    Sass.... I had the same problem one time with my prescription sun glasses.... allergic to that plastic. I even tried polishing them with clear polish.... I think that helped.

    Same with the little clear plastic things on my hearing aids.... My ears were swollen until they got used to them... I took Benadryl...... The audiologist gave me some "calm ear" to use also.... okay now though....

    Chevy thanks, you're always there :). That's what I meant by polyurethane --it's a particular plastic. I'm allergic to polyurethane. It's a long story how playing Sherlock Holmes worked out. I had hoped it wouldn't extend beyond the initial problem item. Now I can't risk it. I found a pair of glasses in my dress purse that may work until I can get some metal ones. They are so tight over the temples the glass portion stands in mid air. But they float down and I have to keep readjusting them or hold them up with one hand.. Plus, they are putting pressure on my crani scar. Always sumpin.

    Sassy, sorry to read you have an eyeglass problem, would the drugstore display of eyeglasses have any with metal frames and glass lenses??? Just a thought.

    Thanks for posting the link to that vid of the little boy. Brought tears to my eyes.

    Agree, people should do that with their dogs. If there is an accident, they will go flying, but I do see that happening here from time to time.

    Patty: woo hoo for cooking with son!!!

    And Spookie dog looks beautiful!!

  • mags. Lol. Six months to fix it without reminding them? I am not that easy going.

    Wren you're rocking it. Love these peanut pictures. Did I say I love Charlie Brown stuff by the way. Looking great

    Eyeore. - jump in often. Enough people talking about a variety of things. Something will relate to you.

    Chevy. Wow! Love it! I love Christmas lights! Christmas is my favorite holiday. Bet the neighbors are not too happy. So you save your dd day ? Hrhe she'd love that ha. Oh yeah by the way I don't see Sas groveling very much I do see her telling him how to make the spam.

    I had another good day. I went to town and got lab at the oncologist office. I went to Walmart and exchanged socks for my youngest for a bigger size. They grow so quick. I meant to take back some jeans of my oldest who were too big but Old Navy doesn't open until 10 and I was home by then with my shoes off. I'm still feeling well and I'm getting ready to make chili cheese dogs and french fries with the fruit salad for supper. I have several different fruits that are beginning to go bad so I think a fruit salad and some banana nut bread to use up some bananas will round off for supper. Many nights my back would not even have allowed me to stand long enough to make that simplest of a meal so I'm very thankful that today I can do that. Today it's my oldest son's chore to help prepare supper and set the table although he doesn't really like cooking he is taking home ec this year. He does OK at it he just doesn't like it.

    Hootie hoo for now

    Nothing wrong about boys in the kitchen. They all need to learn a little bit. Tell him to watch all the male chefs in tv!! Maybe he'll get inspired!! LOL. DH can cook, nothing fancy, but we wouldn't starve. I'm not much better. I like to bake. I'm going to make a TimTam cheesecake for Thanksgiving. It sounds yummy!

  • spooky. I'm going to tell him what is said about boys in the kitchen. Maybe it will inspire him. Right now he is most interested in starting a rock and roll band with his best friend. Last night he talked literally 4 hours with the boy. He has drums, guitars, & a keyboard up in his room but he doesn't know how to play any of it. Last night he asked the dh to begin to teach him how to play the drums. Something tells me it's about to get loud in my house. I may have to wear headphones for a while lol. Your cheesecake sounds yummy.

    Hootie hoo for now

    Patty, when my son went to Japan 16 years ago he asked me to write down his favorite recipes. Two of them were apple crumble and banana bread. His town had a festival and he made several batches of each to give out as samples. The ladies went crazy for them. Told him he should open a bakery and asked for the recipes. He had to get his (now) wife to help him convert the measurements to metric. I learned to cook from my dad. He was a much better cook than my mom.

    Ms. Wren, can't get to the link.

    You are welcome, Glennie. The father is my peep. There are many of us dispersed through out different countries because of the war. I feel for the Syrian people, but at the same time scare for this country because of the chanc of Isis terrorists coming in along with families seeking asylum.

    Thanks for the cute videos, Jazzy and Ms. CHEVY.

    Patty, ThumbsUp

    Went to see a fabulous young jazz performer by the name of Grace Kelly who plays horns and also has the most beautiful voice. What a night of music! I got to talk to her after, since we both play the same horns (alto and soprano sax). So fun to meet a rising star!

    Patty, can't sleep because you had too much fun with your boys or because of the chili cheese dog and fries

  • lol. Too much fun indeed. Ds1 did a great job following recipe instructions. Everyone pushed away from the table full.

    Sorry, I was in the shower. Try to get some sleep, my friend. Reserve the precious energy for the boys tomorrow. Good night. Don't stay up too late or you will be chatting with Ms. CHEVY soon. Sweet dreams.

    I'm so old I call flip flops thongs! my kids look at me weird when I ask if anyone has seen my thongs

  • chevy - they are calling forv snow already ? And 9 degrees? Brrr. Will you roast s big turkey to help heat up the house ? What kind of heat do you use ? Electric. Propane, natural gas, wood ????? We use a mix of electric and propane but when it gets that cold its propane time. We have a wall heater and those flames just heat us up immediately.

    I am awake to another great day. Feeling well. Today is the last day of school for the boys for 9 days. After school we are going to do some Jean shopping for ds1, I have to return the socks for ds2, we are going to hit the library to get some books to read while they are out, and then go to Baskin Robbins for a celebratory ice cream. So very happy to have them home all day with me. Now ask me again midweek and I'll probably be ready for them to go back to school and me get my nap on. Lol.
