Strained my R thumb this aft. opening the stubborn cap on a bottle of vanilla extract. (Too proud to grab the nutcracker I keep around for that). Still on the fence about auditioning--the production manager made it clear that not auditioning was no bar to getting a solo line in general or being placed in a quartet in a scene, so long as they're familiar with what you can do. After 20 years in the cast, I'm pretty sure they know by now. But listening to some of the specific auditions (I arrived in time for the tail end), I made the right choice--the voices were all awesome. Even if I'd been able to practice ahead, I know I don't have the chops to stand out--especially at 71. It'll be interesting to see if I am assigned an actual character in the news (I got to play Angela Merkel twice, without auditioning--but she's no longer in the news). I'd be a perfect fit to play MTG (I am envisioning a duet with Lauren Boebert based on a parody of a famous song from Annie Get Your Gun--"Anything you can say, I can say dumber"--but I think they've written a different parody for those two, requiring "belter" voices and tap-dancing ability). We shall see.

Tonight is Kol Nidre, the start to Yom Kippur., the holiest day of the year. We need to be in synagogue by 6:!5 pm so I probably won't be back till at least tomorrow night or more likely Thursday morning. I make a simple dinner pre-fast - bake salmon, rice and hot veggie. Try to minimize seasoning to decrease any thing that can make you thirsty. It is a 25 hour fast - no food or water unless you have health restrictions that prevent you from fasting. The water is the hardest part.
Have a great Tuesday and Wednesday.

A rainy day here in the Shenandoah Valley. I did lots of cleaning yesterday and my back aches today. Tylenol and REIKI therapy hopefully will help.
Still dealing with stomach issues, so I’m trying different diet approaches. I’ve eliminated dairy from my diet and so far my stomach feels a little better. Will see what happens when I eat yogurt. If I can’t figure this out on my own, I’ll need to get a referral to a motility clinic at UVA in Charlottesville or Johns Hopkins in Baltimore. I use to go to Hopkins when I was first diagnosed with Gastroparesis and lived in northern Virginia. Took part in a study for several years.
Heading to Costco this afternoon. The NATS have a doubleheader today that’s meaningless for them since they’re the worst team in baseball this year. We still watch and are hopeful for next season.
Karen - I hope you have an easy fast.
Have a safe and healthy day.

I’m tired. I met with 2 ladies this morning for a walk. It was 52 and chilly, but we got in about 3 miles. I think I had on 4 layers. I did some grocery shopping, went to the vacuum repair store. I was thinking I needed a new part for my Orek - micro sweep blade. He looked it up and said I’m fine without it. For dinner I made a small roast beef, heat up the house with the oven on. But I too have turned on the heat. We keep it at 68, 62 overnight. The mornings were just too cool.
I had a call from my insurance adjuster, he’s headed to my FL house tomorrow. I sent him 4 videos of the property as neighbors cleaned it up, before & after. I contacted the roofer and he’ll meet the appraiser there tomorrow. And I’ve also had to ask neighbors to let them in my house. Apparently the appraiser has to inspect the ceilings and maybe go up in the attic. I’m nervous that somehow they won’t approve a new roof. Don’t know why, just not being there to see with my own eyes I guess. A gf up the street from me in FL lives in Illinois, she’s flying down next week to be there when her appraiser gets there on Tuesday. I’ll be glad when it’s over.
Karen - May you have an easy fast.
Sandy how have you made out with the drain system? I don’t think I missed it, but I may have been preoccupied.
Mary - Tippy keep you on your toes!
Jackie- We keep it no higher than 68. But we also have an electric blanket in the bed. Some nights it’s heavenly!
I know I’m missing some, I need to write down stuff as I’m 3 pages behind! Enjoy the week ladies!

