, think it's supposed to be the same for today... Caught a little cold from the Grandson the other day, got me down a bit, but we'll get through it...

Well, today is breakfast day with the boys, and then probably come home and do some work...

I got a GREAT program for doing taxes in Canada, and it's free, if interested, let me know and I will post it here next time, or send you a PM with the information... I used it last year, and it was 100 times better than anything I have bought in the past...

Well, Kids, I hope YOU all have a GREAT day... Be good, or good as YOU can... and God Bless YOU all...
 
Good Morning,
Well just had my healthy breakfast, and now heading downstairs to the tread machine... Gotta try and get in better shape... Had breakfast with the boys yesterday.. and did something, I am still pissed with myself about, backed the truck up to a cement block, put a good dent in the bumper, will try and fix it in the spring, or I can pick up a used one for $100. Was one of those days yesterday, I should not have left the property... Oh well... Not sure what's on the plans today as of yet...

Anyways Kids... I hope YOU all have a GREAT day... and God BLESS YOU all...

And oh yeah, another BIG snow storm tomorrow...
 
Good Morning! Sunny this morning! BF is bringing more hay for Rabbit today. This afternoon is Bingo downstairs in the tenants' community room. No money involved. Just for the social aspect. I don't usually like games but make myself go due to I stay in my apartment alone too much at times.

Hope you all have a good day!
 
We did go to Wendy's yesterday for a chicken sandwich etc....shopped little.

I had a gift card and with it I got a sweet little, shiny stainless steel kettle. I'm back to the pour-over coffee method and the kettle is prettier than a pot or even the electric hot pots.

He bought razor blades and some stuff for his hair.

It was a good day.
 
Thank you so much @mike4lorie for your best wishes..🧡. all went well yesterday with my exploratory tests at the hospital and I got my results as soon as they woke me . ... , and thank you to all who sent me PM's wishing me well.. you're all so kind.. .🥰 I'm tired and a bit sore today, but at least I'm home, and I can rest when I want.

Sun has been out all day although I've been indoors of course, but it's been quite cold... only an hour and a half now until it's dark...
 
Sad day today. We're using chain saws to cut up a 1948 Chris Craft that is too far gone to be restored. It's a shame to do it but the cost of restoration would be roughly 4x the value when completed. Better to sell the engine and hardware to help somone else with their restoration.

Sounds nice!

I was using instant and went back to the pour-over method.

The coffee is much better but it can be a tense five minutes waiting for the water to boil!
 
Today, it started snowing about 6AM, and now it's transitioning to rain. Then, a major cold front is expected, and we may see the coldest temperatures this year, over the next couple of day....might reach -5 early tomorrow morning, and only reach into the teens tomorrow afternoon. It looks like a couple of days of having to stay indoors....Shucks!
 
@RadishRose And @Aunt Bea
You both mentioned the "pour over method" of making coffee, so I looked that up....

It seems excellent. Do you use a ceramic or other material filter that is washable, and that fits directly into a mug?
Or do you still use paper filters?

Today I am enjoying seeing some wild birds out the window, on a calm day, before the next snow storm arrives.
I got more sleep overnight , than I had been able to, for some recent nights, and therefore I feel a little better, overall, this morning.
 
Hollydolly, hope your results were positive and everything turns out well.

It snowed last night, but it had gone by this morning. Drove down to Aberdeen to shop at Sainsburys (that's our nearest one). Found that the store was being re-modelled and everything was moved around. All the clothing was reduced, so Mrs. L and I bought some new things. They'll be nice for our holidays next month.

We ended up spending a fortune stocking up on the sherry and port that we can't get in our local stores. However, their beer was very expensive, so we didn't buy any there.

5.30 pm - sunset, no wind and the sky is clear. Forecast is for a hard frost tonight. We've got the fire lit and we're keeping warm.

I also use the "pour over method". Melitta (sp?) plastic cone sits on the cup, and paper filter fits inside it. We don't drink a lot of coffee, so, no need for a coffee maker.
