From Every Good Boy Deserves Favour, Nice To Be Here, my all-time favorite Moody Blue song:


Nice to be here hope you agree
Lying in the sun
Lovely weather, must climb a tree
The show has just begun
All the leaves start swaying
To the breeze that's playing
On a thousand violins
And the bees are humming
To a frog sat strumming
On a guitar with only one string
I can see them they can't see me
I feel out of sight
I can see them they can't see me
Much to my delight
And it seems worth noting
Water rats were boating
As a lark began to sing
The sounds kept coming
With Jack Rabbit loudly drumming
On the side of a biscuit tin
I can see them they can't see me
I feel out of sight
I can see them they can't see me
Much to my delight
Silver minnows were devising
Water ballet so surprising
A mouse played a daffodil
A mole came up blinking
Underneath an owl who's thinking
How he came to be sat on a hill
I can see them they can't see me
I feel out of sight
I can see them they can't see me
Much to my delight
I know you won't believe me
But I'm certain that I did see
A mouse playing daffodil
All the band was really jumping
With Jack Rabbit in there thumping
I found that I couldn't sit still
I just had to make it with them
Cause they played my kind of rhythm
And the bees hummed in harmony
And the owl played his oboe
Then the frog's guitar solo
It was all just too much for me
I know you won't believe me
But I'm certain that I did see
A mouse playing daffodil
All the band was really jumping
With Jack Rabbit in there thumping
I found that I couldn't sit still

I wanted a mouse playing daffodil tattoo but couldn't find the right design so instead got Jiminy Cricket playing a violin.

Saw them in concert many years ago.

I placed an order for deodorant for me and my son on Ebay in the middle of the night. Glad I did it then because they only had three sets left and I ordered two sets. The brand is Native, my first foray into stick deodorant o decades and it is awesome. Amazon charges $12.97 + tax for one. A couple of months ago, I ordered two from Amazon and decided to see if I could get a better price. Ebay had them in sets of three for $24.15 + tax. (because I purchased two sets).

I washed clothes in the apartment this morning, put away laundry from last week and some of today's. After drying the clothes, I took care of the dishes. My son picked up some items from Walmart for me after work and I put the refrigerated items away. SOS the rest of the day.
 
Can't believe I'm still sick. My job this morning, take a shower. I know that seems easy, but I'm dreading it. I will be very glad when it's over and I'm clean.

Son/grandson coming over. Need to see them, absorb some energy, feel some love.

Remember son saved our Buffy's life six years ago. Son new father. Yet had the time and love for Buffy. I will never forget this. Must tell him. Must thank him.

Yesterday my old HP printer finally died while I was gathering information for my income tax.
....

Someone raised that kid right!

Doesn't something like that happen when you are all set to file your taxes...and the printer croaks out on you.
I started to do our taxes; I bought the Turbo Tax via Staples on the internet, and went to download it and it told me my computer was too old, needed the newer operating system. So I had to buy a new computer! Geez...figures.

Someone DID raise that kid right!

Don,

Do you think that supplemental oxygen, would help?

Talk to your PCP!

Hoping you find some relief!🤗
 
Update: Yesterday's visit to the cardiologist. I am officially part of the "Abdominal Aorta Aneurism Club". Had a CT scan with contrast. Got the exact measurements. Have been included in the "measure and watch" category. My numbers were good and no problem yet. They schedule a new measurement in 6 months. So all is very good. :)

Did they check because you were experiencing symptoms? If so, what are they?

No symptoms. I smoked for 20 years, and my age makes it recommended for males/not females ( covered by Medicare). Weird. What are symptoms of an abdominal aneurysm ?

What are symptoms of an abdominal aneurysm

Symptoms of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) can vary depending on whether it is unruptured or ruptured:

### **Unruptured AAA Symptoms:**
- Persistent or severe abdominal or back pain[1][2][7].
- A pulsating sensation near the belly button[3][7].
- Steady, gnawing pain in the abdomen lasting hours or days[1][5].
- Poor circulation in the feet or legs[5].

### **Ruptured AAA Symptoms (Medical Emergency):**
- Sudden, severe abdominal or back pain, often described as "tearing"[3][6].
- Dizziness, fainting, or loss of consciousness[2][6].
- Clammy, sweaty skin and rapid heart rate[5][8].
- Nausea or vomiting[2][8].
- Pale or grey skin tone[4].

Seek immediate medical attention if symptoms suggest a rupture.
 
Clear, sunny, in the 50s here today. We helped our daughter walk some dogs this morning (she takes care of dogs as a side business) and I did some drawing for my class "homework." We are thinking about going to see the Bob Dylan movie this afternoon, has anybody been?

You want to see crime and outer space just watch cooking shows.
 
It is relatively balmy out there. SO let the hot tub drain last night. He scrubbed and refilled it this morning. It is heating up. Whole house water softener so it will feel like breaking in a brand new rain barrel tonight. Prosecco!

I have an old fashioned cheese ball in the fridge. Nicely divided into small canning jars with lids. No left overs, no digging around. Should I make pretzel balls to go with it?

No housework but the very basic necessities!!!

Thanks for checking in, @Paco Dennis, and so far, so good. You were on my mind.

Took shower. Wearing clean clothes, in particular a shirt I haven't worn in 20 years. It's lacy. I remember I named it! Kendall, after the soap character it reminded me of. Still sick, but clean. I'm a woman, but this fits:

I think the joke about ''being clean'' was because that is wilfred bramble who was notabe for his role as Albert Steptoe... a ''Dirty old man ''.. Steptoe and Son in the 60's and 70's

 
Shoveled the driveway... again. All these little "nuisance" snowfalls of 3 and 4 inches are getting to be annoying. I try to look on the bright side and keep telling myself, "It's good exercise." or "Be happy you're not at the old house where you had to shovel a 30 foot sidewalk down to the public sidewalk, the shovel a 50 feet there of impacted frozen chunks the street plow threw there, then shovel a 30 foot back sidewalk out to the 1000 sq foot driveway, then the driveway and then the garage door facing the back street where the village plow made 6 inches into a 4 foot pile if snow." (see photos)