Here's our quotation for today:
There is no more searching test of the human spirit than the way it behaves when fortune is adverse and it has to pass through a prolonged period of disappointing failures. Then comes the real proof of the person. Achievement, if one has the ability, is a joy; but to take hard knocks and come up smiling, to have your mainsail blown away and then rig a sheet on the bowsprit and sail on—this is perhaps the deepest test of character. -Harry Emerson Fosdick0 -
Cindy, figers crossed for a new roof for you.
Cardplayer, I hope you can figure out your digestive issues. Hopefully ( if you do need to use one of your clinics ) they may have discovered some better treatments or treatment combinations. Fingers crossed. Also hope you are going to have a back that feels better soon.
Karen, oh my. I do feel for you about the water. That was my go to, daily, all day long drink. I so miss it since I've had to be on water restriction. I'm the only one in my family that "craves" water. Almost all the time.
Long day today. Didn't get near done what I meant to, although I got a couple of extras on a sort of have too, want to, to get it out of the way basis. I had lost something in my pantry that I was going to give to someone else. So needed to turn it up. I had done my pantry right before I broke my arm, but sice then had two more hospitalizations and so I just couldn't spot what I wanted w/o emptying the bottom two shelves in the pantry. Whew !!! I found the item and so many more things that will find their way to the storage shed. Not sure ( likely due to the door that closes ) why everyone wants to 'stash' their things in my pantry. So I announced today that there would be no more stashing or there would be no more meals from the kitchen. My couch is full of things to go to the shed tomorrow and a lot of junk went straight into the trash can. It felt fantastic, but my list didn't get shorter -- just un-expectedly added to. Tomorrow will be another busy day, but I'll do better on my original list. No super time takers tomorrow.

illinoislady, I definitely can relate to the shredding and throwing out of junk. We have a shredder machine in our home office, but even with that, there are times I get back logged on things to shred. I have been de-junking my house for the past 10+ years and still have more to do! We have been in the same house for 43 years and when our kids moved out, they didn't take all of their "stuff!" I do see somewhat of an end in sight. Like you, the surgeries keep things from progressing the way I want it too. Not happy about it but what can I do? Better to just take a deep breath and move forward.
I am off today due to the Jewish holiday. I too am thinking about friends on this day.
I was supposed to hear from pre-admission testing dept this week, also a call from pre-registration to confirm information and know my financial obligation, so I called them and now will wait for a call back today. I don't mind, at least I can take the call at home, and today is damp and cold with more rain expected this afternoon, so I am not even tempted to do any gardening. When I am at work I am almost always in front of students or in transition from class to class. I can't take personal calls because I have no privacy and I lock my purse in my car because things go missing at work, and sadly, not always due to students!
I also need to go over the bills, which are all set up to be paid for October and first week in November. I do all that online via my bank "bill pay" system. That is one form of technology I love! I rarely pay by check anymore. I pay all the bills because my husband is "financially challenged." When we met in 1977, he never balanced his check book! Somehow, he managed ok, but when we were married, I took over the bills and he was more than too happy to hand them over. I do keep him informed on everything. He has always been a hard worker, but the "banking business" was not his thing. We balance out each other.
I am trying to do things to prepare for my surgery next Wednesday. I know I won't be able to reach above the counter height or lift anything heavy for a while, so I am making sure to set certain things on the counter.

Good morning. I have enjoyed the cooler weather and taking long walks. I even ran a little bit. The painter finished on the rental house and did a terrible job. I wish our regular home improvement company had been available. The carpet people are backed up, so DH is going out to get a few estimates from other companies. We took another load of junk to the dump. After all that we came home and cleaned up and went out for a little date. We played out favorite songs on the juke box, ate and had a couple of beers. Then we danced, unfortunately, DH fell taking me with him. Luckily we did not get injured. I think we should give up dancing.

We restore the holiness of the world through our loving-kindness and compassion. Everyone participates. It is a collective task. Every act of loving-kindness, no matter how great or small, repairs the world. All those ever born have shared this collective work since the beginning of time.

A lot of conversation during our three days of travel from MN to Louisiana! I caught up and thought appropriate responses as I read. Too much to put in a post. I wish everyone the best luck in their endeavors and tests and surgeries.
We got home yesterday afternoon about 4 pm and were pleasantly surprised that the air was not hot and humid. It's in the 60's this morning. We often do not get nice fall temperatures until November.
DH always hits the ground running as far as transitioning from one situation to another. He got up this morning and went to play golf with his group of men golfers. I got up later and am easing into the day. I will be busy bringing containers inside and putting things away. I also need to do grocery shopping for dinner tonight.
So much to do in the yard and on the patio but that will have to wait its turn. No point in being overwhelmed.
Have a good Wednesday.

