Sounds like a good thing to have done, but what method to try,
in order to attempt to interest someone else in doing something?

Show them online photos of how nice and how much safer they are!
Well-placed grab bars and shower seat, hand-held shower head attachment.

With a little light, you can grown a refreshing green fern, like the Asparagus fern in there. How I wish I had a shower zone like that!

Is there a newer or additional shortage I wasn't aware of?
Went to the grocery store, and nearly every item I needed had very few of the items left. Ranged from eggs to canned corn.
I didn't notice this the last time I was there- a little more than a week ago.
I ended up accidentally buying 1% milk because there were so few gallons of milk in the refrigerated section that I picked up the wrong one by mistake.

On a positive note, I'd noticed online that their Luna bars were on sale... so I bought the entire display box of my favorite flavor. :)
 
I went on my early walk this morning at 6:15,birdies woke me up even though I had the bedroom fan on.I couldn't get back to sleep
I watered the plants in our community garden when I returned
This morning,I'll be calling Canopy of Neighbors members to see how they are doing
Its been 4 months since I started calling from home,as much as I love doing this,I'm hoping within the next couple of weeks when Phase 4 begins in WNY our office will reopen. Its located in the back of local Jewish Temple.I miss being with Sasha{exec director} Wendy{vol director} in the office Mon/Tues mornings. We have to wait until they decide its ok to open
 
Well it's a glorious sunny day here... I'm feeling better after I fell a couple of days ago on the concrete step, and cracked my cheekbone, ( lots of cuts on my nose and face, but my eyes were saved by my expensive sunglasses which miraculously didn't break, £300 well spent) and scraped up all my knee and shoulder.. . the pain isn't anywhere nearly as severe as even just yesterday ..although I can't lift the left arm very high because the torso muscle all down the left side is too painful..(same side as the damaged shoulder) ..however I'm nothing if not stoical ..and I've been out this morning and trimmed back the Ivy that grows up one of the poles in the garden .
.it'\s such a beautiful day and I find it difficult to just sit for very long reading, or something.. I need to be doing something ..anyway that's as much as I can do for now, so I'll go back out with a drink and a crossword.. and just rest

Forecast is for temps in the 90's for the rest of the week.. hoping that my shoulder will free up so I can drive tomorrow or Wednesday...

Sorry about your fall, Holly!
 
Sorry about that fall you took, @hollydolly !:oops::(
Onto that very hard, unforgiving surface!
Try to fall against something a bit softer, next time? :confused:

I am glad your :cool: helped to protect your eye!
I hope you heal quickly.....

Lovely to hear about the cardinals, @RadishRose !

I see some, here, too. What an enjoyable sight they always are!
The adult males also help to tend the moms and the young, which is nice to think about. :)

I actually did crack my head...in all honesty pinks, I thought it was the end.. I landed right on my face.. and it all happened in a second.. , I heard and felt the thud of my head hitting the ground.. but my oversized sunglasses protected me from the worst of it as it turned out...but yes if I'd fallen backwards it would have been probably a whole different story.. :confused: I'm very lucky to have survived it as well as I did.. but my cheekbone and my knee hurt the most... ..

My knee....

My shoulder...

Are we going to have to wrap you in bubble wrap?

That's a very good idea. Let me know when, and I'll help.
While let's be sure to have someone videotape. And take care, that we do not drop her or cause any further injury, while trying to get the wrap just right... :ROFLMAO:

Very rational suggestion though, especially as after that, she went out to trim a vine growing up a pole.... :rolleyes::LOL:

See? @Sliverfox
Bubble Wrap, it is! (y)

Sorry, Holly. We'll let you know how long .....:whistle:;):ROFLMAO:
 
Aw, @hollydolly
Holly, if it makes you sad, we will not do it. Just take good care, please.

I apologize, if i took the silliness too far! :confused::cry:

Sliverfox may have thought the vine snagged and tripped you, i don't know.

@hollydolly I hope you're healing goes well, I know it's even harder for some to heal as we get older. My best to you💐💜
