Gee, maybe you should bake something? πŸ˜‚
I thought about it. Bread pudding with brandy sauce. Hot fudge pudding cake. Apple dump cake. There must be something that I have ingredients for...I do have brandy, canned apple pie filling, cocoa...

Got the winter Duvet on the bed now.. cooked dinner, and eaten that in front of the TV... still not sunset yet, another half hour./ amazingly the sun is still shining but low in the sky ..looks pretty out there..

Ebay seller sent an email saying they'd refunded my money now can they have the item back.. but there's been no refund.. so I'll give it another day.. and see if it arrives then..
 
I know it is not keto but I am making chicken noodle soup in the IP today. I always eat that when I am feeling sick. Not a cold or anything like that. But need to make myself feel better and that usually works.

I got a new office chair and now I am in the process of putting it together. Says you need two people but I am going to try anyway.

Taking down my home made scaffolding. I moved that bay window 21" to the right. Yes, it WAS a big job as I had to reframe inside and rebuild the roof and bottom, but I used PVC lumber instead of wood and foam insulation instead of fiberglass. Next year the siding will be replaced. I moved the window this summer as my wife wanted it moved and I knew it would cost a fortune to pay to have it moved. Still have to do some finishing inside, but we have winter for that!

That's does it to my back too every single time.. Whenever I've been somewhere, where I'm in and out of the car in several places in any one day, and believe me I'm no slouch, I'm very active and energetic.. .. added to that clutch control in a manual car .. ... I know about it when I get home, and all of the next day, my lower back hurts like the devil.. so you have my sympathies
 
@feywon Long, long ago, I lived in Farmington. Like more than 60 years ago. Then in Cruces. There's a feel about New Mexico that's different than anywhere else on earth. New Mexico was my all-time favorite place to live.
 
@hollydolly Granny sez do yourself a kindness and get a car with automatic transmission. Life is short so make it comfortable whenever possible.
lol.. no thanks, both the estranged husband and my not estranged dd have Hybrids.. o/h had a fully automatic prior to that.. and when I go on holiday I've ddriven Automatics .. don't like them, too slow of the mark... much more control with a manual.. but tbf it has crossed my mind to get an auto.. but nope far more to go wrong as well..

When you have a manual with a clutch pedal it allows you double-declutch, which can slow a vehicle or speed it up depending on whether you use the brake or accelerator pedal.
Today was are biannual dentist check up. Last Sunday I broke a tooth so today's appointment was most fortuitous. The broken tooth is going to be crowned, just don't ask the price.

Exactly which is what I find myself doing a lot to overtake slow moving vehicles or on sharp bends on our narrow country roads here in the rural shires.. I always find it very much more diiffult to gain enough speed in an automatic on a narrow road where you have to change gear and move very fast to overtake and be able to pull in on a single carriageway before the car is upon you in the opposite direction.. far easier with a manual..
 
....fixed my sausage gravy/biscuit breakfast...
I stopped in a motel in Corinth, Mississippi, that had a nice buffet breakfast. I helped myself to a bowl of what looked like oatmeal. Took a spoonful, and ack! ptui!! I asked the attendant what it was, and she said sausage gravy for the biscuits. I told her there should be a sign, because some travelers are from elsewhere.

You can do it. Often it's a matter of propping one part against a wall or someting. Or using your ingenuity. Good luck!
 
I wrapped up the preparations for the arrival of hurricane Ian (except for bringing in the hummingbird feeder), walked in the morning and dug out a heavier blanket.
The wind from the hurricane brought down a large pine limb and I had to drag that off.
So now I am just waiting and trying to stay entertained.