Petite, I am laughing and at the same time not laughing. Not so much because of your tumble as having been so close myself. I'm not sad to be older, but it does bring changes. Was thinking instantly of how many times I've fallen in the past and not thought a thing about it. Now hyper-aware because I am older. I know it is better to make changes as age advances and I will but I will also indulge myself in the nostalgia of having been able to live for a long time in more carefree fashion.
Our furnace is now on most mornings due to dropping temps overnight. Warms okay during the day. We have a couple more days coming up of a bit warmer but then back to upper 60's. The trees are still green, but there are a number of dry leaves on the ground as well. If we didn't know any other way, the influx of deer in the yard eating the acorns would sure warn us that transition is on the way.
Thinking of you Maverick since I pay most of the bills here although Dh does give me some money for them. Otherwise I'd have nothing left of my social security. I think ( it sounds like anyway ) we may all get a raise on that. Prices of so much have gotten higher, so it will help for sure.
I think we almost always have some toss outs, or Goodwill items lurking around. I think sometimes of all the things I thought would make my life easier if I had them and find way too often they take up space in the house, mainly un-used. Since SIL went to work ( now helping with bills after a long stretch ) Dh and I are going to have to juggle putting together smaller boxes of give aways as there are plenty. It will be an og-going project and likely will go through a lot of our cooler weather
Carole, are you ready to get on the road. If so, hoping you have an easy time of the drive back to LA.

Yom Kippur reminds me of a class I am taking at church. Hopefully the lesson sticks. Might our Jewish friends have a morally profitable day.
Petite, I am sure that if I had a partner for dancing, I would be the one to fall. Glad he didn't get hurt.
I have to get busy on sewing but stuck at the moment because all my bobbins are in use. Amazon is my friend, because a bike ride out to Wal Mart is a major project. But I did get busy and harvested my tomatillos, hard freeze expected Friday night. So, pickling them is probably the best choice. But I have quilting this afternoon, and directly after that another class at church.
I have tried to set up business cards online, but just can't get through their programming. I tried to do it at home, but cannot get them 2 by 3 1/2 inches. I gave my work to a friend, and he really made progress.
I am doing my PT exercises daily. I note that my weak right ankle makes me walk on the outside of that foot, which forces my knee into an even more abnormal angle.

Hi all,I have had another hiatus from BCO and a very busy year.
It is so good to see this thread thriving and supporting one another so beautifully.
I find that the demands of social media, emails, texts, phone calls, family, "Must-dos", etc. are frequently overwhelming.
The days go by and I am always facing something to do! Prioritizing is not easy, as I have so many goals lately.
No regrets about retiring, that's for sure.
I will try to catch up with recent posts!
I am doing well ... 11 years out from BC and 4 year survivor of stage 3 ovarian cancer. I have a lot to be grateful for. And my life is full of mostly joyful moments.
The sad moments come more often now that I am older. My dearest brother is not thriving after years of dementia. We did get to celebrate his 80th birthday which was fun and memorable. I plan to visit him very soon, as he declines.
There has been a lot of travel this year, and that makes me appreciate doing everyday things at home even more.
I hope to check in again soon.
Warm wishes for all!
Joan

