Best Of

Irishlove, it sounds like your dog may be having seizures. My granddog was on phenobarbital for hers.

Irish, I am sorry about your dog but glad that you had a good meal at Cracker Barrel and that your Factor box had some really good food in it to eat. Sounds great.

I did get to bed at a civilized hour and woke early for me. Slept pretty well. I have my echo so going out this morning but that is fine, should be home earlier. Tomorrow have my CT scan in the afternoon, need to make sure I stop eating 4 hours before. Next week have Herceptin on Wednesday. Put extra money on my Paratransit card.

DB did text me about going out around 6pm but turned him down this time as I did feel tired yesterday. Told him to have a good trip next week as it will be his wedding anniversary.

Not too much happening this morning, probably make egg and meat pie and get ready quickly as well. Put some coverup and bb cream on and ready to go.

Something with an egg will be on the way, prehaps a soft tortilla and an egg, I will see. Not sure about later.

I do hope everyone has a good day, hopefully comment section is fixed my mods. In pockets for everyone who needs me.

Good early morning all. Mara, bet that scared the heck out of you finding kitty where he didn't belong. A good friend lost their kitty to a garage door incident years ago. I'm so grateful that the doors now stop if the sensor picks up on a object. DH didn't park the car in far enough and fortunately the sensors worked.

We ordered Cracker Barrel tonight for delivery. DH didn't want to drive and tonight was turkey special, so I asked nicely and received a lovely meal. I did notice they have cut way back on amount of food but not quality. Still enjoyable especially with the sage stuffing. The Factor box included a meal of stroganoff hamburger with mushrooms, small boiled potatoes and delightfully tasting green beans. Can't put my finger on the spice used, but they were tasty and not hard or stringy. Cut way back on beef and going with more chicken, turkey meals.

Pigeon goes to vet tomorrow. She has a foul odor in her abdominal area. UTI??? Anal glands?? Don't know, but she doesn't have fever, eats fine and seems to act normal. Mama, Minnie Mouse has what I believe are beginning stages of doggie dementia. DH walks the two together early in morning, sometimes Minnie just freezes up and has a far away stare. I've noticed it here in the house. No accidents, nothing about her demeanor changes, just a sad thing to watch. She comes out of it without any residual problems, or at least so far.

It's hot and humid. Watching tropics carefully for any westward changes in the projected path for Hurricane Erin. Stocked up on water and paper products. DH will test run the generator this week. He's grocery shopping tomorrow to beat the crowds. Nothing written in stone, but we believe if it or one does hit us as stage 1 to 3, we will stay. Otherwise we will evacuate. There's a fairgrounds inland that accepts pets that are caged along with sleeping area that's less than hotel equipped, but it'll work. One thing we always forget to stock up on is cash. Without electricity stores that are open require cash. I've asked DD to make plans to come here. She is less then worried about such things.

In pockets for all those medical appts. Mara and for any one else waiting for test results and appts., too.

Well, DB coming tonight, let him reach out first and will see them both. Need to put brakes on buying too much, need tea mostly, do not need condiments or anything like that and no chips or queso needed at this point. I may check on the black bean situation but nothing even close to a full order. Got 74.00 rewards for paying my rent on my card that could be used for groceries as well, I will have to see.

Got laundry on the go, my goodness it adds up quickly, got the repaired washer on the go first and the second one will go. I am noticing the smaller repaired washer really does not hold much more than the 20 dollar washers. Oh well, it still works and the newest one still has the biggest tub and more agitation in the spin dryer part.

Not too sure about food, something eggs, beans and cheese and rice sound pretty good, chopping cheese and beans up, throw on a sprayed pan with some garlic spread and a little of the caesar. Option two still involves rice, beans, cheese and egg but also features a mini pot pie, preheated and crushed up, add all same stuff in the pan as well. I will likely eat soon though just got up.

I just got up so need to stay on top of chores, no rushing is needed on my part.

I hope everyone has a great day and in pockets for all who need me.

Irish, that definitely sounds like my Mom's shepherd's pie for sure. Admittedly I was a really picky eater as a younger person. Would not touch a veggie to save my life. I would eat croutons and bacon bits and put Catalina dressing on and call that meal. I could eat around beans in chile and my mom did not tell me fries were made from potatoes. She was sure I would get scurvy. As time went on, I did eat more veggies and the shepherd's pie too. Ha, the toot is funny, oh I am sure they hear it all too, as long as you enjoyed your meal, that is all that was important. Far as the gas, nobody has anything on me with toots. Could it be the beans? 🤭

@cookie54 , the meal was very good when I had it and I enjoyed it too, was a process but worth it. Tomorrow, getting chipotle mayo, free and is coming today, I can use that with stuff until the fiesta beans with mild chipotle come back to Amazon.
