Got brain MRI results yesterday, and as I predicted was inconclusive as to why I shake sometimes, and sometimes badly. My head shaking right now, tho not my hands. Not Parkinson's. No major strokes. No tumors. BUT. Seems I had a stroke within the last six years since last MRI done. It was small, doc said, and is not the cause of shaking but perhaps explains balance problems. Normal brain for an old lady in terms of wear & tear.

Got rattled & depressed to learn I had a stroke. Makes me feel even more vulnerable than I already do.

Oh my. Are you ok? Did your doctor give you any type of prescription to help with the shakes?

Hello, friends.
I've been missing all of you and wondering what you are each up to, recently; and wanted to drop by to let you know that I am still okay, and so is hubby, despite our difficulties in recent months.

We managed to get to our medical appointments this week, though it was an extremely draining week.

I have also had to work on some difficult financial issues that I haven't yet been able to resolve.

Yesterday I had a crazy-difficult 'conversation' regarding it, with something over the phone, that I kept wondering if it was a person, overtrained to sound like a computer; or if it was a computer overtrained to sound like a human.
Yikes!!!!

I felt feelings that it would be too rude of me, to directly ask if I was speaking with a robot, or with the most advance version of AI that I have ever encountered, or rather, with an actual human. (just in case it was a human)

It was likely computerized, but so advanced that it felt disturbing to me, and very confusing overall. I didn't expect to have to rely on interactions like that, as soon as this.

Have others of you already encountered systems so sophisticated that you couldn't be certain?

I did not enjoy it, and, I never could get my important questions answered, by them, regardless of which it was. 🤔😑🙄😲😱😳

Today I tried to relax myself and take some small mental and emotional breaks from the stressors. I managed a nap, and together, we then repacked some salmon peices for the freezer, in easy-to-cook portions.

The weather here in New England is transitioning toward autumn, with the first parts of bright colors, showing up in the trees, outside my window.
Saw cardinals at the birdfeeder today, too.

I'm saying hello to all of you!
I haven't yet been able to read up here, on your latest adventures.

Oh my, @Kaila, I've been wondering about you! Especially yesterday you were really on my mind, I almost sent you a PM, and now... here you are, as if by magic!

Sorry about that financial matter you're having trouble with. Maybe ask to speak with someone else or a manager?

Good to know your medical appointments are in order. I hope you both are well. Hope you stick around, girl!

My leaves here in central CT aren't doing much of anything yet.

Enjoy your wonderful salmon. 🌹

Had rain this morning!

I thought there was an estate sale today.
Hubby read the ad & told me it's next weekend.

We went to local out door Farmer's Market.
Bought some apple cider.

Back home , fixed lunch, catching up on posts here.
Been giving away the extra tomatoes.

We have a trailer parked near the road,, set tomatoes & zucchini in box out there.
They seem to disappear.

@holly, sorry to read the flat didn't work for you.

Oh gosh, @hollydolly That place sounds awful. And depressing on top of the specific down-sides of it.
At least you went and looked, so you don't have to wonder if it would have been fantastic.

@RadishRose That meal sounded wonderful. Worth the difficulties, but yes, it's a lot to fuss with.
Yummy reward,though!

Sliverfox, it was nice to read your current day news. I used to love the nice farmers markets we have in our area, too, but I haven't been able to go to one, in years.
We still get some potatoes, carrots and zucchini, from a local farm. Can't find any better. Taste and freshness.

Thank to all who posted replies to my question about the most advanced AI.
 

Got up (again) at 5 a.m., cleaned the kitchen and bathroom floors, made salat (prayer) and started getting ready to go to Walmart. My son and I left before 6:30 a.m., so we got to enjoy sunrise on the way. I had my shopping therapy and we were home by 8:30. I watched a little TV and slept off an on during most the rest of the day. It is now 11:15 and haven't put the non-perishable items away yet. Since I'll be up for a few hours and intend to check some posts here, I'll probably wind up doing that after midnight.

@Kaila, it’s always lovely to see you hear. Enjoy those cardinals and coloured trees.

Got to a different farmers’ market today. This is my favourite time of year for vegetables. It was crisp this morning, lovely by the afternoon. Started putting an extra blanket on the bed. Brrr.

Only the photos time-stamped on or before Nov '23?

No. That's weird. Did you use a different phone after Nov '23? I still don't know why that would be, but maybe you need a different cable to transfer those ones. One that can handle more data. Your phone store could probly help with that.

Yeah, it is weird and yes, the phone place should know. Thanks

Whew. I had a bad feeling about it from the start. So now you've kissed the first frog. Let us hope that the handsome prince isn't too elusive.

Glad you're home. Put a cup of vinegar in your car overnight to take out the stink. In the morning the stink will be gone, but the car will smell like vinegar :ROFLMAO:

Or ground coffee. That works great for stinky refrigerators! 😊

Sorry about your troubles. 😒
I so miss New England in the fall. Let the colors ease your mind. 🍁
 
It's gonna be hotter today than yesterday, but relief might be in sight. The rain that was supposed to happen on Wednesday was moved to Wednesday night and has been moved again, this time to Tuesday night and all day Wednesday and Wednesday night. Our forecast is giving me whiplash!

No idea what's happening today. My hair needs to be blued again. There are gardening chores to do. And right now I don't feel like doing anything. Lemme wake up first. Coffee didn't seem to do the trick.

ETA: I forgot to wish y'all a happy fall! Actually, drop. When the leaves drop off the trees. It's now officially the season of Hallowthanksmas 🎃🦃🎄

Remember a while back when somebody on the forum set up a video call that we could join? I don't have a clue how to do such a thing and didn't participate that time because I was working or some such.

Anybody know how to do that? It was a link we could click on to join the conversation.

I'd be up for it if somebody would set it up.

I remember it but I can't remember who did it...
 
On my early walk at 6:50 it was a bit foggy outside as I walked twice a around the building complex, but was warm 68
This morning at 10,Bill{another Gates resident,lives around the corner from me}& I are being picked up from our close friend, Marcia going to our 10:30 church service. She's been doing this before I moved in,Bill has lived here for 2 yrs. Afterwards,I invited another church friend, Earl to come back with us to have brunch at noon in the dining room as my guests.He's thrilled,thanked me
The rest of my day read the local paper, talk with my brother,weather permitting, take another walk this afternoon
 
@Kaila, it's SO good to see you back. We were worrying over you. ❤️

When I don't know for sure what/who I'm talking to, I ask, "Are you a human?" When the answer is no, I ask to please be connected to a human. When the answer is yes, I say "Oh, thank goodness. I really don't like talking to computers."

Hope your situation can be resolved soon.
 
TGS spent the night and and arose before the roosters. As usual.

He nearly always wakes up in a good mood and today was no exception, so no complaints from me on his early-bird habit. I've had my share of children who were grumpy in the morning - I was one, myself - so a smiling boy is a welcome morning sight. Even at 6 AM.