My pre-fast meal was chicken soup & a fried egg. Next food will be at the post-havdalah communal kiddush.
We were taught (at least in Reform religious school) that the Talmud forbids the aged and "infirm" from fasting on Yom Kippur, because preservation of life is the paramount mitzvah (commandment). There are even interpretations mandating that those who are aged & infirm take very small amounts of nutrition & hydration (a bite and a sip) every few minutes until they are stabilized. I've taken that to mean drinking at least enough water to take my meds and not faint, as well as one cup of black coffee to keep my asthma at bay. When I was little, the only shul in our Brooklyn neighborhood was Orthodox (not "modern" Orthodox), and there was the overwhelming smell of perfume to mask the ammonia scent of the little vials of "smelling salts" people carried to keep from fainting. Our rabbi is in remission from CLL (chronic lymphocytic leukemia)--and he does not abstain from sips of water. Anyway, service is usually over before sunset, and there is kiddush (challah & wine or grape juice) immediately afterward. When I lived in Seattle (where the sun sets later before the time-changes) services were over at 4:30pm--and it felt so wrong to be chowing down in temple. In Brooklyn, once we turned 12 we were expected to fast until sundown.
Mary, have you considered seeing a podiatrist to be fitted for orthotics to realign your foot (sounds like that foot is excessively "supinating") to reduce the stress on your weak ankle? Also a brace (lace-up, elastic, AirCast) might help.
Petite, sorry about the fall--this is why Bob & I sit out all but the slow-dances at hospital dinner-dances. (I'd have to lead, anyway, and I don't want to embarrass him).
While I was in temple last night, Bob was out to dinner and spent an hour on the phone with his retired nurse in Ft. Myers Beach. She lost her roof and her entire pool enclosure. Insurance covered only 50% of the roof and other damage to the house, and the pool enclosure not at all. So she's out roughly $100K. She has cell service but no power, and finally got a FEMA tarp over what had been her roof.
What national news failed to report was that SE FL sustained damage from Ian as well, though not the flooding or storm surge that SW, central & NE FL got. The Broward & Palm Beach county areas had several tornadoes, mostly EF-0s (and an EF-1 over open areas). But Kings Point--the senior development in Delray Beach where my mom used to live and which we inherited and finally walked away from in 2008--was slammed by an EF-2, with roofs ripped off the second floor units and doors & windows blown out. My mom's 1st fl. unit in the "Flanders" section was in the only building that Wilma left untouched in 2006, but apparently this twister devastated most of the development. People found out that the insurance they'd bought--which was part of their monthly maintenance assessment--did not cover tornadoes or other strictly-wind damage, just hurricanes, and insurers did not consider tornadoes spawned by hurricanes as "hurricane damage." So large numbers of KP seniors are now homeless, having to couch-surf or try to pay rent or motel charges they can't afford. To add insult to injury, they are still on the hook for their monthly assessments. Since the tornado cut such a narrow swath in what was not the official "disaster area," the state's disaster agency is proceeding on a case-by-case basis--in other words, sloooowwwwly.
My mom (who died intestate) left an unpaid mortgage balance, which we could handle, but the assessments were bleeding us dry. We tried short sales, but the lender turned away several all-cash buyers, and one was rejected by the condo board. We did the math (and consulted my mom's estate's atty and my then-boss who was a real estate expert) and found out that if we simply walked away and let the place be foreclosed, it would be an "in rem" (i.e., against the property & not the person) proceeding with no effect on our credit rating--so we basically said "come & get it." The lender got $800 from the foreclosure sale--they'd turned away a couple of $32K buyers we'd offered them.

Welcome back, Joan! Glad to hear you are surviving both cancers. Sorry about your brother's dementia.

Thanks, Sandy...I shall never catch up! So forward we go.

For those who fasted, I hope you have a nice post-fast meal.
Will be thinking of you mavericksmom as you prepare for surgery next week.
Hope your DH is ok petite.Nice to meet you Joan.
Preparing for visitors this weekend. BIL and SIL will be visiting for a couple of days. When we moved 4.5 years ago, we downsized, but when I clean the house, it feels so much bigger than my other house.
I hope everyone is doing well and has a nice evening.

Joan, I have thought about you a million times I bet. So glad to hear from you. I shall have to write you a p.m. as I don't know how caught up we are on things. I'm talkative here but don't say a lot about personal things because most of mine seem easy ( most of the time ) to deal with. I think I have a tendency to relate more to others by talking about myself which is a bad ( and possibly a bit or even a lot annoying ) habit. Anyway, just wonderful to see your name pop up. I had been thinking about you -- maybe you felt the vibes.
Another long day today, but not at all as busy as yesterday. Did have to go to the store. What would I do without Walmart ???? I'm always thinking I can stay home to do what I need to and finding out the hard way I"m out of something or that Dh has an errand. SIL still using our truck to go to work everyday, but that is okay. His contributions to the bills are an enourmous help for sure. Enables me to have a bit of money that wasn't possible very easily before. A bit of savings now I hope which I did before but it really took a long time -- hopefully faster now.

