Tuesday Roll Call

Good morning!

Just a few errands early and then I'll stay inside in the A/C. I did clean out my office yesterday and got ready for my friends to move me on Sunday afternoon. It was easier than I expected.

Have a great day!

Connie

Good morning Connie and the rest of Illinois!

Glad to hear that your chore was eaiser than you thought.  Sometimes that is the way of things, no?

I am working today then home.  Not too exciting.  I think we will have some of the pork roast from the grill-fest on Sunday. 

Hoping everyone has a lovely day and stays cool!

I am late getting here today and WOW it looks like a lot of otheers are late as well.

What is going on OH ILers?

Mostly home catching up paying some bills then maybe a trip to Walgreens for me.  Definitly a trip to the dentist to have the other side of my mouth deep cleaned.

Boy, what a slow day here oh OHIL.

I did stay in the house but I put a bunch of lettuce down the disposal which gave me a chance to meet a new plumber! He said no lettuce or cabbage in a disposal. I'm not sure what the point of having one is but by the time he got here when he turned it on everything went down! Of course! But he didn't change labor so it was pretty cheap lesson to learn. He told me one day he got called to the same house twice because after he unclogged the system the person cleaned out the refrig and stopped up the whole system again. LOL

Kay is out for dinner tonight with the bunko women so I'll be cooking for myself if I can think up something I want to eat. It's a good thing it's so hot or I'd go to Popeye's and get red beans!

Keep cool!

Connie

No celery either. We learned that years ago (when we first moved into our house in 1978) and that is when we took our disposal out. We have such a long run from the kitchen sink to the sewer pipe to the village that we had to run water for close to 5 minutes before we would have cleared that gunk in the pipe.

Hi Everyone! 

I  was asked to come in from 7a-9a before going to a deposition for a case that a former employee filed from when I was a general manager for Burger King. I was let go for the day at 745, so I counted it a waste of gas. Came home and made an egg with a little lowfat cheese and a bit of ham. So glad I did because I went to the wrong place and had to book it through the downtown strip of Rockford to get to the actual place of the deposition. The silly thing took two and a half hours, after which I treated myself to some of a cup of broccoli cheese soup (heavenly).

Tomorrow is WATER DAY for the kiddos. We usually cool off by running through the sprinkler a few times too :)

I took myself a nice long nap this afternoon. It is amazing how much your body suffers when you have been through a painful episode. I just look at things in the house that need to be done and say "screw it" it will get done eventually.

I was sent home on a soft diet and I have been researching what I can or not eat. It is a generous diet but I know I will miss some of the foods that are coming in out in my garden like the cherry tomatoes and peppers. I have to be on the diet until told that I can stop. I have an appt. with my primary on Aug 9th. I gained 15# from the IV in the hospital and feel like a big sausage. I will get over it because I can see the scale coming down already. I have had a daily headache since I had the small bowel follow through and I am thinking that it is from the contrast that I had to drink - this is in addition to the runs it has given me - isn't medicine WONDERFUL!

Gonna go out shortly and slowly water my flower containers and veggies. Like I said slowly - I will be careful.

Slowly is the way I walked to the dentist then Walgreens and home today.
