A relaxing day today at my local nature reserve.
Mine will do that from time to time. Just have to go to settings and slow it down. Too fast for my eyes (or brain).A day off and what does Maggiecat do? Wakes me up at 4am.
Not gonna wait for fall for the weeds to die because when they go to seed, they spread. And fall here waits until October/November.
The scroll feature on my laptop has gone crazy and only zips up and down at a dizzying speed. Sigh. It's also been doing some other strange things lately. Hope it's not time to get a new one because I've turned into somebody who's tighter than bark on a tree and don't want to spend a single cent![]()
what clinic is that ?.. good luck, hope things will be better for you..Off to London clinic soon for blood test & update from the consultant about my treatment.
I know exactly how you felt. You reminded me of myself when I have had computer problems that refused to be fixed. I would try everything in the book to make it work but it would not. After days and days of trying different things, I would finally get it to work and let out a LOUD shout of "Whoo HOO!!!! I did it!!!!!" I was surprised my neighbors didn't call 911 on me but they didn't.I know most of you will not understand my happiness today over finally reconnecting my computer with my printer but I am SO happy I did it.......myself! I was so pleased with myself after printing a couple of test pages that I decided to figure out how to get Libre Office installed and working. That has never worked since I bought this new computer last summer. I have so much saved that I have written and including my eBooks that I was not able to bring up at all. Well, I did it. And can now write using it once again. What a difference it makes.
I am pretty happy today.
@hollydollyIt's sunny and overcast but again Humid.. Got some acute pain today due to my jaunt ( driving) yesterday... oddly when I was fine when I got in the car.. 20 minutes later when I got to my destination, I could barely open the Boot ( Trunk).. for pain... and that's after staying home for 3 days ..Anyway, I;ve got a heat pad on me now.. hopefully that'll help.. and I'm not going anywhere at least for the next couple of days..
Just been fetching provisions from the Barn.. to replenish the kitchen store cupboards.. then I brushed the cobwebs from the trellises.. and the sheds and canopy where they accumulate overnight....
Someone was having D-I-Y inside their home this morning, sounded like flooring being hammered down .. it was so loud I had to close my windows, and they weren't even in this road..![]()

Good grief! You're even worse than I am. You "just" did a few little things. Sure. Those few little things are what's keeping you from healing. Brush the cobwebs away, replenish the kitchen cupboards... The cobwebs will wait. You probably have enough in your cupboards that you can eat for a week.Just been fetching provisions from the Barn.. to replenish the kitchen store cupboards.. then I brushed the cobwebs from the trellises.. and the sheds and canopy where they accumulate overnight....
LOL... I can already knit and crochet.. I find it incredibly boring, plus now it would be too painful due to the arthritis in my right fingers.. I can't watch a Movie all in one hit, I get too restless, or read a book in the daytime or I'll fall asleep and be unable to sleep at night.. I just have to be doing something all the time..it's a nuisance sometimes but that's how I am..Good grief! You're even worse than I am. You "just" did a few little things. Sure.

Read a book. Find a movie or three or 12 to watch. Teach yourself to knit or crochet or tat or needlepoint. Pretend you're a cat and do nothing.
Nooooooo... I have to be able to move....@hollydolly
Woman!!! What am I going to do with you?! You're doing too much again, already
I think I'm going to have to get over there and duct tape you to the chair.
I definitely think I've got restless body syndrome... my daughter is the same.. only she's 21 years younger, so she's got the energy I had back when I was in my 40's.. when everyone always asked..''where do you get your energy from''.. not something I could ever answer ..@hollydolly I get it. I have to be "doing" too. Anything. Doing. Can't sit still. Is there a name for such a malady?
We've heard about restless leg syndrome. Maybe there's a restless body syndrome.
And we will look forward to the results on the photography thread! ::rubbing hands together:: =DA relaxing day today at my local nature reserve.
you've got to tell your friend.. I know you are desperate for the help, but I'm just finding it more tiring than I can cope with...I have been helping my ex-Trooper friend on his small farm. He has 4 Angus steers he raises for butchering and 6 Holsteins for milking. I have been going over to his farm at 5 every morning to do the milking and it’s beginning to take its toll on me. I am tired by 9 when I get done. A month or so ago, he bred the one cow and yesterday we found out that she is pregnant.
We have a young high school kid that helps too, but he goes back to school next week. That means more work. As much as I like working on his farm, I’m afraid Father Time is catching up and I can’t get as much done as I used to. He wants me to work 6 hours a day starting next week. I would like to maybe give it up, but he can’t get any help now and the workload is picking up. Come October, we will have to harvest the second cutting of the hay and in early November, the corn has to be harvested. Hopefully, he will hire another man soon.
Anyone want a job? $25 an hour, plus all the milk you want and when we butcher the steers, you can’t get 50 pounds of beef.
Exactly and that’s what I told my wife. I told her I didn’t work this hard on my job.you've got to tell your friend.. I know you are desperate for the help, but I'm just finding it more tiring than I can cope with...
Perhaps stay with him until October till he gets more help, but you can't make yourself ill with good intentions for your friend.. 6 hours a day is almost like going back to work again.. especially when it's as physical as farming is...