Sandy, what Bob’s retired nurse is going through with insurance is what I fear. Insurance adjuster was at my house today. Neighbor let him in to look at the ceiling too. Not sure when I’ll hear what will be covered. If only 50% will be covered, it will cost me $10,000 plus. My damage is no where near what Bob’s nurse lost - for me shingles, for her entire roof. I’ve heard that all screening on lanais, as well as pool cages are not covered. I’m going to have to really read my insurance papers. Tedious but necessary.
We are not going down to Fort Myers until the end of November, after our Texas run. I told our neighbors I hate being here while the insurance adjuster is in the house. They told me to stay here, as it’s chaos there. Another gf in Joliet, Illinois was going down this weekend. She’s changed her mind and is staying home too. They don’t need us in the mix of loss, shortages, etc. Someone in Bradenton can’t find milk for her kids. Even shelf stable is gone.
Joan, welcome back. Petite thankfully your are both alright from your dance fall. Jackie, I still have stuff laying around from the painting. I’ve got a lot in bags to be donated, and a lot has already left the house. Amazing what we accumulate! Mary, I wear orthotics and they do help to stabilize my feet. Cardplayer enjoy your company. Prayers for family members suffering.

I have a cloth and elastic ankle brace, and a heavy-duty plastic one. PT wants me to wear the cloth one. I also have orthotics in my shoes--left foot has a lot of arthritis. It is strange to me, but when I do my balancing on my right foot, I do it barefoot, and this gets me to concentrating on waking up my big toe. With the chemo nerve damage, I get more sensation in my big toe in bare feet. It makes sense to me, since the carpet is a distinctly different texture than socks or orthotic. The ankle and knee are making each other worse, and I feel like the exercises are also making it worse. He may be thinking of doing something to the ankle, too.
Anyway, it was a wild day yesterday. Starting the pickles in the morning, then quilting in the early afternoon, ([The basket was full with batting and fabric for pillows] Bike ran out of juice, so I called teacher and went home, and she picked me up) followed by Bible study in the late afternoon, then finished the pickles in the evening. Spicy Pickled Tomatillos Recipe - QueRicaVida.com . My arms feel like I did an upper body workout yesterday.
I have another class this afternoon. And my bobbins will arrive today.
Mom got a dispensation for me when I had allergic problems as a kid and was instructed to not eat fish or cheese. I complained about it, but she remarked about people she had known when she was in nursing school who had two kitchens. I asked Msgr. last year about my problem with cow's milk, and he said that I have automatic dispensation to eat meat on Lenten Fridays.

Hi, Joan! So glad you posted. Also glad that you're enjoying retirement. I hope we hear more from you.
Jackie, I'm sure your SIL is glad to be employed and to be contributing to the family income. You must have missed my recent post about our successful trip home on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. We're settling in and marveling at all the space after a summer in the 5th wheel camper.
Petite, I'm envious that you have a dh who dances. Mine does not. We're like bumps on a log at wedding receptions.
I plan to go to the chair yoga class at the gym this afternoon. It will be so good to get back to my senior exercise classes at the YMCA, our home gym, so much more affordable than the Any Time Fitness in Park Rapids, MN.

I remember the morning that I first asked the meaning of the word "love. . . ." Miss Sullivan put her arm gently round me and spelled into my hand, "I love Helen." "What is love?" I asked. . . . "Love is something like the clouds that were in the sky before the sun came out," she replied. . . . "You cannot touch the clouds, you know; but you feel the rain and know how glad the flowers and the thirsty earth are to have it after a hot day. You cannot touch love either; but you feel the sweetness that it pours into everything. Without love you would not be happy or want to play." The beautiful truth burst upon my mind--I felt that these wereinvisible lines stretched between my spirit and the spirits of others.
Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose
fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same.0 -
I did miss your post first time around, Carole. I'm happy that you are back home safe and sound enjoying good weather and glorious space. Sometimes I think/wonder about a smaller house but realize I likely have a great size of house -- the issue is not well thought out storage. Not sure how the original owners managed to not only it seems do well, they had a son and daughter here with them. I think they were among the few non-hoarders that exist. Only having what was needed and nothing else period. Hoping to get closer to that.
More catch up today but I will get to be on a bit of a more relaxed pace which will be good for me. Still eyeing some things in the pantry I haven't made a decision about. I'm fortunate to have space in my storage shed -- so I may save myself for now and put those items in there and decide in Spring. Still glad though that I got sort of forced into " facing " my pantry. I had not realized how long it had been since I had the ability to successfully get in there and change things.
Going to have a warmer day today -- nearer 80 I think but then we will slip back to cooler. This is the time of yr. when we do have the inconcistent temps, but they aren't so wild as to be un-comfortable -- and no humidity so it is okay.
About time to wash my car again and will have to detail this time.
I hope you all have a reallly great day.

