September 2019.... Please Share your Day...

Got up, to have some oatmeal, only to find the seal broken, under the lid. No way I'm eating it, so back to the grocery store, this morning. Then, back home to replace the clutch assembly on one of my chainsaws. After that, time to make soup with bok choy, tofu, carrots, squash, onion, rice noodles, soy sauce, roasted sesame oil, sweet and sour sauce, topped with baked wonton strips. After that, probably a little nap, with Max, then some practice on my band's tunes. Probably a little TV, then. Another day, another series of things to do. Gotta keep life interesting, right?

Treeguy: I love bok choy and the rest of your ingredients. That soup sounds delish. Other than the bok choy and wonton strips I have everything on hand to make it. A store run was in my plan today anyway, I'll pick up what I'm short and will follow your recipe lead.

Thanks for the inspiration!

Thank you! My total, and complete, pleasure! I like listing ingredients I use in my vegan preps, in hopes that folks in here will try them, and be delighted with the results. As a star graduate of L'école Des Coups Durs, I believe I have much to offer those who choose to boldly go into vegan meal options. Bon appétit!

(Note: Hit the Asian food market, in your town, for the Bok Choy and Wonton Strips, if possible. Also, use low-sodium vegan veggie broth as your base.)
 

First appointment with my new PCP, she changed a few things around to establish her territory. It's interesting that I've had three PCPs in the last few months and they all have different approaches to treating the same disease, who do you believe?

Stopped at Walmart on the way home.

Getting ready to fix lunch and take a nap.

Three in the last few months??? Doesn't sound cool, to me. Find a PCP whom you can stick with. While different approaches to a given disease may be of some benefit, I would worry about those separate approaches possibly clashing, where different meds are concerned, and I would avoid such a situation. I'm sure you've already read up on whatever condition(s) you are dealing with, and I would trust your gut feeling (no pun intended) as to which PCP is most in tune with you and your good health.

It's just life, my long term PCP retired and another PCP in the same practice filled in until a permanent replacement could be found, I met her this morning.

Yes, we have a huge Korean market nearby and is where I was planning to go today. It carries a wide variety of wonderful, inexpensive, incredibly fresh produce. I recently bought this and am eager to try it:

Got up a bit later today, needed more sleep and got it which is a good thing! Had an avocado sandwich which was so good. I love avocados. I even bought more of them the other day and they look so good and not like the little ones I used to get at the store I used to shop at. They are very good for cholesterol lowering and fatty liver.

Watched my game shows as usual. I love to see people win things! Maybe subconsciously I wish it were me.. 🤪 Now watching the court shows which I like a lot. They are so amusing. People can be so funny and interesting!

Going to take the dog out and relax again today...

I hope anyone reading this has a peaceful and relaxing day...

Warrgirl,congrats on your latest addition to your family and you becoming a great grandmother
My plans today,this morning take bus to local grocery store,too far for me to walk{20 blocks]
On my afternoon walk,stroll over to my close friend,Marcia's house and maybe walk their dog,'Aker' who always is happy to see me,wagging his tail,licks either my nose or ear when I bend down to hug him.Any time I get the chance to walk him makes my day
 
Oh what a day so far .. grocery shopping and some other chores meant I had to drive to 3 separate towns... !!


I never go shopping on a Friday, the traffic and the stores are always packed, and it's exhausting, but today I had to... .

The long queues in every store were really irritating...lots of people stocking up in case of a No Deal brexit in 6 weeks, taking boxes of staples off the shelves rather than one or 2 packs or cans as they might normally... so some people had 2 full shopping trolleys (carts)..each !!!!:eek:




Traffic was horrendous, I caught every red light through each town... and sat through 2 or 3 changes each time ... !!

Went for a coffee, and put put my hand in the cutlery box in the coffee shop, to get a spoon, and someone had put a knife in there, that I didn't see, and it ripped my nail off, (blood *ugh*) !!!:rolleyes:

I'm very pleased to be back home , ...:D

We made our monthly city/casino trip yesterday/today. We went to one of the granddaughters house last night, for a couple of hours, and dropped off a nice big toy for the great grandson's birthday coming this weekend....they are going to Nashville for the weekend, so no birthday party this year. Then, back to the casino, and we didn't go to bed until almost 2AM. A nice breakfast late this morning, a couple more hours of gambling, then we hit various stores on the way back home. I lost almost $600, but my wife won over $800, so it was a good trip. We're pooped, and the wife just went to bed, and I will be doing likewise as soon as I get caught up on e-mails, etc. Sooo...back to the routine, until our next trip.
 
Good Morning Kids...
Well as YOU can tell it's another sleepless night, have been taking LOTS of pain drugs tonight...Plus the TENS machine going... Don't like the Fall weather or winter... the dampness drives me crazier than I already am... Everyone tells me I should move to Arizona... Like to, but my life is here... Not a lot going on these days...

Out of the corner of my eye, I see the mouse blinking red now and then, must be coming up to time to change the batteries... Well, Ladies and Gents, not a lot more to say, except I hope YOU all have a wonderful weekend... and God Bless YOU all...

I made this last night and it was really and truly delicious! I used some LS broth that I had in the fridge plus some of the concentrate to give the broth a boost. Thank you again for the recipe/suggestion! I'll be making this again, especially in cooler weather.

Mike - have you considered snowbirding for a couple of the year's most unpleasant months? That might be a good compromise. There are many rentals available in AZ and NM. (New Mexico would be my first choice - compared to AZ it's less crowded, gorgeous and more affordable.)

Feel for you...don’t know your issues but sorry to read about the pain and not sleeping.

I had a sleepless summer and I think I’m finally catching up...last few nights I’ve slept for about 10 hrs...I could have slept longer but felt I better get up.since I’ve been an early bird all my life.

And although I’m not allowed to weigh myself every morning, I had a good feeling..a fat feeling, lol...and I have gained 2 lbs. so 119!

This was before going to bathroom so maybe just one pound gain but makes me happy.

I just hope when I do reach my desired weight....I will stop.

Because when I’m healthy....not hard to gain but hard to lose.

For now though...I’m happy and will deal with the other problems when and if they happen.
 
Ah, the Golden years. My day consisted of going to post office. Then on to get groceries at Aldis and Tops. Then a garbage run to our dumpster. Wife wanted coffee...trip,to Dunkin Donuts for that and finally a long overdue nap....that was interrupted by two phone calls and a visit from our neighbor. Yes, the wonderful world of Golden years. :love:


We don’t have an Aldis here but I’ve been to some in the Midwest. The one by my son in Illinois is great...I love it!..great prices and different things.

We are promised one here soon...but it’s been months that they’ve been saying that.

My closest one is in Bakersfield and that’s not close and who wants to go to Bakersfield..that’s worse than Fresno, lol.

I hope I haven’t offended anyone who might live there. :)
