Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
Anyways, he has his head going in the right direction and I will pray that he finds balance in ALL things.
I am soooooo very happy to hear that it is a blessing all around. Praise The Lord! HE will guide you in everything you seek from HIM.
You are doing a stellar job with your 2 sons. Keep up the good work, food insecurity is a tough one to overcome but, you are dealing with it amazingly.
May The Lord touch each one of you and bless you exceeding abundantly!
I am experimenting with different soups with an Asian flair, oh me oh my! Good stuff and finding some really good bases that make anything taste good. Last night I made a spicy soup mixed with shrimp, chicken, beef and a smoked hamburger patty needing used up, purple cabbage, green onion, the last bok choy and sliced white onion, oh yeah and noodles. Cleared our sinus right up, made us feel good and, best of all, tasted so yummy.
I love spicy dishes too. Do you have an Asian supermarket near your home?
The best thing is trying all the spicy items and learning how the heat is in each spice. Like peppercorn oil has a deep heat unlike anything else or chiltipens being a super hot short heat. Love using Wasabi on non sushi. That kind of thing is so fun for me to learn.
Tucson is a small city with huge diversity, meaning we have some of the best international markets and restaurants that I have ever seen.
Asian markets are fabulous! I love different spices too. Wasabi has great flavor.
I love Indian food for the same reasons. Just the smell of the spices are enticing.
I love "thewoksoflife" for Asian cooking tips and recipes. I was so happy to learn how to velvet meat to get the restaurant texture and taste. It really makes a huge difference.
Need, yes indeed. I love all international markets. Happy to live in an environment that exposes me to all the great food around the world in my own backyard.
They are Canadian.
We keep them.
The U.S. penney has cultural and historical value.
Of course now we are mostly cashless so I hardly ever use any coins or bills.
I wish Vince Guaraldi would have recorded more music. Love his compositions!
But they gave me drugs IV.
That went even better!
In the U.S., we throw pennies in the fountains, wishing wells, and ponds.
If you find a penny, they are called pennies from heaven.
Yes, the Coin Star machine is also automated.
Send, I’m glad your surgery went well.
We’ve been watching the Geminids on clear nights. Make your wishes on “falling stars”.
Frugal, not cheap.
No wonder wishes do not come true-everybody is doing it all wrong.
Look over your contracts carefully and make sure they do not allow short term "evictions" on ownership changes. We think the new owners plans are to replace the AL with an apartment complex - since the number of new comers moving in has restricted available apartments and houses here. You can make more money and have fewer "regulators" looking over your shoulder on straight rentals vs dedicated "senior" rentals.
Can’t agree more with you!
What a sad story.
In related news rent will increase in county run seniors apartments from $867.22 to $1,300. Fortunately there is rent control on occupied units.
Any who, while reflecting on her death, mom said of her "stubbornness killed her." Stubbornness is also what killed the friend's mother 10 years earlier when she had her own health woes and underwent cancer treatments.
Unless my mom finally wakes up and smells the coffee regarding PT and being up and around the house more frequently, I'll be telling everyone that exact phrase should she pass away sooner than expected in the near future.
I'll also tell people "I couldn't do anything with her." She had said that when it came to her being unable to deal with stubborn relatives and friends or others who lost someone that was guilty of stubbornness. She told me she's never going to change regarding her own stubbornness and thinks there aren't any honest caregivers out there.
While I wish to be cremated I do enjoy collecting tombstone sayings and "Stubborness killed Her" is a good one!