I don't think I will have any more canning to do this year, so I shelved all my jars (except the two empty quarts [air is quite tasty, you know]) sorted according to year and what is in them. Tossed all the boxes. The way I have been canning this year, you would open a box and find single jars of various items. If you want to try the tomatillo pickles, make a bunch of little bags for the spices and sew them shut. They are a nuisance for me with no lower denture.
But I have to get to work.

petite, I love it that you and DH danced! Sorry about the fall, thank goodness you weren’t hurt, but don’t stop dancing! Wondering how gracefully you both got back up? I remember laughing at my mother when she had difficulty getting up off the floor. I thought that was the dumbest thing, how could someone not get back up after sitting on the floor? Well, as they say, what goes around, comes around, and I am now the one who can’t get up easily AND now I don’t see anything dumb or humorous about it!
I can’t believe my surgery is less than a week away. Everything is coming together nicely. I just need to stay healthy, which is hard to do working in a germ factory aka, school! Honestly, seeing all the devastation in Florida, I am thankful I only have the problem I do, breast cancer. I can’t help but wonder how many in Florida have no home or a badly damaged home and also have cancer or some other serious ailment.
The sun is finally out today and it is gorgeous! Warm, 76! We had not one, but two fire drills at work today. One was planned, the second was accidental due to an issue with resetting the alarm. I have to admit, I didn’t mind going outside twice today!
I am so ready to retire

I am feeling "back at home" and it's a nice feeling. Yesterday the couple who cut our grass came by to get their check. They both are incredibly talkative and we spent an hour talking to them outside. Lila is my age and Tony is at least as old but they are busy five days a week with their lawn care business. I don't think they need the income but are industrious and say they like doing the work. She rides the zero turn mower and he does the weedeating.
I didn't make it to chair yoga but plan to go to the senior exercise at 11:30.
Mary, you do keep busy and I admire you for doing all you do.

Good morning. It is a lovely 53 degrees and I had a wonderful walk. We did not get hurt from the fall, just embarrassed. The rehab of the house is coming along, but I don't like the paint job. I have asked him to do another coat and he forgot to hang the bathroom mirror back. Since DH paid him, I doubt he will do it.

Who will tell whether one happy moment of love or the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning and smelling the fresh air is not worth all the suffering and effort that life implies?

petite1: Let's hope he is ethical enough to return and finish the job. He will want referrals so I would remind him that this could be the difference between a great versus a "so-so" one. Word of mouth works wonders. I don't pay until the job is finished and limit advances to 20-50% of the job total. Glad you were not hurt with your fall.
Finally the rain stopped yesterday and the sun came out. The yard is drying but there are still some muddy spots that are slippery. MY DB is here to do some house jobs for us and to install a new wooden screen (decorative) on the front porch. The one we currently have has seen better days and I can no longer find the expandable lattice I had used for that one. It is probably 20 years old or more so it owes us nothing but doesn't look nice with the new steps and walkway. I found the design in a magazine and he was able to recreate it using pressure treated lumber that I will allow to naturalize rather than paint. We have the log holder behind the screen so it is not visible from the walkway. I have some metal butterflies I will hang on the inside for decorations. They are not weather proof so they will be more protected on the interior porch side.
Waiting on daffodil bulbs so I can finish flower bed in the crescent by the stream. They were shipped from Holland and should be here in about a week. Once they are in I will mulch the area. Using coyote urine to keep the deer off the azaleas to give them a chance to grow. Will erect a fence around them once the mulch is down.
Regan goes to the vet on Monday for her final round of vaccines and I have a dental appointment next week. It's a shame when your social life is doctor/dental appointments. Need to address one more area for cleanup in the yard before winter. Have plenty of inside areas to address for days where it is too cold or rainy to work outside. Today is not one of them since it is sunny and going up to 75 before it cools down again tomorrow. Have a good day.
