Pooping after major painkillers is intimidating and painful. When people talk about opioid addictions, I think the pooping issues would stop me from abusing these drugs.

The fun thing about eating out, besides getting to try new delicious things you did not have to plan and cook, is LEFTOVERS!

Oh, I take ibuprofen. It's my go to for headaches. Acetaminophen won't touch my headaches for some reason. And of course, it's not an anti inflammatory, so in my book, it's a bit of a why bother... The reason the plastic surgeon doesn't want me taking it, if at all possible, is because there is a higher likelihood of bruising when taking ibuprofen after surgery. So far bruising seems minimal, if at all. Right now the swelling is what is noticeable and cartoon like!

I had IPL laser - really just removes age spots.

Greetings all

Another sunny day and even my Apple watch concurs. We often get a couple of sunny weeks in January without much rain. It appears calm but there are wave warnings. No need to warn me.

So DD has me thinking about grief and my experiences as an estate and probate lawyer. I learned that people grieve in very different ways. Some busy themselves with financial and paper work details and want to rush the process to the point of seeming crass. Others curl up in a ball and can't answer the phone or open a letter. Still others become very angry at every little thing and want to fight and argue. Some get hyperactive. Conclusion is that there is no right or wrong way and one should not pass judgement on those whose grief style is confusing. It is probably good for DD's dad to get out and walk and to find puttering activities. But DD you will have no difficulty in finding plenty to do over the next week or two. Sending strength.

Pizza for breakfast today. My fave.

Manatees Liz! So love those creatures. And alligators, not so much but the boat ride sounds fun.

Peps don't be a hero on the pain pills. Dr. Cirangle told me ibuprofen was ok to take as long as I took it with a bit of food. Still I use it sparingly. Glad you also have a sunny winter day which is mood enhancing.

Paula cute dress. That could well be the Florida uniform. Yes you need to catch up on sunning.

CC hoping the sinuses are calming down.

There is a sort of new little inn here called the Humboldt Bay Social Club. Looks like they have small plates and such so I will make a point to try it out. It is way out on this peninsula on the far side of the bay so kind of out there but I bet it has a great view. Maybe su****oo. I am making a sort of new years resolution to eat out more as I am sick of cooking and for a rural area we really have a lot of interesting restaurants.

Yikes learned I have gallery duty tomorrow. Go thing I am not oversheculed. today will be gym and studio.
