This special day wasn't recognized for me, for certain. I'm not a fan of pasta. I can and do eat it sometimes but if it disappeared I wouldn't ever miss it. Hoping all of you who do enjoy it are able to eat a good helping today!
Continuing last night's conversation.....Kat, I do hope I hear from the doctor soon. I'll give it until Monday before I start nagging them, since I know the doctor leaves for the weekend on Friday at noon.
Squirrel, thanks for the information about Polio immunizations. Now I'm sure I must have had the sugar cube given out by the Health Department because by 1962 I'd been out of school for a year and was married. I didn't know any of that history.
Robin, you should be the Bionic Woman, considering all the body parts you've had worked over. I can only imagine how much pain has gone into all that. I have to say I admire how you've kept on keeping on and continue to accomplish all that you do. When I'm in pain I just want to crawl under a rock and wait to quit hurting. I know it doesn't work that way but I don't always realize the body uses a lot of energy coping with pain so I'm trying to keep that in mind as I sit around coping.
I'm still trying to process the idea of one of your procedures costing $500,000!! My husband had double hip replacement , which cost $90,000 and I had Cyberknife Radiation Treatment that cost about the same amount. Those figures blew my mind, but insurance paid for most of it in both cases. There's no telling what it would cost today.
I was relieved yesterday when my youngest son got back into the USA. He'd been in Tansania, Africa installing a network system for a seminary there. I talked with him very briefly, as he was at his place of business in Dallas, but on his way to a hotel to try to get some rest and readjust before returning to his "home" and family, who are right now at a campground in Virginia. He knows there will be no chance of resting once he gets back there.

Another sunny day in the 80s. Slight cool down tonight. Highs only in 70s over weekend.
Then back in the 80s before rain on Wed.
Home today so I worked outside. I pulled out weeds where I left off before I fell and had my cold.
I was going to dig out canna bulbs, but too warm for that. After lunch, I cut down some flowers in
the front bed. I left some since I want to take seeds off them later. Sunday my plan is to rake
leaves out of ditch behind my house. When it rains, I want it to soak in the ground.
The pasta I like is mac and cheese.
OC, I'm glad your son back in US so you don't have to worry about him.
I hope everyone ha a good rest of the day.

That was my thought for dinner today,,,,,,,but I think I will do Mac & tuna salad..........haven't had it in a while........
We have sun today, but it is chilly out there.......We had such unusually warm temps thru Oct., sort of forgot it is really autumn which leads to winter. Last nite, new guy was talking of times we had early snow, and late snow. (a trace on Aug. 31 one year..........and then a big 8.3 in. on Oct. 31, 1991. Yeah, trick from Mother Nature that year. LOL

I started the day early, heading to a art class where I made 3 new ornaments. I drug hunny bunny with me and made him make all the important decisions, what color should I put here now here. They made him finish the paperwork too.... it was great fun....
Yesterday we hit 92.... then after night fell around 8pm we had thunder, Vinnie's favorite, and rain, lots and lots of rain for no more than 10 minutes. Today is cooler we should hit the mid 70's.
I used to stay at my sister's after the Christmas Holiday and on the 26th we'd make ravioli's the stuffings would be left overs.
If only it was as easy as this to make..... those are fettuccine noodles but you get the idea..... but now the 26th is always her husband's side of the families last night of Hanukkah..... We now leave right after breakfast so she can get all the dishes done and cleaning for a different family invasion....
Happy Friday.....

I remember this really well.........May 1-2nd, 2013.............8.5 in". Twas opening of fishing season, and guarantee you, most unhappy fishermen. You never know. One year no snow.......but the lake ice was just beginning to crack and break. Boat cannot go far at all on ice, lolol. The river current helped there, so most of the fishment only were able to do parts of the river. Forget the solid ice lakes. (this was opening beginning of May)
I hate that I have to wear jackets out, and sweaters under........which means it won't be long and the winter jackets & coats will be in use. Ah, yes, up north is unpredictable. LOL
