2:53 am

sprite

pretty good. Which is nice, since I have to shop and cook today, lol

2:55 am

grannyrose

take it easy and slowly, right??

2:56 am

sprite

I have installed an app on my smartphone and programmed all 6 eating moments and the medication in it, in a way that I never have to take meds along with food... quite the puzzle, lol

2:57 am

sprite

yeah I will. First babble, then figuring out what to cook. Will make a soup and throw a couple of portions into the freezer for after op.

2:59 am

grannyrose

good id4 sprite. start getting some meals ready for yourself post-op.

3:00 am

sprite

yeah we are working on that. Most will be yoghurt etc, but for dinner, I will mostly take soup. Homemade and full of meat and veggies. I don't fancy pureed meat and veggies much.

3:01 am

sprite

oh I know! I'll make soup and an extensive salad today. Tadone!

3:02 am

grannyrose

nice one, sprite.

3:02 am

sprite

always a pleasure, and it is smart cooking, because I will have to cut veggies for the soup too. *grin* It so pays to be smart when you want to be lazy.

Ray100

is internationalness a word?

3:44 am

Lizlin

And they charge for each visit and the certificate needs to be renewed in 2 years!

3:45 am

7:14 am

Scrabbler

My sister is visiting form New Jersey and we paddled yesterday at a beautiful lake. Today will be cloudy so I think we will do a long hike. Tomorrow will be sunny and we will paddle again.

7:14 am

crosshair

There is an amazing mini-series on Netflix called "National Parks: America's best Idea." I highly recommend it.

7:15 am

Scrabbler

Nice.

7:15 am

crosshair

Some say the series it too lyrical and reflective, but I loved it

7:17 am

crosshair

Not so much filled with hard facts and data, it is, rather, filled with the history of the people behind the parks, and their emotions, sacrifices and ultimate victories over a government that at the time would have rather used to parks as a mined resource or to construct dams

7:18 am

crosshair

Darn, I am having readability issues today:)

7:20 am

crosshair

In the end, only one was lost, the Hetch Hetchy Valley

7:20 am

crosshair

Anyways, i ramble... time to find some tea...

7:21 am

Scrabbler

I am reading another book on Adirondack history,; this one was written in 1859. Fascinating.

7:22 am

crosshair

There, kettle is on. One good thing about living in 900 sq feet is that everything is at hand:)

7:22 am

crosshair

Would be a real interesting read written in 1859:)

7:23 am

mrpresident

and am about to watch the end of season 2 of Penny Dreadful

7:23 am

Scrabbler

The language is different, so that makes it interesting.

7:23 am

Scrabbler

What is that about, mrp?

7:24 am

crosshair

I love the older, more formal language, but if you can read Dickens, then there is no problem

7:24 am

mrpresident

featuring Dorian Gray, Frankenstein, Joan of Arc, Van Helsing, ... absolutely bizarre

7:24 am

crosshair

My issues arise when I have to read the Bard.

7:29 am

mrpresident

it is about a group of 5 people who are all very different, in Victorian London, trying to stop the evil.

7:29 am

Scrabbler

In high school I used Monarch Notes for every book and the only book I truly finished was Catcher in the Rye.

7:29 am

Scrabbler

Interesting, mrp.

7:30 am

mrpresident

all the people that come together are somewhat evil themselves, but not

7:30 am

mrpresident

is a very interesting series

7:31 am

mrpresident

7:35 am

we have to do a mail in vote this time -- leaving the country before the advance polls and not returning to our riding untill the day after the election

11:19 am

In our county mail in votes are the only way to vote now. Kind of sad.

11:19 am

11:20 am

harpjane

I still enjoy going to the polls. But then, I reminisce when I see a phone booth.

11:20 am

cybernan

that will never happen until you decide to elect your house of reps for more than 2 years

11:21 am

cosdem

I like going to the polls. Makes me feel like I'm being patriotic. Voting by mail is a poll tax IMO since you have to pay for the stamps

11:22 am

rururocks

they should have polls at starbucks.. so you could vote and get a latte

11:45 am

***Sorry, not meant to be critical***

11:47 am

My feeling is if some people like it and it works for them.. that's fine with me.. I guess if it doesn't kill you it's a good deal

11:48 am

12:10 pm

that would be megyn's mother and father then

12:11 pm

rururocks

megyn Kelly was weird in the debate.. it was like she was aggressively coked out

12:12 pm

Judi

I don't think 10 politicians on one stage can even be called a debate. It's more of a show-and-tell, 10 minute flash mob. Now, when they make it an enclosed cage death match... that's when things will get interesting.

12:12 pm

I have to think that naming your daughter a misspelling of a name that includes the abbreviation for a doctor who examines vaginas is unfortunate, to say the least.
